    Pita wrap

    Cava has some of the best food and flavors that you can get from a major chain restaurant. I've been here probably over a dozen times since moving to the area and this location always hits the spot! The inside is well kept and looks great. But the service about the worst I've had in the DMV area. Every person that you talk to there while ordering treats you as the biggest inconvenience. This place would be 5 stars if not for the rude service.

    Mash up food, what you want. Mmmm (yeah right!)

    A great place to mash up food and eat it too. Easier to digest! The staff really like their job, I'm kidding, how could you like your job at minimum wage? What's minimum wage nowadays $12? Well that's not enough to serve food with a smile and be kind. Go somewhere else. Oh yeah, you like mash up food, (whispers) then go here.

    First time dining with CAVA during COVID and I felt pretty good about the experience overall. My son and I visited on a Wednesday around 1:30 and while the two shaded tables outside were taken, no one was sitting inside. One other person came in towards the end and sat on the opposite side of the dining room. Every other table is marked off, all staff were masked appropriately, and anyone entering for pickup was also masked. I usually order the same thing-a super greens bowl with roasted red pepper hummus, tzatziki, and eggplant and red pepper. I always get the honey harissa chicken , now that it's an option. Toppings: tomatoes and onions, diced cucumbers, Fresno peppers, kalamata olives. I was surprised to not see the sriracha yogurt dressing offered so I chose the harissa vinaigrette and the dill cucumber yogurt. Everything was, as usual, fresh and delicious. I really liked the new vinaigrette which was quite spicy! My son got a kids meal with rice, chicken pita , pita chips and hummus. Oh and of course his favorite part-milk. He ate all the chicken, some rice, and a couple chips so it was a win in my book! I love that , across the board, CAVA is a consistent brand where I always know I will get a high quality fast -casual meal.

    Packed with flavor and very tasty. The only downside is that it is light and doesn't really fill you up.

    I love how fresh the ingredients are here, but I am having an issue with the concept of ordering…read morecrispy shallots, and receiving TORTILLA STRIPS when I place a pickup order. The first time this happened, I called the store and was told the manager was going to get in contact with me. This was roughly 6 months ago, or less, and they never did. Now tonight, I ordered the same salad I always get with the crispy shallots and AGAIN I get tortilla strips? Why is your staff not educated on what the toppings are for this to happen twice in roughly a six month span. Now, since I am an ingredient household, I am lucky enough to have crispy onions to replace the strips but at what cost? It's not the same. Anyway, food is too expensive for it to be made wrong.

    I cannot tell you how frustrating it is to place an order through an app and think you are going to…read morepick something up on time, only to get there, not find your order ready, and find out that two of the key items you needed/wanted are not even there. Why sell dressing if you don't have it? Lmao And instead of calling you to let you know or ask you if you would like an alternative, they expect you to act like you are not inconvenienced and just take what they give you when you come in. This is my favorite salad place (not this location, but Chopt in general). There aren't that many in the area, so I drove out of my way to get here today. When I arrived, after my pick up time, I was immediately frustrated when my order wasn't available and I was told someone would be with me in a moment. I was crunched for time; hence, why I placed my order for pickup before I even knew I would arrive. A few minutes later, an employee came down and asked me if I needed help. When I told her I was there for an order I placed through the app, she told me that they were out of the dressing I requested. She said "it would take a really long time for us to get that for you." The way she phrased it made it seem like they were out of dressing for the actual salad, itself, too. She asked if I wanted any other salad dressings. I said no. I am very particular about my dressings. She told me she could refund me and that I didn't need to be there. I left shortly after. My biggest issue is that when you have an account and place a mobile order, they do have your phone number. They could've called me or even texted me to let me know that the items were out of stock. They also still could have and should have put my salad on the shelf for pick-up. They were obviously behind because my salad wasn't even finished and they hadn't even put my bread in a bag. To make matters worse, once I actually did start to eat my salad in the car, I noticed the following: -missing ingredients (THAT I PAID FOR) -multiple avocado pits (after paying an upcharge) -shrimp shells ... ewww -and onion skin Like, why am I paying $20 for this salad?

Today, we were greeted quickly and warmly and shown to a table. My Dad had a huge burger, which he said was good. My sister had the Gumbo- I tasted it and it was delicious! My Caribbean chicken and shrimp would've been delicious, but the chicken was way way too salty! The shrimp and beans and rice were both good. I'm so glad I ordered the sauce on the side because it ratcheted up the salt level to briny. Our server was adequate. The dining room is in a sort of weird U-shaped to me, but and spaced to serve.

Our server was nice, but we didn't receive silverware until after our food had already been served, which was a little frustrating especially since the restaurant was not very crowded at the time. One positive was that parking was very convenient and easy.

Locked away in a comforting space within an office building, it always feels like I stepped into a mom and pop style restaurant. The hosts, servers, chefs, and owner are just incredible- super friendly, knowledgeable, and they really treat you like family here. Now the food. The food is so delicious here. Some of my s/o and my favorite dishes are the cheese pizza (you seriously cannot beat the price), and gnocchi, which is covered in a creamy tomato sauce with chunks of onion and warm tomatoes, and the chicken pesto pasta. Honestly, I've never had a bad meal here. Everything is portioned perfectly, and I swear you never leave hungry here. They also went viral for their chicken caesar wrap too, and I can attest that it's yummy! I'd ask for extra sauce on the side if possible though, but that's because I'm a caesar lover! I'd highly recommend everyone checking out Aldo's. The owner is the sweetest, most caring man and he really is so appreciative of all the customers. If you have a craving for some italian food, go here! And also, don't leave without trying their tiramisu or walk out with their rainbow cookies!
