Recently went to Cava for me and my daughter. I decided to order online and get a bowl and she got a kids meal. It didn't take long for it to be ready and the order was perfectly correct. The inside was absolute chaos This location is extremely busy inside, which is usually why I placed the order online. read more

They simply never miss. The food was fresh and flavorful. I always get the chicken and rice because I'm very simple. I don't like too much extra stuff in my bowl and I substitute the arugula for the Romain lettuce. Teacher I had the blueberry lemonade. My bill was about $15. It was worth it. I will definitely be back again. read more

CAVA - Gotta get the pita chips! (After I mixed it all up) - Mediterranean Near Me - Brandon, Florida

Now normally I love me some Cava but today was just not it! I came on a Friday afternoon and was able to order quickly. It wasn't crowded at all. The employees that were there were nice and friendly. I ordered a greens and grains bowl. This comes with a base, 3 dips, 1 protein, unlimited toppings. I chose the grilled steak as my protein bc I'm tired of chicken. Worst decision ever! Idk if they use 3D meat or something (totally kidding but wth) EVERY single piece of steak i had was inedible. So tough to chew. I spit out every piece. Im so disappointed because it's an up charge and u spend your hard earned money expecting good food. This was not it. Everything else was good just don't get the steak! I hope i don't get sick! read more

CAVA - Greens + Grains Bowl - Mediterranean Near Me - Brandon, Florida

This is my first time visiting this popular chain! I liked the atmosphere and ambiance as soon as I stepped inside. The costumer service was great as this was my first time through the line and I didn't feel rushed. The server explained everything to me and I felt like I was ready to make an informed decision about my meal choices. I was excited to know that their protein choices included lamb. The choices reminded me a little of Fresh Kitchen. All in all I enjoyed my meal and the variety of selections and I will most certainly be back! read more

When I think of bowls, Cava is one of the first places that comes to mind. As a bowl lover, I have to say that theirs are amazing. One of my favorites is the Harissa Steak Bowl, and I always add corn and avocado for extra flavor. The hummus is delicious, and the cucumber mint drink is just perfect light and refreshing. The place also has a great atmosphere and a comfortable setup, with seating available both indoors and outdoors. I'll definitely be back! read more

Why does Cava continue to employ people that clearly don't want to work? I come weekly for my kiddos and it's their favorite. Food is always great but the service we receive in a 3 min span is insane. Katrina looked at me and was annoyed that someone had the audacity to place an order. Like girl it's 12pm. If you don't wanna work DONT. I'm not a difficult customer. I'm order is easy and basic. Another girl that is shorter and always has her yellow headband is the same. I walked in last week 40 min until closing. She sighed 4 times that I had walked in before closing (Mind you... I still had 40 min and my order took 2 minutes) it got to the point where I had to ask her multiple times if she's ok. IF YOU DONT WANT TO WORK THEN DONT! The girl with purple hair was very friendly and pleasant. And the other staff seemed very nice. It's just a shame that I will no longer go to this cava read more

Enjoyed my first experience at Cava. Love all the side and protein options they offer. I had the crispy falafel grain bowl. The falafel was crispy and flavorful. I went with the Romaine and added the basmati rice and it was delicious! New fave unlocked. read more

CAVA - Crispy Falafel Grains Bowl - Mediterranean Near Me - Brandon, Florida

Cava is a delicious Mediterranean style fast food place. Similar to the service at Chipotle and Qdoba, they serve bowls and pitas. The food usually is really good and pita chips fresh. I went in the later hours so it was a risk, but I'd definitely go back! They are in a location that's close to lots of shopping. They have plenty of parking. read more

The first time we visited Cava, it was good. This visit, not so much. We walked in to a fairly busy place after 7pm. We stood around for a bit before a girl walked over and didn't say anything. We had to ask her if she was ready to take our order. She said yes but she never welcomed or communicated with us in a friendly way. We ordered a bowl and a pita. When we got to the meat, we were told it would be 10 minutes for steak to be ready. On top of that, they were out of several toppings. We also wanted to order the limited edition garlic ranch pita chips but those were also not available. Once the meat was ready I walked back up. The young man that rang us up didn't put any toppings on my pita. I asked if it came with anything and he said oh, yea, I forgot. He then tried to wrap the pita up but couldn't figure it out. Both people working behind the counter that helped us seemed to be off. Either it was their first day on the job or they were on something that made them nearly incapable of doing their job. In the end, the food was decent. $40 for a bowl, a pita, pita chips and two drinks. We'd come back but not in any hurry. read more

Quick trip to Tampa Bay and Cava made it just a tad better. I arrived 30 minutes prior to close. The crew was cleaning and organizing but jumped in to take my order with no complaints. Make your own bowl is the way to go here. Super greens, white rice, harissa chicken, hummus and other tasty sauces along with lots of pickled veggies and other Mediterranean inspired add-ins make this the perfect spot for me. Food is fresh and tasty. Service was friendly and the price was just right. Typical casual dining experience with plenty of seating and a clean atmosphere. read more

Always love leaving the gym and heading to Cava for lunch on the weekends. It's quick and easy! Location is nice so I can do some shopping afterwards too! I usually go with the harissa chicken and my bf will get the lamb. Always get the pita chips! read more

CAVA - CAVAAAAAA - Mediterranean Near Me - Brandon, Florida

The lady who made my bowl was rude, and seemed like she didn't enjoy her job which is fine!! just don't show the customer that, started throwing shit on my bowl without clarifying what my bowl was prior to her coming up to dress it, asked me what i wanted on it in a way i thought she already knew what I had, so i said everything and she literally put everything on my bowl... so i stopped her and fixed it myself and gave it back. but was genuinely rude. mind you all of this was a communication error by the person who formed the base of the bowl by not putting the square down under it with the recipe. don't know if they were newwwww or what but it wasn't it. shout out gianna for being kind and minding her business read more

Good is always fresh! Staff is always extremely helpful and kind. New pita chip flavors are simply amazin. Shout out to one of the best chefs in Cava Corina aka Cee for always smiling and serving up some good hot and fresh food. My bowls are always great! read more

This is the worse location in Florida. The entire staff is lazy. They all looked like they absolutely hate it there. They all stood around looking crazy with no customer service skills, no cleaning skills, and no cooking skills. The girl literally gave me my hot food without a bag. The hot greasy pita chips were very nasty. I will never do business with any Cava again. read more

The staff here were very sweet :) the woman helping me and the other woman helping the other customer were very patient in explaining some of the new items + the other customer was a first timer and I think they had a very enjoyable experience! The food tasted super fresh and the drinks were well-stocked and refreshing. Refilled my cup a few times. Would bring my laptop here to do work as it's a cozy environment. read more

Had my first ever Cava experience at this Brandon location. Corina's service made it perfect. Not only was she knowledgable about the menu, but the pita was amazing. Will be back. read more

Ugh! I love CAVA but this Brandon location. Please get it together! No reason people place orders at a designated time and still wait for 15-20 mins and the order to be missing items requested. This by far is the worst experience I've had, I'll just stick to the Tampa location. The Brandon staff seemed off, slow, and incoherent. Company leaders, stop meeting staff quota and take initiative into your company. read more

I've been to many cava restaurants. Most in the DC Metro area and was thrilled to come across one here in Brandon,FL. Practically ran to place an order cause I've missed the restaurant since moving to Florida. Unfortunately the service at this one was rather surly and the proportions she'd ALLOW me to have were significantly smaller than any other cava where l've eaten. Hopefully I'll find another Cava in the area that will measure up to my memory. read more

The food here is so yummy and healthy! The service is great and the staff are always so kind. Very clean and nice inside. Highly recommend!

I've been to this location roughly 4x now and as a CAVA lover, this location is disappointing. I don't know what it is about this location but it's always dirty. Tables are never cleaned, the area where you get your drinks is always wet and disorganized. The service isn't much better either. I've been given attitude twice and once had a girl roll her eyes at me when I explained an allergy. Is the food good? Yes. It always hits the spot but the cleanliness of the store needs to be improved and so does customer service. Overall: 3 stars read more

Nice location in a shopping center. This was the first time i've been to cava so I ordered online for pickup. they have their own line of drinks/sodas in the beverage area so that was cool. The food was very good, i think i lucked out and got fresh pita chips but they were great! no complaints and i'll definitely be back in the future. read more

This was my first time here and I can say the setting is nicely designed. There are small eating areas but it seemed like most people ordered out. The food was really good and filling . Some staff were nice and some looks as though they didn't want to be bothered( maybe an off day ) but... anyway. I would definitely return for the food. read more

THe food was awesome espeically the chips and those cinamon chips!! i need 10 more next time

What a fun place if you're looking for a healthy bite to eat, I would say, is a take on chipotle, however, less Mexican more Mediterranean salad bar. They have salad, bowls, rice, bowls, and pita wraps. I had the Greek salad which was very tasty and fresh. They also have some fresh lemonade juices which are very tasty. I enjoyed cava and definitely will be back. read more

When the line extends to the door on a random Thursday night at 8:30pm, then you can almost guarantee it's worth it. I ordered the Greek Pita. It was packed with flavor and honestly the portion is enough to share but I'm way too greedy for that nonsense. I would suggest going on an empty stomach and be prepared to skip next meal as it's filling. Pricey but quality food tends to be. The ingredients are fresh and made to order in front of you and you can customize accordingly. They have a variety of teas and lemonade flavors that you should replace your soda with...just do it! They offer bowls and pitas with a Mediterranean twist. Healthy is on your side, unless you get crazy with the pita chips and dips. If you just want to get your tummy teased, you can opt for a kids meal too! It was a nice portion controlled option to try the menu. I didn't do it this time but the people behind me did....next time...I might for the #bougiebudget. read more

Had a great lunch today. I had the Sweet and Spicy Chicken Giro and my wife had a grilled chicken bowl. My giro was delicious. Just the right amount of heat to feel it in my mouth but not make my nose water. :-) they didn't have ranch for my wife's bowl but they had plenty of other sauces. The portion sizes were huge. There was a really good drink selection as well. read more

Decided to give this place a try after shopping the other day & now we have been twice in a week. It's become a new local favorite. Love the healthy, fresh ingredients and customizable bowls etc. This area needs more places like this. I adore the flavor combos of the falafel wrap. You also have the choice of indoor or outdoor seating here which is nice. read more

First time trying this location. It didn't disappoint. So this place is located where Moe's Southwest uses to be. Here they sell Mediterranean plates. You can either go for a bowl or pita. I had the Chichen and Rightrice and my wife had the spicy chicken and avocado. She said it was spicy, at least the "dressing" they used made it spicy. My bowl tasted wonderful, and my wife said she enjoyed her pita very much. Definitely will come back for more. read more

For reference this is my second time going this week! It's that good. I had my dad try some of my bowl on Wednesday and come Saturday it was the lunch of choice. The byo bowl aspect appeals to me because I can mix it up till I find my perfect balance and it's perfect for dietary concerns because there is something for everyone which is perfect! The service is always fast and friendly you are in and out of you do take out. I don't think this location anticipated such a positive turn out because there is not nearly enough seating inside. However, it's a staple take out place for me so of course I will be back. read more

I finally tried Cava today. I had a customizable bowl and while the portion sizes are smaller than your average Chipotle (not exactly a bad thing) the flavors were AMAZING!!! I LOVED everything in my bowl and cannot wait to go back and try more of their items. The staff was friendly and the restaurant was very clean as well. Very open with lots of seating. read more

WARNING!! STAY AWAY FROM THIS PLACE! The first time I went to this fast-food place I wasn't very satisfied. The staff was rude, the amount of food wasn't the best, the dining room was dirty (tables/floor), no napkins forks or spoons. There were barely any drinks left in the drink dispensers. I decided to go back to give it a second change but, I had the same of even worse experience. I don't know why the workers have to be so rude. I will never go back! read more

Excellent service and food is freshly prepared... do not miss the pita chips as a side
