    I recently dined in at CAVA for the very first time in Pasadena. I loved the Harissa Honey Chicken Avocado Bowl so much I had to find another location closer to my home. Found them at Terra Vista Town Center in Rancho Cucamonga. Plentiful parking. Cool! Got here close to closing time and they were still packed with customers. It's a good sign when customers are still coming in till the end. Well done CAVA! Interior was bright and clean. Non-occupied tables were busted. Both indoor and outdoor seatings are available. Fountain drink station and selective standalone drinks are present for your choosing. Restrooms are in the back of the restaurant. Got in line with maybe about 10+ people ahead of me. I feel their system needs to be improved a bit. I understand they can't move forward with the bowls until the bowls in the front are done. Every step of the way, our bowls were filled, but just sitting there getting cold until the previous bowls are done. Not sure how they can improve the assembly. Btw, their ingredients stations were messy not the most organized bins. Crumbs of stuff all over the place. You'll see what I mean when you see the photos. They really need to keep their stations clean and organized. Anyway, I wanted to try the Spicy Lamb Bowl, but the meat didn't look as great as the ones at Pasadena. So I got the Harissa Honey Chicken Avocado Bowl again. The chicken was not in big chunks like the other place. Oh well. Got the bowl as the chef curated plus a few more toppings such slaw, tomato + cucumber, and tomato + onion. Unlimited toppings as many as you choose. Selective toppings such as avocado may have an extra charge. Soda water wasn't working great at the fountain station. Someone needs to check it out. Bowl was good, but was not as good as the one I had at Pasadena. Something was off about it. Maybe the ingredients did not have the same level of preparation and freshness. Not really sure. One more thing, this bowl doesn't normally come with a pita, but I was offered one pita free of charge at the Pasadena location. I wasn't offered the same here. Bummer! Staff was okay not the most welcoming and smiliest. Nonetheless, still a great place to get one of their Chef-Curated Bowls at varying prices or Build Your Own (BYO) bowl starting at $12.95. Just be mindful the price could add up with BYO. I may return again, but during earlier hours and not at almost closing time. Hopefully the stations will be much cleaner and organized. Thanks CAVA!

    Each dish is crafted with the freshest ingredients. Typically wait time is pretty quick and food is always fresh. The only downfall that I see is little to no customer service not,that they're rude. It's just that they're trying to get everybody out quickly so if it's your first time there, I would definitely maybe research what they offer so that when you're ordering, you have a better decision of what you wanna try. Everything is so good so it's hard to say what's my favorite but I will say the one I most order is the Has avocado chicken is delicious!!

    This was delicious. I loved building my own bowl just hope to remember what I ordered for next time... Staff could learn to communicate a little more with each other and less eye rolls.. it doesn't come off as friendly or welcoming

    My friends and I worked out and decided to stop by here for some bowls! Upon arriving, there was already a line starting inside and majority tables full. For food, I got the honey harissa chicken bowl with super greens and saffron rice, tzatziki, corn, tomato + cucumbers, pickled onions, pita crisps, skhug, yogurt dill, and garlic dressing. It is on the saucier side but I enjoy that! It definitely gets busy during lunch rush so beware of the line!

    I'm so disappointed in my experience I had last week. I always wanted to try cava but it's not close nearby where I live. I drove around 30minutes to this location. I get there around 8pm, Audrey took my order, when it was my turn to order I say hello she completely ignores me me instead she turns around to talk to her coworkers. Her coworker had to tell her I was standing behind her for her to even acknowledge me! Every time I had a question, she gave me attitude. I told her it was my first time trying cava and she mumbled something under breath. Her co workers started to help me and they were much better help. I never knew my first time trying cava would be such a bad experience. I won't be returning here ever again shame because the food was really good.

    A lot has changed in a year. Terrible Customer Service!! These employees are miserable and careless (slapping the ingredients on my bowl). The place is dirty. Chipotle would never!

    So I love cava but this location is always messing up my order. I order for pick up and every time I get my bowl something is wrong with it. This picture is what my bowl looked like after ordering with extra toppings. It was the lightest bowl I've ever received. Even though the food is good here I don't know if I'll even keep coming back. Customer support is great with compensating for mistakes like this but I'm kinda tired of not having even a decent meal each time I go. I like ordering basmati rice with chicken. I get the crazy feta scoops. I add broccoli, cucumber, corn, feta, and pita chips. Their garlic sauce and yogurt dill sauces are super good. I hope they can get better at scooping food into a bowl because I'd choose cava over chipotle any day. They have good drinks too. There's always a huge line and they kinda ignore pick up orders so you'll pretty much stand there until someone stops pretending like they don't see you. The manager is nice and takes accountability when they mess up the orders but it gets old.

    Please get CAVA's some small bags for the pita chips. 3rd time I was handed my chips, without a bag. I know they are just chips, but who said I wanted to eat them at that moment. I have to end up wrapping them up in napkins before I leave the restaurant.....smh!

    Food is always fresh, healthy and tasty. I try to eat healthy foods so this place doesn't make me feel like I'm sacrificing the experience of eating out. Freshness and quality ingredients make it an excellent place . I think this may be my second review Bathroom had no toilet seat covers.

    This was my 1st time here. It was during the lunch rush (1:15pm). However the line moved quickly. If you like chiptole you'll love Cava. The ingredient are better quality and they aren't stingy. Loved the staff. Very nice and very diverse just like the customers. Loved it. The restaurant was cleaned. And the staff (even though it was very busy) was attentive to everyone's needs. I decided to try the Steak & Harissa bowl ($17). It had a small kick (spice) to it. It was delicious. This is one of the specialty bowls. I also tried the fried pita chips ($2). That was perfect with my bowl. It had a lot of flavor and was crunchy. I tried the different lemonade they offered. Cucumber lime with a splash of spirt was good. The cost was ok ($22 + free drink). I had food left over so really like 2 meals. I will definitely come back.

    Came here by sheer luck with my partner. We were looking for a place to eat after a little home…read moreshopping, and it turned out to be such a pleasant surprise... tbh I didn't expect to enjoy our meals as much as we did! The lovely host at the counter knew her dishes and helped us make a selection. I ordered the chicken pesto sandwich, and he had the salmon roll (easily one of the best sandwiches he's had in a while). Everything was flavorful, fresh, and just really well done. (We overheard the chef talking with another guest about how everything is made from scratch in house using the freshest ingredients, and you can truly taste the difference). This little corner burger spot on the edge of Upland feels like a hidden gem with gourmet quality... We'll be back to try more menu items and their homemade desserts!

    We tried this place for the first time tonight about an hour before this place closed. I don't know…read morehow this place has so many great reviews. I am going to be real honest with our review. I ordered a hamburger that was absolutely terrible. The bread was big and bulky and hard, the meat. patty was dry and hard as a rock. It had no sauce/no pickles & one tiny little piece of onion. My husband ordered a pastrami sandwich, which did not have much pastrami in it, the fries were not cooked. They were not crispy. They were pretty much floppy and raw. The young lady working there must have been new because she did not know how to work the cash register. There was a young guy that came out from the kitchen and started talking to another one of customers and his girlfriend. The employee started asking the customer about their relationship... Not professional at all. Worst pastrami sandwich, worst burger & worst fries.

If you're looking for the definitive Lebanese experience in the IE, this is the order to beat. The Breakdown: * The Trio Grill: You get a sampling of everything--chicken, beef, and kefta kebabs. The chicken kebab was the standout for me; it was incredibly tender and had that perfect open-flame char that you just can't replicate at home. * Baba Ghanoush: This was a smoky revelation. You can taste the fire-roasted eggplant in every bite, and the texture was perfectly whipped and creamy without losing its soul. It's easily some of the best in the area. * Tabouleh: So many places use too much bulgur, but Mezzaterranean does it right. It was a bright, herbaceous explosion of fresh parsley and lemon that cut through the richness of the grilled meats perfectly. * The Extras: It all comes together with their fluffy rice and warm pita. Pro tip: use the pita to make little "mini-tacos" with a piece of chicken, a dollop of baba ghannouj, and a pinch of tabouleh. The Verdict: The portions on the Trio Plate are massive (definitely enough to share, though you might not want to). Everything tasted fresh, vibrant, and authentic. It's clear this family-run spot puts a lot of heart into their recipes. 10/10, will be back for more of that garlic sauce!

    The food was good overall, although the salad wasn't quite what I expected. The decor is nice and…read morethe atmosphere is pleasant. It's a small restaurant that could benefit from a more exposure. I'd definitely come back and try other dishes and the and and who doesn't enjoy good service.
