Expensive for what it is. Portion size OK. Subpar dining room compared to Flatiron Mezeh. Portions seems to be better there and even tastier food. More drink options as well and cleaner there in flatiron.

The chicken was seasoned well, it tasted good on its own and as part of the admittedly busy bowl of stuff. Other standouts were the rice, the cucumbers, and the tzatziki sauce. The harissa was okay, not the most fresh or spicy that I've had. And I could go either way with the corn. But the dish was definitely hearty and a good value overall, I can see myself ordering again for a consistent meal with healthyish ingredients.

In the past several years they've expanded their presence around Manhattan and their success lies in providing consistently tasty Lebanese-inspired, Middle Eastern/Mediterranean style dishes in an easily understandable bowl format. While not my first time trying Naya, this was the first time I've ordered from this location and I was happy overall with the food I got! The cucumber tomato salad was on point, the pickled red cabbage was briny in a good way, the hummus and baba ghanoush were creamy and flavorful. The falafel unfortunately were on the denser, drier side though not completely inedible, I had to take a bite of it with other items. Portion-wise the bowl was enough for a meal and a half for me. The staff was helpful at this location, I ordered online then when I came to pick up I was a little early and didn't see my order on the pick up shelves. They asked me for my info to follow up with the prep (and initially there was some confusion as to whether they had received my order though it was sorted out expediently) and the staff passed my food directly to me once it was ready.

I have been meaning to try Cava since it became a publicly traded stock, and I actually made a few…read moredollars on a brief investment before even trying the restaurant. I have been a fan of Chipotle, Dig, and other similar eateries where you walk along a line of counters with various foods as ingredients which you select to combine into a custom bowl of your choosing. The cuisine might be categorized as Mediterranean. This "fast casual" seemed to be similar to Dig, but the flavors are all their own, and they are very, very good. I had a choice of either greens or lentils on top of my base of brown rice, and for a small upcharge you can have both. I mentioned to the server at this Cava location that this was new to me, and it would have been helpful if I had gotten some guidance on what I would order without being upcharged above the base order. There are small tags at the tops of each toppings section, noting how many of each before getting upcharged. I found out that it pays to do your research before buying. You also get small pieces of pita along with the order if you ask. The seasoning in the steak, in the chicken, and just about everything is all new to me, and I must say, all delicious. What little bit of spiciness was there was not too much. The portion size was generous so I foubd it to be a good value. Depending on how hungry you are it could stretch out to cover two meals. This being my first time trying I am hesitant to award five stars. Maybe I need to come back.

I loved how customizable it was so it could be catered to one's dietary restrictions! From my choices, I loved the Saffron Basmati Rice, the Skhug, the pickled onions, and the grilled chicken. However, one thing we noticed right away was that we all ordered the roasted eggplant dip and NONE of us had it in our bowls. That was disappointing to say the least, but other than that we enjoyed our Cava bowls. For me, the bowl was enough for 2 meals! Service was quick and fast! I think everything was great except our 3 missing eggplant dips in our bowls. That's why I decided to give 4 stars instead of 5. Otherwise, perfect!

Their ingredients are usually good, and I've been satisfied with the handful of times I've ordered takeout from their FiDi location. Overall, I don't seek them out as often as some other spots, because the bone broth rice tastes like a salt lick to me. I get that it may have some health benefits, but as with any fast casual dining experience, a "healthy" veneer doesn't mean much when I'm ingesting three days' worth of recommended daily sodium in a few spoonfuls of orange rice. Good spot for savory dishes, with an interesting variety of options on the menu. Just don't think you're being "healthy" by ordering from here!

You must order via the app, the one human in the front will not take your order. They do have a few people in the back loading the machines up with food.

There was not enough dressing even though I asked for extra dressing. It tasted like expensive, dry soulless sustenance. This is not the sweet green I remembered from around 10 years ago. I don't think I will be back.

Potbelly has over past couple decades has really expanded cross-country, I recall trying them many years ago for the first time and being impressed by their tasty variety and consistency. Back then (lol I am aging myself) sandwiches were also in the realm of $7-8 each so it was easy to pick one up for lunch more often. That being said today's prices of $11.99-13.49+tax still run in the more affordable range compared to lunch options in the area, and their sandwich size is quite enough for a filling meal. I ordered online via the website which involves signing up for an account, and it's straightforward to select the location and place your order. The inside of the store is pretty standard to other Potbelly's locations, kinda like a Panera with more of a saloon western vibe. My order was ready in 10 minutes and like aforementioned, held behind the counter and passed to me. My Sweet Heat Pork BBQ sandwich was good, a combination of bbq pork, lettuce, tomato, caramelized onions, mayo and sweet red peppers. The bread was kinda in between hearty and soft, held up moderately to the moisture from the sandwich ingredients, could've been a little better. The sandwich was on the messier side to eat bc of the multiple more finely cut up items though once I wrapped a napkin around it was ok. Will be back given the above sandwich offer and will look forward to trying something new then!

Looking at options in FiDi on Yelp, Potbelly Sandwich Shop was one of the first options to show up! I haven't been to a Potbelly before, so I decided to try it! Walking into the Potbelly Sandwich Shop, I was surprised at how large the restaurant was! There is plenty of table seating available to be able to sit down and enjoy your meal if you want to! It was quite open and spacious! The art on the wall was pretty cool to look at, too! There are a few different areas where you can view the menu. Their menu consists of a sandwich with different styles of meats such as turkey, ham, pepperoni, steak, and so much more! You can also customize your sandwich if you want to! I decided to get a pre-selected option, the Pizza Melt. The Pizza Melt had pepperoni, old-world capicola, crumbled meatball, marinara sauce, and Italian seasonings. I omitted the mushrooms! The skinny size was $8.49, and with an additional $5.49 add-on, you can make it a meal with a side of chips with bottled soda. I didn't see a fountain machine at this location. For the side chips, I picked out the Salt & Vinegar with a Pellegrino water. Since it was my first time at Potbelly, the team member who was making my sandwich was quite helpful, walking me through the process of selecting the sandwich and if I wanted to customize it any further. He let me know where I needed to go to pay for the order! I didn't eat inside, but I brought the sandwich back to the hotel. The meal traveled well! It was still hot by the time I got it back to the hotel room. The sandwich was delicious! You could taste the Capicola and Pepperoni. I didn't get too much flavoring of the meatballs, but you could tell that there were plenty inside the sandwich! The bread was perfectly toasted and fresh! It was a great experience! If I'm in the area again and looking for a quick bite to eat, I'd stop by Potbelly again.
