Harissa Avocado Bowl
Brenda M.

New place in town. Smells good and looks good ,everything fresh. You walk up to a counter and you can create your bowl or pick a bowl created. Tip: best create your own bowl comes out less expensive. They have this small bag of Pits chips 10/10 You do get a small piece of soft pita with your bowl. I order the Harissa Avocado Bowl,all ingredients sounded delicious together. It read Honey Chicken (thinking it was little sweet) well it wasn't I found the bowl spicy and couldn't eat it. Not sure exactly what part of my bowl was spicy I believe it was the Honey chicken ,wish they would have said it somewhere on the menu board. Sad cause I was hungry. Service was okay not the best considering it can see overwhelming for your first time ordering .

Mexican diet cola

We stopped by for dinner and had the build your own bowls. The place was quite busy, however the staff were moving the line fast. I love the concept of build your own, generous portion and selection of sauces, proteins, toppings, greens, and grains. The food is flavorful and fresh. Their diet Mexican cola was so good, no aftertaste or fake sugar taste. We sat outside and enjoyed the sunny and cool evening. The fried pitas were the best, perfectly seasoned and crispy. I'm so glad we have a nearby CAVA.

Great new location! This morning I saw an all women crew. The place was spotless and they served very well. Will def come back, the ambience was super clean and muted colors on brand.

I'm so glad this place opened up closer to me. We go here every week. Portions are generous and they give you plenty of protein. I have the app so I order from there and it's ready pretty fast. It is in a busy plaza so parking can be hard.

Came to a soft opening for cava today through event brite. All the staff new and seasoned were polite and conversational to keep time going and not seemed like we were there for about an hr to order. Line moved fast once inside. Chose braised lamb because some of the options had ran out when we arrived at our time to order. But they were refilled quickly so timing for that was good. First time in a Cava. Was bright and clean nice lighting and ambiance. Was a flavorful bowl. Added roasted corn, spicy broccoli, and chose harissa sauce and a SKHUG sauce so cilantro and spices.I chose mixed greens and brown rice for my base and came with a warmed pita slice. They have very different drinks but I chose to do half blueberry lavender with some lemonade and a splash of their blueberry soda. Not overpowering at all and tasted good to me.

The new Salmon Bowl intrigued me, so I made a visit with my wife to this new location. There was a short line, but it seemed to go by fast. This location seems smaller than the Pasadena location but did have a nice patio to dine al fresco.

I just had an awesome experience. While I didn't get their names, I was attended by two very awesome people wearing glasses, guy with a hat and glasses and girl with an awesome smile and glasses. It was my first time and they guided me so kindly and even showed some love and comped by bowl. This is exactly what I'm talking about. I love yall and thank you so much.

Got there around 7:45pm and there was a long line which went by fairly quickly. They had a great assembly line and the gals were holding down the fort. They were very friendly and super sweet! The food looks amazing, they have a new drink called orange allepo, will try it next time! Great location for gym goers and shoppers, ambiance is always nice!

Soooooo happpppppppy Cava is in Monrovia now! Roshel is awesome, nice and pleasant! Facilities is clean. So excited!

Vicki K.

This is definitely a busy place. They're still working out the kinks behind the counter where you're all the employees are putting items on. Your bowl is dirty. There's sauces mixed with end with each each other. Your bowl if you don't pay attention, may go to the next person, one in front of you were behind. And don't get me started that this is the bowl how you like it they insist on doing what they wanted to manager, said I could not put lettuce on the side it had to be on the top. Thank goodness at least the ingredients of the bowl is the same as always. I will not be coming back to this location. I will drive to the one in Azusa off of Alosta. At least tried to give them the benefit of the doubt, but it's not worth an aggravation.

Chicken greens and grains bowl
Cher B.

This is my 1st time trying CAVA. My son has mentioned it to me as he has one near him down south. Pasadena just a little out-of-the-way for my convenience. So when I saw this was coming in, I was excited and couldn't wait. I actually didn't go the very first week or so after it opened because the lines were out the door. I was running some errands today and stopped in around 11 and it was perfect. One person ahead of me. Indra, who was the initial server was really sweet. I told her it was my first time and I wasn't sure what to do so she helped me a little. I ended up getting the chicken and grain bowl which apparently they don't have anymore as it's seasonal. I got it with Romain because I don't like arugula. It came with the brown rice, which was fine. It's actually very good. And then I added some great toppings, the olives, feta cheese, pickled onions, tomato, and onion mixture and cucumbers. I opted for the hummus and tzatziki scoops. I got the Greek vinaigrette and garlic (something) dressings. Also got a crazy feta scoop. The cashier today was Peyton and she was so nice. It was a very good size bowl, a lot of food and absolutely delicious. I forgot to grab the sour cream and onion sumac chips, which I wanted for the crazy feta. But I dipped my free pita piece in the crazy feta and oh my gosh, I was blown away by the flavor. I took my order to go, but because it was early there was plenty of seats/tables. I will definitely be back. And will of course go when it's not busy because this was perfect. I paid $14 for the bowl- a little pricey but justified by the amount of food in the bowl. I wish you could get bigger scoops of the crazy feta dip, though. I wasn't charged for it by the way.

OVERPRICED!!! Please look at the hummus container. They charged me $3.55 for a tiny side of hummus. Two extra rolled pita bread. They charged me $5.50. I attached the receipt. I am too tired to complain and I don't want to create a scene. The food is great. Note: I know they just open this location. But no excuse when it comes to cleanliness. They need to power wash the outside dining area floor. It's dirty.

We ordered the prince meal set for 10-12 people with an extra order of French fries for the little kiddies in our group. The meats were flavorful and tender. The portion sizes were perfect for our family. I love that they also give a generous side of hummus and tzatziki. The pita chips were delicious and we all really enjoyed the grilled vegetables.

It's honestly become part of our weekly routine. However, I wanted to share a not-so-great experience we had today regarding the service. I called in a takeout order, and when I arrived, there was a new cashier. She was on her phone texting and didn't acknowledge us for quite a while, so we had to wait before being helped. When it came time to pay, I simply asked to confirm whether the cash discount had already been applied. Her response came with a noticeably rude attitude. While I was trying to find the exact change, she seemed visibly impatient. After receiving some coins I didn't need, I placed them in the tip jar. She immediately took them out and said in a very cold tone, "Please take it back, I don't need your tips." Honestly, that was surprising and quite uncomfortable -- it's the first time I've encountered such unfriendly service here. We still really enjoy the food and appreciate the owner, but I hope the service experience can improve moving forward.

From getting the correct number of place settings, water for the table and food to arrive, service was so incredibly slow. We hunted down the waiter a couple times, as he didn't really check on our party. Dirty dishes from other patrons sat for awhile on empty tables. Despite the wait, food was good, edible. Portion sizes are huge, so come hungry. I got the combo kebab plate (see my pic) and everything taste as expected. Pita bread was a bit dry and hard. Good value for the price here. Inside and outside seating. Large free parking. My group sat outside, as there was outdoor fans cooling us off on such a warm afternoon.

Family owned and operated; Corfu specializes in Mediterranean food. This friendly neighborhood restaurant is small and quaint and the staff are warm and welcoming, especially Ryan & Maribel who took excellent care of us during our visit. I was curious to try the Muhammara (a dip made of crushed walnuts & red pepper paste.) I've never had it before, but it was particularly good. The fresh warm pita & Muhammara was a delightful combination. I couldn't stop eating it. The Greek Salad was a generous serving comprised of lettuce, tomatoes, cucumbers, bell peppers, kalamata olives, & feta. It was plenty for us to share and the dressing was light and not overwhelming. They don't have a full bar. My friend tried two beers. One from Lebanon (Almaza) and another from Greece (Hillas). He liked them both. I had a glass of sparkling wine, which paired well with my meal. The background music was enjoyable and added to the ambience. I didn't realize it was coming from musicians who were playing out front. Ryan informed me that they perform Friday, Saturday, & Sunday evenings. Overall, it was a pleasant experience from beginning to end. I'm grateful for the recommendation and look forward to returning. *Street parking or lot in back.

While the chicken and beef looked aesthetically pleasing the texture was a little bit on the drier side for my taste. The rice was good. The salad looked sad and not appetizing, I didn't even eat it and I HATE wasting food. My pita bread came inside a "PITA DOUX" package; as if it was purchased from a store and left in the bag it was purchased from. I essentially paid $27 for 5 pieces of beef and 6 pieces of chicken and some rice :( I won't be coming here again.
