Fast and fresh. Great service! Easy to order online and pick up otw home. Lots of parking too.

I've never had CAVA before until this place opened here, and I wish this was here earlier. Where has this been all my life? I always opt to make my own bowl. I switch between different proteins because there's so many different options. I've picked the Harissa Chicken, Grilled Chicken, and Falafel. I like doing the half and half and each of those proteins were delicious. They were juicy and not dry. The veggies tasted fresh, the sauces and proteins were flavorful and so tasty. Also I love how we can choose up to three different dips. I pretty much go for most of the toppings except avocado. And also the dressings!! I mix it up every time and the combinations have worked pretty well together, in harmony with everything in my bowl. It's hard to pick a favorite veggie for me because each one is so good, but I'll always get the pickled onions and fire roasted corn. For me, I have no complaints whatsoever. I always describe this place as a Chipotle but Mediterranean. I always get takeout so I can't comment on the ambiance inside. But ordering online is fairly simple and straight forward. This is one of my favorite places in the area to go and get food. Oh and also the juices are great too. I always get the Cucumber Mint Lime because it hits every single time, but I'd like to try their other juices too. I can't wait until the next time I come back here. Love you CAVA! read more

Don't get me wrong, I LOVE Cava and the food is super good... but the past couple of times that I've gone to this specific location, the service has been iffy. I understand the stress of rush hour but I don't want to pay full price for half size portions because you're going too fast. And side note to the workers: a smile towards the customer can go a long away :) read more

Good food I love the bowls. The chicken with the spicy sauce was really good. I felt healthy after I ate there!!

This was my first time visiting the brand-new CAVA here on Gunbarrel Rd, and my family and I decided to check it out for lunch. We were excited to try something fresh and healthy, and CAVA's Mediterranean flavors did not disappoint! I ordered the Harissa Avocado Bowl, and it was absolutely delicious. The vibrant mix of flavors and colors made the bowl feel like a full experience - spicy harissa honey chicken paired with the bold hot harissa vinaigrette gave it just the right amount of kick. The Crazy Feta and hummus added a creamy balance, while the avocado, fire-roasted corn, pickled onions, Persian cucumber, and feta brought freshness and texture. All of it came together beautifully over basmati rice and SuperGreens. Every bite felt fresh, flavorful, and filling. For my drink, I went with a large cup of fresh lemonade, which was the perfect refreshing balance to the spice in my bowl. The service was quick and friendly, with the staff taking the time to walk us through the menu since it was our first visit. The ambiance is modern, bright, and welcoming - perfect for a casual family lunch but also a great spot if you're on the go. Fun fact: CAVA actually started in 2006 in Washington, D.C., and has grown into a nationwide favorite for healthy Mediterranean cuisine. They focus on fresh, customizable meals and even make many of their dressings and dips in-house! Overall, I'm so glad we gave this place a try. This new Gunbarrel location is a fantastic addition to the area, and I'm already looking forward to coming back and trying other bowls and pitas on the menu. Highly recommend! read more

It was my first visit here and I am pretty impressed. It's sorta like chipotle with Mediterranean food. It was really loud though with the hard floors etc and I had a hard time communicating with the staff. read more

CAVA - Mediterranean Near Me - Chattanooga, Tennessee

I have only had cava one time previously in an airport and was in love, so when I saw the sign I started happy dancing. It did not disappoint. The quality of the food, the friendly and professional customer service and cleanliness was amazing. Then the beverage section of fresh juices is a must. I have done both dine and take out and have zero complaints so far. read more

Great new addition to the area. Think Chipotle meets Mediterranean but 1,000 times better. The staff is friendly/helpful, nice natural lighting, fresh ingredients you can pile on, and they have natural sodas and juices. It is a great place for people trying to eat healthier or have diet limitations. We will definitely be back! read more

CAVA - Build your own pita - Mediterranean Near Me - Chattanooga, Tennessee

Very clean, very nice people, somewhat quick service. Now the bad part, I came here for my first healthy meal of my diet. I ended up with something that looked and tasted disgusting and I also was sick for a week after eating it. -- so I guess I did lose some weight for eating this food but not the way I wanted. Let's just say I'll never be back. read more

First time here, was not disappointed. Great food and amazing service from Mack and Cash! Store was clean and tidy!

Yikes, I am shocked at the positive reviews. I paid almost $17 for a bowl of crappy iceberg lettuce with a few tablespoons of some toppings and smattering of steak bites. They shove a pita in your face while you're ordering and just threw some cucumbers and tomatoes on there. It wasn't very good and the presentation was horrible. The kids at the start and register were friendly but the people in the middle making the food left a lot to be desired. I'm sorry but I can't believe anyone likes this place. I don't see any chance that I will ever return willingly. read more

CAVA is sooooo good I just wish there was one closer lol - so fresh, so versatile. I would go every day if I could read more

I can't comment on the service or restaurant itself because the food was brought into my work by a vendor, but OMG, the FOOD!! I had a steak bowl with the red pepper humus and harissa dressing. It was absolutely delicious!! There was a ton of steak in it, which was tender and juicy. There were many veggies including cucumbers, grape tomatoes, red cabbage, and some lettuce. Crumbled feta topped it off. I love Mediterranean food and this was a nice twist on a salad. We had leftovers so I ate another steak salad a couple of days later and it was still delicious. I'll definitely be back and check out the restaurant itself. I'd love to see what it's like inside and how their service is. read more

We purchased a steak and chicken bowls. We both enjoyed our meal. We purchased hummus along with pita bread also. I feel the hummus needs more lime to get that acidity taste I love but it was tasty. read more

Amazing Mediterranean hot spot, simple and delicious, lots of variety to build your own plate, the staff was amazing on recommending the right assortment of meat and vegetables. The service is impeccable, friendly and attentive. The place is quiet and welcoming, a yo go to in Chattanooga! read more

Everything was fresh, and tasted good. The restaurant was clean and well maintained. Service was friendly. The only thing that I could say could be changed was the huge amount of sauce or salad dressing used. It literally poured out of the sandwich. Otherwise a good option for lunch read more

Went there on a Friday afternoon. Place not too busy. Service prompt and welcoming. Great options of wraps vs bowels. We tried the harissa avocado chicken bowl. Nice combination of flavors but meats warm not hot. Steak feta wrap was the star of the review especially if you love feta. The chicken and garlic again nice contrast of taste. The meats in the sandwiches warm not hot and at times lost with all the other components in the sandwich. Still overall nicer fresh presentation. Not greasy. I would like to try falafel or spicy lamb next time. Prices reasonable for prices. read more

We made our very first visit to Cava! We walked into a clean space and got acquainted with an attractive menu. There were a lot of appealing Mediterranean selections, but we finally settled on a couple of "Build Your Own" Bowls. Although it is BYO, the Cava team member that assisted us had strong preferences on how it should be layered. We should have passed on the attractive specialty beverages. One sip and we determined that each had an appealing name, but were really "watered down". We sat down and really enjoyed our bowls of veggies and falafel. There is a lot of potential at Cava. Check it out! read more
