It's not just about the food, the atmosphere and the staff are unbeatable. It's something about just being here allows me to think and not OVER THINK, quiet the noise, and just exist in a space that welcomes me in gently, kindly, and smiling faces everywhere, the food is a PLUS!!!!!!! If you need a happy place and a space to just sit and be welcomed in, no matter what you days is or has been, you are safe here :) I am grateful for the staff and how I am treated when I'm here is just unmatched. https://www.tripadvisor.com/ShowUserReviews-g34618-d33064885-r1074145257-Flower_Child-Sarasota_Florida.html#

We started with the Green Chile Queso. We really enjoyed it and were pleasantly surprised at how it tasted for being vegetarian. My husband got the "Forbidden" Rice bowl, and I got a build your own with shrimp, cauliflower risotto, and broccoli. Our entrees were tasty, thoughtfully made and curated, and light like we were hoping for. I did leave hungry though, but if you have the appetite of a normal person you'll be fine. The locale was bright and fresh feeling, in theme with the food, and the staff was alright. I am sure I will be back.

This is quick service. You order your custom salad or açaí bowl. To be honest... I felt…read moreoverwhelmed ordering like I just wanted a simple menu. I had no idea they combined two franchises in one. It makes ordering complicated. Funny thing is I custom ordered my kids sandwiches... and guess what, they came to the table all wrong. The server told me the turkey sandwich only comes this way and it cannot be customized. Well I ordered it custom and they didn't say a thing to me then. In the end, they made it right. For the price point for a salad, I thought I'd be getting something more than iceberg lettuce. It should be green leaf or romaine or something actually green and nutritious. Disappointed. I won't be coming back for a salad here. The ambiance is basic. It was clean, had a few tables, and good for those wanting a quick in and out experience.

The chicken was alright at first but then I could tell soon enough that it was pretty salty. I didn't care for the additional sauce options. I chose a white balsamic vinaigrette and a garlic aioli which is so much garlic. Customer service was fine they answered all my questions on what everything was. There's no labels or signs that say what the item is. Unless u follow the menu word for word which is not possible when u have to decide faster.

Everything from having a gloves directly touching my food (thumbs in my food specifically) to rude and unsimpathetic management, to incorrect charges on my bill. The food is good. Best Mac and cheese ever. Unfortunately energy needs to shift. I'd start with a fresh manager and team and have an owner overseeing this facility more closely. It doesn't live up to the original location in Tampa. Update 6/3/26: came in to give another try. 3 fingers with gloves in my food as I was being served. I told the gentleman and he said "we have gloves on" as he was touching his screen for the order snd counter with the same gloves . Gloves mean nothing. I chose to leave and not eat here. Such a disappointment that they are so careless with cleanliness even after the issue has been ongoing and they have been made aware of it. Also if a customer is not happy with gloves I'm the food, you probably should just offer to replace the bowl and make it right but the employees don't care. *Owners take note* unfortunately your management doesn't care and you won't be aware of this ongoing issue.

When we asked the teachers what they would enjoy for a special snack during recess coverage, every single one said 3 Natives. Patrick, the owner, was wonderful to work with and made the entire process so easy. His team carefully prepared 7 beautiful acai bowls and 3 smoothies exactly to the teachers' requests, and everything was ready right on time when I arrived for pickup. They even added ice to my cooler to help keep everything fresh and cold for delivery, which was such a thoughtful touch. The acai bowls looked like edible art -- absolutely gorgeous and packed with fresh ingredients. While I was there, I grabbed myself a Pump smoothie, and it was delicious -- the perfect complement to my morning workout. I was especially impressed by how friendly and efficient the staff was. My smoothie was finished before I had even completed checking out for the teachers' order! The shop itself is spotless, welcoming, and has amazing AC, which is such a gift in the Florida heat. Every experience I've had at 3 Natives has been fantastic, and this one truly went above and beyond. Highly recommend!

We were seated right away. It was the 5 o'clock hour and by the time we left it was getting pretty busy. They have tons of tvs showing sports and the bar is set apart but the noise level is pretty loud. Our waitress was super attentive and had our drinks to us quickly. After ordering the food was brought out pretty fast as well and everything was delicious! I had the smash burger and it was cooked perfectly. My husband and dad had the cheesesteaks and enjoyed them. My mom really loved the veggie wrap and we started with a yummy tray of nachos! The prices are comparable with other places. My favorite was the dipping sauce for the fries!! We will definitely be making another visit!

It is in a very busy shopping center but you can find parking all around. When you enter inside the establishment you are greeted immediately by staff and it was certainly bustling. They are very patient when you are deciding on what you want and even explained the flavors for each entree. It was very easy to order. Lots of seating inside and outside and once we found a seat it was quite clean. The food itself was portioned perfectly and the flavors were very prominent. I ordered sweet potato noodles, rice, bbq chicken and sweet potatoes and topped it with green sauce. Everything was delicious that I almost licked my plate clean.

I ordered pick up from this Cava location at 7pm on a Friday night. I was pleasantly surprised to see that there was ample parking, including 2 dedicated spots to picking up food from Cava! I received text updates, so I knew my order was ready and went in to retrieve it. The restaurant was pretty empty and my food was placed in a bag on the pick-up shelf, so I wouldn't have to wait in the line, even though it was short - super convenient! It wasn't until I got home that I noticed that I didn't recieve the pita chips I ordered, even though it was listed on my bag. The food itself was delish. Fresh flavours and the lamb was very juicy.

Customer Service Is Absolutely Terrible - save yourself the aggravation and stay away!…read more I've never experienced customer service this careless and unprofessional at a restaurant. I called ahead specifically to place an order and make things easier, but the employee who answered the phone immediately told me to "order it online." I was driving at the time, so that wasn't an option. She then rushed me through the order and sounded like she couldn't wait to get me off the phone. When I asked when the order would be ready, she simply said, "Not very long." No actual time. Nothing useful. I asked if she needed my name for the order, and she said, "We'll figure it out when you get here." I also asked if I could provide payment information over the phone and was told, "Pay it when you get here." Since someone else was picking up the food for me, this created a completely unnecessary inconvenience. The entire reason I called ahead was to place the order, know when it would be ready, and have someone pick it up for me without having to stand around waiting. And then it got even worse. The person picking up my food arrived approximately 45 minutes after I placed the order and was told, "WE DON'T HAVE YOUR ORDER!!!" Are you kidding me? So I called ahead, placed the order, was given virtually no useful information, couldn't pay in advance, she wouldn't take my name for the order, and then 45 minutes later the person I sent to pick it up was told they didn't even have the order. That is an unbelievable failure in basic customer service and order management. At this point, I have to seriously question whether the employee even properly entered the order in the first place. If your system doesn't provide customers with a pickup time, doesn't allow payment over the phone, doesn't take a name for the order, and then can't even locate the order when someone arrives to pick it up, what exactly is the point of calling ahead? The employee's attitude from the very beginning made it seem like my business was an inconvenience. Unfortunately, the experience proved that impression was justified. Management needs to seriously address the way customers are being treated. Good food doesn't make up for terrible service, poor communication, and an order that apparently disappears into thin air. If this employee doesn't want to deal with customers, perhaps she should be moved to a position where she doesn't have to or just be fired! Because based on this experience, she certainly doesn't seem interested in helping them. I will not be calling ahead again, and based on this experience, it's unlikely that I will give this amateur hour show another penny of my money! Shameful!
