    Hot honey chicken bowl
    Michele B.

    Service was fast on a weeknight which is imperative for hungry teens. First up was a bowl with hot honey chicken and rice. Tasty, but unfortunately they were out of several preferred toppings. Annoying but not a deal breaker. A kid sized meal was enjoyed next, and included chicken, pita and cucumbers. It was not too loud inside, not too busy, not too pricey. We will come back and sample some falafel next time because tonight they looked a little over done.

    TWO hairs wrapped around the arugula. This location always has something wrong but this takes the cake.

    I've ran the gamut of issues here like uncooked lentils (which can be toxic), wilted scummy greens, the liquid from the meat being thrown into my bowl, and today they forgot my pita - but also after finding not one but TWO long hairs in my salad today, I think I am done with Cava. Mendocino Farms nearby is much more fresh, larger quantity, and the workers don't look miserable!

    Good Lordy this place is my actual heaven. I LOVE Cava! I've only ever gotten the grain bowl here and it would take a lot for me to ever deviate from this order because it's perfection in my opinion. I typically order ahead and pick up my order on the counter and have no issues. Every now and then they'll forget the free pita, and the parking is a pain in this area. But the food is always fresh and delicious. My go to order: Saffron Basmati Rice, Crazy Feta®, Harissa, Roasted Eggplant Dip, Harissa Honey Chicken, Roasted Vegetables, Salt-Brined Pickles, Tomato + Onion, Fire Roasted Corn, Fiery Broccoli, Tomato + Cucumber, Persian Cucumber, Kalamata Olives, Shredded Romaine, Lemon Herb Tahini, Free Side Pita, Skhug

    Falafel pita, doesn't taste better than it looks

    I've seen Cava all over and have never tried it before. I've heard it's like the "Chipotle" of Mediterranean food where you can pick and choose toppings and build your own bowl. I'm visiting a friend in Denver and didn't have a lot of time to eat so decided to pick up Cava since it was nearby. I appreciate the fact that there are plenty of vegan options and everything is clearly labeled with ingredients spelled out so I know what sauces and toppings I can pick. I decided to go for their Falafel Pita just to get a good taste of the most commonly ordered veggie option. Unfortunately, I was not impressed. The falafel is the weirdest falafel I've ever seen. It looked baked and a color I've never seen falafel before. Usually falafel is dark brown on the outside and greenish/yellow/brown on the inside but this was all light brown throughout. The wrap was decent, you can easily find way better pita bread in grocery stores. The veggies seemed fine but the sauce was way too tangy and acidic and didn't balance out the wrap very well Overall, I almost tossed the whole thing but decided to save half and ate it later when I was hungry without the option to get food quickly again. Not bad pricing for the portion size, especially since there's no upcharge for veggie protein. But I don't see myself coming back to try Cava again anytime soon.

    Great place to get a fresh healthy meal. The Mediterranean version of Chipotle. Definitely would recommend. We went on a Sunday afternoon and they were a little short handed, but so worth the wait. Nice portion sizes.

    2023 S Colorado Blvd unit 101 - What lovely "fast food" service! I walked in pretty stressed and distracted (& having not been to CAVA in about two years I wasn't sure what I wanted) and the staff member who helped me was so patient and kind. They also have a thorough allergen menu and it's great for gluten free, vegan, and vegetarian.

    Clean urban fast food vibe with service where they prepare your food as you pick what you want walking down the bar. It's a pretty tasty and healthier side fast food and we like this restaurant.

    Mallory B.

    So, let me start by saying that I have been a loyal CAVA fan since the beginning. I love the quality of the food, how fresh it is, and all of the unique customizable options they offer us! However, the 3 stars is because this is the third time in a week, at two different locations, that the plain chicken has been incredibly spicy. It was so spicy that I could not enjoy my meal. Please please change the formula back so we can continue to enjoy the wonderful CAVA we love and know!

    Safta - Whipped feta with oven fresh pita that stayed hot for a long time!

    I went to Safta's brunch with my family, and I was skeptical that it was a buffet, but I'm so happy…read moreit was. The buffet allowed me to try everything - and it's nothing like what you're picturing. There was constantly warm, fresh pita to try the hummus, whipped feta and tabbouleh. There was constantly fresh fruit out with honey yogurt that was to die for. While there was a ton of meats and cheeses to try from, the star of the show was the falafel. You can't miss trying it, it was the best falafel I've ever had. The vibes were great for brunch, and I highly recommend going for buffet style if you want to try a bunch of things on the menu.

    No wonder this place is hard to get a reservation at and Michelin recognized. It is stellar!…read more The hotel it's in also has nice vibes. The restaurant has this nice open feeling to it with a full bar (you can order off the full menu if a solo or pair dining) and then plenty of tables. I recommend coming with a larger group if you can so you can try lots of things. Servers are nice and attentive. Obviously you have to try various hummus plates. The foraged mushroom and brussels sprouts were my favorite. I especially loved the jalapenos on the brussels sprouts one. The hummus itself was creamy and rich and the pita they bring is warm and fresh. The tabbouleh was fine but nothing spectacular and it says it has avocado in it but I didn't detect it. I love muhammara and theirs did not disappoint. The pickled vegetables were nice but I also love pickled anything. Absolutely make sure to get the bright green falafels. Probably my favorite of the night. Perfectly crispy exterior with a soft warm center that I'd eat over and over again. We ordered the duck but I was quite full so did not taste it. The only reason I'm giving 4/5 stars is the scallops were incredibly underwhelming and quite bland. The scallops themselves were cooked fine but no flavor and the pomegranate sauce didn't add much. There desserts were also just so-so.

The staff is very welcoming and helpful. The food is fantastic and the portions are generous. Prices are very reasonable. We shared the Baba Ganoush to start. This is pureed, baked eggplant. Here tahini and pomegranate molasses were added. I am not a big eggplant fan, but this was phenomenal. The presentation was gorgeous with the puree spread out beautifully on a large dish, topped with olives, paprika, parsley, and a very generous dollop of delicious olive oil. An outstanding version of this dish. We received a large plate of very fresh pita triangles to go with the baba ganoush. These were great. We definitely used them to scrape every speck of eggplant off that platter! We both ordered the Gyro Plate. The gyro meat was very authentic, extremely tender, and very flavorful. The plate included a large tower of savory rice, a rich tzatziki sauce, a nice side of silky hummus, some pickled vegetables, and more pita. Another delicious offering and a huge portion. We also had soup as the entrees come with soup or salad. My friend tried the lentil soup and said it was flavorful and tasty. I had the tomato soup which was hardy and richly-flavored. This was a great meal. There's a pastry case with a choice of many Middle Eastern desserts. My friend selected several to take home and we staggered out of the restaurant with lots of leftovers that will make a delightful lunch tomorrow. A wonderful experience.

Many more had shown up here before we left, however. As it was happy hour, we tried three different appetizers: falafel with hummus, dolmas, and harissa carrots. All were delicious and ended up being rather filling. My wife and I both had the lamb gyros, while my daughter had the chicken shawarma. While the dishes didn't appear to be a huge amount of food, they ended up being plenty. Everything had really nice flavor. As it was my wife's birthday, she got the free baklava for dessert.
