    I get food from here about once a week, and it never disappoints! Everything always tastes so fresh, healthy, and full of flavor. It's the kind of place you can rely on for consistently good meals that leave you feeling satisfied without being too heavy. Definitely one of my regular go-to spots!

    I am very much obsessed with Cava. I love to build my own bowl. I start with half brown rice and half super greens. For the dips I get Tzatziki, Harissa and Roasted eggplant... I love their Harissa Honey Chicken for my protein. As far as toppings... my most recent visit I got feta, fire roasted corn, fiery broccoli and extra pickled onions- the best part! You have to top it off with the balsamic date vinaigrette. You're welcome :). It's soo flavorful and super healthy. It's usually so much food... I have the other half the next day!

    Cava in Lake Mary has quickly become one of my go to spots when I want something fresh and flavorful without the stress of waiting around. I usually order ahead for pick up, and I have to give them credit--my food is always ready right on time, and more often than not, it is actually waiting for me a little early. That kind of reliability makes a huge difference when you are trying to grab something quick during a busy day. Another thing I appreciate is how fast the line moves. At first glance, it can look intimidating because it stretches across the restaurant with hungry guests waiting their turn. But somehow the staff keeps it moving like a well practiced orchestra. Before you know it, you are already at the counter, building your bowl and wondering why you ever doubted them in the first place. Now for the one area that could use some love--the dining space. On a couple of occasions, the tables have been a bit too sticky to sit down and really enjoy the meal inside. It is not every time, but enough to notice. A quick refresh between guests would take the experience from good to great. Even with that small flaw, I would still give Cava in Lake Mary a solid four stars. The food is consistent, the service is quick, and the convenience of perfectly timed to go orders keeps me coming back. With just a little extra attention to the dining area, it could easily be a five star stop.

    This is my Cava I go to or order from when I'm having it during the work day. It's a quick commute for me, right up the I-4. Ambiance is standard, but I do like that unlike other quick service restaurants that have been popping up lately, there is actual room to move around in the dining room, and actual seats to sit down and have lunch. No pressure to get in and get out. I like that. Service is always wonderful. It's perfectly optimized for me. I tell them which bowl I want, I tell them if I want any alterations made to the bowl, and I paying and leaving. Very efficient. Now the food, the food is redonkulous. It's Mediterranean based, so it's already delicious, with the feta, the tzatziki, the hummuses, the harissa, it's just so good. On top of the food being good, why I really frequent this place, they can make you a good bowl at a responsible calorie count! I count my calories, and if I'm going out to lunch, it's usually impossible to find a meal anywhere that keeps things between 500-700 calories, and if you do, you're eating a boring salad or a boring piece of grilled chicken on a cardboard bun. Here, I get the Tahini Caesar (550 calories- Grilled chicken, hummus, pita crisps, pickled onions, feta, romaine, arugula, Tahini Caesar dressing), I eat the delicious bowl, I have stayed on my health and wellness journey without straying from the path, and I am happy. Thank you, Cava. Your existence has made my life easier than you know.

    Do not order online for pickup. My bowls are half empty. This is not worth the $12 to $14 I paid for these. The food tastes good but I will not be ordering online again. Very disappointed in this location as I've ordered online before from other locations with no issues.

    Looove this place !! The food always gives me a "feel good" vibe and I don't feel sluggish after eating it which is always a plus!! Service is fast and we've always received fresh food I love the honey harissa chicken but it is alittle spicy if you enjoy that but the grilled chicken is just as delicious without the spicy. My go to bowl is: white rice , spinach , grilled chicken , roasted corn, tomato & cucumber , pita crisps , feta , pickled onions and balsamic date sauce on the side

    Cava is one of my go-to spots! I visit often and usually get a kids' meal because it's the perfect portion--and such a great value. The braised lamb is my favorite, and even the meatballs are incredible. I recently tried the honey sriracha chicken, and it might be my new obsession--it's so flavorful! The staff, especially Red and PJ, are amazing. They always make sure everything is perfect, whether I'm dining in or ordering on DoorDash. Even if I need to call about an order, they're super helpful and accommodating. Cava never disappoints!

    Falafel bowl
    Brittany M.

    My first experience with CAVA after I saw the on instagram and the food looked delicious! Stopped at chick fil a for the kids and decided to try out a bowl from here. We sat outside I ordered online and it was ready within 10minutes. The inside was clean and very opened I like that you can see the food be made right in front you. The lady working the front was so kind gave me my order with everything I could have possibly needed! The bowl itself looked so bright and delicious I couldn't wait to try it. The falafel itself was the perfect bite nicely seasoned and crusted on the outside. The bowl was fantastic the flavor went great together that I still crave this bowl and it's been a few weeks since I tried them last. Also I was surprised to see Maine root drinks I haven't seen them in awhile and they taste so good.

    Fast casual with friendly service. Bright and open space, although tables are a little sticky, even after cleaned. Food tasted and looked fresh.

    I got the grilled chicken salad and it was honestly really satisfying. The chicken was still warm and had a nice seasoning, not bland like some places. The greens were fresh and crunchy, not wilted at all. The vinaigrette was light but flavorful and brought everything together. I liked that they didn't drown the salad in dressing. Service was friendly and my food came out quickly. Definitely something I'd get again when I want a lighter meal.

    We found Filo almost by accident -- my husband had a work event at a wine bar in the same plaza,…read moreand as we were leaving and debating where to grab a late dinner, we saw this spot and decided to give it a try. So glad we did. The concept is very Chipotle-style, but for Greek food. You walk down the line and build your meal exactly how you want it: * Choose a base (pita, greens, fries, or rice) * Pick your protein (I went with the traditional gyro; my husband chose the honey balsamic chicken -- and WOW. It was so good I'm ordering that next time.) * Add toppings * Scoop on hummus and feta dips * Finish with sauces Everything tasted fresh and flavorful. My gyro had that classic savory richness you expect, but the honey balsamic chicken completely stole the show -- tender with a sweet-tangy depth that balanced beautifully with the toppings. The space is casual with simple metal seating inside and outside. No table service -- you order at the line and seat yourself -- which makes it easy for a relaxed dinner. The staff was especially helpful when we mentioned it was our first time, patiently walking us through options without rushing us. Our total was $40.49 for two people, which felt very reasonable for the portion sizes and quality. We left full and genuinely impressed. They do offer dessert options, but we were too stuffed to try them this round. Fresh, flavorful, customizable, and officially added to our rotation. We'll definitely be back!

The vegetables are roasted, colorful, and clearly prepped daily. Lots of healthy choices! They also have a great selection of sauces and veggies, so you can customize everything exactly how you like it. Each sauce has its own flavor without overpowering the food, and the variety keeps it interesting. I absolutely love their cilantro garlic sauce and their tzatziki sauce was phenomenal too. I highly recommend getting their honey chicken with a base of rice or kale and all of the vegetables that you want to try. I really loved that they had roasted cauliflower too. I love the variety and the staff accommodating me on my first visit with all my questions about the sauces, meats, and veggies. This definitely feels like a healthy, fast casual option and I will definitely be coming back for more nourishing meals.

    Fresh Kitchen is very underrated!!…read more It's a fresh and healthy version of Chipotle. That is fairly generic that everyone can find something to eat and enjoy. Even our children ages 8 and 11 like it. Disclaimer they are less picky than most kids. This location is in a plaza and is easy to access. The inside is always clean, there are always some people, the busiest I've seen it is during lunch hour and even then it's fast service. Everything always tastes fresh, I've never felt like something was sitting too long. We always get the pick 4 which is around $12 and it's more than enough to fill up a large appetite or if you're a smaller eater you could stretch it to two meals. To start I always get the rice and kale salad as my base, my wife gets the sweet potato noodles and brown rice. Both variations taste awesome. For my veggie I always get broccoli, my wife typically gets green beans. Their veggies are always cooked just right, not mushy but not raw. For meat, I typically get blackened chicken, cause I love chicken and want something on the spiced end. Although it's not spicy. My wife typically gets the same or the BBQ or sometimes the Salmon. To finish they have different toppers like cucumber salad or feta salad. They cost extra. I've never needed to get them but they do look good. Lastly, we always get the ginger sauce on top, it's so good. They have other sauces too. They also have an interesting supply of drinks that include juices and protein shakes. If you've not tried Fresh Kitchen you're missing out.

I love all of their choices and their "Chipotle" style ordering. It feels guilt free with so many healthier options. I got the blackened chicken this time and I loved the seasoning but it was way too fatty for me I had to stop eating it. I will return but would probably get their salmon or go meatless the next time. My favorites were the cauliflower mash, broccoli and citrus avocado. Also, their agua frescas and lemonade are a must try. Always delicious! This is a great spot for healthy options on your lunch break. Nice fast casual restaurant that is always kept clean and offer a lot of sustainable disposable options.

I'm a chicken tendie boy at heart so decided to give their Nugget Dinner a go. The food was healthy and tasty, especially their sweet potato fries! Crispy on the outside but nice and fluffy on the inside! But here's the problem...the potion size is just way too small. There's not nearly enough protein in the bowl to act as a post-gym workout meal and I was left still pretty hungry. It's really sad because the food was actually really good! The place also offers meal plans for people who are looking for that kinda thing. I thought the pricing and stuff were kinda confusing but the people there are pretty nice and I'm sure they would take the time to explain things better if meal planning is something that interests you. Ambiance and vibes were cool though, we liked the little outside area they had! We played a little bit of cornhole after we ate and had a lot of fun! But please, please, please Clean Eatz...add more chicken to the Nugget Dinner. The food is so good and I just want more of it! Until the portions get a little bigger or the prices drop a bit I'm not sure if I will be visiting anytime soon.

The food was made fresh, with local and delicious ingredients. All of the nutritional value was listed, and you knew exactly what you were getting. Hubby ordered the bison burger with turkey bacon, and I opted for the bbq chicken flatbread. We loved that neither of the meals required any condiments or additional seasonings. Hubby stated that it didn't even need mayo which was wild. He got steamed broccoli as his side (he did say he wished the portion was larger), and I got fresh veggies with some sort of tzatziki sauce. Both were delicious. The food was very hot temp wise, and our drink of watermelon water was refreshing. They also offer personalized meal prep, as well as grab and go meals for daily consumption, or if you just need a quick dinner. Will be using this location for meal prep next week. Definitely check them out!
