    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!

    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!

    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!!

    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.

    I made my own bowl with spicy greens, chicken, etc.

    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.

    Cat B.

    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!

    Good fast casual food option. Generally healthy food, but sodium levels remain high. I had the Greek salad and enjoyed it.

Chicken Gyro (no tzatziki) - Large, well-grilled pita with tomatoes. Simple and solid--this is why we came. It delivered for her--she was in a full-on food coma after. (4/5) Beef/Lamb Gyro - Enormous--one of the biggest I've had. Nice grilled crust on the pita, tasty meat. (4/5) Wish it came with diced onions, and the tomatoes were diced instead of sliced. Tzatziki is a bit thinner and slightly off from what I'm used to. But on mine, there was some on the sandwich and a side--hadn't seen that before. It actually worked well, kept the meat moist--without making it mushy--and let me add more as needed. Added sambal for heat, which helped. Kebab Platter - Mixed bag. Steak kebab was solid (medium rare), minced kebab was decent (in between), chicken was just okay. Rice was very dry--I think I noticed some sumac on top, but either way it didn't help. The salad was excellent--fresh with a lot of pop. Not something I'd order again, but if I did, I'd eat the salad with the rice and kebabs instead of starting with it. It adds the moisture and pop the rest of the plate is missing. That said, each component should stand on its own. (3/5) Overall: 4/5 Gyros carry. Salad and steak kebab were nice, but the platter didn't land. I'd stick to gyros or just do a steak kebab plate next time.

    You know you ordered too much food when they give you 3 sets of utensils and you really only…read moreordered for yourself hahaha! Anyway, I wanted to try a few things and of course I had lots of leftovers. I ordered online for a scheduled pickup. I got there a bit too early, but just had a seat and waited only a couple of minutes, which is completely fine since I was early. I had a lamb gyro with fries, the shrimp appetizer, hummus, lentil soup and a baklava that was free due to my order total. I loved the food so much! The first order from a place always has a bit of a learning curve, so there's some things I'll maybe order differently or with slightly different instructions (like sauce on the side) but not that there was anything wrong, just my personal preferences. The hummus, pita and gyro were so delicious! The lentil soup was ordered for someone else so I only had a tiny taste and it was fine. My judgement of any lentil soup is going to not be very exciting as it's just not my "thing". The shrimp appetizer was delicious but I'm not sure I'd get it again due to the cost and the fact that it was just 5 or 6 shrimp. I'm sure the price is fair, but just for me personally, I doubt I'd get it again. Their online ordering doesn't offer some options that I'd like to see, such as if you choose soda as a beverage it doesn't tell you what options are available. Also, I like to be able to order extra sides of pita and sauce, things like that.

I had the lamb kabobs with rice and veggies. I believe the overall dish could have used a bit more seasoning. Additional cucumber yogurt sauce would have been nice as well. I'd give the dish a 6/10. Can't speak to the customer service as my interaction with staff with was extremely brief. However, the service wasn't horrible.
