Very good bowls, similar to Sweet Green and the like. A bit expensive as you could expect. Their A/C was out so it was pretty hot in there, but still good food. They also have Maine Root soda

The food was reaaally tasteful, but I felt a bit bad afterwards but I think that's because I still wasn't adjusted to US food and water. The service was amazing and I think this is among the healthiest places in Boston you can eat, and actually not hate the food whilst.

Stopped by the CAVA across from my Boston office and had an awesome experience. The place was really welcoming (and spotless!)... I was greeted with a smile as soon as I walked up to the glass. Kenia’s service was incredible; she nailed exactly what I was craving and helped me build the perfect bowl. The mix of spicy, sweet, and savory was spot on. Loved it! Can’t wait to come back.

We were very disappointed with our food after having seen the great rating CAVA has on Google maps. I got the spicy lamb and avocado chef bowl and while most ingredients were nice and fresh, overall the flavor combination was a mess in my opinion. What made it much worse was 1. having to eat the hard black lentils that didn't appear to be cooked at all and detracted from the rest of the meal and 2. biting into a lamb meatball that didn't look fully cooked. My partner's meal wasn't much better because her pita and the paper wrap were no match for the runny dressing that came pouring out of it while she ate. Also, it was the chicken schwarma dish and the chicken was dry and under seasoned. Maybe this was an off day or maybe they have better options but this was our first time there and we had high expectations from the reviews and came away very disappointed.

I went in almost at closing, and the store was filled with great energy and an amazing staff. I especially want to thank the night team — Wilson, Marta, Fabian, and especially Elio — who really took care of me and walked me through all the selections. I highly, highly recommend this amazing Cava location — the best one I’ve been to here in Boston!

Built my own bowl with saffron rice, braised lamb (which is halal), tzatziki, crazy feta, corn, pickled onions, cabbage slaw, and lemon herb tahini

This was so good! I have heard a lot about CAVA and this was my first time trying it. I ordered ahead and picked it up. I built my own bowl with harissa honey chicken because everyone raves about it. There was a nice kick to the bowl and the flavors were really good. Everything paired really nicely together. I also liked how I could get the dressings on the side. This was a super filling bowl and definitely worth the money! Would get it again and again.

This review has been in my drafts for a while now so it's only right to finally post it. This was my first time trying Cava, as I was on my way back home after a long day at work. The Cava location on summer street was extremely clean and the servers were very nice and attentive upon our entrance. As a first timer I opted for a bowl with half greens and half rice. For the proteins I went with the falafel, as I am a no meat eater. Just like chipotle you get to use s variety of toppings and veggies. Some of the ones I highly recommend are the picked cucumbers, pickled onions and the corns which we're extremely delicious. Something that I really liked about Cava is that you get to pick your sauces, their Greek yogurt sauce and hummus were so good and definitely made a difference in the taste of my bowl. I do not completely remember how much I paid for the bowl but it must have been around 12$, and on top of that I I clicked a side of their fried pita chips which were absolutely amazing. Overall I really loved my first time eating Cava and I highly recommend all my chipotle lovers to give it a try.

My go to Cava location (close to work)! Perfect for lunch or dinner and they use fresh ingredients! It does get really busy during lunch time though, it may be faster just to go in person. Super easy to order on the app! I really like to do a build your own Grains and Greens Bowl with chicken. My favorite sauce combo is crazy feta, red pepper hummus, and the balsamic date vinaigrette!

Chipotle style Mediterranean! 5/5. You can build your own or chose a bowl or pita blend. It was absolutely delicious and prices were fair. I do with there was a little more protein, I got falafel and only got 4 and it wasn't much. Service was quick and friendly. Plenty of seating but felt dirty.

First time trying cava, and I was not disappointed. This is probably the best salad/bowl fast food place i've tried, and I will definitely come back. Love the different topping options, and the spicy feta spread was delicious. Came during a lunch rush so I ordered ahead of time, and my food was prepared on time!

Way Tastier Than Greco!! Spicy falafel salad is Packed with flavors and textures. Utilitarian setting (what if Panera but mediterranean?) Their custom iced teas/lemonades taste amazing too. No comment on service, we ordered online.

Consistently messes up my order and leaves out ingredients. Portions are not what they should be (ordered a half salad/half a grain and got 4 pieces of lettuce. Cambridge location is a million times better/more reliable.

Great service even in the height of the rush hour. The food is hearty and tastes fresh. I especially love that they make the sauces in house!

The food is delicious and fresh. Location gets pretty packed and there are limited seats.

Not a good location. Never been there before so I tried it out. but felt so rushed as soon as I was inside. Line reaches all the way out the door. Barely any seating at all. The workers are all in a rush and makes ordering as a customer even more confusing. They messed up on my order and add sauces and stuff I didn't even ask for. Noticed it wasn't only mine they messed up on, By putting the wrong things in order bowls. Won't go again and the food ain't even good (maybe cause they added random stuff I didn't even ask for who knows)

Cava continues to deliver on excellent food, service, and clean eateries! Despite some minor growing pains with a new location, this Cava has hit the nail on the head where it comes to the essentials. To start with, all of the ingredients are bright, fresh and high quality. No sad greens or veggies, and no proteins beset by water from sitting out too long. Secondly, the service has been very speedy and kind. Lastly, the location is very clean - which can be tough considering the location borders the Financial District and Downtown Crossing. Finally, I do have two minor notes - just feedback, not complaints: 1. I once asked for a kiddie Pita - which caused some confusion. Does he mean a bowl? A full pita? I guess an adult ordering something like that is a little uncommon. No worries 2. When deciding on a hummus, there was some confusion regarding what is what. Given, there is a label listing the possibilities, but asking "What is the orange one?" led to some confusion. I am thrilled to have a Cava so close to my work, and to have a location that I will enjoy (not dread) visiting, even if it is a grab & go affair.

It's not worth, the walk and the price, the food nothing special, no customer what so ever, never again, ashamed my self the one time, The few tables are dirty, I stayed in for 2 hours just to be disgusted myself,

Food is decent. Don't order in advance unless you have 15-30 extra minutes to wait for your order. Occasionally it's ready on time, but more often, I have to ask for it and wait an additional 15-30 minutes.

Trying Mediterranean cuisine on my own for the 1st time, I was pleasantly surprised. You can't go wrong with the braised lamb, chicken nor falafel. The hot, house made, freshly made pita chips took my experience to another level. The tsaskiki, crazy feta, harisa was also on point! Definitely on my list of places when I travel. Keep up the great job!

This restaurant is so tasty and reasonably priced except for the last time they kind of jacked it up with no explanation but it's fine

I can't say that I was impressed at all, I only came here because I wanted to try something new on my way to Sweetgreens. One thing I'll give them is that their beverage selection is way better than Sweetgreens, but for the price of their bowls, it seems that Sweetgreens gives a bigger portion, a side of bread and it's just as flavorful. I expect mediterranean food to be spicy and full of flavor, I didn't get that at Cava.

I wish i would have tried my usual Cava location in cambridge instead of 125 summer street. I ordered the chicken greek salad bowl which was so watery at the bottom, and did not taste fresh what so ever, it looked like it was just thrown together in a hurry, chicken was very chewy, I actually just threw the entire bowl in the trash, what a complete waste of my money, never again. I wish i would've taken a picture of this complete mess...
