    Pork gyro
    Pearl M.

    We're from Chicago, which is a great city to eat your way through. My uncle is also Greek and very picky, so I think I know a thing or two about Greek food and gyros. We happened to be in Boston for a few days and my husband insisted I go to Zo with him even though he had gone the day before for lunch. He said it was the best gyro he had ever had. That's a pretty big claim, so I had to try it. He wasn't wrong! The meat was fresh and delicious, and more surprisingly, pork! According to the owner, in Greece, gyros are all pork or chicken. I had no clue! We're use to the Kronos type of gyros on a spit which are lamb. This was a wonderful change of pace and tasted so fresh and delicious. I also tried the dolmades and soup, also delicious! The staff was very efficient and super friendly. We got a culinary lesson and would love to go back next time we're back in Boston. The restaurant itself is very clean and open. It was a beautiful day and they had a seating area facing out from a large window. It was a perfect lunch spot on a beautiful day in Boston.

    Gyro and chips for lunch

    The chicken gyro was one of the best I've ever had! Filled with well-seasoned meat, fresh parsley and red onions, and delicious tzatziki sauce. The pita tasted fresh. I ordered through toast and it was ready in early. When I walked into the restaurant to pick up my order, I was greeted by friendly staff. Cannot wait to go back! Don't forget to order chips to go with your gyro! Deep River chips are the best.

    Good for a quick lunch. And they are FAST, barely had time to think about what I wanted on my bowl before they were already throwing it on there. Prices are fair and food is decent but a tad salty.

    Deliciously moist chicken gyro
    Lauren J.

    Came here for the first time for lunch today. It's a block or so from my work, but I hadn't gone in. Honestly, I didn't really like (or didn't THINK I liked) Greek food until I actually went to Greece last summer. Yum! I got there at about 11:45 and there was already a healthy line. It's a really small place, so it's not hard to have a line almost out of the door. It took less than 5 minutes to get to the counter and my food was ready for me when I got to the register. No complaints! I ended up ordering the chicken gyro, though I was thisclose to getting spanakopita. I figured I'd start with one of their staples first. I did not regret it! It was a healthy portion of food for $9. I actually ate it over 2 "afternoon food eating sessions". Ha! Anyway - the chicken was moist and plentiful, the tzatziki was creamy and cucumbery and there were plenty of tomato and onion pieces to round it out (not to mention that pita...!). All in all - I would totally come back here for lunch. Next stop: spanakopita and then maybe an original gyro just because. But wait - the soups look good too! And I do love me some Greek salad. I guess I'll have to go a lot more often :-)

    Quick service. Good gyros, could use more flavor, chicken felt a tad bit dry. For the price, it's a good option but don't expect your mind to be blown.

We ordered the meatballs, the souvla of the day and the salad. Everything was so tasty. You can't go wrong with anything here. The table next to us had the huge sampler which was about $240 but was one of every dish on the menu. This is a perfect choice for six to 8 people. Service was super friendly.

    I would've given Krasi five stars for the bread rolls alone. Almost everyone in my dinner party…read morenominated this as their favorite. The menu refers to these as "Greek cheese bread" but somehow that doesn't do it justice - these were immensely pillowy and cheesy, with an amazing crust, with homemade honey butter on the side. I could have had just these for dinner and been satisfied. They really nailed the bread. My other favorites: 1. Hipiti: spicy whipped feta with crispy potatoes on the side. I don't do well with spice but I absolutely loved this. 2. Marouli: winter lettuce with the most amazing vinaigrette dressing. My only knock to this is, presentation-wise, they serve it with half of the plate empty and the other half with salad. I don't understand why restaurants do this because - one, it only highlights the smaller portion and two, we're just going to mix the salad all around in the bowl anyway. 3. Boudeto: daily catch in a beautiful tomato broth. For a seafood dish at a restaurant in Back Bay, this was priced at a fairly reasonable $28. The only dish that fell a little flat for me was the tzatziki - needed a bit more seasoning. As it was, I was eating mostly just plain yogurt. The table-side preparation was cool, though. The space is its own visual dinner, there's simply a lot to look at (including a drawing of Poseidon riding a surf board). We got the big table in the back, which was a beautiful glass structure with a whole terrarium underneath. We couldn't stop marveling at it throughout the meal. Our waiter was wonderful - very helpful recommendations, came by to check on us often even though we were pretty far in the back, super patient with our questions. Hard to get reservations but worth it! Don't bother driving / trying to find parking unless you're willing to eat a hefty garage fee, it's Back Bay.

    Never say no to bread. It sets the tone…read more Zucchini chips came out first - crispy, salty, and a real portion. Business. Then the Paros IPA - crisp, refreshing, and immediately made it clear I would have 2. Lamb meatballs followed - more oval than ball, but I'm not here to police shapes. Sat on a bed of tzatziki. No complaints. Moussaka was next: warm, rich, comforting. I love beef and potatoes. Then pork vs. chicken souvlaki. Waiter warned: pork's fattier, chicken's his preference. Got both. He was right - chicken wins. Only critique: One less dish and we would've had room for baklava... Would go back. Would order less. Would always say yes to bread.

    Got to head over to Kava for a second round today and try some things I did not get around to last…read moretime, so here are my thoughts: The food REMAINS IMPECCABLE. I was obsessed with the octopus last time and it was once again grilled to perfection with excellent acidity. The zucchini chips were delightful (even as someone who hates zucchini's). The feta psiti was a comfort per usual. What blew me away and I was so excited to try was the lamb chops. They were cooked to perfection, the look was closer to a medium-well (we asked for medium) but the meat was still perfectly juicy and spiced. The mousaka was also lovely, I have only had this dish homemade and it certainly held its own... definitely had a homemade feel with a generous meat portion. The Roka salad was also lovely. As far as drinks go, I enjoyed my aperol spritz and my spicy margarita a lot, I especially like the tsipouro having tried it as a shot the first time, but I think if I were to go again, I might go for wine for a more consistent liquor content. Now let's talk about service. I want to preface that certain things would 1000% be overlooked had we reserved for a busier time, but we went in 15 minutes after opening and by the looks of it, there were more than enough servers for the tables filled in the patio. The first time that I tried Kava, part of the excellent experience was our server. They were such a sweet person who really took the time to bond with us, brought us a round on the house, and just checked on us and made sure we were always doing good. Today really lacked that element. As soon as we sat down, the server informed us that they were out of three small plates, which happens, but not 15 minutes after opening as this was the case. Nonetheless, we were able to order a lot of yummy things, so fine. We then asked if it would be possible to angle the umbrella some way or move to a different table so I would be covered from the scorching sun this afternoon, and our server said "just wait ten minutes, the sun will move behind the building..." I understand that I asked for a patio and obviously you cannot control the sun nor the weather, but I just feel like the situation could be handled a little better -- at least a better response. Then, my dad ordered a beer which was completely warm. We asked for another which was luke warm, so then he just asked for a cocktail instead. The server was kind enough to bring a cold beer on the house later, but again, right at open, you kind of expect things to be in order. Overall, our server was just kind of... there, not super attentive nor pleasant. Another thing, I tried to get around the Resy "day before" policy because the reservations for Sunday opened during my graduation ceremony on Saturday and I wanted to make sure I get my table especially as my parents were catching a flight, so I emailed management in advance per the host's instructions upon calling. We went back and forth rather unnecessarily (with very delayed replies on their part), then I got completely ghosted... Not sure why. I was eventually able to get a table by calling the host after my ceremony on Saturday and they were incredibly accommodating, but they also noted that this was a graduation celebration, yet there was no acknowledgment... I had a graduation dinner last year at a different establishment in Boston and our server went beyond to ensure a great experience and even brought out a hand-written card with our check. These details could really really help the Kava experience in my opinion. Finally, the servers bringing out the dishes were completely confused. Almost every single dish was brought to the wrong table before reaching us and we could see them running around the patio with our order... rather unprofessional. Ultimately, it is the service that leads me to dock a star from my previous rating. Had the food not been as consistently fantastic, I definitely would be docking more.

The format is build-your-own bowl or pita, similar to other assembly-style restaurants, but with bold Mediterranean flavors and plenty of fresh toppings to work with.

Staff are usually friendly and generous with portions, especially when it comes to the dips and toppings. The menu offers a solid variety of bases like rice, greens, or lentils, along with proteins such as grilled chicken, lamb meatballs, and falafel. The real highlight is the spreads and toppings, hummus, harissa, tzatziki, roasted vegetables, pickled onions, and more which add layers of flavor and texture. It's easy to customize depending on whether you want something lighter or more filling. Portions are satisfying, though the cost can add up depending on your choices. Overall, CAVA is a reliable option when you're craving something flavorful but not too heavy. It's especially convenient for a quick lunch or casual dinner, and the customizable format makes it easy to switch things up each visit.
