    Delicious food and fast service!! I love going here when I want to get full and something healthy. This location is never packed when I visit either.

    Short Lady working cashier rudest ever, bad talking customers in Spanish. Guy serving customers is Luis, angriest CAVA employee ever.

    I complete agree with the other reviews, saw it first hand today. The big guy Luis Rivera who works there is extremely rude to customers, and the short old lady as well. The short old lady was serving a pair of nurses, 2 people in front of me, and kept rolling her eyes, hemming and hawing, and being too fast throwing stuff in their plates. Then when she started serving a Spanish couple in front of me she switched over to speaking Spanish and started to complain about the customer that was 4 feet away. Ridiculous. My wife ordered a bowl, and the lady dropped my wife's pita on the ground out of site. She quickly picked it up and put it back in the bag. My wife kindly asked for a new pita and she became angered, gave my wife a mean look and rolled her eyes. All because she herself dropped the pita bread. The guy Luis Rivera was worse, I asked for a side of garlic sauce and he threw his hands up in the air like he was annoyed, paced back and forth, and got the side (which took 5 seconds) he walked back over and aggressively slid it to me. It almost went right off his table. No eye contact just he just walked away. These employees here suck, probably the rudest CAVA employees ever. They are here to serve food, be kind, be clean. If you don't want to do that then leave.... I felt bad for everyone that I watched in line. Don't know what is wrong with these people, but I want to tell others to avoid this place and these terrible angry workers. Luis and his miserable side kick are in this picture. Lastly the lentils were way over cooked, crunchy and hard. And the braised lamb was way over salted, inedible.

    Seriously this place is not the next Chipotle!!! Please don't make any investment. I heard this place is the next BIG thing. Well I ordered online. My order was sent to the wrong location! Not only that they ran out of steak. I ordered the Harissa Avacdo . The moment I opened that bowl it was drenched in sauces. They gave me 1 tbsp of dry chicken and 10 oz of garlic sauce . 1 slice of Avacado and 2 falfael. The kale was chewy and the rice was dry. You would think the sauces would save the food. No the spices are offensive. This place is so blend!

    One of the plates.

    Got three orders (two bowls and a pita), all with chicken. The chicken was burnt for the entire order.

I thought it would be a small coffee shop but it is much more. Ample seating inside with some outdoor seating, it is a fun atmosphere with a mini bookstore as you walk in and the main restaurant in the other half. There's a small stage for when they have different events. It is a positive and fun environment. I ordered the Turning Violet Latte. I am a big fan of lavender flavor and this latte hit the spot. For my food, I ordered the gluten free pancakes and bacon. You never know what you're going to get with gluten free pancakes and these were some of the good ones. They were fluffy with some fresh fruit sprinkled on top. The syrup was the perfect amount needed for these hot cakes. The bacon was crisp and a great add on. They have a robust menu so you can get a lot of great options here. The service was good and overall I had a great time.

    It's been a few weeks now since my visit but I can still remember and taste the fresh ingredients…read more It's a small shop in del ray but with plenty of seating inside and outside. The staff and extremely friendly. They were so welcoming and really patient with us as we had lot of questions. Even gave us a sample of their lemonade which was refreshing and so delicious had as craving more! Complimented the food so well. We all were so full by the end of our meal but wish we didn't so we could have more. You can tell everything is made in house with so many veggie toppings which I love!! You can get as much toppings as you want, either into a wrap, bowl, or salad. 10/10 recommend!! We also tried the cookies. She said to give them 6 or 8 minutes (can't remember) and they will be ready. Cookies are fresh fresh and always warmed up per order. They were perfect. If you go to their website they have a rewards program check it out first!!

They have indoor and outdoor seatings. The menu offers outside the bowl they have desserts and also drinks. I ordered gyro bowl with Cucumber Lemonade and it's the best partner! Gyro was moist and all the added stuff tastes fresh. Of course will go back again to try other food in the menu. The only thing you need to consider the parking. This place is so good that it could get packed especially weekends and dinner time. It is somehow close to the King Street Station but it's still quite a walk.

    I came here for Mother's Day brunch, and it did not disappoint. It was tough getting a reservation,…read morebut I was able to snag one last second. We were seated inside, which had a decent amount of seating. I thought the restaurant was cute, and it had a nice ambience. We ordered several dishes, starting with the cajun crawfish Mac & cheese, crab stuffed oysters, and charred spring vegetables. All 3 starters were delicious, with my favorite being the crab stuffed oysters. The Mac & cheese was a close second - it was nicely seasoned and perfectly au dente. The vegetables were also very good, and the pita it came with was great. On the breakfast menu, we ordered the chicken and waffles and shrimp and grits. Both were very good. I haven't had many chicken and waffles, but the chicken was tasty with the hot honey. The shrimp and grits was very flavorful. If I had to pick one though, I would probably pick the shrimp and grits. The service was solid, she was very friendly and came back a decent number of times. I would 100% come back again!

    Gorgeous restaurant. I have been wanting to visit Matt and Tony's for years but I am not often in…read morethe Arlington area. We walked in and were blessed to immediately get a table despite being told it may be an hour wait on the phone. We received a menu and ordered the breakfast burrito and the biscuits and gravy. Our food came extremely fast which surprised me and makes me wonder how much is prepped ahead. My friend received the burrito and it was very greasy so she requested to order something else. My biscuits and gravy were yummy. The eggs were cooked well and the fried chicken was the star of the show. Easily this was some of the best chicken I have had in a while. I overall enjoyed my meal but I wish there was way more gravy as there was only a little bit layered on top of the 2 biscuits. My friend was given a menu to order something else and this menu was different and had dinner options. It was 4:30 when we came and not more than 15 minutes of difference before receiving a menu the second time so we were surprised but eager to look. My friend ordered the half chicken which came with collard greens and grits. Since there was a different menu I wasn't aware of I wanted to order something additional and opted for saving the brunch meal I ordered for breakfast tomorrow. I loveeee scallops so when I seen them on the menu especially over grits I had to order it. The scallops were cooked wonderfully and I loved the composition of the dish with the creamy grits and the acid from the tomatoes and the smokiness of the sauce and grits. My friend loved the half chicken and after trying it myself we both agreed Matt and Tony's knows how to cook chicken well. The greens had nice flavor but were a little dry and needed some broth/juice from cooking. Again the grits were delicious and creamy with a bit of smoky flavor. I also had the Peso Cocktail which was sweet with a nice kick. Overall I enjoyed this restaurant and would come again and absolute what I ordered again as well. Coming here next time will be hard cause I'm definitely going to be battling between wanting what I already had and trying something new.

Upon entering the restaurant, first impression was that it was clean compared to other sports bars. We reserved the private room which was comfortable. Usually when I frequent sports bars, I have a hard time finding something on the menu that I find appetizing. Well, not here! I've been a fan of mushrooms since childhood and so the mushroom ravioli stood out to me and it was delicious! It's a hefty portion if you add additional protein. Too bad I forgot my to-go container and noticed when I was nearly home :( I tried my friend's Fish & Chips which were equally delicious and perfectly crispy. I'll come back to get my own plate of Fish & Chips and French Onion Soup. The White Russian was especially well-done. They also had St. Patrick's Day specials and while I don't think I would try the Sparkling Shamrock in the future though enjoyed that they had fun options to try. I also am appreciative that there are a handful of non-alcoholic options for someone like me who gets easily flushed. This was my first non-alcoholic beer I've tried and am a fan. The restroom is a bit awkward; upon entering the women's restroom, there is only a single stall and not sure if there is a lock mechanism - anyone can enter and could enter the stall if you aren't holding the stall door restroom. Otherwise the restroom is well maintained and clean. +Mushroom Ravioli-wild mushroom ravioli sautéed with fresh spinach, pancetta, mushrooms, tomato and onions in a sherry-parmesan cream sauce, topped with parmesan cheese w/ shrimp +Fish & Chips-handcut cod filets dipped in beer batter and golden fried, served with hand cut fries, coleslaw and a malt vinegar tartar sauce +Salted Caramel White Russian-Salted caramel vodka, kailua, salted caramel syrup, cream, shaken over ice with a garlic of salted caramel popcorn +Sparkling Shamrock-Vanilla vodka, dark creme de menthe, white creme de cocoa, cream, edible glitter +Erdinger Non-Alcoholic Beer
