Have ordered takeout from Cava several times and I love all the toppings that I can choose from. One of my go-to fast casual Mediterranean restaurants to order from. Fast pickup, never been disappointed.

Cucumber mint drink that's very refreshing and not too sweet

The service here is friendly and fast. My go to is the chicken greens and grain bowl and toppings are unlimited. I usually go for the olives corn tomatoes pickles onions and the cilantro dressing and pita crisps. Sometimes they forget to give the pita bread, just kindly remind them. It's about $13. I love the cucumber mint drink they have here. There's seatings and in the back they have a clean bathroom.

Let's see.. I've dined at CAVA in Washington, D.C., Chicago, NYC ( Bryant Park, Flatiron, Soho). Why you ask? Because if you want really good Mediterranean food in a casual setting then CAVA is it. CAVA provides well executed salads, grains and bowls. Additionally, their menu offers a good variety of options: falafel, chicken, lamb, harissa chicken, meatballs. You can pick your base with either saffron rice, greens or pita. There are numerous toppings from cabbage slaw, fire roasted corn, Persian cucumbers, tomatoes, pickled onions, toasted pita chips.,. Are you hungry yet? My colleague and I stopped in the Cleveland Place location and ordered lunch to go. I love their falafel and decided to order it, but not in a pita, instead opted for spinach as my base and all the fixings. I did not buy a drink although they do offer Spindrift cans ( sparkling or seltzer). The ordering process is smooth, staff is friendly and the establishment is spacious. The pricing isn't hefty for a meal, my bowl cost @$14 but it is IMO two meals in one; very hearty portion. Thus if you want a taste of the Mediterranean, CAVA is a good destination.

chicken bowl

Got the hot honey chicken bowl w tzatziki, hummus, red pepper hummus, and balsamic sauce. it was so good, and i hate leaving low reviews but the employees were so rude it was also really shockingly dirty so i'm not sure i would return to this location

I like eating here when looking for something a little healthier! Flavors are savory and good. Staff is friendly. There's never a line. As I live in the neighborhood, it's become a regular spot for me.

$13+ Bowl- arugula, baby spinach,  3 scoops of sauce,  chicken & 1 falafel,   toppings,  dressings: yogurt dill & garlic.

As a diabetic, Cava is one of the few places I can eat my heart out when ordering (no lentils/rice or falafel though - or sugar spikes up). How does it compare to Chipotle? I spend about $12 (no drink) at Chipotle and there's less variety while at Cava it's about $13+ (no drink) with a lot more variety and choices and the Cava amount is definitely more. Why the 4 stars? Well, they asked me for a review and they were all extremely nice for this one day. Usually it's a bit ho-hum and a few times I did get barked at. I frequent this Cava maybe once every two weeks to once a week so I use the Cava app for rewards.

Greens + Grain Bowl

Monkey Bar - Smoked Whitefish Caesar (~$28)

Getting a reservation here is very hard. One just popped up in my Resy app for lunch though, so I…read morewent for it. It was my first time here although, it has been around for ages. The front part where you first walk in is the bar area with some tables. This restaurant is on the darker side and brings you back in time. Once you walk in further that is where the main dinning room is. This is also on the darker side as you can maybe tell by my photos. The wall paper and art around the restaurant is cool and there are some monkey statues around the restaurant. I was seated in a corner table in a booth area that seemed to be for at least 2-3 people. I thought for sure they would seat me at the bar area. I had a wonderful waitress whose name I think was Taylor but I could be wrong. I ordered the Monkey bread to start off with. It's a very buttery bread with truffle and parm cheese on top. I have alot of allergies and I was searching online if I could even have truffles as I have a nut allergy. So, I asked the waitress and she said she had never heard this. But, she came back to me and told me that White truffle grows near or like over where Almonds grow from but that, they don't use white truffle so I was all good. Well, this was super nice of her to check for me. I had no idea she was going to do this. She said the restaurant has strict protocols when it comes to food allergies. I then got for my main dish the double cheese burger with onions and pickles. To drink I had the cucumber martini. WOW everything was pretty darn good!! I passed on dessert. If you get a chance or a reservation pops up in your resy to go, even if it is for lunch..I highly say go for it.

From the moment we sat down, the service set the tone for the entire experience. Our server was…read moreincredibly warm, upbeat, and full of energy--one of those people who genuinely elevates a meal. I only wish I could remember her name because she deserves the recognition. We started with drinks, and mine ended up being a surprise standout. I ordered the coconut margarita, slightly hesitant since I'm not usually a margarita fan--but it completely won me over. It struck a perfect balance and leaned just enough into the coconut to make it feel unique without being overpowering. My sister-in-law, who's pregnant, had a non-alcoholic Ritual margarita and loved it, noting how convincingly it mimicked the real thing. Since we were sharing, we got to try a good mix of the menu. The monkey bread came first--definitely a splurge at $34, but it's one of those fun, indulgent starters that's worth ordering at least once. While I wouldn't call it the best bread I've ever had, I also wouldn't change anything about it. The crab rangoon was another highlight. Having it made with real crab made a noticeable difference, and the dipping sauces complemented it really well. It felt like a more elevated take on something familiar. For mains, the French dip was a hit. The meat was incredibly tender, the bread had that ideal crusty exterior, and the au jus was packed with flavor--I was very glad I ordered extra. It pulled the whole dish together. We also tried the smoked whitefish Caesar, which was the only dish that didn't quite land for me. It was a well-made, fresh salad, but the smoked fish flavor was a bit overpowering and took over the balance of the dish. Even though we were too full for dessert, the restaurant surprised us with a scoop of strawberry ice cream with chocolate sauce to celebrate my sister-in-law's babymoon. It ended up being one of the most memorable bites of the meal--we're still talking about how good that ice cream was. We arrived right at 11:45, and by the time we left, the place was absolutely buzzing. It's clearly a popular spot, and for good reason. Between the lively atmosphere, strong service, and well-executed food, I'd highly recommend making a reservation if you can.

I always passed by here and liked the trendy, bright beach interiors. The food is delish - simple healthy classics with lots of fresh ingredients and delicious flavors! I ordered the fire egg wrap and couldn't have the spicy sauce so the server, Bryan, brought 2 other sauces (pura vida and Caesar) for me to enjoy. The pure vida sauce was a herby green with mustard that was so good. There's lots of seating space with clean bathrooms and polite and prompt service throughout. I thoroughly enjoyed my food and time here.

Lots of delivery orders are being done. Customer service is good here as a few people came up to ask if I needed anything extra. The first bite of the raspberry croissant was a little hard but now it's fine. The raspberries are oozing flavor and the pastry cream inside is also tasty. I could eat another.

One of the best quality takeouts I've ever had - so good I got it twice in one day! The chicken is…read morejust WOW and I am SO picky about chicken...perfectly cooked - crispy but still tender - deliciously seasoned throughout, not just on top. I got the spicy and it is low spice level - packed full of flavour, spaghetti squash is tomatoey and delicious, all the veggies I had were perfectly cooked and seasoned - I also tried the cauliflower and broccoli (not pictured) which were great. This is one of the few truly healthy takeout options that isn't packed full of salt sugar and additives - it tastes fresh, delicious and light. Though the portion looks quite small, it is actually very satisfying (and I can eat a lot) They get super busy (good for them as a small business!) so be aware of this when ordering at peak times in terms of wait time - my only complaint is, it is pricy - the steak in particular is quite a significant add-on. That being said, I paid for it twice in one day, so it is clearly worth it, but if I wasn't visiting - and this was a regular go-to - I would like to see prices a little more competitive. Please open in LA!!!

Quick and very efficient. Prides itself on (with…read morejustification) about the small number of ingredients, that the only oil used is olive oil and the simplicity.
