" Dining at CAVA was a pleasant surprise! The variety they offer is fantastic, and the flavors were authentic, particularly the zesty dressings and hummus. I enjoyed every bite of my bowl, and the atmosphere felt inviting. My only suggestion would be wait times—they were off during my visit. However, the food quality makes it worth the wait! I can't wait to try more combinations next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" Just had the best experience at CAVA! I tried their kanapés, and they were out of this world! So flavorful and light. Plus, I could select all my favorite toppings in my grain bowl, which is exactly what I needed after a long day. The staff was accommodating but definitely overwhelmed during peak hours. Regardless, I can't wait to come back for another tasty meal! " (*Curated Review*)

" Really enjoy coming to CAVA! The build-your-own bowl concept is excellent, and I get to mix all my favorite Mediterranean ingredients. The lentils were a lovely addition, plus they have a great selection of dips and sauces. My only complaint is that sometimes the flavor of the chicken can be inconsistent, but overall, it's worth it for the freshness. Always leave happy and feeling light! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had an enjoyable experience at CAVA! The concept is similar to Chipotle, but I appreciated the Mediterranean twist. I felt the flavors were quite authentic, and the food was fresh. My only complaint was that during busy hours, the service could feel a bit neglectful – it would be nice if they could be more consistent. " (*Curated Review*)

" CAVA is a delightful gem for anyone who enjoys Mediterranean cuisine! The build-your-own bowl is my favorite feature. I always leave feeling full and satisfied. The only downside was a rather chaotic experience with the staff during my visit; at times they seemed overwhelmed. Hopefully, their management can improve that in the future because the food quality is too good not to enjoy under better circumstances! " (*Curated Review*)

" Visiting CAVA was an incredible experience! I decided to build my own bowl, and the selection was remarkable! The spicy chicken combined with the roasted veggies and garlic dressing was divine. The freshness really stood out, and it felt good to choose healthier options. I appreciated the clean atmosphere and how friendly the staff was, although they seemed a bit rushed during busy hours. Will definitely be returning for more deliciousness! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited CAVA expecting a fantastic Mediterranean experience, and I'm glad to say it did not disappoint! The ingredients were very fresh, and I especially loved the roasted vegetables and garlic dressing. It was evident that they prioritize the quality of their food, which I appreciate. The only downside was the slower service at peak hours. Nonetheless, I will make this one of my regular spots for quality Mediterranean food. " (*Curated Review*)
