They were amazing....Charles, von, chaniya were amazing.. so kind and smiled the whole time.​​

The staff was amazing! Ambiance 10/10! Very clean, very peaceful for a Downtown location with all the noise and madness outside. Parking is in front of the store, literally but be careful they might give out tickets depending on the day. So keep an eye out on your car or have someone wait in the car if possible The food was even better! 10/10 I got Steak + Harissa with their spicy chicken to add into the bowl. Tomatoes, Corn, Feta Cheese and I got Garlic Dressing and Spicy Harissa Dressing on the side S/O to Carhissa (I believe that's how you spell her name, sorry if I misspelled it) -- I didn't know what to drink, so she told me to mix Blueberry Soda with Mexican Cola and it was soooooooo good! I recommend trying that, if not don't worry about itttt. Try something else! Happy Eating! read more

I ordered a salad based bowl. Hardly any salad....As if you don't order rice then you can't have salad. Online ordering reflected "no grilled vegetables and no pita bread" but when I picked up my order there were vegetables on the line and pita bread. The place is not that clean either and the manager is as dismissive as the come. I just ordered the same salad bowl in Virginia Beach 2 days ago. What a difference! read more

I've tried ordering from here 3 different times online with different services, each time it's canceled within 1-3 minutes. What is wrong with this place? Turn off your food delivery services if you can't handle taking online orders. read more

I've ordered from this location twice, with both times being a pick-up order and, for the most part, things have gone well. My favorite item is the Garlicky chicken shawarma bowl. I don't modify anything and I just keep with everything that already comes with it, and it tasted great each time. My one gripe is that as big as the bowl is, you would think they could fill it a little more, but I guess that is their way of perhaps getting customers to order a double scoop next time. The total cost of the bowl with no modifications will run you about $13. I can't speak much about the service since I am in and out so quickly as I pick up my carry-out order, but it does seem like for the most part everyone is in good spirits. I'm curious about trying their falafel bowl, so I think when ordering again that would be my next choice. read more

I've been here a couple times already and I've always enjoyed each meal. I suggest ordering online at least 2 hours in advanced if you don't want to wait in line. It's still really busy even though they've been open for a few months now. You can build your own bowl or pick from the options on the menu. I can't remember the bowls I've had but no bowl has been bad that I've eaten. I absolutely love the cinnamon pita chips that come with the honey to dip in. I get it every time I go. They have a few different fruit drinks/lemonades you can try but I've never had any of them yet. This is now one of my favorite places to go. The bowls are huge and the staff is always friendly. Service can take some time but I won't say they are slow, it's just busy. Get here soon! read more

I placed an online order and when I got home NONE of my dressings or sauces were in the bag, my food was very dry and mediocre. I ordered a full serving of steak and it looked like I got less than half and that half was very tough.. Canton store had better food and service . I don't think I will be ordering from downtown Detroit again!!! read more

Visiting Detroit for the weekend. I was super excited to visit CAVA but was very disappointed with my visit. I waited 10 minutes (yes I timed it) from the moment one person started making my bowl, walked away, then waited for another person to come finish making it. Then they barely put anything inside my bowl. When I asked for a little more, I was told I would be charged extra. I took a photo... it looks like a kids bowl. Not work $12... it was a $5 bowl. Restaurant was clean because there weren't any customers sitting inside, now I see why. read more

What a great addition to the downtown food scene! We loved our first experience at the downtown CAVA. The interior is actually so cute, the staff was so welcoming and let us take our time with the menu, and the food tasted so fresh. We will definitely be back to perfect our bowl orders! read more

I ordered my first bowl yesterday, and will probably be here often. It's fairly inexpensive, fresh and delicious. Not a huge portion, but satisfying. Delicious toppings and sauces. Perfectly cooked jasmine rice. It's a perfect addition to downtown. read more

My good friend and I went to the grand opening of this Cava location in downtown Detroit. It was a party! They had a DJ outside, free icecream, free dips, and the wait in line actually went by so fast considering how many people were there. My food was absolutely phenomenal and I've never tried Cava before so I was pleasantly surprised. read more

CAVA - My Cava bowl - Mediterranean Near Me - Detroit, Michigan

I am THRILLED that the new Cava is open. The pickup service so far has been prompt and easy to use, and my ingredients are always exactly how I want them. The only downside is that they're frequently out of ingredients! I'm hoping that will be remedied after their first few weeks, and will certainly be returning. read more

Really good cafeteria style Mediterranean food. Make sure you know the flavor you're chasing. One sauce or ingredient can change your entire meal. The drinks are amazing too. read more

Between food and garbage. My salad was great except for the dry pieces of beef jerky they call steak. Tiny inedible peas size pieces of dry garbage mixed in with my salad that I had to pick out to avoid ingesting them. Avoid at all costs. They should not be allowed to serve this as food for humans. I wouldn't serve this what may have once been steak pieces to my dog. read more

I love cava's food but when I place a order at 12:30 and i am still waiting for it at 1:30 that's unacceptable

This place is a Very busy during lunchtime. It would be really nice if they could open up sooner. The Food was very fresh and healthy with lots of different options to add more flavors. I really enjoyed the lamb meatballs and different green vegetables mixes to choose from. read more

The falafel crunch is pretty good except what's supposed to be the star - the falafel - is not good. It's soggy and lacks flavor. The rest of the bowl is good though! Long lines but it goes fast. read more

FINALLLLLLLLY. This cava puts the chipotle next door to shame. Great staff, fast lines, clean, and finally a new lunchtime option downtown. They have been running out of certain toppings, but to be expected with how crowded its been. Hope they continue to crush it! read more

While being the only people in line, with 4 of us, the service took a significant amount of time. The workers helping were not kind, and none of the food was well stocked, causing the service to take even longer. Juju in particular was rude and made us seem as we were incompetent, when it was only our 3rd time trying it out. The place was not very clean, and overall was disappointing. read more

Chaniya was such a great help and a good employee she explained everything too us and made us wanna come back read more

This is the second time I went to this location. They never have the potatoes. They never have all the proteins the employees have a terrible attitude. They honestly look like they have poor training and never wanna be at work poor management. One of the employees was making it to go order and he took a chocolate chip cookie and threw it across the kitchen like it was a basketball trying to make it into the bag and he missed and it fell on the floor and he picked it up and threw it back on the counter. read more

Food is amazing but the service at the Detroit location sucks... 4 employees working and only one building bowls and handling customers. The other was in the back watching and one was eating at the register. The employee building bowls had a frown on his face and was not friendly to talk to. Unfortunate because the service alone would not make me want to come back, but I love Cava. read more

I've been waiting to try this location,, but Can't rate the food because we never got it. Went in on a Saturday night, one couple ahead of us. There were 4 people working. No one wanted to wait on us, the girl at the cashier area literally walked away from 2 couples without speaking or helping. The couple in front of us waited a few minutes then walked out without paying or their food. The cashier looked at us, sorted the cups, then walked in the back, after 2 mins we left too. I have no idea how this place is open. The tables were filthy and there was only 2-3 customers inside. Will never try this location. again. read more

Very long wait time for online order and order ended up being incorrect and messy. No urgency from workers or acknowledgment for the bad service. Disappointing. read more

When living temporarily in Cali, Cava was my go-to. I was excited for Detroit to have one. But the food is NOT GOOD. Pita chips are never fresh & taste kinda stale, the meatballs literally taste artificial and freezer burned, and the food lacks freshness all around. & Multiple people I know (including myself) are getting food poisoning from this place!! It seems like there's laziness around the quality of food and they JUST opened. I blame management. Y'all just opened - you have no excuse. & there are FLIES - all around the restaurant. It's disgusting. read more

Second time wasn't nearly as pleasant. Service must be dependent on who's working a given day.

Ordered ahead of time and waited inside for 30 fricken minutes. Told them my name for pickup 3 times and they looked at me like an idiot. Then I call them while inside the store asking about my order and they say it's been ready. They legit looked at me and handed me my order that's been on the counter the whole time. Dumbest ppl I've ever met. read more

This was only my second time at Cava and I loved it. Jayda was so helpful in recommending and explaining. Jayda and staff were kind, clean, and knowledgeable. Will certainly be back! read more

Service was terrible, rude, and everything but helpful. They also didn't have anything down to feta... The cashier looked like she had better things to do and see read more

When I went, I ordered two different salads and they didn't give me any of the dips. They ran out of the right lettuce, and didn't say a word about it. When I asked them where the dips were, they said they only had two left and they ran out of romaine. Very disappointing. read more

this is unfortunate because I really wanted them to be good. I stay downtown so I've tried them now four times since they've opened a couple weeks ago. They have been out of items every single day besides today. I just ordered a chicken garlic bowl and got home and I left off the chicken completely. When I called down to thel restaurant they gave me two options and we're very rude about it. First, they said I could go on the app and request a refund. Or, I could go all the way back to their restaurant downtown and they would make me a new bowl and still charge me full price. I ask, why would they not refund and she question me asking why do I think I deserve it. Why should I not get a refund if I come back and to get a bowl I already paid for it and that it was their fault for messing up. The customer service is not good, they're out of ingredients on a regular, seems like Chipotle next-door. I would definitely avoid both. I called down to the store and the manager told me to come down, and they would give me a refund. I went all the way back downtown to the store, and they refused to give me a refund. They said since I ordered their app they could not do it. They would only give me my receipt, told me to take a picture of it, and send an email and I would hear back within a week or so. Absolutely ridiculous I could not get my food I paid for or even my money back. I left with neither. Absolutely terrible customer service they were laughing and didn't even care.

The worst chicken Shawarma I've ever had!!! I placed an online order at 1:41pm, online said order will be ready at 2:45pm, I arrived at 2:51pm (food wasn't ready, which was fine). I work in the First National building so I didn't have far to go. I take my Shawarma out the bag, the wrapping is drenched, in what I don't know... open it it, the pita is soaking wet, soggy, and cold!!!!!!!! WTF... I'm so upset, but also starving... I would have been better off going to Golden Fleece! much better than this. They wont get a 2nd chance with me, sorry CAVA. read more

Chalk it up to opening adjustments (??) but hard to build bowl when most of the ingredients are out. Mediterranean without feta? Taziki? Limited greens. Out of way too many things. They need to figure that out read more
