    I love cava. The food is always good. Place has plenty of space to sit. Service was ok. I felt like they were skimping out of protein and toppings bc I've had it else where and they give you a fair amnt.

    Falafel bowl.
    Krissy W.

    It delivered as Cava should. Falafel was good. Veggies were fresh. And the sauce was the perfect condiment. The dining area was clean with inside and outside seating options. The service was friendly and prompt. Opted for seating by the fountain in the shopping area's center.

    This food was so good I got rice, chicken, spinach, corn, beans, humus, and a mix of sauces. Cava never misses but especially this location. The service is good even with a long line. The ambiance is ok but it's always clean.

    Erica and Chris were super friendly, efficient and helpful even when the line was out the door! Store AND kitchen were clean which is super rare in build-your-own bowl places. This is my favorite CAVA out of the ones near me! Never disappointed. Also gave us fresh ingredients that just came out! Thank you :)

    The Baseline: For Mediterranean salad the ingredients must be quality/fresh, the taste must be savory, and the preparation must make sense for Mediterranean cuisine. Food: Tried the Garlicky Chicken Shawarma bowl and it was a delicious, filling bowl of food. The ingredients were fresh and I saw certain items being cooked in front of me. Quality fast casual food. Service: The staff put together my order quickly and were nice about asking what I wanted on everything. Ambiance: Came in to order and go and the restaurant was clean and had an easy layout.

    This was a delivery order. I have heard about this restaurant before, and decided to give Cava a try. Cava is a Mediterranean restaurant that serves plenty of delicious variations. The bowl that appealed to me the most was, Half grilled steak and half chicken Shawarma. The restaurant prepared a delicious bowl of grilled goodness. Inside the bowl was your choice of proteins, greens, grains, toppings, dressings, and an optional side. There are many different ways to customize your own bowl. The bowl is large enough to hold a hefty amount of delicious food. My bowl was a flavorful, fresh meal. I am so glad that I made the choice to order from this delectable, bountiful, and delicious restaurant. First time, and not the last.

    Great as always, in town for work near this location. Great service, super fast, super warm and fresh food.

    I came here with my family for the first time and if I'm going to be honest, I'm not in a rush to come back. The food was great, super flavorful and fresh but the wait time is a bit much. Yes, this place is very popular which is why there is a huge line but with the amount of staff, you wouldn't expect to wait about 45 minutes to get to the front of the line from the door. From my point of view, the slow process is from the staff unfortunately. When ordering, each employee that would take over the next step of your bowl kept forgetting to add something because they're trying to move too fast or they would go somewhere else to help another employee while in the middle of building your bowl, so that would cause you to have to wait for them and of course causes the slow down in the line. The employees are also not that friendly here. They come off as hostile and annoyed. Maybe they're overwhelmed from the amount of people coming in but it just seems like you're causing an inconvenience if you ask them a question about the food or for certain toppings. It made me not want to be there anymore at all and my whole family felt this way too, unfortunately. I may try a different location, but from this experience, I'm in no rush.

    I hate myself a little for sleeping on this place, as it is wonderful in many ways, like the many constellations that appear in Zeu's galaxy. For example, we all know that the economy has become demanding, as in expects us to have two gigs, and a passive income stream to cope with it. But this place stills offers a good lunch for under 15.00 dollars, which is honestly, not only a good deal, but a refreshing deal as one can go here, even if one does not have the Golden Touch of Midas. Like today, I got a very filling bowl, with chicken, sweet potatoes, brown rice, romaine lettuce, hummus- traditional- tzaiki, olives, pickles, and some other stuff, that made a welcomed melody of flavors. I also got pita strips on top, which gave my bowl a delighful crunch, so textures play a factor in its deliciousness too! For no other reason, this place deserves its own statue in Greece's Pantheon or Circe's Hall of Trophies, which I am sure she has, not only a pen for the warriors she turned to swine. Another wonderful aspect of this place, is that, like Chipotle and other such joints, it allows you to customize your plate, which means that what you can have for lunch really is incomputable. I think I heard somewhere, that no two games of poker can be the same, because with 52 cards in the deck the possibilities of game play run into the millions or more. Thus, the combination for lunch at this place, might literally stretch the cosmos. I am trying to recall my math class of yesteryears and perhaps the word I am looking for is permutation, as the permutations in a bowl from Cava are quite literally incalculable., less one has the wisdom of Athena. So, this means, that all types of eaters are welcomed from Vegans to Omnivores and every type of biter in between, including those wearing Gladiator sandals. I do not recall, going to this place, and them not having a long line. Well except this one time where I went and waited for the joint to open. But to be honest, as soon as they opened, me and like three other folks stepped in, with measured steps, not like the Greeks who barged into Troy. I really cannot find fault in this place, except that I do not live close to one. I do not have to travel the length and woe of an Odyssey to get to one, for sure, not, but still one is at least 20 minutes from me, so it does kind of feel like a Herculean task. For those who might not have gleaned it by my over use of Greek references this place is Greek inspired fare.

    On my 2nd visit here, I really enjoyed it again. The bowl was fresh, flavorful and a great value. Service was also excellent. Highly recommended in El Segundo off PCH.

    Erica at the register was so kind! This was my first time here and she was so welcoming.

    Split a Summer Blackened Salmon Bowl (+ extra salmon) + brownie between 2 people. $38 (w 15% tip)…read more It's on the spendy side as you would imagine. 7ish/10 - It was pretty good. Pretty ok. Pretty fine. Not bad. Not fantastic. But good. With the price of everything else these days ($25 for 2 double-doubles, 2 fries and a shake...). The salmon was ok. It doesn't say fresh or frozen salmon anywhere, or if it's wild or farmed. I'm guessing it's frozen and farmed. The blackened flavor helps to hide that. The rest of the bowl was pretty good. The quinoa/rice was pretty tasty. The salad was ok, but I'm not a salad lover. Avocado, fresh. Salad dressing, VERY lemony if that's your thing. Brownie was slightly dry but also delicious cuz it's a brownie. It's gluten-free after all. The best part? It's just kind of a mellow meal. There's a lot of places to eat out in South Bay, but I don't always want pizza or sushi or burgers or steak. Sometimes I just want some chill food that's real and good, that's easy to get and easy to take home and this fits the bill! Pick-up is easy. I love the little area it's in, there's plenty of parking if you drive around. And there's a nice place to sit outside in the back/on the side with CLEAN tables and umbrellas. Honestly, so chill and quiet. Enjoyable. All in all, we'll be back.

It's located in a shopping area in El Segundo called The Point. Parking: parking can be a little tricky, but it's free parking! Such an anomaly in the LA area lol. Kat was our waitress and she was phenomenal. Camine also came by and she was so hospitable. Everything that we ordered was on point! (Pun intended lol). My daughter got the cheese pizza and my son got the penne pasta. I kind of wish they had a side of vegetables or fruit, but thankfully, I had just given my kids some fruit before, so avoided the mom guilt lol. The edamame dumplings is an absolute must! It's an umami flavored dish! We also got the eggplant dish, and it was really good! If you've been to elephante in Santa Monica, it kind of reminds me of that, but the eggplant is a little bit more dense, but really great flavors. You may have to order an extra eggplant dip, because the ratio isn't exactly favorable towards the eggplant. Got the kale salad with shrimp. The shrimp was cooked to perfection! Kale was pretty good, but asked for extra cheese. My husband was all about the burger and he claimed it was one of the best burgers he's ever had! He got an IPA beer and I got a watermelon mint Mojito. It was really good, but I think I will try the skinny margarita next time. The price is actually pretty reasonable for the clean /delicious food! We are most definitely coming back!

Crispy falafel, fresh veggies, great sauces--the whole thing worked. The outdoor seating was really nice, too, with a warm, relaxed atmosphere that made it an easy place to sit and enjoy lunch. So why four stars? The falafel math. $16 for a falafel sandwich is already getting into fairly ambitious territory. But for $16, I opened that pita expecting a small army of falafel. Maybe five? A respectable battalion? Three. Three falafel balls. Look, they were delicious falafel balls. But at $5.33 a ball, I feel like each one should at least have a tiny résumé and health insurance. Still, really good food, lovely people, and a warm, welcoming spot. I'd happily come back. I just need the falafel-to-dollar ratio to undergo some light restructuring.

I probably won't be back there to eat in there but instead take my food to go and eat in my car. For such a nice location and the demographics the serving items need to be cleaned more thoroughly . But the falafel at the other location seemed more flavorful. This one the falafel was different. Until Next time....
