The staff are really friendly and the food is always super fresh, consistent. The tables are always clean and a lot of seating which is unusual for a downtown location! One of the better Cava locations I've gone to. Highly recommend! read more

Let me start by saying that I love cava. That being said, this a busy location- parking is crazy and it is also packed. Because of that, placed my larger order online with a pick up of 11:30a(bc I needed to take it to another venue for lunch). I arrive at 11:35 and did not receive my order until 11:49. Therefore, if you are ordering ahead of time, give yourself cushion time as well! The workers were all nice and tried to keep me up to date with the status of my order. read more

First time trying Cava and it did not disappoint! I got the steak + Harissa bowl and added a few other things! It was light and refreshing and packed with so much flavor! Will definitely be going back! read more

First time trying out Cava and it was very excellent. My friends have recommended Cava for ages and told me they frequent at this specific location, so I decided to give it a shot, and it was exactly as they described it! The customer service was quick, the food was amazing, and the location was overall very clean! I will 100% be visiting again for another meal! read more

Always great food and service at this location. My go to for a fast healthy lunch. Adding more characters to meet the limit.

I love, love, LOVE Cava, and even though it was super busy today at lunchtime, as usual, I was more than willing to stand in the long line. Oh dear God! I had almost finished my bowl from this Cava when I bit into something hard. My first thought was that it was a husk or something. Nope. What I pulled out of my mouth was a glittery fake finger nail. Needless to say, I didn't finish my meal. I had taken it back to my hotel room, so unfortunately I wasn't able to let them know what I had found when I found it. Hopefully it was just some weird fluke. The two guys who made my bowl both had gloves on, so I am guessing in happened in the prep area in the back. As much as I love Cava, and as much as I know this is an unusual occurrence for them, I will definitely never eat at this location again. On the bright side, the bowl was absolutely delicious until I found the fake nail! read more

Ordered dinner on the Cava app and they use DoorDash for delivery. I ordered a grain bowl with half saffron white rice and half brown rice, grilled chicken, humus, tzatziki, persian cucumbers, kalmata olives, crumbled feta, pita crisps and Greek vinaigrette on the side. I also got the free side pita. I ordered double cucumbers, olives, feta, and pita crisps. Visually it looked fantastic. It tastes better than it looks. So Delicious! The bad news was the extra longggggg delivery time by DoorDash. When texting with my driver it was obvious there was a language barrier. I think DoorDash allowed the driver to pickup multiple deliveries from multiple locations because I was tracking his movements and this Cava is one mile away from my location but the driver actually drove around three+ miles before arriving. When he arrived I asked why was there such a long delay and he didn't speak English. I highly recommend not using their delivery service. Next time I'll pick it up myself. I gave 5 stars for the Food and 1 star on Service which included delivery. So the overall score is 4 stars. read more

The food has always been so tasty at any Cava Restaurants you can still taste it hours after you have eaten. Unfortunately the lunch staff seems upset at the every guest who come in here. Very stingy with the portion size. read more

A healthy and quick food option downtown. The service is quick and there's plenty of seating. I ordered a bowl and was impressed by how delicious the falafel was. The tables were clean and this location is close to a lot of spots in the city. read more

Honestly, not the biggest fan of cava but food was good. Service was amazing thank you treasure , Lily and anna, great spirits late at night. Amazing customer service. read more

If you're looking for something that's both healthy and actually tastes good, CAVA is a win. It's one of my go-to spots for a quick, satisfying lunch--especially on busy workdays. The place has a clean, modern vibe and runs like a well-oiled machine. You move down the line picking your greens, grains, protein, sides, and dressing--super easy and efficient! I went with the "Build Your Own Bowl" and loved how customizable it was. I started with arugula and black lentils, added grilled chicken, and topped it off with a lemony dressing. Everything tasted super fresh and light--flavorful without being heavy. The staff were friendly and kept the line moving quickly. I also noticed a ton of takeout orders ready by the door--clearly a favorite lunch spot for the downtown crowd ordering ahead online. Overall: great vibes, quality ingredients, and a meal that leaves you full but not weighed down. I'll definitely be back to try more combos! read more

One of the best CAVAs I've ever been to! Everything was so good and fresh! Thank you Eza! Amazing customer service!

Worse experience at a Cava so far. Everything at the counter looked old and dried out. The white rice was hard and gross. So disappointing. The guy at the counter stated they are out of garlic sauce because he is too lazy to go get some from the back. Never going back to this location. So poorly run and managed. Their soda machine isn't working. I mean you might as well shut the doors. read more

Great downtown location and closes late, perfect for travelers who got into town late and looking for a quick, but healthy bite. Place is quite casual, and I got their Harissa avocado bowl, it was great! Lots of veggies that tastes fresh, and the avocado and sauce added a great texture. read more

Was in Austin for the Clemson playoff game and had to stop by Cava of course! We don't have it where I am from so this truly was a hit. I got a custom bowl and a beverage along side some pita chips. So good! read more

Was in downtown Austin for the SXSW festival and needed to grab something quick between movie screenings. I was intrigued by CAVA because it looked like it offered tons of healthy options. There are good and bad things about my first-ever visit, and as a whole, I will absolutely return again. THE GOOD: * The ability to customize your bowl. They have salads, all types of rice, grains, beans, and more. I opted for a bowl with half brown rice and half lentils (both were excellent), and added lots of veggies to the top. *This is a terrific choice for vegetarians, as there are dozens of meat-free options! *The portion sizes are very large, I ended up taking half of my bowl back to the hotel to enjoy the next day. *Free refills on the sodas / iced tea from a self-service drink fountain. *Fair prices, especially considering the high quality, healthy ingredients and portion sizes. THE BAD: *Staff: Cava would be a solid 5 star rating except for how rushed the staff is -- this is a create-your-own bowl place, but they are in such a hurry that they don't listen and then get your order wrong. I had to get my bowl redone TWICE because of the lack of attention from the staff. They had to throw out and waste all that food because of their refusal to slow down and listen, which resulted in my bowl being made wrong -- twice. *Cleanliness: the dining room was disgusting. Really, really filthy. The tables were sticky, trash on the floor, just nasty. Makes me wonder how bad the kitchen could be. *Pita: they offer a side of pita included with your entree, but mine was hard and seemed reheated or microwaved. Pita should be fluffy, and mine was not. It tasted good and would've been awesome had it been fresh and soft. Overall I was quite impressed with CAVA. This quick service chain delivers a solid and tasty meal. I will absolutely return, but I may try to go when they aren't so busy. I think the amount of ingredients and the stressed out staff just causes a ton of service problems and creates massively long lines. read more

CAVA - Yummy made-to-order bowl, I loaded mine with veggies. - Mediterranean Near Me - Austin, Texas

Amazing service!! The food is fresh and the location is in a perfect spot with amazing views!

Great staff :) good service. Nice people and I enjoyed my time here. The environment was really great as well and the food was better

I typically give up meat for Lent and every year it seems like I find something new and this year it's Cava. While I've only eaten here once, I was quite surprised that it was so good. So, the falafel...OH EM GEE!!!! It was sssooo good! Secondly...the service. They were helpful and patient. Being that this was my first time visiting, I needed a little extra help. Also, the cashier made my day and told me I was beautiful. My half veg, half falafel bowl was very good. We went during lunch hour and it was pretty fast paced. That's always a plus when you've gotta run. read more

Workers attitude is poor. Seemed troubled that I was there. Ordered their new steak. No "outta steak". Had to order chicken. That's ok. But I can't hear him because his I don't give a flying F$&k attitude won't let him speak about the ambient noise. So tired of the BS that as customers we put up with. I haven't tried my food yet I was so unimpressed with my interaction with the staff. Will not be back. read more

CAVA - Maybe take your sign down if you don't actually have steak. - Mediterranean Near Me - Austin, Texas

If Chipotle had a Greek/Mediterranean cousin, it would be CAVA. Build your own/create your own. You can mix your salad, dip, rice and meat selections if you find it hard to choose just one option. Everything is fresh. It's a bit pricier than Chipotle but the quality is very, very good...and they have "good ice" here for your drinks. That soft, chewable nugget ice. It's different from Hummus Republic in that Hummus Republic offers Grilled Portobello Mushroom Shawarma as a protein option while CAVA doesn't offer it. But they are basically the same. Enjoy. read more

CAVA is a good place to grab a quick, healthy meal when you're downtown. We ate there before getting on Fri a show at the Paramount. It was a Tuesday night around 6pm and there was no line. Our party of 3 ordered a Greek salad and two build-your-own bowls with assorted greens, meats and toppings. The menu seemed to be emphasizing harissa when we went in, with options for harissa dips harissa chicken and harissa dressing. These were all good. I really liked the skhug dressing (roughly pronounced scoog in English), a moderately spicy sauce made with serranos, garlic, cilantro, parsley, and othwspices. Potions were large, service was friendly and prices were reasonable so all good at this CAVA . read more

This CAVA is like an ex that you can't stop going back to. It's delicious. It's tasty. The food-per-price ratio isn't half bad. But (and this is a big but) their lunch rush is consistently one of the worst dining experiences of my life. I have no clue how every single time it's lunch hour the entire restaurant falls apart, but CAVA manages to make it happen. After waiting in line for over 30 minutes two weeks in a row I figured I'd put in a to-go order, which I did. I arrived 30 minutes later to find out that it wasn't ready. All right, no matter. I can just wait in line and keep my eye on to-go. The logic was that if it wasn't ready by the time I got to the front of the line I could just ask them to make it there. So 10 minutes goes by, then 20, then 30, and then I finally get the front of the line. Everything is chaos. The employees are panicking, the patrons are suffering, the fried rice is out, the chicken is out, the jalapeños are out, the... okay, you get the point. Anyways, I opt to just not bother them and order my (now quite limited) pita bowl and pick up the to-go order at the end of my meal. My meal ends and lo-and-behold, the to-go order is still not ready. Splendid. I ask the to-go woman where it is and she informs me it'll be another 15 minutes minimum, a staggering number considering I quite literally put it in the system an hour and a half ago. I had to run so I put in a refund request and dipped. Point being, this CAVA should be a little ashamed of itself. In what world can you KNOW as a given fact that a lunch rush is going to happen and be wholly unprepared for it every. single. day. I feel like there are so many solutions to solve this problem, but instead the GM just enjoys sitting back and gawking at the chaos that unfolds anew each and every weekday. read more

I didn't know about this chain, since I've never seen one in Florida. I saw it on yelp and thought "fast casual Mediterranean? Sounds good" and so we went to check it out. The concept is like a chipotle but with different med inspired ingredients. You order at the counter and they add stuff to a bowl or pita. I liked it for exactly what it was. Fresh. Filling. Lots of options. And reasonably priced. read more

Food is really good. Service here is terrible. Nearly every time I come in the employees ignore the customers and the act like it's an inconvenience to serve customers. The food service area looks like a food bomb has gone off and no one wants to deal with it. My pita was served in the upside down lid of a to go bowl. Great location, good food. A change of leadership here could make a big difference. 2-stars read more
