Great service appreciated everything very quick and friendly. Will be back! Everything tasted good

My first visit to Cava. I know that this location will be the one I plan to return too. Chris's friendly and helpful advice, helped me make great choices. When you are a first timer, his energetic, positive demeanor made my meal so enjoyable. I ordered the Falafel Crunch Bowl and the classic pita chips. The food was fresh and super tasty. Thanks to Chris, I know I will be returning. read more

I remember Cava being good? This time, it was anything but. I got a salad with various sauces, veggies and a mix of chicken and steak. None of the flavors really blended together in any enjoyable, coherent way. But, the real issue was the steak: it was so tough, overcooked and bereft of flavor that it made the equivalent beef at Chipotle seem like a flavor explosion. The guy making my stuff was pleasant enough but it's not like you'd hang out at this place and having anything but a sad lunch while you're on break from work. Boo. read more

This cava was very quick and tasty. great service! I would definitely come back again when I have the chance

really like this place! The food is healthy and appetizing. Today I tried the salmon yogurt bowl, and it was delicious--the combination of salmon, tomatoes, cucumber, hummus, feta, and arugula made for a perfect bite. I also tried their ginger soda, but it wasn't my favorite since it was a bit too spicy. As a bonus, I got to watch the staff arguing amongst themselves while I ate. Honestly, it made for great entertainment! read more

If we're anywhere with a CAVA it's definitely game on! We really enjoy the order as you go whether it's a bowl or a pita wrap. You start off by picking a variety of proteins (our go to is the steak or the harissa honey chicken or chicken shawarma), veggies, sauces and a wide array of add ons. We like to add romaine which is a little extra but won't break the bank. Be sure to get a side of pita chips too! The service at this location was good and ambiance is no frills with a good amount of seating. read more

The food is consistent. You get a healthy salad and the flavor is always spot on and it's quick. The service was okay they weren't as friendly as they usually are but still pleasant. They had areas for groups to sit and solo eaters. I appreciated the single solo seating. This allowed me to have a second to gather my thoughts, and enjoy my food without feeling rushed. read more

Cava is usually a safe bet for me, typically when I use the app my food is very well done and exactly what I need!! Recently, I found plastic in my food... I sent photos and submitted feedback to bring it to their attention, and I haven't heard anything in response... pretty disappointing. read more

CAVA - Plastic with a side of salad - Mediterranean Near Me - New York, New York

I live in Arizona and while there is a Cava in the Phoenix metropolitan area, it is by no means close to me. That being said I was very excited to try Cava while I was in NYC! The location was conveniently located, we had ultimately chose to use the order online function as parking is really non existent, literally my friend parked in the loading zone while I ran in and grabbed our food. I LOVED that the online order gave the exact time your order would be ready. This is super helpful for timing purposes!! The location is very bright welcoming and clean !!!! I chose the Steak bowl and it was DELICIOUS and definitely worth all of the hype! I cannot wait to dog into some of the other Cava bowls because I will definitely be stopping by a location as soon as I can. read more

Why don't we have Cava in the San Francisco Bay Area yet? It would kill. I almost always stop off at a Cava when I am traveling and see one. The food is delicious and the right portion size too so I don't feel like I am over eating. read more

CAVA a brand known to many as a great competition to Chipotle has failed at this location to impress customers. It's not just me who thinks that this specific location in general is serving half size portions for a whopping $15 price tag. I myself went today to have lunch here and go my surprise I was left half hungry but did not bother to complain about it to the staff. The staff are not happy with their work it seems except for the one who asks you at the initial stage for what items would you like. They throw in salad and lentils which I did not even ask for and threw/ passed it to the next employee. They did not even ask me what dressing I wanted and asked the person before me for my order dressing. That's pretty messed up. The quantity seems the outlet is trying to comprise on food supplies. I saw a lot of people during lunch time but it did not fulfill my appetite which is a normal person's bowl of food. After today's disappointing experience, I hardly think of returning back here as it feels like a rip off for half the quantity. They're in hurry and don't care about your order. read more

I'm disappointed in this place. Really, the meal is tasty. But I don't advise you to dine here or take a seat. to go, take it! because as I'm eating, gnats are buzzing over my head. literally as I type those sentences. Gnats are garbage, therefore I wouldn't sit down here and ruin my dinner. read more

I can't stop ordering the harissa avocado bowl. That is the leading choice for me on their menu and there's a reason it's one of their overall most popular dishes. Lovely medley of flavors. read more

We love Cava, and it's great to discover a location with more spacious seating. The food is excellent. However, at this particular establishment, the only two four-person booths were occupied by two employees on breaks, engaged in idle activities. One booth was occupied by an employee who was asleep, while the other was occupied by someone else who was likely an employee using the table for a loud video call. So no booths for customers. read more

Great customer service food was good, and the ambiance was great. Will come back soon ok n with family and friends

I love this cava, the workers are super friendly and Hilarious, and gave great recommendations

I'm shocked that I never went here before as I enjoy their meals plus it's near where I work. I've been here twice once and got a grain bowl and got a kids' meal. The kids' meal is quite large, and I barely finished it off. It comes with a drink, grain, pita, ingredients inside the pita like a protein and vegetables, side of carrots or pita chips. The grain bowl was pretty large as well. I can't really speak on the service as I only did pickup and didn't order inside. The lines do get fairly long during the weekdays as the work crowd goes there for lunch. The only thing I would write about is that the lemonade just tastes like pure lemon and nothing else. I don't suggest the lemonade at all. read more

good service and kind staff. Good portion sizes as well. close to my office And convenient

CAVA is always yummy and this location was no exception. However, the setting wasn't great. Their beverage machine was under maintenance so there was no way to get any water. They also didn't have the most seating at the time. They had a downstairs area but it was closed. The seats at the bar were pretty wobbly and it felt like I was going to fall off. Otherwise, my food was good. read more

I wanted to know what all the hype was about so I dropped by for a spice market bowl and some iced tea. The line was long but the service was fast with a casual eating area. The ingredients were very fresh and wholesome. This spice bowl was just that - Spicy! The lavender tea was a novelty to me as I've never thought of lavender that way. Although Cava's portion sizes are conservative, Cava appears to shine with it's fresh dips and sauces - yet another gastronomic adventure! read more

CAVA - spice market bowl, and a side of pita bread with a blueberry lavender tea - Mediterranean Near Me - New York, New York

Gonna keep this short and spicy. or very salty (just like the meal I ordered?) I don't really care for seating at places like this- it's a takeout place - if I'm hungry and want a quick meal this is the kind of place for it. Steak Mezze Salad (and I also requested to add the braised lamb) I didnt order beverages. JUST THAT. $27. Let that sink in. I would have been better off going to a restaurant by myself. Not to mention, the dressings, the meat - basically everything- drenched in salt. Never going back. read more

Cava is always very good but this location gave a lot less portions wise. Not sure if it is because of the corporate lunchtime busy period. Still a good casual spot, not a lot of seating though. read more

Service was great, Nicole was very kind and welcoming made sure everything was accurate with my order ! Thank you !

Not sure if it is only in the city or just at this location but Almost $15 for half bowl of chicken + rice, I feel I got ripped off,and I had to ask for more feta cheese, what? read more

Update: Cava responded to my complaint and issued me a $17.50 store credit which is what it cost monetarily for the salad but I was not compensated for the inconvenience and frustration of that evening's dinner. I had planned a nice evening with my husband to have CAVA and I was sadly left hungry and frustrated and CAVA thinks that a credit to spend back into their company for the same amount that I paid is satisfactory. Sorry CAVA but this is not satisfactory in my book... I think you can do better. The food is generally great but I was disappointed yesterday when I picked up my order (order #4569329225) and one of the salads was not complete. There was no roasted eggplant dip, RightRice, Harissa Honey Chicken. I got lentil but I didn't ask for lentils. That's about half my salad unfortunately I had picked it up and taken it home in NJ when I opened it and found my salad incomplete. I tried calling the store but no number to reach anyone. CAVA I believe you owe me a salad! read more

CAVA - Incomplete Salad - Mediterranean Near Me - New York, New York

Very inconsistent service - especially when I go in person, only half my bowl is filled and they roll their eyes when you ask for more toppings. I found the service to be horrendous and they try to get you to buy water - when they have a fountain for it which should be offered for free. I enjoy eating at cava but wont be going to this location because of the service. read more

CAVA - Greens + Grains bowl - half chicken/half falafel - Mediterranean Near Me - New York, New York

I knew this place would be good the second I walked in and there was almost a line out the door (luckily, I ordered online). I created my own bowl, which had basmati rice, romaine, corn, feta, tomato/cucumber salad, falafel, chicken, etc. I also got 3 dips in it, which made the bowl so good that I didn't even use my dressing. Such a good lunch spot, so I'll definitely be back. read more

Came at lunch time and was extremely pleased with how fast the line moves! Food was fresh and delicious! 10/10!

My husband and I had our lunch here. We got one bowl or rice with chicken for 2 of us and it was enough! The service was fast and average. The inside is simple and cozy. I really liked the food and the flavors. It's the perfect stop for quick and tasty lunch if you have the busy day. The restroom wasn't working so that's a downside. read more

Steak pita was good - fresh ingredients but I didn't like the tangier ingredients and the steak itself was dry, which I guess is the downside of grilling. Wasn't much of a service experience aside from the chipotle-style ordering system. Ambiance overall mid. Could use some "Hi, welcome to Cava" and some Greek music. read more

One of the better Chipotle-style mediterranean spots in the area. The falafel and veggies are very fresh and you can get a long of bang for your buck with all the toppings. If you don't mind long lines during lunch hour, I'd highly recommend if you're in the mood for some Mediterranean grub. This location has a decent size indoor seating in the basement if you choose to do so - especially since the barstool seating is unusable right now due to COVID. read more

Luis was great! He ensured our experience and service exceptional. All of the staff equally helped in a quality dining.

I like the Cava salad, fresh and tasty. Constructive feedback: 1) control the sodium. The add on are salty, olive, cheese, pickles, the dressing, humus and sour cream. Need to consider the whole bowl! Maybe offer a low sodium option for the health conscious. 2) the chicken is a bit burned, a little too much! read more

This is place is delicious! I chose the make your own bowl with 1/2 greens and 1/2 grains and with veggies as my protein- it was so delicious. They give you huge portions, but even with that you don't feel over stuffed because everything is so healthy and clean. I honestly don't remember which sauces I picked but I remember getting some tahini which really hit the spot. This place is great if you're looking for a big meal and want a healthier alternative to your regular Chipotle, but also something more interesting than your typical salad! Location is perfect if you want to have a nice meal or picnic at Bryant Park. read more

ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS PLACE. Healthy food options that are delicious and really good portions. Vegan options are also available as well!

When ordering, I asked for 2 greens and grain bowls. They gave me one bowl filled with just greens. When I corrected the lady making my bowl, she sighed exaggeratedly and threw away the bowl. After getting the correct greens she skipped the rice entirely and we had to ask her to get some rice with our bowls. She sighed again and begrudgingly scooped a spoon of rice. I ordered at 5:30 on a Sunday afternoon and the store was not busy at all. The other employees were friendly and nice but that first lady ruined the whole experience. read more

Disaster zone. Ordered ahead to try to and skip the corporate lunch rush... ended up waiting 30 minutes for a bowl that was half empty and had to go back for something they forgot. The organization and setup is horrendous - they hoard all of the completed orders in the back and people crowd around the kitchen to get their food, I should've taken a photo of how many people were waiting. They are overwhelmed and can only find one order at a time. I know they are super busy but other places in the area have figured out how to manage it. People are visibly agitated and frustrated, it's terrible. read more

Not great service for the price. The food is tasty for sure, but they forgot half of my ingredients, so I was not pleased.

Riding my bike from Bronx to Brooklyn, this was the perfect stop. Great customer service and great food, can never go wrong with Cava!

First off I was told no photos, but do I listen? NO! since I was here already I had the grilled chicken with basmati rice, cabbage slaw, crumbled feta, cabbage, tomato and onion, pickled onions, diced cucumber, olives, white beans, and lots of tzatziki dip and Harissa yogurt. since they let me lay it on for like less than $12. It's good for the money but I didn't like what I put together, this is my first time in Cava and didn't know what was anything taste like. I plus I was already grumpy being told I can't take photos. read more
