    I've gone here a couple of times now, and I'm obsessed! I ordered the Steak & Feta. Even if it's busier, the lines go by quickly. Staff is always super friendly. I went around 11:20am and the three women at the front were so nice! Reminding me that I can change out ingredients if I'd like to. I was bummed when I tried to leave a tip & was told they don't accept them! They deserve it! A yelp review will have to suffice. Thanks girls (:

    Build Your Own Greens + Grains Bowl

    I got to try CAVA for the first time after spending an entire school year hearing all about it from my friends. Once we ordered our food and sat down, it got awfully quiet because we were busy eating it up. I built my own bowl with greens and grains. I absolutely love the variety of green options that they have, but I went for the arugula with basmati rice. Next, I added some chicken for protein. I also put red pepper hummus, regular hummus, and feta cheese. Then I went to town with the toppings -- pita crisps, pickled onions, corn, and cucumbers and tomatoes. The food was great, service was friendly, but there weren't many seats since it's such a small restaurant. My friend and I were lucky that one opened up after we ordered our food.

    This CAVA is right next to my gym, so it's super convenient for a post-workout meal! It's always on point and hits every time. The only downside is they sometimes run out of certain proteins, which is kind of a bummer.

    Never been disappointed with my cava bowl until I went to this place. Both the brown and white rice were hard! Don't know if it was undercooked or overcooked but it was not good. Long wait during school lunch hours but shouldn't be an excuse for hard rice..

    Healthy and yummy! You have to figure out which sauces you like to mix with your bowl for the best experience. I didn't have meat. Instead I ordered sweet potatoes and falafels. The sweet potatoes are the best. I choose only those next time. Thier service is great. This restaurant stays packed. 1st visit: Yummy!! Their bowls taste amazing and healthy for you. I don't like brussel sprouts, but they taste great at this location. I will be back and I'll bring a friend.

    Make your own bowl with chicken shawarma and grilled beef

    This is my first time at Cava. Small, fast casual, mediterranean restaurant. Very similar to a Chipotle but for Mediterranean food. Make your own bowl or pita wrap with different types of rice, greens, meats and other toppings. There are about 5 to 6 tables inside and no outdoor seating. The entire store facade is made of glass which brings in a lot of light and gives the space an open feel. The Nice modern interior and the pop music playing in the background gives it a good vibe. The AC was turned on at a perfect temperature. The noise level was medium to loud. I got a bowl with greens as the base. For meats, i got the chicken shawarma and the grilled beef. For toppings i got 2 types of hummus, grilled corn, tomatoes, cucumbers and pickled cabbage. The bowl came with a complimentary but optional slice of greek style pita bread. They also have fountain drinks. The greens and dressing was really good. On the other hand, the meats were not tender at all, cold and dry. As i was making my bowl, i barely stuck my hand over the food bar window to remotely point at an item in order to ask my hostess what the item was. Before she would even answer my question, and as i was already retrieving my hand, she unnecessarily snapped and asked me to remove my hand. And then she rushed me through the rest of the process. I understood why but it was still unnecessary. I did not appreciate that but i kept my cool. Prices are consistent with other similar fast casual food restaurants. My bowl was a little over $17. The amount of food was just right. Not too much nor too little. Based on this experience i would probably not go back but you can try it for yourself and formulate your own opinion. It would still be a good spot for a quick lunch especially if you are vegetarian or Vegan.

    Yes...as previous posts say...get your wallet ready. The food is tasty but not trying relinquish my right arm for some Mediterranean food. Ugh. In the words of John Travolta Faceoff....What a predicament? Thr pita chips are slap yo mama good. What's a hungry chick to do?

    Small portion

    Very disappointed with my CAVA order. I paid around $28 for a bowl through the app, and several items I selected were missing. The bowl was basically filled with sauce with barely any rice greens or protein. The amount of steak was extremely small. I called to complain and was only offered a free bowl if I came back to the restaurant. I ordered delivery for a reason and they couldn't even offer a delivery solution. For almost $30 this was completely unacceptable.

    Missing chicken in my chicken bowl

    I placed a pickup order and was originally told it would be ready around 12:37 PM. At 12:37, I received another message saying the order was delayed, and it ultimately wasn't ready until 12:55 PM I wouldn't have minded waiting a little longer if the order had been correct, but after getting home, I realized my bowl was missing both the chicken and tomatoes I ordered. The bag label even clearly listed chicken as part of the bowl. It's really frustrating to wait an extra 15 minutes for an order and then find out that one of the main components of the meal was completely left out. I paid for a full meal and expected to receive what I ordered, especially after the additional wait. Unfortunately, this was a very disappointing experience.

    Hire more people. It shouldn't take 45 minutes for an online pickup order. Ridiculous.

    Came in on the suggestion of a friend for an impromptu lunch. Although Mendocino Farms has been…read morearound for a long time, I'd never been here and boy have I been missing out! The restaurant has plenty of inside seating and a very nice covered patio area for outdoor dining. Orders are placed at the counter and brought to your table when it's ready. All of the employees we interacted with today were all friendly and helpful. The menu has SO many delicious sounding choices that I will have to make several return visits to try them all! But for today I chose their prosciutto & chicken panini. The sandwich was perfectly pressed and generously filled with carved chicken and all sorts of yummy goodness. This particular dish also had honey roasted almonds sprinkled inside, giving it a very surprisingly nice added crunch. I've been to all the other restaurants in this shopping center and Mendocino Farms is by far the BEST of them all. I've already made plans to come back next week :)

    I've always enjoyed the food at Mendocino Farms, but today's experience at the Brea location gave…read moreme a whole new reason to keep coming back. I had a board retreat that was supposed to be catered by Mendocino Farms, but due to an error, our catering order was never placed. With a room full of people expecting lunch and little time to find a solution, I called the restaurant hoping they could help. Jordan immediately went into problem-solving mode. She checked whether they could accommodate a last-minute catering order and even consulted her manager. Although they didn't have the necessary catering supplies, Jordan worked with me to find another option: individual sandwich and salad orders. The team rushed to prepare everything so I could pick it up and make it back to the retreat in time. They absolutely saved the day. The food was phenomenal, as always, but the service truly earned this review. Jordan and the team didn't cause the problem, yet they went above and beyond to help solve it. Everyone enjoyed lunch, and what could have been a major issue became a success. I'll continue coming back for my own meals, and Mendocino Farms Brea will be at the top of my list for future events. Great food earns return visits; service like this earns loyalty. Thank you to Jordan and the entire team for coming through when we needed it. An easy five stars.

One of the wonderful things about Pita Hot is that you can order dishes a la carte. I got a side of shawarama meat with tahini and a medium tabbouleh, and the portions were great!!! Behold: a gorgeous, fresh tabbouleh shawarama salad. I also ordered one of their coffee drinks for the first time. I really liked the cardamom latte: it was at a great price point, and not too sweet. I will definitely be coming back!

But where Pita Hot sets itself apart from those places is the community. When you walk in, you're greeted with smiles, a question about how your day is, and if you've been there a few times, a quick "how's the wife and kids?" Although some people may see the price tags and wince, they do not skimp on portions. They will fill your plate to the absolute brim, give you one huge pita, and send you on your way. The flavors on the food are nothing to scoff at either. The hummus, tabbouleh, and beef skewer are absolute hits. Flavorful bites with the perfect amount of balance between the acidity of the tabbouleh, the light and rich hummus, and the meatiness of the beef. The shrimp skewer is tasty as well but not something I think I'd get again. The rice pairs well with everything, and as I've mentioned before, the humongous pita they give you is delicious as well. A three skewer plate is enough for two people! All in all, Pita Hot has been around this long for a reason. Their business model and recipes are tried and true. Overall, 9/10.
