    We have frequented other Cava locations and absolutely loved them, but were disappointed by our visit to the Greenwich Cava. We visited mid day on a Sunday and were unable to order falafel and pita crisps as we were told their frying machine was broken. We were surprised to hear this for such a busy time/day of week. Nonetheless, our Cava bowls were delicious as always. We would give the Greenwich location another try due to our love for Cava's flavorful ingredients and tasty dips and dressings. Don't skip the fire roasted corn or pickled onions!

    My experience at CAVA is always great and I will keep coming back! Jimmy was a very hospitable server and the food is always fresh.

    Didn't taste the food yet but the servers attitude was enough not to come here again!

    The servers attitude stinks! Didn't even taste the food yet but will not patronize this store again due to workers nasty attitude!

    I think you can go all which ways here. But for all practical purposes, the base for CAVA bowls are Greens, Grains (or both), Pita and a few others- and if you're doing low-carb, swap out the grains. Followed by Dips & Spreads, then Proteins: Chicken, Grilled Meatballs, Braised Lamb or Spicy Lamb Meatballs (oh...there's no oink at all here). Next- pick unlimited Toppings and to top it all off, Dressings- in many nice combinations. With several locations strong, CAVA isn't self-service but, they do set themselves apart from the typical build-your-own salad spots with lots of Greek & Mediterranean ingredients. Large windows give CAVA an airy feel, high ceilings with wood beams and a black, wood slat wall- adding modern plus drama. Service is pleasant as you pull up to CAVA's assembly counter. Home girl made some combination suggestions and I just went with it. Thank you! I didn't want to hold up the line by having a sample of each dressing- so settled on oil and lemon instead- which was good anyway. CAVA has a unique breakdown that I'm digging for Lunch (or anytime) and seems like their formula is working here.

My wife and I had just wrapped up a long day of running errands and decided to end it with a great meal. Well, the day did not end quite as expected. we were not exactly "Greenwich dressed." We walked in without a reservation and asked for a table for two. We were offered a table outside or seats at the bar. Since it was getting chilly, we initially decided to leave. A couple of minutes later, we changed our minds and decided to brave the dropping temperature. When we returned and asked if we could take the outside table after all, the host, who we later learned was the manager, sighed, rolled his eyes, and looked visibly annoyed. My wife and I looked at each other, confused by the reaction. She asked him if something was wrong. We sat down, but by then she was too upset to enjoy dinner. I have never seen react that way. His reaction was way too out of place for us both to feel weird-judged, discriminated. I am still unsure. I told the manager that I honestly could not remember the last time I had seen a restaurant manager react to a customer that way. We got the whole combo: sigh, eye roll, and the look. It felt very 1980s. I thought we had moved past that kind of service, especially in a place like Greenwich. Apparently, I was wrong. Bad service still exists. And apparently, it is at a restaurant near you: Mediterraneo in Greenwich.

Definitely appreciate the staff recommendations on portion sizes, plates to share for the table, and wine pairings.

Would come back again for sure, as they have an extensive list of options to try. Great spot within walking distance of downtown Stamford hotels.

Meanwhile some white diners came in, and they hurriedly ushered them smiling to a table. Didn't give us menus (but gave menus to all diners that came in after us) until I flagged someone down for them. I watched them give complimentary bread and sauce to every other table except ours. I had to interrupt one waiter to ask about it and he shrugged me off, not even stopping to look at me, and muttered he'd get it. He got us bread but not the sauce, I had to ask him if it comes with the bread he said no. Later I asked another diner if it was complimentary, he said yes. It's unbelievable, we spent more than 100$ here to be treated like beggars. I would suggest any POC stay away; we were made to feel incredibly unwelcome and uncomfortable. On the other hand, the food was barely mid. The veal was so tough it was like eating rubber. In the end we couldn't finish it because it just wasn't good. I am not even sure if perhaps on purpose they gave us expired food because afterwards my friend and I both got upset stomachs. If you must be in Stamford you should take your business elsewhere, perhaps dont support a racist establishment.

Must be under new ownership or at least new cooks in the kitchen, judging by the change in quality and taste of the food. The people in the kitchen seemed to be primarily Spanish-speaking. Ordered the chicken kebab wrap and schwafel. Chicken was very dry and drowned in sauce that tasted more like mayo than tahini. They were kind enough to make me a new one after seeing that I was picking at the wrap and the cook explained that chicken breast in the kebab is usually dry. Funny - it wasn't this dry the many times I've had it before. The kebab also lacked the flavor and spice that it had previously. The wrap itself was also thin, dry and unpleasant. They used to use a flour wrap which I think they changed to something akin to cardboard. The scwafel wrap was also very dry. The seating area is small but the workers are very nice and keep it relatively clean. Prices have crept up, as they have everywhere. Given the decline in taste and quality and increase in price, I cannot justify going back to Layla's. The end of an era. I wish they would bring the previous owners/or at least teach the new crew how to make a proper kebab.

    Hospitality is a lot about how you treat your customers. Its the energy, the manners, the vibe, the…read morehuman connection. Sad to say, after being loyal customers, this place turned us off tonight permanently. I placed a large anniversary dinner order by phone, including tahdig ($12). During the call, I specifically asked if the rice came with tomato and onion and was told no it comes with the tahdig that I ordered. So yes it comes with the order. I was also asked whether I wanted the gheymeh on top or on the side of the tahdig. I chose on the side. When I got home, the order didn't match what was discussed: The tahdig wasn't traditional rice tahdig like me or my wife have had countless times. It was more like this brownish, sheet-like, crumble with a few flecks of rice on the crumble, but not crispy. Not Persian tahdig. The gheymeh was missing entirely, despite being discussed on the call. The tomato and onion that I was told were included were not there. The fesenjan had only a few pieces of chicken. The ghormeh sabzi was okay, but pretty underwhelming in flavor. I called politely to clarify about the missing tahdig (for next time) and was told someone would call me back. No one did. When I called again an hour later, the same person who took my original order responded in a dismissive and accusatory tone, unilaterally escalating her tone and voice immediately, almost angrily accusing me of daring to call, and told me that the tahdig does not come with gheymeh, and tomato and onion aren't included either. (This is the opposite of what I was told when ordering). She repeatedly interrupted me, talking over me, instead of listening or trying to resolve the issue. We've been coming here since moving from Southern California a few years ago, whenever we felt homesick and wanted some Persian food. The food has always been....OK....nothing like Persian restaurants in Toronto or Southern California, but we continued ordering out of nostalgia and lack of other options. However, this experience today, incorrect information, missing items, no follow-up, and then, the way the situation was handled was our final turn off. Disappointing, especially for what was meant to be a special occasion. We won't be returning, nor will our visiting Persian family or friends.

The recent expansion into the neighboring space really opened things up with plenty of seating without sacrificing energy. Noise level was balanced, lively but still easy to talk. Free parking lot with ample spaces makes it effortless. We started with a Horiatiki salad and their signature triangles of warm pita with Greek olives -- a simple touch they consistently get right. I ordered the Meraki Passion Platter, while my wife had the butterflied branzino with Patates Tiganites. The homemade round fries are addictive - thin fries with a crisp outside. Portions are generous without being excessive. Service was polished and familiar; we've seen many of the same staff over the years, which says a lot.
