" I went to CAVA expecting amazing food based on the reviews, and I was not let down! I tried the Harissa Avocado bowl and it was delicious—fresh ingredients, vibrant flavors! The staff were very helpful in suggesting additions. The only downside was the wait time due to it being busy, but the food was worth it. The prices are reasonable for the quality you get. " (*Curated Review*)

" What a gem CAVA is! I went in with my boyfriend and we were blown away by how fresh everything was. I got the spicy lamb and he had the harissa chicken, both of which were rich in flavor. The place was cozy and had a lovely vibe. Service was generally fast, but at times a bit busy. I highly encourage trying their pita chips; they were delightful! " (*Curated Review*)

" If you're looking for fresh Mediterranean food, CAVA is the place to be. I ordered a falafel bowl which was packed with flavor and freshness.

" CAVA is definitely worth the hype! I loved having the opportunity to build my own bowl. The chicken was flavorful, and the portion sizes are quite generous for the price. The only thing that threw me off was how long the line was during lunch, but it moves fast. The staff were attentive and friendly all the while! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a splendid meal at CAVA last evening. I opted for the Greek salad with chickpea topping, and it was incredibly fresh and filling. The bonus drink selections are impressive too; I had the strawberry citrus drink, which was delightfully refreshing! The service was kind and helpful. This place truly stands out as a healthy fast-food option. " (*Curated Review*)
