Loved that there was actual spice when I asked for spicy sauces/items. So often it's not the case. The meal was filling but not too heavy either and all the things we ordered felt very fresh. The flavors were such a welcome change from day to day flavors. We ordered the chicken and rice as a bowl and then the spicy chicken as a pita. Also their selection of teas is wonderful! read more

CAVA - Chicken + Rice bowl and the Spicy Chicken + Avocado. So GOOD! - Salad Near Me - Mount Pleasant, South Carolina

I've been coming to this CAVA location for about five years, and I've generally had good experiences, which is why this review is disappointing to write. The last two times I've ordered pita chips and hummus through the app, the online ordering process felt completely pointless. Both times, my order was marked with an estimated pickup time, but it wasn't actually ready until more than 10 minutes after that. While I was waiting, I watched employees serve 15+ people who came through the regular line after I had already placed and paid for my order. I even saw pita chips being given to customers in line while I was still waiting for the chips I had ordered earlier. It just doesn't seem like online orders are being prioritized or managed efficiently. On top of that, both orders of pita chips were so heavily seasoned and salty that I couldn't finish them. I've had the pita chips here many times over the years and never had this issue before, but the last two visits have been consistent enough that it feels worth mentioning. As a college student, eating out is something I have to budget for and is a treat I look forward to. When the food isn't edible because it's overly salty and the pickup process takes significantly longer than expected, it feels like a waste of money. I know everyone has off days, and I've had plenty of positive experiences at this location in the past. However, because this has happened twice in a row, I'll definitely be more hesitant about ordering here in the future. read more

We've come here multiple times and... + Food tastes good generally, it's clear they put effort into sourcing quality ingredients - Our mobile orders have unfortunately been very inconsistently fulfilled. Half of the time they get my girlfriend's bowl completely wrong, missing ingredients, wrong ingredients. - Today we placed a mobile order at 7:00pm, and didn't recieve our bowl until 7:50pm. The employee also did not say a word as they handed it off - no 'thank you,' no 'sorry about the wait.' I work in food and bev, I understand that sometimes you are understaffed and all you can do is try your best. This store was not understaffed when we visited and there is clearly very little effort being put into customer service. read more

This place just gets worse every time we visit. Why do we keep coming back?? Because the food tastes good....im not gonna lie. However, the staff is more rude every time, the restaurant is dirtier every time, the line is slower every time, and the prices seem to increase every time! I guess I'm the sucker...but it is disappointing nonetheless, and frustrating, which is why I give this Cava 1 star. read more

First time trying CAVA. I went with a build your own bowl. There were lots of options available. I definitely felt like I got a lot of food but it was just okay for me. We had to clean off the table we sat at because there was food on it and on the benches. My daughter had to use the bathroom and it was clean. read more

CAVA - Chicken Shawarma - Salad Near Me - Mount Pleasant, South Carolina

My review is based on two separate visits from CAVA. My first visit was on January 18, 2025, within the last hour of closing. While waiting for my order, I saw one associate cleaning the restroom. CAVA is clean. Therefore, I assumed the food was less than par because the team was breaking down the storage of the service area. On the second visit, I decided to use Cava's App. I told the first person I had placed the order online but wanted to add it. The server promptly gestured that I went to the register and that the cashier would add it to my order. I ordered through the app at 6:05 p.m., and the pickup time was 6:45 p.m. I walked back in at 6:23 p.m. and waited in line, only for the server to avoid me and ask the lady behind me," How may I help you?" Baby, I ripped out my phone and started working on my review. Once the manager realized I was Typing feverishly on my cell phone, she asked if she could help me. I said, "Sure, YELP wants to know if you have Free Wi-Fi." The manager answered my question and quickly walked into the back. Cava has three stars, and I only tried them because my new colleagues spoke so highly about the food and the lavender drink. Side note: The lavender drink is delicious! read more

Girls' shopping day and we are HUNGRY! We tried CAVA Mediterranean restaurant in Mt Pleasant. This is like a Chipotle restaurant, but with a Greek menu. There is spacious indoor and outdoor seating available. There is plenty of parking in the shopping center where CAVA is located. I ordered the chicken and rice bowl. It was made with fresh arugula, brown rice, feta cheese, pickled onions, cucumbers, hummus, Greek dressing, and crispy pita. It was so fresh and absolutely amazing and healthy. You can choose your meats and fixing and dress in a bowl or pita sandwich. I had the bowl. There are CAVA specialty bowls, or you can build your own. They offer sparkling water, sweet tea, and various fruit juices. There was a line that took about 20 mins to get through to order, but it was Friday night. You order at the counter and wait, then pay and find a seat. The clerks at the counter were friendly. The only reason I didn't give them 5 stars was because I ordered a CAVA specialty bowl, and they didn't have the recipe, so no one knew how to make it. Price was reasonable with similar restaurants. I will be back for some more CAVA! read more

I'll admit the first time I tried cava, I was unimpressed but my second time was much better. I really enjoyed it and found it reasonably priced my favorite part was the extra chips. I found the servers very friendly and helpful and there is a ton of seating in the restaurant. It is reasonably priced and very fresh. I'd advise not going during a busy hour, if you've never been there. read more

So good! I built my own bowl with saffron rice, half veggies/chicken, pickled onions (favorite part!) feta cheese, and avocado. The chicken was so tender and juicy and just really good. The veggies were a nice combo of Brussels sprouts and carrots I believe. Also ordered the pita chips, amazing! They were buttery, crispy and perfectly salted. The strawberry citrus drink was nice and refreshing. Carolyn was killing it while she was by herself at the time. So kind and helpful. I didn't feel rushed when I was ordering even when it was busy. Nice place to sit for lunch, especially on the patio if it's a nice day. Plenty of seating inside. read more

If I could eat Cava every day I would. Sadly they don't have one near where I live. I came to South Carolina to visit a friend and drove all the way to this Cava so I could delight in my favorite concoction a bowl with 1/2 greens 1/2 rice, chicken, my favorite veggies smothered in shug AND garlic sauce. The spiced shredded broccoli mix is new to me and super yummy. I cannot express how happy it made me to eat something bursting with flavor while being super healthy for me. Both my tastebuds and my tummy enjoyed every bite. I cannot understand why this location doesn't have a line out the door. read more

This was my first experience at Cava. I have been wanting to try this place for a long time as Zoe's was one of my favorite lunch spots. Now that I have been I wish I would have tried it sooner! I had the Greek bowl and added avocado and crazy feta to it. I did an online order and pickup was a breeze. Orders are placed on a shelf so you can bypass the line. My order was ready on time and it was delicious. I am excited to try the many other options and try building my own bowl next time. Great place! read more

I had higher hopes for this place for all the rave it gets... my falafel and lamb meatballs were pretty dry and I should have gotten the salad dressing on the side because the salad was drenched in it. The bathrooms looked like they hadn't been cleaned for days. read more

Loved my refreshing blueberry lemonade and meal here at CAVA. You pick your sides, base, and toppings kinda similar to a chipotle or moes style. The line was lengthy but moved steadily.

CAVA - Chicken bowl with spinach and lentils - Salad Near Me - Mount Pleasant, South Carolina

After being scoffed at by a family member when I told them I hadn't yet had my first Cava bowl, I ventured out to see what all the hype was about. I got to the restaurant shortly after it opened. I was joined by maybe one other customer and my experience felt very rushed. The person making my bowl hurriedly asked what I wanted next as I picked out the toppings and the sauces. I've had better and less rushed experiences at Chipotle. But my food was quite good for the amount I paid. Overall it was a decent experience but could definitely have done without the rushed tone. read more

This is a super yum fast casual spot tucked into the Towne Center shopping area. We were picking up Christmas gifts and came across it, so glad we did. The design is Chipotle-esque in that you wander through a line first selecting and customizing your delicious Mediterranean bowl or pita wrap. The toppings to choose from seem endless and are so fresh and reasonably priced. We sat outside on their patio as it was a perfectly sunny day. The selected music rounded out a wonderful experience. Definitely check it out! read more

Food was great, but not a single sense of urgency from this staff. Couldn't be slower, and lots of tables were dirty. This seems to be a very common theme at this location read more

A+ food but D- customer service. Zero efficiency in their food lines and zero personality from their workers. Waited 45 mins in a 5 person line because they were only concerned about the to go/online orders. read more

Workers are cool asf. she gave us a free meal and even tho they were closing they offer us free tickles. Loved the place and workers. Also really clean place and good ambience read more

Just picked up our order. TERRIBLE!!!! 0 for 2 Neither bowl was remotely close to what we ordered!!' Called to get a refund but there is no number for the store and no person at corporate. Makes it impossible to file a direct complain Maybe this is the reason for no number. I used to love them but never again!! read more

I was thrilled that CAVA chose to expand to the Mount Pleasant Towne Centre. It's a perfect spot for a quick lunch or dinner. Take-out, dine in, or outside in the patio, everyone will be covered. I met a friend for an early lunch before the crowd. Step up to the counter to Build a Bowl (or wrap) was the order of the day. I started with a base of supergreens and right rice. I picked three toppings, a protein (they did not have the lamb meatballs) and many toppings. I'm deliberately not revealing 'my' bowl as you will do it your way. I will tell you that everything was fresh and inviting. The melon scooper size of the toppings was actually plenty. A soft, chewy, delicious wedge of fresh pita came with the order. There are a decent number of fountain beverages to choose among. My friend and I sat in a quiet side area away from the line and main dining area. It was perfect ... no noise, no sense of being rushed. My bowl plus a can of water was $13.00 and change ... a fair price. I'll be back real soon for those lamb meatballs and Diet Mexican Coke! Check it out ... you'll be so satisfied! read more

Ordered food on 8/3/2024 at 9:38PM This place is GROSS! I asked to talk to the manager. He/she was not available. Absolutely gross looking place. So dirty i just lost my apatite. I asked why there was trash everywhere the girl working just shrug her shoulders and said "there used go be a trash can there" - but since there was no trash can they just threw trash on the floor. Not going back to this place! read more

Good food! Similar to the location in Charlotte but you have to pay for pita chips ( definitely didn't realize this so bummer about that ) . Service was friendly and the cashier went the extra mile for me to get my dill dressing ! Otherwise the food proportions were small for $12 per bowl. Decor is similar to other Cavas but this one is a little smaller . Will return when in the area read more

Regardless of whether you order ahead or not, be prepared to wait up to an hour for your food. I understand when there are rushes and places get busy/are understaffed but wow. The wait at this place is absolutely absurd and nobody seems to be in any sort of rush to speed things up. This is the third time I have come to this location and waited over 30 minutes which seems excessive for putting ingredients into a bowl. I ordered ahead online and proceeded to watch everyone else that had come in after me get their food and was ignored for the entire hour I stood there. One of the employees making the bowls asked various people around me what they were waiting for but did not seem to want to ask me. This place is NOT WORTH THE TIME. read more

The guy fixing the Subway style make your own bowl was at the least disinterested, unhelpful and seemed perturbed if I asked questions or heaven forbid, made the wrong choice. The chicken is overly salty. Won't be back, read more

First time visiting Cava and I was pleasantly surprised. It's lovely here and busy at lunchtime. They have a wide selection of healthy food options to choose from, including making your own bowl or selecting one already prepared. It's so nice to have this here in Mt. Pleasant. I love healthy eating out options. It's quick, healthy, delicious and affordable. What nite could you want. The staff were super helpful and courteous. I noted that they do not have any tip jars.. I asked and they told me that they are not allowed by the company. Plenty of parking and dress to eat outside when the weather is better. I'll definitely be returning. read more

Delicious, super quick, good service, well staffed, healthy! I love stopping by CAVA for a quick or casual bite. You can get a ton of healthy food for $11 and it tastes so good. I highly recommend treating yourself with a side of pita chips because they SLAP. This location has indoor and outdoor seating. All the staff followed instructions well and each of them said enjoy or have a nice day before passing my bowl to the next staff member! Overall, I think CAVA is the best healthy, casual, quick dining option in mt pleasant! I do wish they'd bring back the Greek yogurt sriracha sauce though :-( read more

CAVA is my new obsession. I like to do a build your own bowl, and do a combo of rice, lentils, and greens. The braised lamb is well worth the up charge. I love all of the topping options, including the crazy feta, pickled onions, kalamata olives, and cucumber salad. Everything tastes so fresh. For $15 a plate this is a great value and can usually get two meals out of it. Don't sleep on the lemonades - the apple, mint one is phenomenal. Very pleasant and quick customer service as well. read more
