" I was visiting Austin and decided to check out CAVA. The atmosphere is quite lively, and the food is nothing short of amazing! I ordered a bowl with grilled veggies and their crazy feta, and wow, it was a match made in heaven. The staff was super helpful and even provided some recommendations. I would definitely visit again! " (*Curated Review*)

" Visiting CAVA was a pleasant surprise! The menu offers a lot of fresh Mediterranean options that are both healthy and delicious. I had a great vegan bowl, but I felt the pricing was slightly on the high side for lunch. Nevertheless, the quality of food made it worth it, and I'll likely return to try their signature dips. " (*Curated Review*)

" I went to CAVA based on recommendations, and it did not disappoint! The food was delicious and healthy, and I got to try so many flavors. The only thing I wish was different was that the sauce portions were a bit more generous. Service was quick and friendly. Definitely coming back! " (*Curated Review*)

" CAVA is a restaurant I’ll keep coming back to! I love how they take Mediterranean food and make it easily accessible with a quick serve style. Everything is so fresh and flavorful. The staff was super friendly and helpful, offering recommendations that made my meal even better. Highly recommend the falafel; it's one of the best I've had! " (*Curated Review*)

" My husband and I decided to give CAVA a try this weekend. The place is bustling, and you can tell people love it. We ordered a bowl and a pita to share. The falafel was fantastic, crunchy on the outside yet soft inside. Our only issue was that we didn't get enough sauce — we had to ask for more. Otherwise, the food was delightful. We'll definitely return to explore more menu items! " (*Curated Review*)

" First time visiting CAVA, and I was quite impressed! I had a lovely experience picking out my personalized bowl. The quality of their produce really stood out, and the spices were authentic to the Mediterranean touch. The service was great and quick. A lovely restaurant to consider if you're in the area! " (*Curated Review*)

" After hearing so much about CAVA, I finally decided it was time to go. I ordered a falafel bowl with all the toppings, and while it tasted good, I was expecting a bit more authentic Mediterranean zest. The staff was nice, but the wait time was longer than I’d hoped on a Friday afternoon. Overall, not a bad experience, but I may try another place next time. " (*Curated Review*)
