First time newbie and was a little confused with how it works. Staff could of been a little more helpful but they were quick to move the line. Look at the menu ahead of time so you know what to do. Also get a pita on the side to enjoy along side the bowl. Its extra but worth it. I ordered a bowl and I did half and half with greens and brown rice. Next time I will be sure that they seperate the two instead of putting the rice on top of the greens. I did two proteins half chicken and half sweet potatoe. Then I added a few toppings and sauces. It was so good. I washed ir down with a lavendar lemonade. The only reason I'm giving 4 stars instead of 5 is that and my bowl could have used a little more protein for the price. Staff could also be more helpful for the newbies. 5 stars for the drink options. Lots of special drinks.

I stopped by CAVA for a quick bite of something healthy, and because it's been a while since I've gotten it and wanted to try it out again. This location is pretty big and clean. I'm also glad they kind of increased the font on menus so my blind ass can actually read it and order food (I stg it was like 10pt font on the menus on the wall). I ordered the harissa chicken power bowl which came with harissa honey chicken, white sweet potato, crazy feta, hummus, avocado, new sumac slaw, new power greens, skhug, and yogurt dill sauce. Refreshing and delicious while fairly hearty from the potato and avocado. At $20 a bowl though... kind of rough for the amount of food you get. Service was good, they even offered to replace the feta with hummus when I asked for no feta.

First time at Cava. I was on a limited dietary intake. I ordered just the rice and chicken. The chicken was delicious and tasty. The food was crazy and warm. The service was excellent and the service was willing to answer all my questions. There is plenty of eating area inside and on the patio. Definitely will be back.

Although there was a long wait (25 minutes) I love this spot! Their food is always fresh and fulfilling. I recommend the Honey Harissa chicken and the classic pita chips.

This was my third visit to this CAVA location. The first two experiences were okay. This time I experienced great customer service and no attitudes from the employees. I will be honest employees usually don't like it when customer use rewards. They give attitude or pretend they don't know how the reward system works. This time everything went smoothly with no issues. For food, I really enjoyed my chicken + rice bowl. Everything tasted good. Food was flavorful and portion wise was really good. For ambiance, this location has indoor and outdoor seating area. There are plenty of seating area inside and tables are clean. The only issue is parking. It is usually hard to find a parking spot close by or in front of the store. If you don't mind walking, I would suggest park farther and walking to the store.

I recently visited Cava and had a great experience overall. If you're looking for a quick, fresh Mediterranean-style meal, this spot is definitely worth checking out for a quick healthy meal. You can order your meal in person and online for pickup. Cava offers a variety of pita wraps and salad bowls, with both curated options and the ability to fully customize your own bowl. I appreciated having the flexibility to either choose one of their recommended combinations or build something from scratch depending on what I was craving. The ingredients tasted fresh, and there were plenty of toppings and spreads to choose from, which made it easy to create a meal with my favorite ingredients. The location I visited is in a great spot and has both indoor and outdoor seating, which is a nice bonus. It's a convenient place to grab lunch or dinner, whether you want to sit inside or enjoy the weather outside. In their team, Luigi guided me through the build your own pita process. If you don't know what you would like, ask them how they might build theirs. Dejah gave me an amazing service at the very end with the most glorious wrapping job. I got a LOADED pita and she wrapped it with ease. Overall, Cava is a solid choice if you're in the mood for a customizable Greek style meal with fresh ingredients and plenty of options! You have to try their Pita chips with the Garlic dressing and Skhug.

Chicken + Rice bowls
Bethany R.

Stopped here while driving on the 5 north. Parking for this area was really hard, kind of a nightmare so the location is hard to get to. After we finally parked, We waited in line for about 15 mins which felt a bit long, there was only 2 people in front of us. The seemed to have a lot of online orders that take priority. The workers themselves were fine, not overly friendly but just doing their job. The food itself was not great, we got 2 menu chicken bowls instead of a pick the items yourself style. The disappointment came biting into the rice and finding pieces that were so hard I was worried about breaking a tooth. Both our bowls had this rice issue. But we were already back on the road, no point to go back to get a new bowl etc. I was excited to stop at cava because when they first opened in Orange County the high quality of the food and flavors was amazing, so that makes the low quality for the food so disappointing

Wow! Do you see what is in this bowl? It's not a normal food bug. It's a HUGE dragon fly!

This is my favorite Cava! I came in a Justin and Angie always make me the most amazing bowl! I literally just ask them to make a bowl, chefs choice and it's always a hit. (See the pic of what I had today) I also love that they have outdoor seating.

I come to this CAVA frequently! The staff is always super helpful and friendly. Today I especially appreciated Mykara's help at the cashier because I went up a few times to ask for things. The food is always fresh and hot and the staff does a great job with upkeep of the serving station. I personally have not been eating meat much for the month of January, and have come discover that the falafel is really tasty! The new (limited) sumac sour cream and onion pita chips are a hit in my book! The outside patio and the indoor seating are both cute and quaint. I will be back! This time I had the pleasure of bringing my mother and she loved it all!

I always enjoy coming here for lunch. They have so many options for a bowl. The veggies are so fresh. And the dips and sides are so flavorful. They have a great variety of protein options- I enjoy the grilled chicken and getting the crazy feta and their pita chips. Service is quick and friendly. Check it out next time you are in the Empire Center

Chicken + Rice Salad Bowl

It was my first time. I wanted to try something new and always see CAVA bags on social media. I didn't know what to expect. I did a build your own bowl. Spinach, rice, chicken, veggies, avocado, and (I forgot the name of the dressing). It was fresh and the veggies were better than the chicken. The dressing was delicious. It was a little pricey considering the serving size. But definitely worth the try.

Doesn't look as good as it tastes.

Food is pretty tasty here, I like building your own to pick out what I prefer in my bowl. I opted for the falafel and veggies, lost a star because I think we should get more than 2 pieces of falafel though. Liked all the sauces too and food tasted fresh. Will definitely be back and recommend if you enjoy Mediterranean food. Not ideal parking situation and sorta hard to find, they're kinda tucked in at least from where I parked. Decent portion and price.

I brought my friend here for her birthday. We sat down for 40 minutes waiting for the food to come…read more While I overheard the host tell the customer who just came in their food would be here in 15 minutes. I went up to the register to ask the server if our food was almost ready and he said "yeah, you guys have been her for awhile let me check". The same employee comes back to our table and tells us that their system was down and that our order was never placed. This was 11/27/2024. I thought I was over exaggerating so this was never written back in 2024. I am here again 3/ 15/2026, sad to say that a similar thing happened to me again. Over a year later and I am here patiently waiting for my food as I'm watching them bring out other people's food that came in after me. My order was placed 15:57. Thank god, I got up after 30mins to ask what was the status of my food. Their girl who appears to be shift lead saw me standing at the front and asked a guy who was here for a pick up how she could help him. She then walked away and left me standing at the desk. Thankfully, this younger gentleman (Coal) noticed me and asked how he could help. I told him I wanted to check the status of my food. He then went to the register and said he didn't see my order. It wasn't til this point that the blonde girl decided she was going to help me. She refunded my food, but how do you replace someone's time. I hope this place can fix whatever issue this or or is it plain racism as some workers pick and chose what customers deserve their attention.

I usually come right before the dinner time crowds so the restaurant is empty most of the time. Today I decided to try their protein bowl which is a menu item only offered during stated hours which i believe is 11am-4pm. The description of the dish sounded up my alley so i decided to give it a try. With the restaurant being empty, this bowl took longer than expected to arrive at my table. The server even said a light hearted joke about the time it took. No biggie to me, at least I know the meat will be piping hot. What arrived at my table was a pleasant surprise. Half brown rice, half kale Caesar salad with one skewer of shish kebab. As seen in the picture the bowl features a sole 3 pieces of beef, with onions and tomatoes between each piece. For the price of $17, I guess this is the standard for today's time. Oh well at least my late lunch will be on the healthier side as for portion size. But the real deal was the meat itself. Usually with beef kebab you tend to find places using filet or flap meat, a more tender cut. This is more enjoyable and packs better flavor. THIS on the other hand was definitely a tougher cut of meat maybe shoulder or top sirloin. I struggled really hard to cut it into pieces, and even harder to chew. After reading other recent reviews, this has been noticed by a decent number of patrons. Unfortunately with being able to find Mediterranean food readily easily in the city of Glendale, I will be more inclined to frequent other restaurants after this experience.
