I am reviewing the location across from Wholefoods on corporate. Cava is a favorite for my Husband and Me. The food is always fresh, prepared per directions, the staff at this location is helpful, accomodating, kind, attentive, and personable. I have never had an issue with our orders. I have never encourated a staff member who didn't approach their job with kindness, they make you feel like family. I recommend CAVA ALL of the time to others and their feedback to me is that they enjoyed their meal and the warmth and knowledge of the staff. read more

I genuinely loved every little thing that I experienced here today at this cava, wonderful, delicious food, serving size and flavors, the customer service and cleanliness read more

Went in for a late lunch and no one was there. Walked right up to order. Decided on the avocado harissa chicken bowl and blueberry lavender tea. Everything was so clean! It's really just a made to order place and you go down the line and tell them what you want or either order straight from their menu if you want no changes. They have the sweetest employees and super helpful. The bowl was full of flavor and was surprisingly fresh! The side of pita bread was small but did order pita chips and both were good. I had half left over and they have carry out bags and tops for your bowls. Now usually I shy away from these type of places because I'm never sure about the order process and that's just my own experiences but this was easy and fast and I'll definitely try more. Also, all the teas were fantastic read more

The last 2 times I ordered food online at the Highland location they got my order wrong. So I tried to call today to place a phone order. A man answered the phone but refused to take my order even after I explained that they kept getting it wrong when I ordered online. Rude and unhelpful. read more

Worst cava location I have ever visited. Employees are overly rude, portions absolutely suck they charged me for double chicken and didn't give me double chicken, manager sucks, cooks suck, the food doesn't taste the same as other locations, place is disgustingly filthy, Just go to the Perkins location. They should close this down. If I could give 0 starts I would. read more

I had an amazing first experience, I got a kids bowl with grilled chicken, corn, and the tomato/vinegar mix on top and everything was seasoned perfectly. Also the drink options were really good, I got the strawberry citrus juice and it tasted great. But the best part about my experience was how amazing of a server I had! Liz was so extremely helpful and nice, she was patient with my questions and made sure to fill my plate up!! :) read more

My lunch was delicious! Riley took care of me and greeted me with a smile that just brightened my day. She answered all the questions I had, which were a lot, with no complaints! Will definitely be back. read more

I love the place and service! Very clean, and all the food tasted fresh! I loved how they kept the lettuce! You can visually see it behind the counter, it's labeled with the different blends, and it's covered to keep the refrigeration in and germs away. The employees were fantastic and helpful! I created my vegan bowl, and it was delicious! I did not take a picture of my salad; I got carried away eating it! I had the eggplant dip/garnish (it's good, y'all), mixed veggies (with Brussels sprouts), and vegan falafel with other fresh toppings. I'm glad it's close to home!!! Next visit, I will take a pic of my food!!! read more

Cava was good, but I wasn't impressed! I went to this location, and they were out of some items like the coleslaw and hummus. I went on two separate days and they were out of more things that I wanted to try. We originally got the blueberry lemonade but they were out of the classic and the blueberry, so we got the mint cucumber one and it was okay! They were also out of the corn, the original hummus, and the wonton crackers. I understand it's a busy business, but try to keep things in stock please! :( I did appreciate the cleanliness and the area where you can pack your own bag and utensils and take it to go. The service was very nice and the pita chips were so addicting. I got the grains and grains bowl, very filling and love the harissa chicken. read more

Always a great option for quick, healthy fresh food. Love that it's customizable and many of the dressings are vegan.

Cheers to another great option for good and healthy food! I appreciate that the menu isn't exorbitant and from the website it seems it may change seasonally. Fast casual restaurants are so convenient and affordable. The vibe here is modern and chill. The service was friendly and attentive. I had the lentil avocado bowl, which was very filling in spite of being vegetarian. There were so many amazing flavors I tasted something different with each bite. There are also lots of unique drink options. If you're into Mediterranean pitas and bowls, I don't think you'll be disappointed here. I look forward to my next trip! read more

GET THE PITA CHIPS! Now that that's out the way lol. I was excited to hear Cava was coming to Baton Rouge. I've visited several times and the food is always good. The staff is always friendly and answers any questions I may have. The restaurant is always clean. The menu configurations are endless. I get something different every time I go. The pita chips are delicious and I love the drink options as well. read more

CAVA - Food bar. - Mediterranean Near Me - Baton Rouge, Louisiana

Ordered lunch, received half of my order. Could not get the local phone number to go through. Called the 800 number and was told they would reimburse only 50% of the bill. Problem is that the missing items were the bulk of the total bill. Called the delivery driver, who stated she received a sealed bag and was unable to verify all items were present. Will never order from them again. I have never had a business unwilling to correct their error. I would have picked up my items if their phone was working. Horrible business. read more

Absolutely love every meal from Cava that I have had. There are a couple of locations in Baton Rouge, LA that I have tried, and I've tried one in Austin, Texas. The ambiance of the restaurants is pretty basic for a chain restaurant, and the service is a little above par for a place like this. Great place to eat for a Chipotle-style Mediterranean meal. I recommend! read more

Love restaurants with a different menu from the norm. This food is great. Can't wait to go back. Zoe's replacement in their old location has hit a home run. read more

Cava is a much needed addition to Baton Rouge. The food is incredible and and place is brand new. I go to college at LSU, and the location at Highland Village is right on my way home!! We were greeted by Edwina who was amazing. She went out of her way to make our experience the best it could be, all with a smile and great energy. I'm definitely coming back. It's a treat! read more

Got food poisoning from old broccoli stems in pita meal, will not be back ! Quality of chicken and veggies gone downhill! I miss Zoe's

very friendly staff and the restaurant was very clean. there was a mix up with my order due to my mistake and the staff was awesome about helping me to resolve the situation. thank you read more

2 stars might be generous. The first couple of times we ate at Cava, several months ago, it was great. But it seems times have changed. When we unpacked our to go order we found that they forgot the pita bread that was clearly listed on our receipt. My salad looked like someone had already eaten most of it. thankfully I had lettuce on hand at home and was able to add to the sad pile of toppings to make it an actual salad. My daughter's chicken and cucumber pita had 5 tiny pieces of cucumber and a mountain of chicken - surely chicken is more expensive than cucumber?? It didn't even make sense. Overall very disappointing. I hope they can restore their former level of quality. read more

Finally went to check out this place for lunch and enjoyed the Falafel Pita. It was so good and huge! Enough for two meals. I had a bite of my friends pita chips and immediately got up to order some for myself. Oh and the teas! Love the Cucumber Mint Lime one. Already scoping out the menu for next time. Maybe next time I'll take some pictures before devouring. read more

Great food but incredibly slow service. That's usually half the experience for me. It shouldn't take 15 min to make you a bowl with only 3 costumers in-front of me. And the girl who served didn't even have the courtesy to say hi or smile. Common Cava, got a good thing going here but get your employees better people trained read more

I love CAVA!!!! Extremely excited that they are here in Baton Rouge! The honey harissa chicken and crazy feta will always keep me coming back! It was awesome seeing Edwina here at Highland Village for the opening she is always a smiling and welcoming face since she welcomed us to the Birmingham location a few months ago as we were passing through! read more

Consistently good branch of the Cava family tree. Promptly served meals are always fresh

First time here as another person who has to be dairy free suggested it. I got the spicy chicken + avocado pita and it was wonderful. I will definitely be going back. The service was great as they let me see a list that stated all allergens and reassurances me that nothing I ordered(took one item off the pita) was dairy read more

Food portions are very inconsistent and are getting smaller and smaller. Quality of food is getting worse, rice is served under cooked at times and items are often missed on order. From a service perspective lady was rude at counter when asked about portion sizes changing and refused to discuss. Do not eat here unless you are good with uncertainty. read more

Food was really good and fresh really enjoyed my bowl will be returning for another bowl and letting people know about cava read more

Love Love the choices as a vegan . I get bowls and not disappointed after 2 visits. Fits into our busy schedules read more

Service was not up to par. The employees need more training on food options provided. I requested the same bowl I have many times at two Texas locations and was met with many upcharges. I was thinking how suspicious is that, I never have paid twice for lettuce. I ordered half mixed greens have lettuce and was charge for extra greens. The employee had to pull an index card to fix my order. There also was no complementary pita bread. I mentioned to the staff and thought, just forget it, I'll tell you in the review. Do not recommend this location read more

The man behind the counter was friendly. The establishment was clean The food was not worth the $$ read more

Literally so good. My favorite place ever!!!!! Food is so fresh, hot, and the staff is amazing!!!! So happy we finally have them in Louisiana!!!! RUN to CAVA!!! read more

The Good: The food is usually delicious. I did like the Pitas and their bowls are very tasty. The Bad: I have ordered from this location on three separate occasions, and each time there was a problem with the order. Either some item was made incorrectly or something we ordered wasn't in the provided order at all. This is a new location, so I originally chalked it up to new-staff problems. The Ugly: The last time I ordered one of the pitas had a large, unmistakable moldy patch on it. This was not a small patch or something that could be easily overlooked or missed. It covered a significant portion of the pita. This made me nervous about their kitchen food safety protocols. In summary, after giving this location several chances, it appears that this restaurant can't quite meet the standards one would expect of such a large chain. Would not recommend. read more

I love Cava and so far so good with this location. I personally like Cava better than Zoe's. Tastier and more bag for buck than Zoe's however the bowls are not cheap but nothing is cheap anymore. I can't eat an entire bowl in one sitting; i look forward to leftovers. I always get a bowl and the bowls I've created are delicious. I bought a bowl today. I was in and out in 2 minutes. Only downside is it's drab and boring inside. Not a cool environment to dine in. read more

Love cava so no complaints about the food but the service at the highland location is baffling. I went multiple times where the workers would often ration a bowl like we're in an apocalypse when i'm paying $15 for it. Those times, I simply just asked to give a little more than what they are throwing in there. However, a week ago or so, I went in with my boyfriend and there was 3 workers: a taller girl, a shorter girl, and one guy. The taller girl was obviously busy with a to go order and walking around doing HER JOB. The shorter girl was eating the pita chips and refused to make eye contact with us because she did not want to help us. Her back was turned and was talking while eating with her male coworker. The guy (he's usually the one whose very skimpy with the bowls and just throws ingredients in there), also didn't care to acknowledge us when we walk in and continued talking to the shorter girl. The short girl then just walked into the back kitchen because she didn't want to do her job but only talk and eat. She even pretended to do stuff like looking at receipts so she wouldn't help us. It was obvious she wanted to only do the to go orders and not help us and was waiting for her male coworker to help us. We stood there awkwardly for what felt like 6 minutes waiting for them to help us. The guy finally put his gloves back on (eye-twitchingly slow as he continues to talk to the girl and still not looking at us). He walks over to us nonchalantly like he wasn't ignoring us. He then proceeds to scoop half a spoon of rice and throws like 6 romaine lettuce in total in my bowl. The bowl is usually filled to the top a bit but somehow my $15 bowl was only half way despite all that I put on it. Literally half was just air. The food barely even touch the lid of the bowl. All you have to do is scoop food in a damn bowl and somehow you mess that up too? Then, he was so lazy he didn't want to get a new bottle of dressing so he just sprayed whatever was left in the bottle and call that a drizzle of dressing. After paying, he completely leaves the counter without 1) bags because we ordered to go 2) give me my drink cup. The taller girl who usually does her job had to bag our order for us. We left and finished our food in like 3 bites. Waste of money. This location really needs to reassess their workers before it will becomes the downfall of it. For now, I will have to drive all the way to perkins rowe to get cava. read more

Super excited to try this new restaurant. Put my order in online. Drive to pick it up, the order did not go thru. When you call, the phone number goes nowhere to even call and order. This was a terrible first impression. Fix your phone and fix your website. read more
