The moment of clarity you will get when you try the Garlic Chicken and Veggie Pita can only be likened to Galileo discovering the Heliocentric theory. Your entire life has been building to this moment. Every major life event will henceforth be classified as Before Cava or After Cava. The Peloponnesian War was fought over this dish. Julius Caesar crossed the Rubicon because this dish was waiting on the other side. They'll remake Demolition Man where Cava is the only restaurant to survive the Franchise Wars. You're likely to get the girl, land the job, reconnect with your parents and save a drowning kitten, probably all in the same day, because you tried this dish. It's that good. read more

This is our go to spot when we are in Hixson and want a veggie/heavy option. A bowl can be on the higher price side, but I typically get two meals out of it. The space is very clean and staff are friendly. Love having a healthy option! read more

CAVA - Mediterranean Near Me - Hixson, Tennessee

Went on a friend's enthusiastic recommendation and picked up dinner and lunch for the next day (I trusted her opinion!). This place is not visible from Hwy 153, but if you pull into the mall entrance from 153 and turn right, you will see it tucked away in the corner. There is plenty of parking. I ordered a spicy chicken bowl - no lettuce, a steak and harrisa bowl, and a spicy chicken pita. My son loved the steak bowl. I asked the young lady to separate the meat and rice from the cold stuff because he would be eating later that night and they did - very nice. The spicy chicken bowl does not have warm/hot chicken which was unexpected so at first I was confused but since the steak was room temp/cool as well, I guess it is supposed to be "salad" temp. It was so flavorful either way! The whipped feta was creamy and delivered a nice contrast to the chicken. The pita was fluffy and quite thick - definitely a meal. I want to go back and try their falafel next. read more

Delicious, flavorful bowls & pita wraps (gyros)! LOVE the greens & grains w falafel & their Greek chicken is tender and delicious - my Mom loved hers so much! Bowl's usually come w pita, and when we dined in, that was great. However, when I DoorDashed, included a tip, and a note which asked to dbl check for pita, I had no pita and a considerably smaller bowl. I think I'll go in myself from now on :/ Food is WONDERFUL tho! Love the strawberry citrus drink & lavender blueberry. Also appreciate the natural sodas and plant based utensils. The ambience is sort of like a Chipotle, or Panda... brightly lit w lots of windows- sort of get in line and go thru your selections, then sit yourself in tables or a few available booths. Abt 15-17 ea w drink. Again, grateful to have super greens, and delicious zesty flavors, but the inconsistency in my delivery order versus eating in is alarming. read more

First time visiting this establishment and the customer service was exceptional. Very helpful with the varieties and options for the bowls. Loved the pita chips. There is both in side and patio seating options. The sun provides ample light for the interior. read more

I try to avoid chains for more of the local places, but this place has the hospitality that most chains lack. The food was fresh, customizable for those who cannot eat meat, and full of flavor. The staff was friendly and helpful and answered all questions with a smile. Their sodas are Maine Root (minimal ingredients and delicious) and their juices use real ingredients with minimal sugar. I also felt like the food was worth the money. We will definitely make this a regular stop for us, and I think you could easily get something new every time and not get tired of the ingredients. Chattanooga needs more restaurants like this! read more

Food is good. Not the best Mediterranean I've had definitely fast food. Served like a salad with hummus. Everything tasted good Price was right. read more

I have only had cava one time previously in an airport and was in love, so when I saw the sign I started happy dancing. It did not disappoint. The quality of the food, the friendly and professional customer service and cleanliness was amazing. Then the beverage section of fresh juices is a must. I have done both dine and take out and have zero complaints so far. read more

I'd say cava is pretty good. The flavors are truly unique and amazing. I always enjoy my meal. My only complaint is that with assembly style dining the meat station can be under cared for and the meat can get dry. But everything is truly prepared well and delicious nonetheless. read more

Was curious about this being such a high rating, ended up eating here and it was indeed one of the best cavas that I've been to. Seemed brand new and very clean. The crew was quick and efficient. All the ingredients were perfect. Just an overall 11/10 cava experience read more

Tried it a couple of times through DoorDash and enjoyed my food. I read their meats are halal which is a great thing! I also read they don't use seed oils, if both of those are true I will update my review and give 5 stars and will eat here more often! read more

This place is awesome. I love a big hearty salad with many textures. If you're looking for something super healthy & super tasty this is the place. I regret not coming sooner on my Trip to Tennesse. The staff was wonderful and very inviting. Im the type to study the menu before I try a new spot and if there's too many good items it can be hard to choose so I love that they have a signature menu ontop of the build your own wrap/salad. read more

CAVA - Harissa chicken avocado - Mediterranean Near Me - Hixson, Tennessee

I came here with a group of 5. The line was slightly long but the staff got through everyone pretty quick. The staff were friendly and helpful when asked questions since we hadn't been there before. Everyone loved their food and the lime mint juice was good. The only downside was that it was pretty cold inside so I recommend a jacket. We could have been sitting close to a vent, but I think it was pretty chilly standing in line to. Unfortunately I didn't get any pictures but hopefully next time I come I'll remember. read more

Always busy, very yummy but a bit pricey but still enjoy the food! Like chipotle but mediterranean.

Bruh!? Fire-est of the meaty fire, folk! If I could cuss with excitement on here I would, but im keeping it professional. This place slaps! Get the cinnamon sugar pitas with honey for dessert, you wont be angry. I love it! read more

I've ordered from here a few times. Usually pick up. Each time I've enjoyed my meal. I typically make my own salad bowl with chicken and veggies. This time I chose steak..bad choice. The steak was very tough and they forgot my skhug sauces which I believe would have elevated the bowl dispite the tough steak. read more

My goodness! I'm in heaven. This place is amazing . I'm definitely someone who'll give a bad review when I'm disappointed. But if a place is just "alright" or "fair", I don't bother reviewing. Now, CAVA is more than good! They are outstanding! You can order from the menu or create your own custom order. But no matter what you order, you see everything that's going into your order. And it's ALL fresh and all delicious and omg ! Go now and thank me later. read more

The absolute best staff, incredible food, great portions, and beautifully clean. We walked in and the place was spotless, and there was someone cleaning tables quickly after people left. They were so patient and amazing with me ordering for three little kids. Seriously, the kindest, most patient staff and extremely helpful. They went out of their way to help me and explain the different options. Cannot recommend enough, new Sunday tradition! read more

The employees were extremely nice and we were super impressed by the food! I got the steak and harissa bowl with olives and my boyfriend built his own bowl. We will be back! Good vibes. read more

Cava's has been a family favorite for a few years and we were excited to finally have one here in town however the Cava's in Hixson we have had less than pleasant experiences. Each time we go it seems like they've reduced the servings of ingredients and have gotten to charging extra for everything. I now chose other choices over Cava's because it feels like they're on the struggle. Disappointed. read more

Susie and her staff catered a luncheon for twenty five members of the Newcomers club. Susie gave suggestions for bowls, proteins, toppings, etc! The meal was a BIG HIT and everyone loved it. The communication and service were excellent! read more

Love all my people at the Hixson Cava!!! Alyson, Ron, Reagan and Susie are always so personable and sweet to me while I am indecisive about which tasty entree I will enjoy today! read more

Wife and I went for lunch. 1st time visit. We got a build your own bowl. We went through the line and followed the servers lead. She said the avacodo was an extra so we did not get it. The casheir said a coke product came with it. We got water. I asked for an additional pita bread quarter. For some reason they charged us $3 extra for the bowl. No receipt was given. The extra 1/4 pita was $4.38 w/tax. I got a separate charge for that with receipt. Just watch what you are charged for! Good food! read more

This location constantly messes up my order and makes no effort to correct their mistakes. The portion sizes here are also very small compared to other locations. read more

Amazing fresh food! I could eat it every day! Staff is friendly and prices are good for a scratch kitchen.

Love the healthy food. But I downloaded their app so I could order and pick up. AFTER I placed my order the app stated that my food would be ready to pick up one hour and forty minutes later!!! I had to get dinner somewhere else and picked up my Cava order to eat for lunch the next day. I know they just opened and are very busy. I tried again a couple weeks later. A little better, only had to wait an hour. The worst part is that there is NO indication of the long wait time until AFTER placing and paying for your order. Clearly Hixson needs more heathy food restaurant options cause this place is great, but can't handle the demand. read more

the food was excellent and the people were really nice and efficient considering it was their first day on the job! only downside, i placed an online order and i waited for 45min just like a lot of other people. no one knew that you had to say your name when you got there so they could make your order in front of you. i would've liked it if they had a sign to tell us because i waited for such a long time for no reason. but the food was so so good!! read more
