    Front seating area

    This is easily one of my favorite Cava locations. The food is just as delicious and fresh as you'd expect, but what really stood out to me was the team working here. Everyone was friendly and welcoming, and you can tell the place is well managed. Diosis, the manager, was especially kind and kept everything running smoothly. The line moved quickly, the restaurant was clean, and the whole experience felt really organized. I also appreciated how spacious this location is. There were plenty of tables available, and it felt cool and comfortable inside. All around, a great visit. Big thanks to the team and to Diosis for making it such a good one.

    Cava is my favorite healthy fast food! The location in Fairfax on Lee highway/Kamp Washington has the friendliest staff. Stephany goes above and beyond, always welcoming customers with a smile. They keep the location clean and are always working as a team. The food is delicious and offers a wide variety of options.

    For the folks that don't know what CAVA is: it is a Mediterranean version of Chipotle. You choose what ingredients to go into your bowl. This is considered on the healthy side as far as fast food restaurants go. I've visited many CAVAs since they are a chain. This one 5/5 for the location, 4/5 for the food, and 3/5 for the service. This is located in the plaza at the intersection of Main Street and Lee Highway. So there is plenty of parking lot parking. There is ample seating indoors and outdoors. There are even individual seats with outlets (see pic). I've been here a couple of times and I have not had any issues with the quality of food. I do wish they filled the bowl more. Price for a bowl is around $11 now so I do want to get my money's worth. I like they you can choose to go half grains and half greens for the base. There is also pretty much unlimited toppings. Some proteins and toppings (like avocado) do cost extra though. But you can ask for pita bread on the side and this doesn't cost extra. The pita chips do, however. I normally just get a water cup since I am pretty frugal, but they do have some nice healthy juices (see pic). The service is what bring this place down though. I get that it is fast food, but would it kill the employees to greet you when you step up to the counter? There were a number of workers behind the counter when I stepped up but it took them a least a min to ask what I wanted. And there was nobody in front or behind me. When the worker added the ingredients to my bowl, he did it pretty sloppily. Though I can appreciate that he informed me that avocado cost extra before he put it into my bowl. So I had time to decline. But I am glad they have a CAVA here when I need my healthy fast food fix.

    I ordered my bowl and it was ready within 5 minutes, a generous helping, and when I called to modify an aspect of my online order Naomi was super helpful! Love this location, glad it's close by my job. The location by my house (Kingstown) and the Mosaic location skimp my bowls and try to charge me extra for a regular portion size. Almost wrote off the whole company, but Fairfax location did their big one! Will be visiting this location from now on. Thanks Naomi!

    frozen chunk of food in my bowl

    I typically have great experiences at this Cava, but today I ordered delivery for dinner and we received a chunk of FROZEN FOOD. Someone scooped a rock of frozen food into the bowl and said yep, that looks good and packed it up for delivery.
