I ordered online the night before for pick up on my way to the airport. The location opens at 10:30 but they allowed me to sit and wait for my order prior them opening at 10:30. Cava is my favorite chain! It's fresh and allows you to customize based on how you're feeling/will be able to accommodate dietary requirements. I ordered the salad with half chicken and half lamb, a lot of toppings and the yogurt dill dressing. It was absolutely delicious!!! Note, you can take your meal through security at the airport as long as it's not too saucy/too much liquid!

I wasn't a fan of Mediterranean Food. One day I decide to stop in Cava over in River Forest. I ordered the chicken bowl with jasmine rice, kale green salad, cucumbers and other veggies. There are a variety healthy options to fulfill your appetite. You can customize your preference with a bowl, salads or pitas. This place caught me by surprise with the delicious taste of eating right. This is what the doctor's has ordered me to eat. Healthier and Clean. It has now been my second visited and both times have not disappointed me. I also ordered the blueberry lavender drink 190 Cal of deliciousness. The red pepper hummus has made me a fan. The service is friendly and quick.

Ambiance - modern, open kitchen, offers area for dine in customers Service - line to order moved fairly quickly, I just wish the dine in tables were a little cleaner (a handful were dirty with food on it) Food - huge portions and love that you get to build your own bowl

I had Cava for the first time and was pleasantly surprised. The harissa chicken bowl has lots of ingredients that blend together. I'd compare it to a Mediterranean Chipotle. The ingredients are fresh, colorful and all aesthetically pleasing. They come with a side pita or a purchasable whole soft pita. They have packaged cookies and brownies. Flavored drinks also. Street parking available.

This was my first time at Cava and I had a great experience. I came in on a Saturday night so it was busy but I didn't have to wait in line that long. Cava has great options. I love Mediterranean food, so I was happy that Cava was coming to IL. I pretty much almost got every option in my bowl and don't regret it. The honey spicy chicken is addicting! I was not a fan of the falafel. The chickpeas aren't blended so when you bite into it, you're just biting into whole chickpeas which threw me off. Just a texture thing for me! I also did not like their pita bread. I believe it is whole wheat pita so it doesn't taste as good as white pita. It was also cold and dry so I didn't eat it.

Came here for the first time with my sister for a late lunch. We both got a chicken and rice bowl. It was sooo good! We both enjoyed it a lot. Service was friendly, J.R was super nice and accommodating to any changes we might have wanted in our bowls. Will be back.

Custom made bowl included rice, spinach, honey chicken, falafel and garlic & lemon herb sauces

Portion sizes are better than my usual lunch. The cucumber mint is pretty but can you guys make something with berries? I would love that.

The place is clean, the staff is genuine, the food is delicious. The most memorable part of my dining experience was a bowl of lentil soup that the owner?chef made & shared with me. DAMN DUDE! I NEVER ORDER SOUP & NOW I'M CRAVING ANOTHER HIT!

North Avenue Falafel is located on North Avenue of course, but it's way out west around Oak Park. Has more than just falafel here with lots of classic items. There's options for both meat eaters and vegetarians who will find lots of good things. Came in around lunch and got a combo. It's about $12 for a typical one. They also have a few cheaper lunch specials. Had to get the Falafel Platter. This is the place's signature item after all, so it had to be good, and it was. I came with eight pieces of falafel. Quite a lot for a platter at this price. Lots of good ass stuff on here. There was hummus, Jerusalem salad, pitas, and rice. Falafel is the main thing it seems, but there's actually plenty more. There's side items like salads and soups. Have to make a return trip over here some time and get some more of the falafel and some other items. It's the best at lunch when there's some specials. There's more than just falafel, with a few meaty choices, and lots of choices for vegans and vegetarians.

this place is the place to go as they have their act together in every aspect…read more went on a thursday night with an opentable reservation for my friend and myself as we were catching up. my friend is a wine person (i'm no where near what he is) who has travelled the world in pursuit of wine and has a wine collection that would knock your socks off---and he picked this place based upon having a good wine selection--and he and the server talked wine, with me clueless as i'm a no knowledge wine person! the service was excellent. our server did not rush us and answered every question in detail as there were some things we just did not understand on the menu. the food presentation was top notch and well prepared. i have the amish chicken and it was not only presented nicely, but was juicy--even the white meat! had the octopus for an appetizer and that was quite good. my friend had a pasta which was quite tasty, so really, i conclude the food is well prepared and well presented. the ambiance is comfy and it is the the type of place you can come dressed up or in jeans. so make the reservation and go.... we were there talking til after close a bit and not once did they rush us out, so i say go, figure about 50-75/person, but make the open table reservation.

This is definitely a gem in oak park! Ambiance is lovely…read more Service was very good. Food was also very good and prices were not crazy as they tend to be in oak park. Definitely recommend it for brunch! Plenty of parking spots around.

I came here during the week for Happy Hour $10.00 Hookah and $6.00 Wings. I came here a few years…read moreago with a friend and the improvement of this place is much better. The new owners really out did themselves with the decor inside. Full Bar for you to order a drink and food as well. It gets pretty crowded even during the week. The ambience that night was chilled and with good energy. The guy that took my order and off he went into the back. It took him a minute to return. It was all good because the energy was nice. I ordered the 6 wings and was a little disappointed. Burnt on the outside and not fully done in the inside. There is other food choices on the menu as well. I should have followed my mind and ordered just the fries. I have been to other hookah places, and this seems to be the only one that serves cocktail drinks and food. They have many hookah flavors for you to choose. I went with a very mild tropical flavor which was really delicious. Well, needed after a stressful day at work. I heard that they no longer have the $10.00 Hookah Happy Hour. Which is a bummer because that was a good deal. I guess all good things must come to an end. Now that they have built up their business. Nice ambience with some good vibes.

I don't even smoke hookah, but I keep coming back to Hubble Hookah for one reason: their shawarma…read morefries are absolutely bomb. They're seriously worth the visit on their own. If you're there, skip the hookah (like me) and just dive straight into those fries!
