    Okay, so second visit to Cava, with the summer heat, a fresh and flavorful bowl always hits the spot. Now that school is getting back into the swing of things, this location has definitely picked up. There was a small line and many of the tables were occupied. The line moved quickly and the we were able to build our bowls in no time. I had almost the same exact thing as my first experience, lots of fresh veggies, delicious dips, and the delicious harissa pita chips. This time I did try the braised lamb and they had just launched some new dips/sauces for their pita chips, outside their normal line up. We tried the green garlic sauce, which was nice and refreshing! Lamb was good, but for almost a $4-5 dollar upcharge, not sure I would get it again. The service was friendly as well. The real difference in this experience is every single table was so dirty and gross in the entire restaurant. I am not talking just dirty, I mean sticky and food crumbs and overall, with their decent size dining space, we could not find one clean table. I get it, they are busy and it was picking up, but there was multiple times were no one was in line, and they seemed as they were staffed well that I am not really sure why there wasn't someone going out more frequently. On top of that, the bathroom were equally gross and dirty. With this experience, I will most likely keep with takeout or check out other locations.

    Cava is usually pretty good but it has gone downhill the last couple times I've gotten it. Terrible service, dirty tables everywhere, and smaller portions than previous visits. I don't want to really dive in on my most recent experience but it was horrible. Probably will avoid cava for a while.

    The food here is good but my online orders are always wrong. This time around my pita was missing, the serving was less than half the bowl. And it seems they poured so much vinaigrette on that my bowl almost became a soup- a vinaigrette that i had asked for on the side by the way. I still ate it, and i likely will again but maybe at a different location...

    The servings and service is not great. Individual paying infront of me is gripping about the same situation

    Food is always fresh, greens are crisp, and the sauces are divine at Cava! I have to give this location four stars for service (poor staff are rushed and understaffed), as well as the dining room's condition (tables are often dirty and have crumbs/trash). I would be able to rate this location five stars if the dining room was cleaner!

    I've loved Cava since I first discovered it but haven't been in awhile. However I keep coming back despite it being in the middle of all the ASU hubbub. It's an incredible alternative to Chipotle and it's my favorite health conscious food spot, they always deliver and the atmosphere there is pretty lively. Lovely sunsets can be seen from this location too however I failed to snap any photos of that. Overall great spot and always worth the trip!

    Management seriously needs to get involved and do something about this location. My review and even those before me, take a hint already! -Line server staff so quiet and inconsiderate. No greeting when you get up to the counter, she just stood there staring at me and I saw her do the same with other customers. -My pita was dripping wet from the chicken (hello, drain it from the spoon when you scoop it). I asked for a new paper wrap and it was still soggy enough to soak my pita. - Dirty tables everywhere! There's even a sign posted in the dining area that tables are sanitized after each use. Not true. If the front looks like this, then how is the back kitchen area? The location is convenient but it isn't worth it when you get a gross meal, bad/rude service, and a dirty, disgusting environment.

    Some restaurants chase trends. Others just quietly keep making really good food year after year…read more This is one of those places. I'd been here several times years ago, and after coming back, I'm honestly wondering why I don't eat here more often. I ordered the chicken shawarma, a stuffed grape leaves platter, and hot tea. Everything was exactly what I hoped it would be. The chicken was well-seasoned, tender, and wrapped with the classic toppings, and the portion was fair for the price. Speaking of price, the value here is honestly hard to beat. The stuffed grape leaves platter came with hummus, tabbouleh, pita, and hot stuffed grape leaves. I had completely forgotten they serve them warm, and my brain needed a minute to recalibrate because I'm so used to cold dolmas everywhere else. Once I took a bite, though... yep. That's how they're supposed to taste. Soft, flavorful, perfectly seasoned, and absolutely delicious. I ended up adding some of the hummus and tabbouleh to my shawarma, which made an already great sandwich even better. The service was just as impressive as the food. My server was genuinely kind, gave me a few extra minutes when I couldn't decide, checked in without hovering, and even offered to package my hot tea to go when he noticed I was still working on it. (For the record, ordering an entire pot of tea for one person was an ambitious life choice on my part.) The dining room isn't huge, and there's also a small market attached, which adds to the charm. This place reminds me that consistency is underrated. Years later, I came back, and it was just as good as I remembered. Great food, great service, great value. I'll try not to wait so long before my next visit.

Got the food fast and the rose water lemonade was good. Mango juice tasted like Jumex and that's yummy to me lol Waitresses were nice and attentive. Bathrooms and the floors in the dining area need some TLC. Hopefully the kitchens kept up with. Waters we did not drink. They should probably clean up the walkway to the bathroom too there was just a bunch of stuff. They also have a store attached which was cool. We didn't look but still cool. Chicken shawarma was bomb!

We ordered a Greek Salad with Gyro and a Vegetarian platter, retrieved our drinks and found a table. Our food arrived about 10 minutes later. The Greek Salad was delicious and included greens, cucumbers, tomatoes, Kalamata olives, red onions and feta cheese. I added gyro as the protein and it was a generous portion. The Vegetarian plate was also generous and was enjoyed by my friend. It included three crispy falafel, hummus, tabouleh salad, baba ghannoug, 2 stuffed grape leaves and tahini sauce with pita bread. We look forward to returning. Highly recommended for delicious Greek food and generous portions at a fair price!
