    Bowl empty
    Judd Y.

    Kyce hooked my bowl up! Thanks bro. I really enjoyed it and finished that bowl quick!

    Today is National Pita Day, so I am posting my review today! To celebrate, if you are or become a member of their CAVA Rewards program, you get free Pita Chips on them! CAVA is a mixed bag for me. I have been several times, and sometimes it's been OK, sometimes not ok, and never great. This visit was right down the middle as well. This being the North Park Center store, the ambiance is pretty much food court, though I would describe it further as upscale food court. The service is not anything I would complain about at any of the CAVA locations I have visited. This one was no exception. The staff, though busy, was friendly, upbeat, and energetic. They kept the line moving so it kind of shielded you from the fact they were so busy. I ordered the Steak + Harissa Bowl. It is pretty decent. It has Steak, Feta, Red Pepper Hummus, Tomato, Cucumber Onion, Brown Eice and a Vinaigrette. So far it has been my favorite thing I have tried here.

    Went to NorthPark Mall and chose this place because I've heard some good things. Kind of like chipotle but more expensive, is what I heard. I went for it and should have not! It looked good but treated horrible. It was mostly cold, don't know if that's how it was supposed to be? Not sure if it's try again since it cost me almost 17 bucks for this small bowl.

    We lucked into a good time to come here. I was walking around the mall after a busy work day, and Eric R. showed up and decided we should eat at Cava. He had heard about it because it recently became a public company, but we had never tried it before. We were the only people in line at the mall food court with under an hour before closing time, so the staff was very friendly and patient. She explained how we could make our own bowl and still get pita on the side. She let us taste the dips, proteins we were interested in, and dressings. It was like going to an ice cream shop! Eric R. ordered a bowl with half saffron rice and half splendidgreens, with braised lamb, harissa, feta dip, roasted red pepper hummus, pretty much all toppings except pickles, and the schug and garlic dressings. I got a bowl with half saffron rice and half lentils, with lamb meatballs, harissa, feta dip, eggplant dip, various toppings (red cabbage, pickled onions, tomatoes, cucumbers, kalamata olives, feta) with lemon tahini herb dressing and schug. It really was so tasty that we saved half of our bowls for lunch tomorrow. We were totally satisfied and really appreciated the great service. I went back to get a to go bag to carry our bowls to the car and they happily obliged. I could definitely return to try other things here. There are so many options for grains, greens, proteins, dips, toppings, and dressings!

    I know, I know. Five Stars,but,trust me.... Go! These guys have hit a home run for many reasons. My diet is meat centric however,even I know when to ease up on the medium rare. CAVA has created a delicious, convenient,priced right, option to the usual fast food suspects. Think Chipotle with a Middle Eastern focus. Hummus,lamb,lentils..etc. it's all there and waiting for you. The drill is,get in line and either start building your own bowl by telling the counter person what you want or,order a predetermined entre. I went with building my own as,the lady in front of me was being instructed, making it easy for me to follow. My bowl started with pita,spinach,black lentils, falafel..etc etc until I had an outrageous bowl. I added lavender lemonade and it was lunch. Easy and I must say DELICIOUS! I've got my fingers crossed they'll open one by my home.. but for now just find one and .. Go!!!

    Cava Bowl

    It was my first time at Cava and Ashley and Joanne were so sweet and helpful! They were quick with service and made amazing recommendations. I had a bowl with half rice and half super greens as I'm trying to watch my carbs. The rice was delicious and the greens very fresh. I got the grilled chicken/ half harissa honey chicken (a little extra but worth it). The flavors were amazing. You her to pick 3 dips, unlimited toppings, and two dressings. The bowl was packed of flavor and protein. I'm visiting from california but now have to find a Cava near me. I just hope I get the same excellent service that this team provided!

    Cava is definitely going on to my fav list!!! Especially staff at Cava@Northpark location, very friendly & patient. Outstanding customer service!!! They have bowls & wraps, made with all fresh ingredients & are super flavorful. You can look Cava as the Mediterranean version of Chipotle but loaded with healthier options. We ordered couple of bowls which were delicious. You can pick a bowl or a wrap from the menu or opt to make your own! Pita chips with tzatziki sauce is a must try. Definitely recommend Cava over chipotle and salata.

    Great experience at this Cava! Compared to our previous experience with Cava at a different location. Food was great! And the attention to customer needs was great too! Earick was really helpful. This location is located in the mall in the food court. Makes for a fun experience and setting to eat. I would go here again.

    Avocado Salad? I had a few bites but the staffed didn't fill it like I've seen in videos or their pictures.

The music is nice and you can tell they really focus on creating a beautiful Mediterranean experience. The food is completely incredible and very unique. This is not your average Greek pita place. This is a restaurant that could easily be in Turkey for some European country. We started with the Mezza platter ( $29) - which included 6 different dips. It's pricey for an appetizer, but it is definitely worth it because it's so unique and flavorful. It was probably my favorite thing that we ate. Everything felt just a little bit overpriced for what it is. My baseline comparison is Hillstones and R&D, and this is definitely Hillstone's pricing, but not the same experience overall. My wife and I shared the lamb shank and the falafel platter and also had a side of cauliflower (which was incredible). My 3 year old had the kids item which was $18!?. it was all very very good. My wife and I had a glass of wine and the average price was $18. They also had no descriptions of what style of wine it was e.g. Cabernet Sauvignon. When I asked the server, he just recommended the Caymus. The service was transactional and something you would get at most fast casual restaurants. I get that a lot of the servers are not professional servers. For the mezze platter, it would've been helpful to have an explanation of what was on it. Basically they brought the food. They took our order and that was it. Parents: they have one kids meal which included four chicken kebabs and a side of either rice or fries ($18). The price felt very steep for a kids meal. I probably would rather have had half the portion size for half the price.

Their vegetables taste like they came straight out of someone's home kitchen, not a restaurant kitchen. But let me tell you: the bread here is unbelievable. Warm, buttery, soft... it tastes like it's baked with love. They should honestly charge extra for it, but they don't. The Turkish tea is another comfort -- simple, hot, soothing. You sit there sipping it and you forget you're right next to one of Dallas' busiest stretches of road. The servers here? Handsome, kind, and attentive without hovering.
