    Dear Cava, I just want to say... I love you. Seriously. Since going vegetarian, you've been my go-to, my comfort food, my no-stress lunch or dinner that always hits. You keep it fresh. You keep it flavorful. You keep me full and feeling good. You're basically the reason I'm staying strong on this health journey because I don't have to give up taste to eat clean. The bowls? Perfection. Endless joy. I walk in and feel like I'm building a masterpiece every time. Service is decent and the inside reminds me of chipotle when it comes to looks but I don't even care. I'd still come if it were bad service and no seats You're reliable, delicious, and the best part of my week. Thank you for existing and for making it easy to eat well without giving up flavor or fun. Forever yours, A loyal fan

    Whenever I'm in Richmond for work we frequently order cava for lunch and it always hits the spot. Ingredients are fresh and tasty.

    First time..love it!

    I have only been to 4 cava locations and this one is my favorite one. I go there once or twice every week and most times I have gotten great experience. The staff are patient and kind, they answer questions and treat everyone with respect from what I have seen. I highly recommend this location. I see that they make sure the place is clean. Also, we are never in line for too long. I have been trying to watch my calories and I like how I can go on the cava site and see the calories in everything I would like to get. My usual is half and half with romaine lettuce and brown rice, Tzatziki, half n half Harissa Honey Chicken and sweet potato. For toppings, I get fire roasted corn, tomatoes n cucumber, Persian cucumber and feta. Yogurt dill for dressing. I get the free side pita sometimes, also the pita chips and the pita crisps. Simple but good. I like the dietary options especially since my family, we are not big meat eaters and my dad has been a vegan for close to 40 years now. I take him to cava and he loves it, he has no problem with ordering food there like other places. I have had about 4 people try cava and now they tell me they are addicted. Keyshawn is great! He is so kind and he gets us to try new things. He always got a smile on. We also met India a couple of times and she was amazing. It might have been her first day the first time we saw her and she did great. She was polite and kind. I haven't had any issues with staff but I have noticed some are not as friendly as some, different personalities I guess.

    Great experience. Stayed at a nearby hotel and stopped in for lunch. We were greeted immediately, and everyone was very friendly. The food was fresh and tasty with more than ample portions. I got something very basic because I don't like rice or beans, it was delicious!

    I love coming here but I hate how they burn the veggies EVERY TIME. No one wants burnt food.

Upon entering, you will see 2 kiosk to order your food with plenty of pictures, so we did just that. I think you can also order at the counter, a few steps ahead. There were many options to choose from like salads, wraps, and bowls. We chose the Lemon Crush Bowl and Chicken Tinga Bowl. Both were equally delicious and satisfying. First, you choose your base. It comes with warm grains, but if you want extra grains or cauliflower rice, there is an up charge. Then, you get to play with the ingredients it comes with by adding or taking away some. The same with the dressing.They have so many to pick from and because I was curious, I ordered the ENZO Eureka Lemon Crush Olive Oil on the side. It is a strong lemon and olive oil taste, but good in moderation. The Greek goddess dressing was just fine, but I had try another one and no complaints. Also, you have the option of getting half a slice of bread with your bowl. Great way to push some of the last of it onto your fork. Overall, this was a healthy choice. It is on average $10-$13 per dish, but you know you're eating right. The "Taco Bell next door" temptation fizzled fast and I left feeling so grown up. Go check them out.

You can tell from the moment you walk in that everything is thoughtfully done, from the colorful decor to the fresh ingredients in every dish. We dined in and had a great experience from start to finish. Ordering was simple and quick. They also offer takeout and app-based ordering if you're on the go. The menu has plenty of taco options, and everything we tried tasted incredibly fresh. I had the chicken tacos, which were juicy and full of flavor. My wife chose the chorizo tacos, which had the perfect mix of spice and savoriness. We ended up sharing and trying a little of each, and both were excellent. The salsas really stood out. I tried the carrot hot sauce, and despite not liking carrots at all, I was surprised by how good it was. Our child had the quesadilla meal, which is an amazing value at $8.99. It includes a quesadilla, chips, a cookie, a drink, and even a rubber duck. It was a fun and satisfying meal. The lunch taco deal is another great option. For $12.99, you get two tacos, chips, and a drink. Considering the quality, this is a fantastic deal. Chicano Boy gets the basics right and adds thoughtful, fun touches that make the experience memorable. We are already looking forward to coming back.

I got a beef bowl and a side of refried beans. I felt like the portion size was really good. The ingredients were fresh. The ground beef in the bowl was a little bit salty and I also thought the refried beans were a little too salty as well. I was full and I couldn't really finish the whole thing. I will definitely go again to try other things. If I get the bowl again I would try a different protein.

    I have had soooo many wonderful experiences at Wood & Iron which is why I keep giving them a chance…read morebecause it could easily just be a bad day, but their menus are changing, the service is shifting (not in a positive direction), portions are smaller & prices are the same. This used to be a place where you'd have to wait for a table every time, but now the restaurant is half empty and I see why! When I was ordering my food our server was slightly rude & I was taken aback (but you never want someone to spit in your food so I ignored it lol). As I was ordering my food she repeated my wing order to me as she was typing it in, but she did not acknowledge the fact that I asked for all flats so I said all flats again & her response was an "I heard" under her breath which others at my table noticed the rudeness associated with it as well. The wings visibly looked different but fine, however once I started moving them around, I noticed they were dry & chewy like they were over-fried, but normally when I get them they are moist with a slight char from being grilled even tough they are dry rubbed. The loaded baked potato I was a shock to me..a lot more cheese than potato and it was cold. I'm simply very unsatisfied. I took my food home with me & ended up just throwing it all away. They've still got the best blue cheese though, hope that doesn't change! I've got lots of points to use so I'm going to just try a different location & pray. My two times at Short Pump have been better than the last six-eight months at Midlo.
