    Came for the new Harissa Avocado Bowl with Harissa Pita Chips - so much flavor!!! Was able to get in, order, and exit quickly on a Friday night. Currently giving out keychain plush pita toys with Harissa meals! Gotta love CAVA! Staff was friendly and helpful with some modifications I requested and utilizing my birthday reward!

    Build your own bowl - Arugula, steak, tzatziki, pickled red onion, feta cheese, cucumber, steak, lemon tahini sauce.

    I'll start by saying the food was great. The steak was tender - I only had one piece I couldn't eat. I loved the build your own set up, but also having recipe options to choose from. The staff, however, we're not friendly at all. It was our first time in and we felt extremely rushed. My husband didn't end up loving his bowl because he felt pressured to make quick decisions. There was no one in line. The staff that helped us couldn't have care if we existed. It was very unwelcoming. The staff are either very unkind people or really don't like their job. Either way, management should really consider addressing this. The cafe was not the most clean - there were pieces of pita on the floor, food scattered under tables, and we had to search for a clean table to eat at. The bathrooms weren't much better. We likely won't come back to this location, unless out of necessity (our only option).

    I have been a fan of cava since 2018. The one on medical center parkway is always welcoming and the food it's very fresh and tasty. Love it being a healthy choice!

    My sister has been telling me to try this place and I finally was able to go. There's not one super close to me so since we were in the area we decided to stop by. I can't say night about it, it was so good. I hope they expand their locations in Nashville as I thoroughly enjoyed the food. The restaurant was cleans and the staff was friendly. I will definitely be back.

    I found a large sharp piece of metal in my meal. Literally pulled this out of my mouth. If I had ingested this, i would have been hospitalized. Please do not go to this Cava location.

    *DoorDash experience* CAVA is one of those places where I don't feel bad spending my money on takeout. I made sure to add as much veggies as I can get, while also adding some protein(steak) The falafel and pita chips definitely made it even better

    It says you are open until 10 pm but several cars including mine just arrived and it said you closed at 3 pm. How long will you be closing early and will you update your hours on Yelp to save us the drive?

    Delicious! The chicken Caesar wrap was the best I've ever…read morehad. My husband loved his turkey melt and potato salad. I also needed a sweet treat and the Brown Butter chocolate chip cookie was quite tasty. It's VERY busy and quite hectic inside and on the porch. Not really a leisurely, quiet Sunday sit down and relax atmosphere, but this is more about their popularity I think. The staff were helpful and friendly...well done! We were amazed at the prompt arrival of our food on a busy Sunday. A great place for a healthy meal option that is also delicious!

    Today's lunch spot was recommended to me over & over. Herban Market is an organic restaurant that…read moreserves grass fed beef, local eggs, and every sauce & bun is prepared from scratch. No seed oils. No soy. No GMO, preservatives or artificial sweeteners. They have a bakery, wine bar, coffee bar & grocery. It's a wellness lovers dream. But what I didn't expect to find... Was the sense of community. People on the patio talking & mingling for hours. I came for a solo lunch & left with 3 new friends. Here's what I recommend : Birria Tacos - FIVE STARS Caramel Latte - 4.5 stars Meat Lovers Pizza - 4.5 stars Chicken Salad BLT - 4 stars Burger - 3 stars tomato bisque soup - 3.7 stars Next time I'd like to try the steak & eggs. I'd get the Birria tacos again FOR SURE. For more Nashville Recs, check out my Insta Lillypulitzerstylist where I film at 3 restaurants each week.

    We were really looking forward to visiting this location, as this used to be one of our favorite…read morerestaurants when we lived in California. We stopped in while traveling through town and were excited to return. After being seated inside, we noticed a small ant on the table. It didn't seem like a big deal at first, so we removed it and continued with our meal. Our server was friendly, and the food itself was good. However, about halfway through, more ants started appearing--eventually over 10--crawling on the table and around our food. We informed our server, who notified management, but in the meantime we were trying to eat while dealing with ants around our plates. This visit was on March 31st around 6 pm. The manager eventually came over and said they were probably coming from the window, then asked if we would like to move and thanked us for being understanding. She also mentioned they wouldn't be seating anyone else at that table for the rest of the evening. At that point, we had nearly finished eating and didn't want to disrupt our three young children by moving. More importantly, the situation could have been handled differently. Rather than asking if we wanted to move, it would have felt more appropriate for her to take the lead and say something like, "Let me move you to another table," instead of putting it on us in a way that felt dismissive. When you're spending around $140 on a meal, you shouldn't have to deal with bugs on your table. A small gesture--like offering a complimentary dessert or otherwise acknowledging the inconvenience--would have gone a long way in making the experience feel handled with care.

    Made a return trip and was not disappointed. Friday night and it was busy the whole time we were…read morethere, so reservations still suggested. We started with the Classico Board, it was the perfect size for the 3 of us! Good variety of meats, cheeses and a little bread to go with! I had the Strozzapreti, which is chicken, spinach, mushrooms, pine nuts and a cream sauce over pasta. Very good and given that I enjoyed that previously mentioned board, I took a box to bring a bunch of it home. Lest you think that means I was full.... I somehow managed to find room to split a dessert. We had the Salted Caramel Budino, which was a lovely presentation but also very good! The espresso fudge hidden in with the banana was so well balanced (ie. not too banana-y!). And the pecan toffee gave the perfect crunch. Good end to a great meal. Server was excellent and attended to us sufficiently to make it feel like a nice special meal!
