Okay, first visit finally completed. Was i disappointed? Absolutely not. The staff were so friendly and helpful. The selection was wonderful, the portions were great, and the taste was phenomenal. Greek chicken pita hold the olives for me -- delicious Blueberry lavender drinky drink delectable No insane sugar spike for this 34 week pregnant type 1 diabetic, so it's a win for me in that aspect too. The food and drink selection were wonderful. Plenty of space to dine in without feeling like you're crowded up on everyone else as well which is always nice Go check them out! read more

I've been a big fan of CAVA for a long time, but lately it feels like they're starting to fall off. The food quality is still top-tier--the ingredients are fresh, the flavors are on point, and everything tastes great. Unfortunately, the portions have become noticeably smaller while the prices keep climbing. One of the things that made CAVA stand out was getting a filling, healthy meal that felt worth every dollar. Now, it seems like they're cutting back on the amount of food, which takes away from the overall experience. I still enjoy eating here because the quality is excellent, but I hope they get back to the generous portions that made so many people loyal customers. read more

Wow, the food here was great. I got a bowl with grilled chicken then you get a grain (basmati rice for me) and then toppings and other items....the only thing I can say that wasn't great was the long queue to get the food. That last part is not CAVA's fault, unless you can fault them for being so good that people stand in line to eat there. read more

Cava has really gone downhill in the last 2 years. In 2024, I would have given this place 5 stars. But for how expensive it is, it's not worth it. I went 2 days ago and the rice was hard. Which is ridiculous, make the rice fresh. They also were out of ingredients like cucumbers. This was the first time I ate cava and was still hungry afterwards. I'm done coming here. read more

Stopped in for lunch a few weeks ago and created my own bowl-which was delicious! I arrived before noon, and noticed a huge increase in traffic starting at that 12:00 hour. I'm not sure what was happening, but the staff and dining room were a bit disheveled. They didn't look short staffed, but maybe just frazzled. I had to ask for a few items multiple times, the drink station hadn't been cleaned, and there were large boxes sitting around. Parking can be tricky due to volume but save yourself and park in the back lot of the bank! read more

I was so looking forward to this bowl, only to be disappointed. $16 to be salty and missing ingredients is wild! There wasn't a cucumber in sight or cabbage slaw... What happened!? I ordered ahead online, arrived a few minutes before the pickup time but I only waited a few minutes. I hope they didn't rush because I was there. They were pretty busy as it was lunch time but no excuses. Also, I thought the bowl besides missing ingredients was pretty low as well, not even filled to the top! read more

I always enjoy my meal when I come to this CAVA location! The staff was very kind! They had run out of saffron rice, and they continued to let me go down the line and gave me a side of it for free! I also feel like the portions are very large. I typically can get the kid's pita meal and still have leftovers! I would highly recommend coming to CAVA if you need something quick and easy! read more

Cava is a whole love language for me. My go to is the greens and grains bowl and I'll always get extra garlic sauce. Their toppings make me feel like I'm being healthy and I love the variety. The feisty feta is to die for and their tzatziki is some of the best. The honey harissa chicken is the perfect level of spice and the free pita? Sign me right up. I love the homemade drinks and the convenience of ordering online to go. read more

cava has always been one of my favorite restaurants! it's fresh mediterranean style food is so tasty and the flavors blend well together every time i get a bowl! i always get half brown rice and half black lentils and i add lots of yummy toppings, including the traditional hummus, red pepper hummus, and roasted eggplant dip. they have fiery broccoli, persian cucumber, cabbage slaw, and so many other options! they also have falafel grilled chicken, harissa honey chicken, braised, lamb for protein. the dressings are also mini! my go to is the hot harissa vinaigrette, but they also have yogurt dill, skug, Greek vinaigrette, lemon herb tahini and a date vinaigrette. i always get the side pita that comes with the meal. mama and i each got a bowl that was enough food for two meals each and our total was only $27 and change! the prices here are excellent! the service is top-notch and the food is spectacular and scrumptious! there is always lively music playing in the background. of course there was a line as we expected as this place has the best mediterranean food in town! the ambience is not high class at all as it's a casual dining spot with wooden tables and chairs and benches. I highly recommend you give CAVA a try if you haven't already! The employees are super friendly and kind. read more

After two visits (1 pita, 1grain bowl), I figured out what I wanted to put together here - a grain bowl with: 1/2 Rice 1/2 Lentils 1/2 Falafel 1/2 Meatballs Pickled Onions Cucumber & Tomato Brined Pickles Feta Tzatziki Harissa Pita Side sauces: Shkug, Yogurt Dill This made up what I'd been looking for - the right combination of tastes and textures, with the sauces and dips suppling a nice mixture of heat, cool, and flavors. The rice and lentils as the base mixed well together, increasing in flavor as the sauces and dips were mixed in. The spicy meatballs were very good, while the falafel was rather bland on its own, but again the sauces and dips helped considerably. The brined pickles and pickled red onions brought a definite sharpness to the bowl, softened somewhat by the tomato and cucumber mixture. The sauces and dips were all excellent. The pita as a side was small and much better than the large one on the wrap, and it had a nice outside crunch. And the service was particularly nice on this visit. I don't know that I necessarily felt healthier after this bowl, but I certainly felt satisfied! Ambiance - 3.5 Food - 4.5 Service - 4 Value - 4 read more

I recently ordered a grain bowl from Cava on DoorDash with arugula, chicken, black lentils, and a variety of toppings/dressings. It arrived and looked bare at first, it seemed like the toppings might have been layered on the bottom, which made it a bit tricky to enjoy as intended. Honestly, Cava is just okay for me. This was my second time trying it, and while it's not bad, I don't feel like it lives up to the hype. To be fair, maybe my topping and dressing choices might not have been the best combination this time around. For now, I'd say it's fine if you're looking for something light and customizable, but it's not my favorite. read more

Loved coming here for a quick dinner after going to the gym! The food at CAVA is always so filling and nutritious and this particular one is in a convenient location on Stratford Road. Depending on the time of day the parking can be a little crowded in that shopping plaza, but cars come in and out so frequently I haven't had a problem! The indoor space itself is larger than it looks, and there is plenty of seating if you want to dine in. I usually take it to go though! The service here is always fantastic, they are quick and efficient in getting people through the line, and always have all the toppings filled and ready to go so I haven't had to wait for anything. Will definitely be coming back! read more

I love CAVA! WHen it first opened in my area in Raleigh, I was there almost every day. I am a frequent visitor to Cava, and I love it so much. I used to live in Winston Salem for 3 years while I attended Community College there and there was no Cava, but I love that there is one now! I always build my own bowl, and it's always great. I did a to-go order for pickup. It was very crowded when I went in, and they were out of lids for cups, and straws, so I just took my drink without those things - no big deal, and drank it on the way home. The cucumber mint lemonade was delicious! I did order a free pita, and an extra pita with tzatziki sauce on the side. They gave me the sauce, but no pita. :( It was so crowded, it was not worth asking for a refund. Otherwise, everything tasted great. Will definitely be back whenever I am back in town. read more

Tera provided excellent service at CAVA! She was friendly, welcoming, and made sure everything was prepared just right. Her positive attitude and attention to detail really stood out and made the experience even better. Great customer service like hers definitely keeps me coming back! read more

Cava has a very relaxed, somewhat hip vibe to it, and their food is always high quality and consistent. It's Subway-style (choose your own ingredients) but I hate making decisions under pressure, so you can just choose from the menu overhead, and you're pretty much guaranteed to get a flavorful dish that is chef chosen. I come here all the time with friends, especially because some of them have dietary restrictions, including being gluten-free. It's great for that. If you come often, you can get the app that has its own reward system. Free healthy and tasty food! Just be aware that it gets busy at dinner time, so you could be waiting a while. If you do have the app though, you can sort of beat the system by ordering on the app and picking up your food and then sitting down. read more

I've been wanting to try Cava for a long time and was finally in a city that had one! Think Chipotle but Mediterranean with wayyy more options and better. I got the Spicy Greens bowl that was chock full of veggies, dips, and falafel - so yum. The bowls come with set combinations of ingredients but you can ask them to add on any additional toppings (like tomatoes, feta, cucumbers, etc) for no extra charge. The ambiance inside is contemporary with soft lighting, feels very calming. Great for a quick, healthy meal! read more

Came in today while running errands before the storm a commith....smelled so good when I walked in. U can pick from vegan bowls to high protein as well. They have grain bowls and you can various pita sandwiches. You can also opt to build your own. I went with Greek salad and it was great. Ingredients were high quality with tzatziki, hummus, grilled chicken, kalamata Olives and a wonderful vinaigrette that tasted so fresh. My son got the grain bowl and I tried a bite and loved it. Very healthy Mediterranean heart healthy option. Come here guys. read more

Food is great. Just not easy to work with if any issues with an order. Management was contacted and a satisfactory solution escaped us as we were unwilling to drive back 30 minutes to fix the order. No worries, plenty of other options on the commute home. read more

Love this fast casual option for Greek food! They have a ton of options for you to choose from and everything is so flavorful. I went with the salad bowl (which they also have several options to choose from for this) and ended up getting half chicken half falafel which was great because my 17month old had my falafel and there was still plenty of chicken for me to eat. They have a wide variety of dips, veggies, toppings and dressings to choose from too. I absolutely LOVE their spicy feta dip and highly recommend it if you like a little kick, it tastes so good with their pita. I highly recommend checking out this spot if you love Greek food! The service was great and I love the outdoor seating option at this location. read more

Very good service, nice employees, always clean Sonoyva was really good! definitely recommend this location

Cava is one of many places like this in town that offers a build your own bowl meal. You walk up to the counter, choose your base, protein, sauces, dip, veggies then sit down and hope it's good. Cava is one of those places I suggest when others in my party have diet restrictions. I have some friends and relatives that are vegan, vegetarian or are on Keto diets. I love to share a meal with them so Cava works for times like this. Would I choose Cava for myself, not usually. The service is just ok but every time I've gone there it seems like no one enjoys working there and they are all miserable. Not a single smile on anyone. This last visit I decided to try the sweet and spicy chicken they were promoting. I decided to make mine into a bowl with. A salad base instead of a pita wrap. I asked them to make it just how it comes but just without the pita. As they were building it, I was asked a couple times if I wanted this or that on it. I repeated that I just wanted it how it comes. I sat down with my salad and and hoped it was tasty. It was good at first. A little saucy for my preference but still good, but as I got down to the bottom of the bowl the sauces just took over and I just couldn't eat another bite of the same flavor again. The sweet and spicy chicken wasn't either of those flavors to me. It was more just seasoned with the Mediterranean flavors one comes to expect from this type of restaurant. I really want to like this place because it's a healthy option but maybe I just prefer more varied tastes and textures to my meals. I am a foodie and love trying unique and different things. Unfortunately Cava just doesn't fit those needs for me. I'll still eat here on occasion but I'm not going to suggest it. read more

If you're a fan of Mediterranean flavors and love customizing your meals, Cava is the spot for you. Think of it as the Mediterranean version of Moe's, where you can pick and choose your toppings and create your perfect bowl or salad. With options like saffron basmati rice, a variety of fresh veggies, flavorful dips, and a range of proteins, the possibilities are endless.One of the things I love most about Cava is the ability to mix and match. Whether I'm in the mood for something light and fresh or hearty and satisfying, I can always create a meal that hits the spot. And let's be real--it's so good that I could eat it every day.But here's the catch: if you're planning to visit during lunchtime, be prepared for a crowd. The place gets packed, and for a good reason. That's why I usually try to hit it up during off-peak hours when things are a bit calmer. Still, even when I end up going during the lunch rush, it's worth it. The food is just that good.So, if you're looking for a fresh, customizable, and delicious meal, give Cava a try. Just be ready to brave the lunchtime crowd, or take my advice and go a little earlier or later to enjoy your meal in peace. read more

Checked it out, then looked at the nutrition info. Extremely high in sodium. Big no go. It's not really healthy for many

So disappointing when we came for dinner @ 6:30 - we were used to having a line but we waited in line for almost 30 minutes! It seemed they were either understaffed or just new untrained staff; When we got to the counter they were out of pickled onions, salad dressing, falafel & lamb. We ordered the steak salad & chicken & rice bowl, which was fine. The other in our party ordered a lamb pita & they made it fresh, however the lamb was raw when biting into it. All in all a disappointment, we are not sure we will return again. read more

Went for the first time and ordered a bowl with lamb (which is several dollars more expensive), and I received a scoop of meat that was 2-3 bites worth for an entire bowl and was still up-charged. I then had to ask for "extra" of the toppings in order to get more than a tiny spoonful. This was a salad with rice, not a filling, protein-based bowl. Unfortunate for how expensive it was. Would not recommend, and would've appreciated a discount for the minuscule meat I paid extra for. read more

It's quick, healthy, awesome menu variation but most important delicious! Service was friendly. Love the better drink options. read more

Cava is the first place I think of when I'm in need of something quick, healthy, and good. We over indulged this past weekend at the beach and by the time we got back into town it was pretty late on Sunday. We didn't have any groceries to cook so Cava came to the rescue! I love their build your own bowl concept with grains or greens. You can also get a pita if you feel inclined! My personal favorite is the greens bowl and I pile that sucker high with allllll the toppings. The crazy feta dip is my absolute favorite and don't skip the warm pita! I've recently discovered an infatuation with the yogurt dill dressing - it's fresh tasting, low calorie and GOOD. Big fan of Cava and I'm blessed there's one right around the corner from my house. read more

I've never been huge on chain restaurants but this place is really good. I will say the portions are fuller when you dine in versus when you take out. Everything is fresh. Service is in point. Pretty chill aesthetic. They do have nice outside seating. The parking lot is very very busy. Be careful. The drink options are phenomenal! Plenty of options for vegetarians and meat eating friends. read more

Love this place!.....casual, so many choices, patio seating, fresh everything. What's not to like? Pretty busy at lunch, order your food at the counter, you can make your own bowls or order one of the others on the menu. For $10 you get a lot of food and flavor, I got mixed super salad, some saffron basmati rice, and black lentils, then added grilled chicken,tzatziki, red pepper hummus, cucumbers, onions, tomatoes, hot pepper rings, yogurt dill sauce. You get a pita on the side too. My friend made up her own bowl too and said the lemon dill sauce was excellent. Every bite is full of flavor, all fresh ingredients. And all healthy. Such a great location too. Parking can be hard to find when busy. Very clean location too and super friendly staff. I will not have to be dragged back here for sure, can't wait to go back. read more

Cava is the place to get a fresh, delicious, meal that satisfies your taste buds in the best way. The food is reasonably priced, and the portions are a good size. I also appreciate the fact that they play light music that is not too loud, and still loud enough to hear over the voices of people talking. The only reason I give it four stars is because the service is not super fast. However, if you are in a hurry, an online pickup order will be perfect for you. read more
