" CAVA offers a great selection of vegetarian and meat options. After my initial visit, they quickly became my regular stop for lunch during the workweek. Always fresh, full of flavor, and the staff is always eager to help. My favorite is the avocado bowl with a squeeze of lime—delicious! " (*Curated Review*)

" I took a friend to CAVA last week, and they loved it! The food was fresh but could benefit from a bit more seasoning. I ordered the lamb meatballs and while they were well-cooked, they couldn’t match my home recipe. Still, I had a great time and will return to try other menu items! " (*Curated Review*)

" CAVA's atmosphere is absolutely inviting, which makes it a hotspot for a friendly lunch. The staff went above and beyond to help me figure out what to order, and I ended up with a delightful bowl filled with fresh ingredients. Highly recommend this place for anyone who loves Mediterranean cuisine! " (*Curated Review*)

" I really wanted to love CAVA because of its reputation, and while the freshness is undeniable, I felt the service was not as attentive as I hoped it would be. However, the bowls are fun to make and very creative! I think I'll visit again soon and see if the experience improves. " (*Curated Review*)

" Not long ago I dropped into CAVA during lunch, and while the food was decent, the falafel could be improved; it was a bit on the softer side for my taste. However, their rice was fantastic and the service was quick and friendly, making the overall experience positive. Definitely worth a try for a healthy lunch! " (*Curated Review*)

" CAVA has become a highlight of my week! The food is consistently fresh and flavorful, and the service has been top-notch every time I visit. I particularly love the roasted chickpeas and how nicely they cook their greens. It is the kind of place that hard to resist going back to, and I often find myself bringing friends along to share the experience! " (*Curated Review*)

" I just had an incredible experience at CAVA! The staff were extremely kind and helpful, guiding me through my first bowl customization. I chose their grilled chicken and paired it with multiple toppings. Everything tasted so fresh and delicious. I will certainly come back and recommend it to others too! " (*Curated Review*)
