Love going to this Cava, especially because the worker nayeli is so welcoming and has great customer service. The food is always phenomenal.

I was excited to check this out since we don't have one in STL, now I'm sad that we don't have one in STL. This is definitely a great lunch spot, the employees were super helpful since the food is Mediterranean, there are a few unfamiliar terms. We got here early and watched it fill up for lunch. Everything tasted fresh and I feel like I didn't kill my diet. Also decided if Cava and Qdoba or Chipotle were in the same area, I'm definitely coming here. read more

CAVA - Steak and Harissa - Mediterranean Near Me - Lee's Summit, Missouri

As someone with stomach issues, cava is one of my favorites. I go to this location off and on and everytime I go it's hit or miss but it's usually mostly good! The people there are always very nice. read more

This is of of me and my wife favorite place. Always good. The food is healthy and always filing!!

I was excited to try this restaurant for the first time. They were close to the field where my son was playing so it was convenient. I had the spicy lamb and avocado bowl and it was so flavorful and fresh. My son had the chicken shawarma pita which he really enjoyed. It was a lot of food for him (he's 13), and he was only able to eat half. He also enjoyed the mint lemonade. I can't wait until they open in St. Louis! read more

Every time I eat here I get violently ill. Cava allows employees to tamper with customers food. Doesn't disgusting https://x.com/ofz09xaumlpinbc/status/1932428523571929372?s=46&t=Xfnfsh_-DbFm-s7EM1Sg8Q read more

I AM OFFICIALLY A CAVA BABE!!!! I literally will be adding this to my weekly routine! I was VERY skeptical at first because I had a bad experience with Mediterranean food before. Isaac & Christian literally took their time explaining everything & allowed me to taste samples. There was another young lady that helped me with my topping sauces & she was super sweet too! There was literally a line behind me & they still stayed calm & helped me to build my bowl. I ate every single thing in my bowl! There was absolutely nothing left! HAHA. I will recommend Cava to everyone, ESPECIALLY this location! Thank you all soo much for a wonderful experience! I will be back! 1000/1000 Soo delicious! As far as the space itself. Lots of room to sit & eat with friends. We had a party of 7 & a kid! They regularly came out & wiped down tables, etc. it was all super clean & just great! read more

Sorry, chipotle I don't need you anymore... This place is 10 times better not to mention healthy great people working there and the choice of drinks so original and delicious... read more

Can you bring this up North by Zona for Gods sake! Great fast casual Mediterranean cuisine and especially if you get the sauce on the side otherwise it's too much in my opinion and I can't eat it all. But it a great place for a quick lunch and a fresh meal for a light dinner or lunch. read more

This place has become my new addiction! I love having this Mediterranean - salad type healthy option near home. I can still stay on my calorie deficit eating here as their website and app adds up all the calories for you. They are fast and accurate in ordering. Only time I've had any delay or issues is on Sunday afternoons when the lines are out the door, otherwise everything has been smooth! The hummus, pickled onions, tzatzikis sauce are a must and I love having a mix of steak & chicken as my meats. Everything tastes delicious! read more

CAVA - Salad bowl - Mediterranean Near Me - Lee's Summit, Missouri

Cava is sort of a Greek fast food equivalent - the setup is similar to Chipotle - you pick a bowl or pita, then choose the toppings you want. I definitely love seeing some different-than-expected fast food options in this area. Usually it's just burgers and fries or Mexican food, so Greek food is a welcome change of pace!! The staff at this location were very friendly and it was easy to customize my order the way I liked it. The food is good, but I do think it's a bit on the salty side. This could be because I had them add kalamata olives - probably a mistake on my part because those are generally very salty. I still really liked my food despite the saltiness. A pretty great thing that I'm seeing in a lot of newer fast food chains like Cava is the amount of healthy options. I noticed that almost everything on the menu seemed fresh and on the healthier side. The interior was nice, and pretty typical of this style of restaurant. So if you're looking for a quick, yet healthy option for lunch or dinner, Cava is a good option!! read more

Walking in feels welcoming. They were quite busy, but we were still able to find a seat. The employees make it easy on you to order. They ask you and walk through each step of what you want starting with your greens base. I let them know I am temporarily on a special diet and they guided me through it asking if I wanted two types of greens, two to three types of dip, etc. the food was fresh and delicious. Avocado is an extra charge but worth it as they give you a heap of it, almost the size of a full one. Whether I'm still on this special diet or going back to a more regular diet, I cannot wait to go back and try more. I highly recommend the eggplant dip. That was delicious!! (I regret I didn't get a picture. I was with a friend and engrossed in conversation.) read more

I first tried Cava back in October 2023 and, unfortunately, had a disappointing experience with my custom bowl order. It was missing all of the dips/spreads selections as well as the feta, and attempts to reach the restaurant to resolve the issue were unsuccessful. As a result, I left a bad review. However, I reached out to them on their website to share my experience, and they went above and beyond to make it right. They loaded a gift card for a meal onto my rewards account, which I appreciated. Since then, I've been back several times and have had nothing but positive experiences. I've come to really enjoy the fresh Mediterranean fare at Cava. The pitas are my favorite, and I also love the kids' meals - they're so good! It's become a favorite spot of mine in Lee's Summit, and I highly recommend it to anyone craving delicious and healthy Mediterranean cuisine. read more

CAVA - Kids Meal! - Mediterranean Near Me - Lee's Summit, Missouri

If you haven't tried this yet, you're crazy. 90 thousand times better than Chipotle (yes, I know the cuisine is different). 80 thousand times better than Qdoba. Worth every penny to have delivered of you don't feel like getting out. The service was great at this location when I went in a couple months ago. It was clean and had a chill vibe. read more

CAVA - I made my own bowl with spicy greens, chicken, etc. - Mediterranean Near Me - Lee's Summit, Missouri

James and Teresa are the best! Came in didn't know what I really wanted and Teresa helped and James helped with the sauce

I love a good Cava bowl! I've only been to a couple of Cava locations, so I don't have much to compare this one to, but I thought it was good. They were busy on a Saturday afternoon, but managed to keep the line moving so we didn't wait too long. There was no seating available indoors, but they have outdoor seating and it wasn't terribly hot, so I sat outside. I would definitely go back, read more

Absolutely DELICIOUS. I wanted to try the lemon chicken salad because lemon chicken is my favorite and I saw a review about it but after my third trip to CAVA in 2 weeks I've found my favorites! The grain bowl is the way to go and my absolute favorite toppings are the red pepper hummus, crazy feta, tomato + onion and pickled onion. The lemon vinaigrette is SO LEMONY and it's delicious! The skhug id never had before but I really enjoyed it - basically a Greek pesto. And the garlic dressing is a MUST I wish I could get a larger side of it. But the very best thing at CAVA is the pita crisps and red pepper hummus. I would go just for the sides. The only negative I have is the Blondie is almost $4 and it's TINY, it's decent but not worth the price. The cookie is better anyway. I'll definitely be back again and again- my new favorite! read more

I came here yesterday for lunch with my husband after he tried it two weeks ago with our son, and they both enjoyed their meals. I know that over a month ago, I had tried the Harissa Chicken meat here, and I thought it was a bit too salty. I still feel it's on the salty side; however, if in a bowl or in a wrap, I feel the meal can be decent, and maybe with some exceptions per customer's liking. Because I am a bit sensitive to taste, and in particular salt, I had to make some omissions to my Greek Chicken Wrap. I had omitted the salty pickles, and I believe next time I will most likely tell them to omit the Greek Vinaigrette, because honestly, it isn't necessary. It seems that with the hummus and tzatziki sauce there is plenty of saucy stuff to give the wrap plenty of taste without it needing a quarter cup of Greek Vinaigrette to saturate the wrap. I took a picture of the wrap after first bite and after several bites so that you can see the shiny saturation from vinaigrette. I also chose arugula instead of romaine, since I like arugula best. My husband had his build your own bowl, and can't recall what he put in it, but again he enjoyed it well. The service was good at the place, and haven't had any issues with the help here. It is still set up similar to Chipotle's setup but at least the people behind the counter here have a better attitude and interest in serving your meal to your liking. Overall, I also felt that the meal wasn't too badly priced for two meals at under $25, and it is much healthier too than fast food places. Last, but not least, I really enjoyed their signature beverages here. The blueberry lavender was out of this world. read more

I recommend Cava! The Harissa avocado is great and Ivonne provides excellent service every time!

Outstanding food at a very affordable price. If you like Mediterranean food...you will adore CAVA!

10/10 I would recommend this to everyone. Amazing food, good prices, and lots of variety!! I would recommend going in to order as online ordering can get messed up, it has happened a few times to me but the food is still delicious. Cava is hands down better than chipotle and filled with more flavor and vegetables read more

The food is always very good here. The issue is the customer service is spotty at best. Today, the woman adding the dressing and such forgot my pickles (comes with the spicy chicken+avocado pita) and I politely asked for the pickles and she pointed to the onions stating they're already on there, rolling her eyes at me. As she applied the dressing, she rudely said, more?! I had to wait to pay for my order, stayed in the store, unwrapped the pita, then showed the gentleman at the register I had no pickles and he helped me out. Even if the pita didn't come with pickles, when asked, just add them. I still have to pay after that point, so if you think you have to charge me, so be it. It cost nothing to check your attitude at the door. We were not rude, needy, etc., I simply wanted what I paying for and your employee was on some rude power trip. read more

Definitely recommend this place. The lady who helped me was very friendly. Nayeli I think was her name. Definitely clean and well kept. The food was good I've never tried it til today read more

One of the worst cavas I've been to. Staff didn't want to be there at all. But the rice was literally crunchy hard since it was sitting there all day. Place was dirty, just not going to come to this one again. read more

We were wanting something different... My wife had been here before. So the pita chips are really good. Nice selection of some different drinks. Set up is a lot like Chipotle... Go thru line and choose your stuff. I think the screen should have the make your own menu stuff to left instead of on the right side where you pay. My wife got a Greek salad bowl and I tried falafel pita but with half lamb and no garlic... They're very accommodating. The pita was soft. The sauces and fillings were fresh. After one pm and they were very busy with both inside and patio seating nearly full. They were falling behind on wiping tables and the counter. The visit was nice enough and did was good enough of come back but $30 for lunch seems over priced for me but I know that's where most places are now. The lemonade is really good. read more

I enjoyed Cava. It is Mediterranean food with a set up similar to Subway, Pita Pit and many other similar establishments. I had the spicy lamb pita. It was not very spicy but still had good flavor. My wife had the balsamic chicken which she also enjoyed. They had a wide variety of lemonade drinks which were also good. The staff was efficient and the food areas were clean. Only drawback was the bathroom. Apparently one was without toilet paper and a family member had the get some from the staff. Otherwise the bathrooms were clean. read more

Great service from Nayeli in less summit,Mo Food was great fast and fresh. i would definitely come back again read more

Everything tastes fresh. Kinda pricey but worth it. Hope they open more locations around the metro area.

Every time, I come to KC and visit family my first stop is Cava, I don't have one in Des Moines. I love how fresh the food is here, the bowls are my go-to, and they can be customized to your liking my favorite is the Harissa Avocado bowl. They have vegan and gluten-free options, the pita chips are a must, get them while they are fresh and hot! Love the choices for the fresh in-house juice as well. Service is always good never have an issue, it's like a sit-down fast-food restaurant. If you are looking to have a well-rounded meal check this place out read more

The food was not good. I got the steak bowl and it tasted like lamb had been cooked on the grill before it and not cleaned. No seasoning, bland, cold at pick up and pricy. They think highly of themselves and their products but it's not on par with their prices. Skip! read more

The service was fast and friendly and the food was amazing. The potions are huge and I didn't feel bad at all eating all of it. The restaurant was clean and they have most delicious lemonade flavors. I had the blueberry lavender and it was soooo good. read more

Cava is such a yummy, satisfying, low calorie, healthy meal for my endless quest to control my diet. I can put together a meal online and know exactly how many calories are in it. I usually go with the bowl on greens with the dressing on the side. I have enough calories left over to do a couple baked pitas, such a treat! Ordering online, the only meal prep necessary ;-), and picking up is so easy and convenient. read more

Delicious and great service. I enjoyed that the restaurant had indoor and outdoor seating. Friendly staff that was happy to accommodate any changes to our order. Pita chips were especially tasty! read more

CAVA - Outdoor seating and pita - Mediterranean Near Me - Lee's Summit, Missouri

Ordered from here a few times, the online mobile app is very user friendly. I can add and remove whatever I want. If the food isn't that great I only have myself to blame. My favorite is the steak mezze salad with pita chips. Delicious! Picking up from the store has been an easy experience except for once when the pick up shelf was empty and I had to wait for them to put my items in the bag. Also another time I asked via the app for the free pita and it was not included. Other than that the food is great and I recommend. read more

Nice little fast food alternative. The employee we first encountered was so gracious with samples, ensuring that we enjoyed everything we ordered. The dining from seemed a little awkward to maneuver but food was good for a nice change of pace. I did try a falafel and it was pretty mushy... not what I was expecting... I probably wouldn't order it. read more

CAVA - 3 bowls that we already ate. All have saffron rice and greens and we made them not one of the suggested bowls. - Mediterranean Near Me - Lee's Summit, Missouri

I love love love this place! Taste amazing and it's super healthy! BUT, the only negative thing which is a pretty big deal is every time I get a chicken bowl I get 1-2 pieces of bone or tendon in the chicken. I fear my next bowl will be my last if it happens again. I've ate here 3 times and just now my fourth and it had a small bone again. Please correct CAVA! read more

Sooooo love this place!! The food is fresh and s so good!! The customer service is TOP NOTCH!! Relaxed atmosphere. It reminds me of two of my favorite places in other states I've lived! I love to see Kansas City growing the way it is!! read more

Twice in a row now, they have forgotten my sauces when I order for delivery. I have to drive down to the restaurant to ask for my sauce, kindly, and they give me an attitude as though it's my fault. And when I ask for a free drink for the repeated inconvenience, they deny even something as small as that. They don't like to talk accountability for their mistakes so I will not be eating at this cava anymore. It's worth the drive to just go somewhere else, honestly. read more
