    Several girlfriends and I had dinner here prior to catching a movie one evening. Most of us made our own bowls, which is such a fabulous option here. All of the ingredients are so fresh and so tasty! I decided to upgrade to get the lamb as my protein and enjoyed a bunch of the different veggies and toppings. I finished it off with the garlic sauce which is fabulous. Super nice staff, wonderful food.

    Lentil avocado bowl

    I've never been to a CAVA before. There was no one else in line when I arrived at 5pm on a Friday so we had time to figure out what we wanted. A line started for me only like few minutes after we placed our order. I went with the lentil avocado bowl and my partner got the lamb meatball pita. The lentil avocado bowl was very good. I wished I got the dressings on the side because there was a little too much dressing mixed in the bowl. Some of the raw cabbage slices were too big. It would have been nice if a side came with the bowl like the pita chips and if there was a little bit more falafel. I felt satisfied after eating the whole bowl. I enjoyed the variety of vegetables in the bowl and the flavors mixed all together, especially with their "hot" sauce. Their hot sauce is mildly spicy. My partner also enjoyed his lamb meatball pita. Didn't try their dessert options as they were just packaged and made in another state. Trier three of their juices from their juice dispensers: the blueberry lavender, strawberry citrus, and lemonade. The blueberry lavender was the best out of the three. Strawberry citrus tasted like there was artificial sweetener. This is a good place to get fast casual healthier Mediterranean food.

    I love Cava! I used to have lunch at Cava in Maryland where I used to live, so I was happy they opened one here in Wilmington. The food is always fresh and well prepared. I had a combo salad and grains (lentils) along with a "spicy" lamb meatballs. I was warned by the person that made my dish that they were spicy. Nope, not for me. They were quite flavorful. This is a place where you go down the line and choose what you want in your salad, pita wrap, etc. I topped my salad with feta, olives, pickled onions, a mix of onions, tomatoes and cucumber, etc. You can choose three dips. I chose the tzatziki, hummus, and a feta, japapeno dip. It also came with 1/4 pita bread (you get more at the Cava in Maryland where I used to live). Total price with bottled water was a little over $15, in which I thought was reasoanble. There is inside dining and also outside dining with tables and umbrellas. Love Cava for the healthy food options. I'll be back again!!

    Yes yes yes, go to Cava!!! Okay okay hear me out- I tried visiting here about 2 months ago when they first opened, like any business just opening, it was a mess, and PACKED. However, my food tasted good- so I knew I would come back in a few weeks. Here I am 2 months later, I hyped this place up to my husband. He's a big chipotle fan and I'm just not that into it, but I love Mediterranean food so I knew this would be my jam. After hyping it up and walking him through the steps of the process he made some choices for his bowl. I always get the Tahini Chicken Caesar Bowl- it's not listed up on the large menu but it's one of their curated bowls on the website that I looked up prior to my first visit. If you want a classic Mediterranean bowl, order this!!!! It's not spicy & it has such a great mixture of flavors. There is just a salad base, no rice- so if you're looking for grains you could always add that. I also opt to add my own veggies from the topping bar at the end to get in some extra goodies. Whatever you do ORDER THE PITA CHIPS. They are fried pita slices of perfection that pair so nicely with dipping for your bowl. I can't rave enough about the pita chips. Like I said, I saved my review for CAVA after giving them a bit of time, and I'm glad I did. My experience was much better this time, the staff was more knowledgeable and felt more comfortable with creating the bowls you ask for or answering questions. I'm so glad we have a Cava and I hope it sticks around!!!

    I stopped by on the way to the beach. I absolutely love their pita chips. Terrance was more than happy to make sure I had fresh ones.

    Yummy! Expensive tho. Why does Yelp make these reviews have to be so long? The kids meal is one of the best out there.

There were a few mess ups though. Our food was brought to the wrong table, and it took a long time for us to get it because they ended up leaving that food with the other table and remaking ours. I made eye contact with the staff member when she realized the mistake, but there wasn't really an apology for it or for the extra wait. Mind you, it was raw veggies I was waiting on. Someone also poured a beer, dropped it but caught it and some of it spilled. They didn't ask to replace it, which was a little off, knowing the price of alcohol. The place also turns into more of a nightclub later in the evening, so parking gets crazy. Super cool nightclub though. Overall, the staff were friendly, the atmosphere was fun and the food was amazing.

    We had dinner there on Wednesday and arrived right at 5pm so we were seated quickly. The ambience…read moreis wonderful with a high end feel and romantic atmosphere. The garden area was absolutely beautiful and worth going to for a evening meal just by itself. Definitely one of the nicer interior restaurants we have been to in a while. The menu options were ok, not as varied as I would have liked but I also think if I liked fish I would have enjoyed the options more They have an elaborate table side filtering of fish which would be a unique experience for those who enjoy fish. My husband ordered the braised short rib with orzo and I ordered the moussaka. No bread or any other offering was provided which was a bit disappointing at this price point Both of our dishes were good but nothing exceptional. I recently had mossaka in Edinburgh Scotland and it was noticeably better with a rich complex flavor, this one was a bit bland. I think if we had friends coming into town and wanted a nice upscale ambience where the food is secondary I would go back, but probably won't be a frequent option for us
