CAVA

My favorite fast food chain since ChicFilA. I absolutely love everything that they serve. My favorite is the spicy lamb meatballs. I love the quality of ingredients as well as the amount they are willing to give you. I love to mix the blueberry lavender drink with classic lemonade. It makes a stellar combo. I always feel good in my gut after eating here. I love to see the direction that fast food is moving with this. I wish we had one in Clermont, FL as I have to drive 40 min for the closest location.

Great spot for a quick bite that’s healthy and delicious. Ingredients are always fresh and they have a ton of options like bowls and wraps. Not to mention vegetarian friendly as well.

Busy / popular at lunch, but telling in that it's popular with a wide range of folks, and the lounge moves fast. It's barely Greek, more a made-to-suit bowl place with some Greek flavors (hummus, falafel, feta). Easy and fresh. Weird parking lot. Pleasant extra outdoor space when the weather isn't too hot.

First time trying Cava and I was impressed! Think Mediterranean food served Chipotle-style. The food was good, and the service was quick. Definitely a good experience

This is the best casual restaurant, the food is incredible good and very very tasty, the restaurant is clean, the employees are friendly and super fast, I like the fact that you can create different combinations.

This is so refreshing for the Orlando area. In a place full of unhealthy food options, CAVA is my new favorite place to eat good quality, whole food that is absolutely delicious. The flavors are just refreshing and I don't feel heavy once I've completed my bowl. This will definitely be my go to spot ar least 2-3 times a week especially since the prices are reasonable.

Orlando and Maria were very kind and helpful. The line moved very smooth and thoroughly. Better than Chipotle for sure with the new strawberry citrus!!

This is my first time here, and I had a great experience! The staff is very friendly and helpful, especially Lu! She recommended the best options for my bowl. Plus, Ashlee is an excellent manager! I want to come back soon!

For the first time CAVA customer it can be a little overwhelming- many choices to choose from as you create your own bowl OR choose one of the curated bowls on their menu. Their Greek Chicken bowl sounded good, and I'm too thoughtful to ask the customer behind me to wait while I decide! My split second decision was a home run , and I'd order it all over again! It has a base of arugula and romaine, fresh cucumber, red peppers, black olives, feta, red onions and taziki sauce with Greek chicken. Very good, fresh and definitely a reorder! This spot was very busy at lunchtime, and service was quick and pleasant. They do offer catering for your next event!

We stopped here for dinner after shopping in the area. We love CAVA so we were excited to try this location. It was busy, but the line moved pretty quickly. The workers were polite. They were out of a lot of ingredients when we ordered, which was a bit upsetting being that we still paid full price for a bowl that felt like a lot was missing. They had minimal seating inside, and some seating outside. There was also plenty of parking around too! The restaurant itself looked clean. While we will definitely visit CAVA again, I'm unsure if I would go out of my way to come back to this location.

To only be slightly dramatic, CAVA changed my life. I didn't know such a thing existed before, but my existence is much better knowing this healthier option exists! (Recognizing it's not THE healthiest, but I don't feel terrible consuming like other fast food places) Highly recommend the chicken as your main protein, it was so tender and juicy! The lemonade and other juices were also delicious - try mixing the two! Can't wait to come here more often.

Cava is quickly becoming one of my favorite go-tos for quick, fresh and tasty food! Similar to Chipotle, but for Mediterranean food, Cava is a great option for a filling, veggie-filled meal. Since I'm eating less lately, I love their kids meals, but their full-size bowls are DELICIOUS and you can get any number of toppings! Be sure to grab a drink-- their lemonades are amazing! We're always able to find seating and love how light and airy the dining area is. It can get a little loud, but you're still able to have conversations! The employees are also super sweet and personable which adds a nice "plus" to the experience!

Cava has such a variety to choose from with their meat and topping options ! Everything is fresh and the staff is friendly. The line was long but it was totally worth it. I created my own bowl with the saffron rice and power greens with grilled chicken. You've gotta try the crazy feta it's so yummy. Big portion and great value!

This is a great place! Huge lineup and super fresh food. Located next to Chipotle. Actually, this can be considered the Mediterranean version of Chipotle. Similar options of either a bowl or pita. Except with Mediterranean flavors and option of lentils instead of beans. Nice variety of drinks also! A healthy choice for fast food!

Cali girl visiting Florida and this was a must try for my daughter and I. First timers. We weren't sure what to order or expect. But- Absolutely delicious!

Love their cucumber mint lime drink... it's homemade and refreshing... just how I like it!You create your own bowl, love all the options. I chose braised lamb and my boyfriend got chicken, we were both satisfied. The options to put into your bowl are Greek style. Service is fast!

I have had cava many times, this was the first i get food poisoning i dont know what it was but immediately had to use the bathroom within a hour im not someone who uses the bathroom in public places but i couldnt wait. This location needs some work on ingredients. The meat and rice tasted off I couldn't put my hand on what it was.

Finally hopping on the CAVA train! The menu can be overwhelming, and in fear that I would order the wrong combination of ingredients, I just ordered the Harissa Avocado Bowl. It was a very refreshing and healthy fast food meal. Service was swift even with a long lunch-hour line. There are plenty of seating options both inside and outside.

Pros: *welcoming vibe *plenty of parking *clean *indoor + outdoor seating *variety of menu options or build your own *Mediterranean version of Chipotle *very fresh ingredients *good portion size *reasonable pricing Cons: *weird fountain sodas *I wish they put more rice in the bowl *I was told the whipped feta dip wouldn't be spicy but it was

This visit was extremely sub-par to the rest. Very long line for dinner wrapped the restaurant, and their solution was taking as many people as possible in the first "base and meat" sections and passing all bowls along to the toppings, and they were stacking up while we waited for each person to process. What I didn't appreciate: My bowl was made so early and sat out, it was quite a few minutes waiting for my turn to add the toppings - not sitting under a heat lamp made the food less fresh. I got the new Steak, not knowing that it was a $3 upcharge because I wasn't allowed to move forward to look at the sticker on the glass with the pricing. They worked through the bowls way too quickly. I was too embarrassed to ask them to remake my bowl, I wouldn't have gotten that knowing it was that expensive of an add-on. The steak is NOT worth the $3 upcharge. Did not taste fresh and the advertising definitely made it sound more appealing than it was.

Delicious, clean fast service, very enjoyable expertise in experience provided. The Pita and soda from Maine are the way to do things the right way there. So good!

Angelo was extremely helpful, he deserves a promotion. Serving sizes where also amazing

Seriously NEVER DISAPPOINTS! Cava is probably my favorite place ever to gran a quick lunch, the food is always perfectly seasoned and se great quality. Service is always really fast. My favorite go to for sure, yes, the hype is real.

Absolutely love CAVA. I have not dined there a few times and every time has been spot on. This nice the service was great! Lucky for me it was slow so I could take my time deciding what I wanted. The young lady that took my order was very friendly (everyone working was friendly) and patient with me . I couldn't wait to get home to dig in and just like my previous visits, my bowl was amazing! If you haven't tried the garlic sauce, do it next time. As I mentioned, it was slow when I went in, but the food on the line was all hot and fresh. I don't know why I don't come her more often. It literally hits every time.

I had really high expectations coming into this restaurant, because the one on Soto is so unbelievably amazing. However when I walked in there wasn't really a line so I assumed the service was quick. I normally don't give restaurants less than five stars however I feel like 3 stars is enough. He said it was about a couple minutes please for lamb balls but this guy behind me looked as if he was in a rush; which made me feel bad so I didn't wait for the lamb. I decided to go with the sweet potatoes and as soon as I sat down they were cold. I'll probably stick to the SoDo location for sure!

The steak feta pita was delicious. The service was good and the staff were friendly and helpful. The have outside seating and plenty of parking. I would go back again.

LOVE this location! This place has been my go-to for this pregnancy cravings! Super clean, staff is super friendly, and food is always fresh and on point. The menu can seem overwhelming but the staff helps you along the way! They have chicken and steak options if you are not into lamb, and the basmati rice is amazing every time!

Food was tasty and offered an alternative to Chipotle. Plenty of healthy options, including vegan and vegetarian. Only complaint is the portion size wasn't as large as I would have liked.

I love Cava in general! However, this particular location seems to have a reputation of extreme delays. This isn't based on my review alone, but from others that have gone here and are tired of it. If you have an order and you planned it for either ASAP- 30 minutes ahead, expect to either wait around for someone to actually say hello/ acknowledge you or for the food to have been made. There's nothing more important for a business than to not have 8 employees standing around not doing anything but have one employee doing work. It would be helpful and especially respectful for someone to actually acknowledge you, especially if you ordered your food to go. The location was EMPTY when I walked in and no one looked in my direction until one person who was breezing by quickly asked if I had anything, told them my name and gave me the wrong order. Not only did I correct them but then was proceeded to be told that there's no one with that name. I repeated my name again. The man that was the only one actually doing anything, was the one that walked up to me, asked my name and had the bowl already ready to go. It seems that there's an overwhelming amount of responsibility for the supervisor at the time, however for a bunch of employees to be standing there and not offering any help, isn't pretty straight up rude and not efficient. And I'm not just speaking on my behalf as the customer that's watching this happen, but the guy who's literally doing a lot. Not on person offered him help the 35 minutes I stood there. Kudos to the Hispanic dude working to-go I assumed, that day. But based on reviews from other folks, this place needs to do a lot better in regards to team work. There's already a viral tiktok about the experience itself, just not tagging the location. Haven't had this issue at any other Cava but THIS one location. Hope it improves!

I went here and let's just say I was impressed. I'll admit I'm not into healthy food so when I checked to see what they had I almost walked away. BUT I am glad I decided to give them a try. The food was good and flavorful to say the least! Great meal especially since it's healthy. Next time I would like to try pita chips or even a peta bread. What I got : Basmati rice Romain lettuce Tzatziki Crazy feta Red pepper humus Tomato and cucumber Cherry tomatoes Crumbled feta Harissa honey chicken (Spicy ) Balsamic vinegarette Free side pita (I forgot to get this item)

I tried Cava about a month ago and went back that weekend! It was so good! The food is really fresh and I enjoyed every bit. I get the grain bowl and add my toppings such as basmati rice, tzatziki, crazy feta, spicy lamb meatballs or grilled chicken. Then you can add your drawings if you'd like. The pita chips are a must for me! You can get a free side of pita bread with your order. I highly recommend for a good balanced meal.

The food was amazing. I really loved how healthy of an option it was. The service was good it was regular but we did have an employee go above and beyond for us. The ambiance was very simple. I didn't mind.

The flavors were good, though that's the only nice thing about this place. The staff, while friendly, were clearly untrained and were too slow and unobservant. Management needs to do way better at up keeping this place. The whole restaurant was messy and dirty: out of napkins and trash and food everywhere. Also, the cashier didn't change his gloves to roll up my dads pita wrap before or after. That's a big ick. The pita press was broken and they were out of a lot of options which is lame. If you're going to try Cava for the hype, go to a different location. The pita chips are way too greasy and overall the food wasn't that fresh.

My go to place for lunch/dinner, I lost most of my weight spending my money here and I have no problem with that. The different varieties that they have and the freshness they offer is chefs kiss. This location Dosent fill your bowl as they should. And the young lady seem like she had an attitude when I ask her for double scoop of toppings. This is closer to my job so I do go here quite often. The bowls are about 11 bucks and with a drink and pita chips it usually comes to 16 bucks

Food was great. I ate a Greek salad with chicken. The service was quick. The person who took the other was attentive and prompt to give suggestions. I definitely will go back.

We stopped in on a Thursday around 3. Ciera immediately welcomed us in. She saw us looking at the menu and asked if we had been there before. She quickly began to explain all the options to us. There was no line, so we took our time deciding between a bowl or pita, as everything sounded so good. We decided on the pitas. The toppings are so fresh, the grilled chicken and lamb meatballs were seasoned really well. The pitas were very soft and fresh. The sauces were really good. Don't forget to order a side of pita chips, ours were warm and tasty. The restaurant's decor was minimalist which I like so the focus remains on the food. They have indoor and outdoor seating which was nice. Really happy they finally opened and staff there are all really helpful, definitely worth checking out!

Oh how I wish there was a Cava in Polk county. The food is so fresh and you can pick what you like. Not limited. The service is great. They will explain everything. The restaurant is comfortable and always clean. The staff are wonderful. The young man, who always seems to be here, is so friendly and outgoing. Always hustling. The two young ladies working the line on 8/6/23 were so nice and had such beautiful smiles. Nice to have a smile while working.

Great food and drinks. I loved the freshness of the food. ai came for a quick but filling lunch and it did just that. I love how you can mix up the options. The lamb meatballs were fire!

The food was mostly good, but there simply wasn't enough of it provided. After looking at the sad bowl they prepared for me and comparing it to other customers around me, I couldn't help but feel a bit ripped off. Their falafel was just OK, and I much preferred the lamb meatballs - although they were burnt. The sauces I tried were all great, but they provide way too much sauce and not nearly enough vegetables. A giant 3 ounces of harissa is just stupid, but why do I only get 3 kalamata olive halves?? That's 1.5 total olives - really?! I would suggest a pita over the rice bowl any day, as ultimately the price of the bowl compared to what you'd get at any other fast casual like Chipotle, Moe's, etc. was about 60% the size and 20-30% more expensive. Maybe it is just this location because the staff seemed pretty confused and complacent.

CAVA is always a go to for me and I was so happy to see they have it in Orlando! Since I'm on vacation, I ordered delivery through their app (they partner with DoorDash). Of course, it did take a while, but that's to be expected. My order was prepared right and everything was delicious. The only thing they missed was utensils/napkins.

Cava's create-your-own bowl is a fresh and delicious experience. The variety of ingredients allows you to customize your meal to perfection. It's a go-to spot for those seeking healthy and flavorful options.

So, I have been to this location more than 10x I love cava overall but this location is the closest to me. Place is clean, stocked up every single time, employees are hardworking and so kind, food overall is great! The restroom's do need a little more attention but overall this place is so good!!!

First time trying this place, the lady who helped us didn't give NO recommendations to help figure out what to get, no customer service skills, however the food was great!! The PITA CHIPS were AMAZING!!! Those are 10/10. The food is good my favorite dip was garlic and harassa. There was another lady who actually gave us some tips and gave us the free bread it came with because the other lady didn't and forgot.

First time at cava! It did not disappoint everything was good and fresh. It came out quickly and got free pita chips too. Definitely a nice place with great workers. I also had the cucumber lemonade it was very good had to refill. Definitely returning.

BEWARE!! I got rotten avacados. It's supposed to be healthy not try and poison someone. This is not CAVA standard

The pits chips are amazing. The one strawberry juice they make is absolutely delicious. Every single time i stop and get cava i am never disappointed! I always customize my bowl to my liking and the workers aren't stingy with the portions which i personally love lol. The sitting area is huge indoors and outdoors which makes it great to grab lunch with friends and family.

I never leave reviews, but my experience the last two times was very poor. The first time I went there I stood in line for 5 minutes because the staff was talking to each other and laughing instead of attending the customers in line. I wanted to give this location another try, so I went in and the other customer behind and I were ignored for a couple of minutes because the staff were in the back talking and laughing with each other again. The other customer and I were the only ones in line. This location has a bunch of untrained staff who do not care about their customers. Also the food is not worth it. Very small portions. I will not be coming back.

First time to Cava! The manager, Mr. Lorenzo was awesome! He helped us make our selection and everything is delicious! The place was so clean and the employees were so nice helpful. Great experience!

I highly recommend this location! The staff from the grill cooks to the employees creating our bowls seem so confident and happy to work here. The second I entered the store everyone were attentive and greeted me without hesitation. The food and drinks are worth the money!

This location sucks. It's always dirty, the workers are rude. Don't get me wrong i love the food, i'm from Jacksonville and the Cava locations we have there are great. I would not recommend this location AT ALL. Worst experience especially the worker with little black glasses.

Food is great. Salads. Pitas chicken is delicious! Staff was friends specifically Lorenzo! Great attitude helpful and friendly!

I've been to the one in winter park! This location had nothing, everything in the pita needed to be substituted.. not one apology or suggestion, just we don't have it. Even down to the dressing... they didn't have it! Do not go to this location... not clean, lacking inventory, lacking proper management

I love the food but they forgot my side vinaigrettes for my uber order so now I have to eat my bowl sauceless

I have been excited to try this chain for a long time. I have not heard so much hype around a chain in awhile; stock market, celebrity endorsements, etc. The concept is simple in practice- Mediterranean/Middle Eastern food ordered Chipotle style. I have seen this exact concept done before, with non successful results. The difference between the previous places and Cava though comes with the food and aesthetic of the restaurant. The food is without a doubt, good quality for a fast/casual restaurant. I have limited knowledge of where the food is prepped, but it tasted incredibly fresh. The aesthetic of the restaurant is nothing to write home about, but neither is Chipotle. They are both clean, industrial, and boring. The look works. The similarities between Cava and Chipotle end there however. I frequent Chipotle, but I won't sing it's praises. It's a good, highly popular chain restaurant. There is not much more to say than that. However, one thing I can give them extra credit points for is there employees. Every Chipotle I have been to at least has attentive employees, and most are nice. It's not like they have amazing manners, or say some catchphrase like Chick Fil A, they just do their job in an efficient manner. I can't say this about the Cava employees. When I visited, the restaurant was barely busy- yet it still seemed like the employees were burdened by my appearance. I don't need restaurant employees to be nice to me. I do not need nice words. I understand that sometimes work days are hard, sometimes people have things in their personal life going on, but there is a certain level of attentiveness a customer expects. It is easy to tell when an employee does not want to do their job, does not want to serve you. I ordered the build your own pita, Cava's burrito equivalent. It is a sizable portion (debatably more filling than a Chipotle burrito) and allows for more customization than Chipotle. I cannot complain about this pita, it was good. I however, can complain about how it was made. Excessive hummus was put on this pita, ingredients were thrown around, and ingredients were put before they were asked to be put. I was taking awhile to decide on what toppings from the vegetable section I wanted on my pita, which I understand can be slightly frustrating to an employee. When I'm at work (I do not work in food services) slow customers can irk me- it's just natural. We want to get our jobs done fast. The thing is though, there was no one else besides me and I ordered a build your own pita- the point of it is to build your own. A topping was immediately put on my pita, after which the employee asked me "do you want everything on it?" I hesitated at first to tell her that I didn't want the topping she had already put on, but I ended up doing it. The pita was remade and my purchase complete. Then, throughout the rest of the time at the restaurant I just heard the employees talking loud and boisterous. Which, respectfully, is a strange environment for a customer to be in. I genuinely enjoyed the food I had here, despite the sloppiness. I will not return to this location though.

The food was super amazing when my girlfriend and I ate here earlier for a quick lunch, it was super fresh and tasty, it definitely exceeded my expectations. I was also helped by a very pleasant, friendly, and professional associate by the name of Angelo who was able to inform of me of all sorts of details concerning food and who even gave us a good laugh, definitely will becoming back in for lunch. Great job Cava Millenia and Angelo!
