" I’m incredibly satisfied after dining at CAVA! The atmosphere felt fresh and vibrant, paired with very attentive staff. I built my own bowl and selected plenty of fresh toppings. However, the only downside was the bowl could have been more generously filled. Overall, great experience, and I would eagerly recommend them to others. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had high hopes for this place but was slightly let down on my visit. The food was decent but not as fresh as I expected. I ordered the chicken bowl and while the flavors were there, it felt a bit dry. The service was friendly, but it took a bit longer than expected. Overall, I might give it another shot but not anytime soon. " (*Curated Review*)

" While the food generally has a reputation for being delicious, my recent experience was mixed. I ordered a falafel bowl thinking it would be crisp and fresh, but it felt a bit stale. The service was friendly, but it took longer than necessary to prepare my meal. I do appreciate the healthy options available—just wish my bowl matched expectations. " (*Curated Review*)

" Every visit to CAVA is an adventure waiting to happen! The freshness of the ingredients puts other places to shame, and I appreciate the consistent quality. The service is only topped by the incredible flavors! Fun to take family and friends to explore the different bowl combinations together! " (*Curated Review*)

" CAVA is definitely on my list of favorites! Each bowl I've made has had fresh and authentic flavors. I always go for the spicy chicken, and it's consistently fantastic. I'm also vegetarian and find plenty of options that suit my diet. It's such a joy to have a restaurant that focuses on real ingredients. I've had no complaints about service either! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a pleasant experience at CAVA today. The rich flavors of the falafel were commendable, paired nicely with the dipping sauces I chose. The wait staff was also prompt, yet sometimes felt rushed. The restaurant was busy during lunch hours, but it maintained a welcoming vibe which I appreciated. Looking forward to coming back soon. " (*Curated Review*)

" I stopped by CAVA during a busy lunch hour and was prepared to wait, but the line moved quickly. The food was fresh and delicious! I opted for the falafel with extra drizzle of tahini sauce, which enhanced the whole experience. My only complaint was that my bowl could have had slightly more portion size, considering the price, but overall, it was a satisfying meal. " (*Curated Review*)
