    Chicken + Rice
    Christy M.

    I really like the food here. The service was okay... not terrible, but also not stellar... [[HIGHLIGHT]]the ambiance is what you'd expect from a go to the counter and order restaurant... it's fine.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] It's efficient, quick, and a more healthy option than fast food and I appreciate that!

    Food was delicious per usual! The service is always friendly and I enjoy a good take out spot! [[HIGHLIGHT]]You can eat inside but the food is delicious![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]This was the biggest and cleanest Cava I've ever been to![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We stopped by for a quick dinner and I was impressed. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It was fairly empty when we came but it was closer to closing.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We were assisted quickly and didn't have any issues. I built a bowl and loved it! Parking was a breeze and I'd definitely come back to this location. I'm used to going to the Cava in Plaza Midwood and it's super nice too. So, I was happy to see another location that is closer to me that's just as nice. My food was amazing, per usual. Can't wait to go back!

    I really enjoy eating here. The combinations with greens, grains, toppings, dressings are endless. I love the pickled onions. The employees were patient. The ordering process can be difficult your time but they help guide you through. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The atmosphere is nice.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The place is clean and neat.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's well lit.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Parking is convenient.

    Greek Chicken wrap
    Elaina M.

    I was hesitant on trying Cava. I'm not really a fan of line food but I will have to say the food was very fresh tasting. I opted for the Greek Chicken pita wrap which had a lot of good flavor. My friends each got a chicken rice bowl and I think their portion size was pretty skimpy. It may be the server they had because other dishes being made with other employees were definitely bigger. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant was very clean and had options for seating large groups is needed.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I'm not sure I would make it a regular stop because for the money I would want more than just a pita sandwich for my $12 but it was tasty.

    Harissa Avocado Bowl
    Crystal B.

    I've been twice so far and ordered the Harissa Avocado bowl both times. It's pretty spicy so the second time they offered me a garlic sauce which lowered the heat and made it more enjoyable. Chicken is juicy. Avocado is fresh. Crazy Feta is yum. Service was good. They're willing to customize however you want. The place was busy. It's not cheap at about $15 for a bowl, but fresh good ingredients and flavor. It feels like a more upscale mediterranean Chipotle.

    If you love fresh food you have to walk in this place. It has all of it in one stop, rice, pita, chicken, hummus, lettuce, greens, cabbage, olives, etc, etc. I have ate here about 6 times already since they opened. They run out of food a lot?!. Bummer. Maybe that is a good thing for them? Maybe understaffed?. Once it was pita, another time chicken, this time the garlic dressing. Machine was out of ice. Inspector was present? (You have the try it. That's the best dressing out of all of em) Delicious food nonetheless. My favorite bowl is the Harrisa avocado bowl. Order without the hot stuff because if not it will be extra spicy. So many great drinks to try but the Blueberry lavender is my top pick.

    As much as I am not a fan of Greek, this place does it really well. They have multiple different options for you to choose from, a bowl, wrap/pita, salad, etc. You can customize it any way you want, and get a free slice of pita with your entree! It's assembly line style, so you tell them what you want and how much of it. The employees were a bit hard to understand behind the glass barrier, but we made do. Lots of seating in the restaurant despite how busy it was, lunch time!! My only complaint (besides not being a huge Mediterranean food fan) is that they put a little too much dressing on the salad. You always hear "There can never be too much dressing!" Until it happens to you, and you find yourself picking through it for the least covered items! Besides that, everything tasted fresh and seemed like quality ingredients!

    I think CAVA is one of those places that has a good concept, good food and a good price point. When looking for a place to eat and not knowing some of the place in the Charlotte area. We had been to other locations and knew what to expect and this location didn't disappoint. We got a couple of different pitas and split them to share the different ones. We love the jalapeño lemonade too. Good stuff.

    I'm shocked by the reviews…read more.. Mezeh is my go-to and I prefer it over Cava here's why -- The food is always flavorful. I'm talking finger licking, scraping every piece of couscous and rice lol. The customer service is friendly. I've been at least 5x and each time I'm greeted with a smile. The portion sizes will last you at least 1-2 meals which is necessary if you're feeding boys/men or a hungry mama like myself! The prices are fair. I usually spend $14 here and that's sometimes with a drink included. Overall, I'd recommend Mezeh to anyone who like Mediterranean food or is in the University Area, looking for something good. And they have a solid rewards program. In January, they had BOGO. Now, after the discount was applied I did notice an up charge that the cashier couldn't explain but other than that, my experience has been 10/10.

    We visited mezeh on a Thursday around 12:15 hoping for lunch during a conference at a nearby hotel…read more The menu looked good, and honestly we really liked the food we got, but this place as a service issue. They had 4 people working: 2 doing prep, one just making online orders, and one doing in person orders. We arrived and it took 20 minutes for the 3 of us to get food with no one in line in front of us. I wouldn't think that it would take so long, but then I remember that usually places like this have the line split in half and sometimes a third person to ring orders up. By the time I got my food, there was a line of 15 people out the door, many of whom were from our conference and ended up leaving since we only have a 1-hour lunch break. The first 2 of us got a straight from the menu bowl, so it really should've been faster. I wanted a lamb bowl, but they didn't have any lamb (not having something in the menu at the beginning of a lunch rush immediately lost them a star) so I said I wanted to build my own steak bowl. The staff started automatically making me one of the menu steak bowls, so I continuously stopped them down the entire line and told them what I wanted. I think they were just confused, but it was irritating nonetheless. This place could've gotten 4 stars if they'd had lamb, 5 if they'd had lamb and had better service. I just can't justify going here unless you've ordered ahead because it took way too long.
