" Had an alright experience at Cava. The food was good but didn’t quite meet my expectations based on what I had heard. I had the bowl with chicken and it was a bit too saucy for my liking. The staff were helpful and friendly, and seating was nice, but some attention to meal balance could be beneficial. " (*Curated Review*)

" Cava! Where to start! This is hands down one of my favorite restaurants in Wilmington. I love their fresh Mediterranean offerings, the selection is fantastic! Everything is customizable, which accommodates my dietary needs perfectly. I always go for a grain bowl, and I appreciate how fresh and vibrant the ingredients are. Also, it's a perfect place to catch up with friends due to its relaxed atmosphere. I've never had a bad experience here; highly recommend! " (*Curated Review*)

" Cava has been my lunch spot for weeks now, and everything I try impresses me! The lentil bowl is nutritious and filling, while the staff is super friendly, making me feel welcome each time. It's one of the few places where I can get healthy food without sacrificing taste. However, it can be a bit pricey, but I believe it’s justified given the quality. Highly recommend it to anyone in search of healthy and tasty options! " (*Curated Review*)

" Cava never ceases to amaze me! I had the pleasure of interacting with the staff on my most recent visit, and they were not only knowledgeable about the menu but also so enthusiastic about the food! During this visit, I tried the lamb pita, and it was hands down the best I have had in quite some time. The pita was warm and fluffy, while the lamb was perfectly seasoned. I appreciate that they use high-quality ingredients that make each bite feel wholesome. The ambiance was also charming, perfect for a cozy dinner. Highly recommended for anyone who loves Mediterranean food! " (*Curated Review*)

" My last visit to Cava was pretty much what I expected—delicious Mediterranean food! I had the spicy chicken wrap, and while the wrap itself was good, it felt like it could have used more fillings. The atmosphere was charming, but service was a little slower than I’d like. It could be a good option for a quiet lunch, but I don't think I'd go back during peak hours. " (*Curated Review*)

" Cava’s location is cozy and inviting, which makes my visits very pleasant! I love their options for healthy Mediterranean food, especially the amazing dressings! However, I found the prices a bit on the higher side, so I tend to come in when I'm feeling indulgent. The service is friendly most of the time, but I did encounter a slower day when I visited last. Still, it’s fantastic overall, and I will return. " (*Curated Review*)

" Visiting Cava was an eye-opening experience for me regarding Mediterranean cuisine. I ordered their falafel bowl, which was tasty but didn't quite meet the hype. The falafel themselves were a bit dry, which was surprising since the rest of the ingredients were so fresh. The staff was polite and helped me navigate their extensive menu. While I enjoyed my meal, I think there's room for improvement in the preparation of certain items. Still, I'll consider giving them another shot! " (*Curated Review*)
