    Came here looking for a satisfying and filling lunch. I got their chicken with white and brown rice with as many of the free toppings I could get. They were very generous with the servings and gave me two sauces on the side too. Staff were friendly and the place was relatively clean. Would certainly come again!

    This was my second time visiting CAVA, and I'm officially hooked! The first time I went, I had no idea what anything was, but the staff was incredibly helpful and friendly--they walked me through building a custom bowl I had seen in a previous review, and the experience was smooth and welcoming. This time, I decided to try one of their curated bowls--the Harissa Avocado--and WOW. It was packed with flavor! The combination of harissa honey chicken, Crazy Feta®, hummus, fire-roasted corn, avocado, rice, SuperGreens, and that harissa vinaigrette was chef's kiss. It's 840 calories of pure deliciousness, and I already know this will be my go-to order from now on. Also, don't sleep on the drinks--super refreshing and pair perfectly with the food. Highly recommend CAVA to anyone who loves bold, fresh, and customizable Mediterranean flavors!

    I had been to the location in Cumming a year ago so was excited to eat lunch here. I loved the chicken sate bowl that I had before and went in expecting to order the same thing. To my surprise the menu changed three weeks ago. Womp womp!! A very kind man wearing a name tag that said Dedric is the reason I stayed He convinced me to take the choose your own adventure route and build my own bowl. I went down the line choosing flavors that I thought I would enjoy, Dedric helped me through the experience, very patiently explaining each of the options on every station as we went. He gave me his opinions and sometimes suggested that I taste an item before I added it to my bowl. My final product was OK, but I think I need more practice with knowing which flavors mix well together. The ingredients are extremely fresh and delicious. I would've rated this a 5 if I had created a better pairing of flavors and enjoyed my bowl more. Honestly, if I lived closer to a Cava, I would eat here enough, that I know what to order.

    I ate here two weeks ago with my manager for a work lunch. I hadn't had a Cava bowl in quite a few months before eating here that day. They are still as good as I'd remembered. I don't know why I went with a personalized bowl rather than a chef-curated signature. This probably derailed the quality of the bowl because I don't know what tastes good together. I added the harissa dip, and it was definitely way too spicy for me. For my drink, I got a blend of strawberry citrus + cucumber mint lime. It was super refreshing and satisfied my thirst fully!

    two custom bowls. best game day dinner! go jackets!

    This CAVA is by far my favorite in Atlanta! The employees are always so nice and friendly, shoutout to Miles and Mohammad for having great energy and being the best servers ever! I prefer this location over the Buckhead location because Buckhead tends to be out of ingredients every time I go, especially falafel. When the Brookhaven location ran out of something, they let us know that it would just be a few minutes and then they brought it out. I love this location, never going anywhere else again!

    Greek gyro

    Quick review: First time visiting Cava and the best way I can explain it is that it's like a Chipotle for Mediterranean food. Below are some pros and cons of my experience: Pros - food was tasty (I ordered a Greek Gyro) - Similar to Chipotle, they have those organic lemonades and teas that pretty much goes well with any meal, definitely prefer that over sodas. Cons - although the food was good, it was a bit overpriced, especially for the portion size. - there is only two menu ideas (gyros and bowls) and seemed to be a limit on the kind of combinations you could do. (I noticed some people building their own bowl, I may try that next time). - the staff were extremely friendly, but unfortunately didn't pretty much caution with being sanitized. They weren't wearing mask and some were even sitting on the counter where food is passed from the kitchen to be served. Overall, the food was good and the service was nice, just the cost and the lack of caution around being sanitized turned me off a bit. But maybe one day I'll give them another try, i mean I still have to build my own bowl!

    So good

The spices in the rice were overpowering and my partner didn't enjoy it as much. The potatoes were extra crunchy and a bit burnt... unsure if it was overdone or on purpose. It smelled like was it cooked in coconut oil. I would say 7 out of 10 overall. The lamb neck was recommended by the waiter. It was really good, slow cooked and the meat was tender. The sauce was unremarkable. The waiter gave us a house made spicy sauce and made this dish significantly better. I would say 9/10 overall. The hummus with the pickled mushroom was amazing. It was topped off with truffle oil and I just couldn't keep my hands off of it. I would say 10/10. I just want to point out the bill had a notice that says "tips are based on check prices after taxes" was confusing and unsure why would company charge tips on top of taxes. Our waiter was amazing so we didn't mind paying the extra but it really made us wonder about the company policy.

My girlfriend has a very strict diet due to food sensitivities, so before ordering she specifically asked about the dough, bread, and flours used in the food. Unfortunately, instead of receiving details about the ingredients, she was simply told that she could eat it. Based on that information, she ordered the meal, but later had a reaction to the dough that was used. This was frustrating because the situation likely could have been avoided if we had been given accurate information about the ingredients from the beginning. We completely understand that not every restaurant can accommodate every dietary restriction, but being transparent about what is used in the food allows customers to make informed decisions for themselves. The food itself was good, which is why we're giving 3 stars, but the service on this particular issue left us disappointed. We hope the restaurant can do a better job of providing ingredient information when customers ask, especially for those with dietary restrictions or sensitivities.

From the moment I walked in, Kameel made me feel welcome. His energy is contagious, and he genuinely engages with every customer, making everyone feel like family rather than just another order. That level of hospitality is hard to find and really sets this place apart. I ordered their best-selling Chicken Shawarma Wrap, and it absolutely lived up to the hype. The halal, hormone-free chicken breast was perfectly seasoned with Turkish spices, grilled with sweet white onions, and wrapped with creamy hummus, smoky baba ghanoush, fresh cabbage salad, tabouli, and tahini in their homemade wrap. Every bite was packed with fresh, vibrant flavors, and the portion was surprisingly generous. For dessert, I couldn't resist the Pistachio Baklava, and I'm glad I didn't. The flaky filo layers were filled with pistachios and lightly sweetened with organic maple syrup instead of refined sugar. Combined with 100% olive oil and a hint of rose water, it was rich without being overly sweet and made for the perfect ending to the meal. What I also appreciate is Aviva's commitment to quality and healthy eating. They cook exclusively with 100% extra virgin olive oil, use halal, hormone- and antibiotic-free meats, fresh local produce, and avoid processed ingredients. They also offer vegan and gluten-free options while taking care to prevent cross-contamination, making it an inclusive place for people with different dietary needs. The restaurant itself is clean, organized, and inviting. While the prices are a little higher than some food court options, the quality of the ingredients, generous portions, outstanding service, and incredible flavors make it well worth every dollar. If you're in Downtown Atlanta and craving Mediterranean cuisine, Aviva by Kameel is definitely worth a visit. Great food, generous portions, warm hospitality, and a dining experience that keeps you coming back. Highly recommended!
