The ladies working in there were so nice and gave us a run down of the menu since it was our 1st time there. I got the chicken kabob sandwich w/fries and my fried got the chicken kabob plate. I thought the bread was naan bread but it's taboo bread. The lady taking orders asked us how everything was and it was delicious and she was so proud to hear that and say that they make everything fresh. If you're looking to experience some food from a different culture and try something new definitely check this place out.

I'd definitely ask for her again. The cauliflower appetizer is an absolute must-order. It was amazing. The spinach fatayer was also very good, and the salad served before the entrée was spot on--fresh, flavorful, and a perfect start to the meal. For the entrées, the Lahm was excellent. The only dish that missed the mark for me was the Lamb Shank. It was cooked well, but everything on the plate had the same flavor profile, so it lacked contrast and didn't stand out the way I hoped. The décor is beautiful. Every design choice feels intentional, and even the music volume was perfect--it created a great atmosphere without overpowering conversation. One thing that really stood out was how attentive the entire staff and management team were. They were constantly making rounds, checking on guests, and ensuring everyone was taken care of. Valet parking is available, which makes visiting even easier. Overall, I loved the experience and will definitely be back.

The one thing I needed was some type of grain like rice or couscous to go with all of this. Regardless, this dish seemed to be the strongest of the dinner items. Also, the appetizer of grape leaves was very fresh and flavorful. It wasn't a big deal, but it did take a little bit longer than we had anticipated for the food to come out. Maybe it was because of the lamb shank. My friend did not think too highly of the Sayadeya, so if you are not particularly drawn to fish, then I would recommend something else. Like the lamb shank.

First time at this location but long a fan of this chain of fast casual Mediterranean restaurant…read more Ample parking at least for lunch despite being in a fairly busy strip mall. Minimal wait to order and food quickly arrived at the table. My go to is typically one of their gyros. Usually the Lamb Gyro with Pasta Salad or Tomato-Cucumber Salad. We regularly get the Grilled Chicken Family Feast for takeout with Hummus and Whipped Feta from the location close to home. The Family Feast for 4 is plenty for 6 or 7. Especially when you add Grilled Veggies for my vegetarian daughter.

A group of us met there for dinner, and we were greeted and seated right away. Since it was only their second day open, there were still a few things being worked on, like some missing window blinds and their liquor license, but the staff was friendly and very accommodating. We started with the bacon-wrapped shrimp, hummus, and halloumi appetizers. Everything was delicious, but the bacon-wrapped shrimp was definitely the star. For my entrée, I ordered the grilled kefta plate with added grilled shrimp, which came with a side salad and homemade dressing. This dish did not disappoint. The food was fresh, flavorful, and cooked perfectly. We also tried their tiramisu and their lemon mascarpone cake. Both were equally good and had the right amount of sweetness. Joseph's Table is currently open for dinner only, but should be opened soon for lunch. Overall, we had a great experience, and I think Joseph's Table will be a wonderful addition to Pelham and the surrounding area.

To save a little extra money, the kid's pita meal is often plenty of food. You get a pita filled with protein of your choice, along with grains and a few toppings. As for me, I got a bowl with falafel, greens, cucumber, corn, feta cheese, and with red pepper and regular hummus to dip. This is my go-to order and it hasn't let me down yet. I'd also recommend getting the pita chips if you'd like; they're perfectly crunchy with addictive seasoning sprinkled on top. This location (downtown Birmingham) is clean and the workers are quick. It's also right across from Publix, so it's a great place to refuel before getting your groceries.

So I gave them a lot of politely negative feedback on the issue and took a break. Today I decided to give them another chance. Today them lentils were just fine, and the rest of the meal was excellent. I like to do a custom build, power greens, lentils, spicy side sauces, red pepper hummus, Harrisa and Tzatziki, Then salmon for the meat (Harrisa chicken is also excellent). Lots of veggie topping and Shug sauce rounds it out. Today it was fresh, spicy and flavorful. They offer a ton of healthy options, and so many ways to customize your meal. If they haven taken to heart delivering good lentils (as it appears they have), then I'm back in for regular visits. Healthy and tasty food don't always mix but CAVA makes it happen. As to the ambiance it's a bit spartan and no padding on the seats but there's plenty of indoor space and a bit of outdoor seating too. Service from the folks behind the counter has been mix, but for the most part, they're friendly.
