    Bowl w/half lamb meatball & half roasted veggies
    Kyle Lee H.

    Tenth time at CAVA, and let me tell you, I ain't been the same since I ate at this place! First off, I love the addition of the chipotle style service instead of the workers preparing the food i. the back as I prefer to see all my fresh ingredients. On this occasion I ordered half lamb meatballs, half roasted veggies. You ever take a bite of something and immediately start planning your next visit?! The lamb meatballs? Juicy, flavorful, with that perfect char on the outside--somebody's Mediterranean grandma is definitely in the kitchen whispering secrets. And the roasted veggies? Whew. Perfectly seasoned, slightly caramelized, and adding just the right amount of freshness to balance it all out. Every forkful was giving earthy, smoky, and just-right spicy all in one bite. Then let's talk about the toppings. CAVA is really out here letting you customize your masterpiece, and I didn't hold back. Harissa? Yes. Tzatziki? SAY LESS! A little crazy feta to tie it all together? Don't ask me twice. Every bite was a little different, but ALL of them were hitting. Moral of the story? 10/10. Will I be back? You might catch me in line tomorrow.

    Hair in my bowl that is NOT mine
    Christian M.

    I eat CAVA often and I've never had a bad experience until today. I was eating my bowl and pulled a long black strand of hair out of my mouth! This is unacceptable! CAVA needs to have better cleaning standards. Please do not eat at this location. This is my last time! For all those who ask the silly question of what if it's yours, it's not! My hair is coily and tightly curled, not long and stringy.

    Harissa honey chicken !!

    I frequent this location a lot since it's near home. The service and quality of the food is always above par! The team members and management are always super friendly and very professional! The dining area has a great ambiance to it. I come pretty often that even the store manager Pablo knows me by name now! Makes you want to come back each time :-)

    Messy chicken Shawarma sandwich.

    I thought I would like the idea of CAVA table but this place is sloppy. The menu is black and white, printed off the office copier, and taped to the Covid barrier left over from the pandemic. Stacks of beverages are just sitting on the floor behind the counter. I dared not peak into the kitchen even though it's an open layout. This is a small location. Even so, they'll give you a numbered beeper so they can locate you when bringing out your food. Drinks options are limited but it appears they may want to have a coffee bar? I was offered lemonades, shakes, or canned beverages by the gentleman taking the order. I opted for the lemonade, which was very good. Cava table allows you to build your own bowl but unlike normal Cava... you pick from menu without seeing. I opted for a chicken Shawarma sandwich. It was overstuffed and sloppy. There was as much oil on the outside as inside the sandwich so I had to eat it with a fork. Uncomfortable seats, matched with sticky tables,and less than desirable food; this will be my one and only visit to cave table in Woodbridge

    Mocha espresso and falafel sandwich
    Kelly M.

    Dropped my better half off at IKEA and went off to run errands. They were not finished shopping and I wanted to wait somewhere comfortably and read a book until they were done. CAVA had good reviews and *bonus* had espresso drinks so I tried it out. First up was the Moroccan Day Dreamer Latte. No joke when they dropped it off with the greenery floating in it I thought I made a major mistake - but it was good. Really good. Fragrant delicious spices in just the right balance. Mmmm! Some time later I received a message saying my avid shopper was taking a break and snacking, so I did too. This time I tried a chocolate mocha latte and a falafel sandwich. The falafel isn't really a sandwich, it comes in a really thick pita-like wrap which is kind of dense, and it's missing something for me - feta cheese? Tsatziki sauce? But really the entire sandwich was seriously impressive for $10.45. The mocha was good but I missed the lovely flavors of the Moroccan latte. I think this is my first CAVA experience. If it isn't, it's the first one I remember. I'm now a fan!

    Food was delicious! Got two plates- one with steak and one with falafel

    I love this place & concept! Has so much potential and believe it or not- you can order a normal cava bowl. Great service

    Undercooked Spicy Lamb Meatballs

    I came to Cava yesterday and ordered the Harissa chicken and the spicy lamb meatball. After I had taken a couple of the bites of the lamb meatballs I realized that they were nasty and completely uncooked. Later that night I ended up getting severely sick and realized I had gotten food poisoning. The GM gave me a refund only for the bowl but I feel I should have been refunded for the whole meal since I barely ate any of it and ended up vomiting and on the toilet for hours after that meal. cava was the only thing that I ate yesterday so I KNOW it was them. The GM was very nice but I feel like he did not care nor did he accept that they had undercooked the meatballs. He told me that the red I was seeing was just from the spice. Attached is a picture for your own judgment. This is a really nice location with nice workers but unfortunately this will be my last time eating cava because of this.

Overall, if chicken kabobs were on the Cheesecake Factory menu, this version would be on the skinnylicious menu for those counting calories and preferring a healthier less indulgent version since flavors seem muted and textures appear lacking due to insufficient oil/grease.

It's a small mart that specializes in middle eastern Mediterranean cuisine and ingredients. They place does not have seating inside, but plenty of seating outside. So plan on either take out or picnicking. They make the food right as you order so things are fresh. The part I really liked about this place was that the sauces were not overly salted - to increase shelf life - and the amount of oil/butter was not overly used to try to mask the ingredients. It's more on the "let the ingredients speak for itself" which I really dig. In the end, you don't feel heavy after the meal and you feel like you had a hearty and healthy meal. My favorite was the lamb shawarma. He toasts the outside pita and it gives it a nice crunch. The lamb is fresher than other places and he doesn't over season it to hide the lamb smell. Other places - if you notice - tends to use cumin a lot of mask the lamb smell. Not here though. The falafel sandwich was okay. It was colder than the lamb shawarma. But the falafels were made right there in front of you. I got the sujuk sandwich too (which is a type of sausage). It was a breakfast burrito basically. Our order took 20 mins to make and he makes it right when you order. So be prepared to stay there and peruse around. Some ingredients there were interesting. The one thing that caught my eye was a bottle of pomegranate molasses. He sells it close to 50% what Harris Teeter would charge and he has various brands of pomegranate molasses. I use pomegranate molasses to make grenadine for cocktails. Also has orange blossom and rose water (also both used for cocktails) I like this place and the guy is nice and sweet.
