" CAVA is a refreshing spot that should not be missed! With its vibrant decor and welcoming ambiance, this restaurant is a breath of fresh air. I ordered a Mediterranean bowl, and the mix of flavors from the grilled chicken and various toppings was amazing! Plus, I loved how they let me choose half and half options for my ingredients. While the price felt a little high to me, every bite was worth it. Excellent service, too, which made the experience even better! " (*Curated Review*)

" CAVA never fails to impress! I always go for something different each time, and I'm never disappointed. The flavors are bold, fresh, and well-balanced. My husband and I visited last week, and he raved about the spicy lamb meatballs. He said they're his new favorite! The service at this location has always been top-notch with staff eager to answer any questions and provide suggestions. I can say that CAVA has become our favorite Mediterranean spot in the city. The only downside is that it's sometimes crowded, and we have to wait for a table, but it’s worth it for the food we get! " (*Curated Review*)

" The first time I tried CAVA, I was blown away! The food was vibrant and very fresh. I ordered the spicy feta dip, and it was out of this world! The establishment had a nice clean vibe, and the seating arrangements were cozy. However, I had a little bit of a hiccup with the service; they forgot my side pita. Nonetheless, it didn’t ruin my experience too much. I will definitely return to explore more options! " (*Curated Review*)

" CAVA has become one of my favorite spots in NYC! Every time I come here, the staff is incredibly friendly and the food is undeniably delicious. The roasted vegetables are my favorite, and I love the garlic dressing. The ambiance is casual yet inviting, making it a great spot to grab a quick meal or relax with friends over dinner. The only downside is that it can get a bit crowded during lunch hours, so be prepared for a wait. But the food is definitely worth it! " (*Curated Review*)

" Let me tell you about my last visit to CAVA: I went in with great expectations after hearing so much buzz, and I was ready to indulge! The first impression was fantastic—the colorful ingredients lined up neatly looked like a feast for the eyes. I ordered a customized bowl with a mix of proteins, grains, and sauces. However, I felt like the portions were not as generous as I had hoped. While the flavors were fantastic, I walked away feeling a bit underwhelmed in terms of quantity for the price I paid. I do appreciate the quality ingredients, but I would love to see larger portions for that price point. Still, I'll probably come back to give it another try. " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited CAVA last week and wanted to share my experience. The food was good but not outstanding. I had the chicken and rice bowl, and while the chicken was cooked well, it lacked seasoning, making it feel a bit bland. The environment was pleasant, and the staff was courteous, but I expected a bit more punch with the flavor. It’s a busy place during lunch hours, and while I was able to find a seat, it got noisy quickly. I appreciate the healthy options but might opt for something different next time just to explore more flavors! " (*Curated Review*)

" Decided to check out CAVA after hearing rave reviews, and I think I need to join the fan club! I absolutely loved the flexibility of build-your-bowl concept. I tried the braised lamb with greens, and it was bursting with flavor—so tender! The environment felt cozy, which made it perfect for unwinding after a busy day. The only hiccup was that my order took a bit longer than expected, but the staff was kind enough to keep me updated. This place is definitely on my list for regular meals now! " (*Curated Review*)
