I love Cava! I always have a great experience at this location. Young staff and they are always helpful.

We had family from out of state visiting, and they were telling us about having Cava while visiting New York. We told them there was a location close to us, but we hadn't tried them yet. I did do a lot of the training and now hiring material for them, but haven't had a chance to give them a try. We ordered takeout, and I must say that we were skeptical after reading reviews, but they absolutely exceeded our expectations. We ordered 2 build your own Pitas, and a build your own bowl. Everything was super fresh, steak was on point, harissa chicken was perfect, all the items we added to the bowl and pitas were amazing, and the sour cream and onion pita chips with the roasted eggplant dip were delicious. We got a few unique drinks, blueberry lavender and cucumber lime mint, and they were great as well. A tad expensive, but the portions were large and we found it to be worth the price. read more

First off this restaurant was so dirty! The floors were sticky like they haven't been mopped In a long time or ever! The tables were dirty, the trash was very full, no napkins, no ice! I got this Strawberry steak salad! The steak was very chewy and rubbery. Not good quality of steak for sure! The young lady who worked there that took our order yesterday (Saturday 6pm 9/12/26) you can tell hates her job and she was very rude and impatient with us when it was our first time eating there. The food was just nothing special reminds me of chiplote which is crappy food! We won't be back! It was so disgusting! I couldn't even eat it! Felt like I was chewing on rubber! The only thing that is strawberry is the dressing! Actual strawberries would be great addition to this so called strawberry steak salad. Considering how expensive it is for the horrible quality of food $35.00 for two is ridculious! read more

Great place if you're looking for a vegan options to eat. I like the assembly line style of ordering Mediterranean style food. Our servers were pretty friendly and helpful when asked about menu options. I had a build your own bowl and it was as I expected it would be (good but not out of this world to say). Also the place was pretty clean and had a good atmosphere. I would definitely consider coming back here if I'm in this part of town. read more

Simply put, CAVA is not a bad place. But it's also nothing special. This is yet another franchise trying to emulate the early success of Chipotle, but with a Mediterranean spin on it (and there are plenty of those kind of places nowadays). They have good food made with quality ingredients and refreshing beverages, but like other places similar to them they are overpriced and don't really do alot to stand out outside of limited time promotions like the bowl I got on this trip. The dining area was clean and the staff did a great job thankfully. My salmon with strawberry sesame dressing was delicious, but not sure that the overall experience was enough to warrant anything more than an occasional visit in the future. read more

At this point I'm not sure if this Cava is worth the trip. The restaurant is really large and accommodates lots of people in a long line, which is great because it seems to always be long. I guess the other patrons are like me and go wishing Cava has what they desire. I read several reviews on other platforms of patrons stating that either their food was mediocre or the restaurant was out of ingredients they ordered. Same as for me on this day. I specifically visited for the garlic chicken bowl, they were out of the garlic and the chicken. I chose substitute items but mentioned to the cashier that my meal was not what I came there for due to the substitutes. As I took out my wallet to pay, she informed me that I could have the bowl for free which was appreciated. Although it wasn't what I wanted to eat, it wasn't bad. The food was fresh, but the portions seems skimpy. If I visit again I will make sure that all of the ingredients that I desire are available before ordering. read more

Pleasantly surprised! Everything was sooo delicious! Loved that we can build our own bowls. I will definitely be back! read more

CAVA - Shredded lamb/chicken, rice, eggplant side, roasted for broccoli, sumac slaw - Mediterranean Near Me - Canton, Michigan

Tip: On busy nights/weekends, just walk in and go through the line. Only drive through or order ahead during off hours. This reminds me of when Starbucks went full custom drink order crazy, opened drive through, and order ahead all at once. It's the exact same logistics bottleneck at CAVA. You're waiting for at least 20 to 30 minutes after your expected pickup time in either the drive through or in-store pickup while the walk through line is moving smoothly. The issue is that the small station creates a large bottleneck serving both the drive through and order ahead pickup at once. On to the food. It's delicious! Great ingredients, flavor, and spice. I really enjoyed the spicy lamb and avocado bowl. I'd definitely come back...when it's not busy. read more

CAVA - Spicy Lamb and Avocado - Mediterranean Near Me - Canton, Michigan

I stopped by Cava for a pickup order and overall, I had a really good experience! I ordered the "build your own bowl" so if anything doesn't hit the mark, it'll be my own fault. I'll admit, I'm normally a pretty plain eater and don't usually pile on sauces. For my bowl, I went with saffron rice, chicken shawarma, corn, broccoli, hummus, and feta dip. The portion of chicken was generous, and everything tasted fresh and flavorful. My total came out to $13.78, which felt very reasonable for the quality and portion size. Next time, I'd definitely load up more on the hummus, it was good, but I don't think they gave me enough! My order was ready quickly for pickup, which was super convenient. Overall, it's nothing I'd write home about, but I did enjoy it and would definitely come back. read more

CAVA - Mediterranean Near Me - Canton, Michigan

I was really really excited to see that there is a CAVA in Michigan now since it was one of my favorite "bowl" places in NYC for a reasonably priced, reasonably healthy, reasonably filling lunch. I went with my typical order today (greens + grains bowl with pretty much every single veggie topping and chicken) and it was around $14 on DoorDash although I'm sure the prices were likely inflated vs in-store. It was fine? Maybe I was blowing it up in my memory ahead of time but I was pretty underwhelmed. The bowl was a decent size but very light on the chicken and the chicken also wasn't as good as I've been used to with Cava before. Probably wouldn't order again but nice to have in the area. read more

CAVA - Greens and grains bowl - Mediterranean Near Me - Canton, Michigan

At first, when seeing the poor reviews for this Cava, I was shocked. Being so excited there's finally one outside of the DMV, I expected the same level of awesome. Well, now I understand why this location is giving Cava a bad name. Things that need improvement: - cleanliness. Tables, floors were quite dirty, at about 5 pm on a weekday. No excuses, there was far too many staff members behind the counter, looking useless. - product availability. Half of the house made lemonades/drinks were completely empty, and several of the toppings for the bowls were also out. Again, this is 5 pm on a weekday, with no line, there was time to prep more veggies. - food. Chicken temp was cool, and bowl could have been more full. It's hard to break into the metro Detroit area with Mediterranean food - we are very spoiled with suburb cuisine in that department. If they make improvements, this Cava location can shine like the others I have frequented. I hope metro Detroiters give them a chance! read more

CAVA - Get the cookies, you won't regret it! - Mediterranean Near Me - Canton, Michigan

IDK if I just lucked out with the time of day compared to everyone else but I stopped by last week for a late lunch pick up and it was great! It was my first time trying Cava so I downloaded the app to familiarize myself with the menu and placed an order in the parking lot for drive thru pick up for myself and my mom. I had to wait for a bit since I ordered there but I was able to catch up some emails! Pick up at the drive thru was easy at that point, though. I got the garlicy chicken shawarma bowl minus firey broccoli and skhug plus persian cucumbers and feta. It was really good! I also added the cinnamon sugar pita which was reminded me of the elephant ears I used to get at the carnival as a kid. Yum! My mom also really liked her chicken and rice bowl. And for the portion size it was really affordable. Less than $25 for both of us which isn't much more than a trip to McDonald's these days but somewhat healthier. Because I preordered and pick up was so quick I had very little interaction with the staff so I can't speak to any issues there but the food we had was great and we'd definitely visit them again. read more

Went to CAVA last night for dinner. Never been here before so wasn't sure what to expect. The two girls working the line were friendly and helped answer questions as to what things were etc. we got two BYO bowls and two orders of pita chips which was roughly $32. The girl working the register name Juju was extremely rude. We had to wait for the pita chips as there were none prepared which was totally fine, but standing near the counter waiting I witnessed her continue to be rude to every customer who came through the line. Any question someone asked her she would roll her eyes and give the snarkiest answer. I could visible see other guests also shocked at her responses and demeanor. Once the pita chips were done she walks over with one pack and hands it to me. I politely said we ordered two. She said "two of what???" I said two order of pita chips, to which she turned around, grabbed another pack and handed it to me without saying a word. Over all the food was good, the girls on the line were nice which is why I left the 3 stars but this person really left a bad taste in my mouth for this location. read more

The only reason this isn't a five star review is because for some reason, they kept the pita chips near the kitchen causing the line to back up and a couple of us had to as for forks because there were none in the dining room. Other than that, the service was decent for a fast-casual restaurant. The food was solid. Got a customized chicken bowl. Being my first visit, I didn't know what to expect. I thoroughly enjoyed it though. I will definitely return. The second one in Michigan just opened. I hope there will be more to come. read more

My first time visiting and the meal definitely hit after a morning workout. Hit my macros and everything was fresh and delicious! Shoutout to Darius and the crew this early afternoon. read more

Went here opening week. So the wait was super long but line moved fairly quickly for the amount of people Food was ok. Got the lamb and rice bowl which tasted alright but on the bland side. Overall probably will visit once the rush dies down a bit. read more

Finally had the chance to try CAVA, only mistake I made was going during the opening week. The Line was huge and it took us an exact hour to get our food. Portions are huge and the food is delicious. Service was great and the crew was very friendly. Only disappointment was the pita chips had way too much salt on them. Loud but great place to enjoy a meal . read more

CAVA - Mediterranean Near Me - Canton, Michigan

We came on a Sunday night at 7:30pm, waited in line for over an hour before we finally got to the front. As we stood in line, I watched how poorly executed the assembly line is. There are 4 stages to ordering: 1) Two employees start the bowl/plate with rice/greens/beans 2) Two-three employees handle meats 3) One employee does all of the toppings/sauces (note the most choices a customer can make) 4) One employee handles check out. The bottleneck of this operation is Stage 3 where only one employee is handling all the toppings/sauces which is the most time consuming stage. The orders were backed up to 8 customers for that stage. There is absolutely no need to have two employees on the first two stages. Another issue causing long wait times is that employees on the assembly line were tasked with refilling their own ingredients, meanwhile since this is an open kitchen--I saw a lot of idling amongst the kitchen staff... these employees should have actively been refilling ingredients for the assembly line so that those workers could keep the line moving. I observed the manager yelling at kitchen staff and yelling at customers -- for what I couldn't hear. The employees never smiled. The self-serve lemonades were empty, tables dirty, and by the time we made it to the front to order, they were out of salad greens. At that point, I was so hungry and upset I walked out without ordering. How does a restaurant run out of a key ingredient needed for most of their menu? Corporate needs to send a team here ASAP - at the bare minimum the manager needs replaced with someone with a business background/degree and some customer experience. I've been to other CAVA locations, and this was such a disappointment. It is alarming that this location has been open for several weeks now and still cannot seem to work through these issues based on other recent reviews. read more

Finally, the first Cava in MI! It was absolutely packed, the staff worked hard to get the line moving. The interior was clean there's lots of seating and bathrooms available. There's pickup/order ahead options available. I did a Build Your Own Bowl, so good. The food and drinks are fantastic, I've always loved how fresh their falafel is. The flavor in CAVA food is unbeatable. Can't recommend enough! read more

I've only ever had CAVA in Chicago, so it was nice to see one in Michigan. It looks like this is where the Boston Market was located prior. I've only really ordered the same item but wanted mix it up and go with the Falafel Crunch bowl. Now Im 50/50 on it as I didn't hate it but I also didn't love it, but it was good enough for me to finish as I was incredibly hungry. I opted out of a drink as I had my water in my car but I usually go for a lemonade. The service was decent but it's the same as I would expect at like a chipotle where the staff seem like they really want to keep the line moving and I don't blame them. I know there is another location in Detroit so I'm curious how my experience would go there but I'll check it out. read more

CAVA - Mediterranean Near Me - Canton, Michigan

This was SUCH a bad experience. I did digital drive thru and ordered around 8pm. Soonest pick up was 9pm. I arrived at the store at 8:55 and sat in the digital drive thru pick up line for 35 min. When I got my food it was cold, maybe it should be, but the falafel was horrible, actually the worst I have ever tasted. Cold rice? No thanks. The hot mess of a bowl didn't look anything like advertised. There was so little rice, and the falafel was so small I could not find either. My daughter's chicken was also cold in her pita. Just a bad, bad experience. Maybe they are still working out the kinks, but I paid way too much for this mess. read more

CAVA - Mediterranean Near Me - Canton, Michigan

We tried to order online and for delivery and both were unavailable for over an hour of checking. As I got back into town, decided to just go in person to get the food. Food was good. Service was horrible. It was my first time ordering in person and I was ordering for another person as well. I had the other person's specific order on my phone and was reading the ingredients requested as we went along. The employee kept asking to see my phone and still MISSED ingredients in the bowl I ordered as she rushed me along to move through the line. The other employee in the next step of the process was no better. I said I wanted a large pita and he gave me little pita pieces, then said, "oh, did you want a rolled pita?". I didn't know the exact wording but he could have figured out it was the rolled one when I said "large". Probably won't go back in person again. I have had food from CAVA in several states and love it. May try to order online again. If they want to stay in business in Canton, they need better service. read more

idk what is going on here but they don't seem to be training the staff . My food was floating in somekind of sauce I could even really eat. Was gross read more

I don't think I'm being too picky with the complaint that a chicken shawarma bowl should have chicken in it. I tried calling and no answer. We shall see how they correct their mistake. Things are too expensive to let it slide. Bowl is also missing garlic that is a key ingredient and it looks as if they just opened an avocado and tossed it in there. Maybe the rice is supposed to be cold? If so, weird. I'm surprised this place is that popular. I will definitely not be going out of my way to visit again read more

This is my first experience at Cava and my last. My experience was disappointing. After ordering the build your bowl and didn't find out the steak is premium which no where on the menu indicated. The girl at the beginning of the line was counting how many arugula leaves in my bowl and as I was pointing to the meat I wanted she told me to put my hand down which maybe that is probably why she didn't tell me the meat I selected was premium because she was too worried about my hand. After everything at $16 later, it's just an average tasting bowls. Don't waste your money. read more

This location has been open for several weeks now and you still have to order your food at least 2 hours ahead of time for pick up. I started ordering pick up because I don't want to wait inside the restaurant for over an hour every time I want to eat there. I really enjoyed the food my first visit, but the last few times I've ordered it's been just ok. I ordered a Harissa Avocado Bowl today, I get home and there's not even any avocado in my bowl at all. If they don't get it together soon, they will be losing a lot of business. read more

Update 8/28/25 After a month and tons of calls i finally got my refund for my order i never received... Tried again. Awful. Ordered lamb meatballs and got chicken. Never again. Stay away. read more

A very disappointing first experience. I have been to CAVA in other states and this was just not the same, I guess that's what I get for going during their opening week. I got a greens and grains bowl, which was put in a plastic container as it seemed like they ran out of the original CAVA bowls. The portion of food I got was significantly less than what I am used to at CAVA. I got the lamb meatballs which I usually love, but these were sooooo salty. I wanted to get a drink, but they were out of lemonade on the floor. I asked if they had any more and was told everything they have is already out without going back to check. Right after checking out, another worker walks out and refills the lemonade. So frustrating!!! Lastly, I asked for a bag to put all my items in. The worker told me they don't have any when there were clearly bags behind her. I asked a different worker and she gave me a bag. I was so excited to have a CAVA in Michigan but this did not meet the mark. I hope they are able to improve with time. read more

Never got to try it- no one would start my order. Walked in 3:43 pm on a Wednesday-one customer was eating. Five employees behind the counter. One employee making what looked like 5 on line orders. One employee making another employee meal. 3 people standing there, while I- the only customer in line waited. Employees chit chat. Chit chat. I wait. No one says hello. No one says be right with you. Guy at take out window was looking at his phone while carrying on a casual conversation with another employee. Waited several minutes then left without placing an order. Too many choices out there. Completely out of touch which is reflected in the overwhelming negative reviews. Regional manager and unit GM should be dismissed. This is no way to run a business. read more

Slow service. I was told "it's Chipotle, but better." There is NOT better than Chipotle. This food does not taste fresh as it has been out all day (and tastes reused from day before). First time, last time. read more

Went at 11:45 am (they open at 10:45 am). Had to ask someone to wipe tables down as they were not clean. Went to order food and the young kid at the counter seemed not interested to be in a customer facing role and had very low energy. Zero greeting to customers to welcome them in. We ordered and were told there are no cucumbers, no falafel (how can you have a mediterranean place and not have the only vegetarian protein available?) and no roasted sweet potatoes (even though the big digital ads on the screens were all about the roasted white sweet potatoes). Asked the kid to check about the missing ingredients as this was the THIRD time that they have been out these ingredients and at the start of the lunch hour! In the end the bowl os's good with the ingredients they do have but all workers don't seem too happy to be there. Also asked for water and the machines only had fountain drinks and soda water - no regular water. read more

My wife ordered pickup from here tonight. Our order was slated for pickup at 5:15. I got there at 5:17pm and there were three others standing there waiting for their orders. After another five minutes went by, one of the women waiting mentioned to me that her order was supposed to be available at 5:00pm, meaning she'd been waiting there for 22 minutes! The entire time there were no orders placed on the pickup shelf. Only after she got the attention of one of the staff did it then become apparent that her food was sitting in a bag near the window behind the pickup counter that entire time. As for my order, it appears that they did not start it until I mentioned that I was waiting for it and had a 5:15 pick-up. At this point it's almost 5:30. When I finally get the food, I'm given cups for lemonade to fill them myself, but come to see that all of the lemonades are out, the ice machine has no ice, and two of the six sodas are unavailable. At this point it's almost 5:40, and I have to get home before 6:00 and didn't have time to wait for the staff to fill and fix things, so I left without part of what I ordered. Absolutely terrible and beyond frustrating pickup experience. My wife wrote to complain and hopefully get reimbursement for the drinks we didn't receive. This was so disappointing. We love CAVA in general, but this experience was horrible and I doubt we'll give it another chance at this location unless they do so to make it right. The staff were not unkind or anything, but they seem under trained and their systems to prep and deliver food either don't work or are non-existent. The food itself was also not good this time. Big letdown. read more

I'm not sure how to describe this experience. But I can guarantee I will never be back. Everything was just average, but the pricing was above average. So the dining room was bland the staff looked tired or bored. The chicken was not trimmed. My dinner partner was pulling out chicken gristle from his pita thing. I ordered the strawberry salmon bowl... not a strawberry in site. The food was so basic I could have made 3 servings at home for the same price. Nothing aligned the atmosphere was dull and tied I think it was the same tables from when it was a Boston market. The floor was a mess the drink station had nearly empty containers. The poor girl trying to sweep up the bits on the carpet had zero success. You really need a vacuum... It was a 20 dollar meal for 40 dollars... as we walked to the car and noticed the Applebees next door we said we should have just gone there.... Cava you need to show the value in your product and you just didn't. read more

great service! Love my food. So good. I enjoy the employees And how kind they are. Drink and food awesome! Yum yum

I live within walking distance from this restaurant but we haven't tried it yet. Today we decided to give it a try at 5:30. Downloaded the app, tried to order a spicy lamb with avacado for me. The app said they did not have cucumber, OK I can adapt. Ordered a steak and feta wrap for my wife and they said they were out. Needless to say we ordered elsewhere and will not even bother with this place again. read more

I've been multiple times and almost always enjoyed my food. Now as far as the experience, that's a completely different story. The restaurant has never been clean enough to sit down in the dining area. The drinks are always low or completely out. The napkin/straw/cup station is usually a mess and out of stock. The customer service is a real problem! There isn't a single adult working. Everyone seems to be a high school kid without supervision. We have witnessed arguments between coworkers on two different occasions. We have been charged for things that they did not have. They scream and curse in front of guests and never seem to care about professionalism. The customers are treated okay if you don't mind the circus show in the background. I clearly love the food which is why I decided to continuously patronize the restaurant. I now only go to the downtown location. read more
