Food Quality and Service Did Not Meet Expectations:
I’m honestly very upset about my experience here.☹️
My friend placed an online pickup order for me, and when I arrived, the order was ready—but that’s about the only thing that went right. I’ve eaten CAVA many times and always enjoyed it, which is why this visit was so frustrating and disappointing.
I asked for DOUBLE pita chips with my veggie falafel bowl. What I got did not look fresh at all. The chips were overly burned, tasted old, and had a bad oily smell. This is not what CAVA is supposed to be.
On top of that, the pickled onions I ordered were missing, and there was no tzatziki added at all. None of the toppings I specifically requested were included.
I also ordered half sweet potatoes and half falafel. Instead, I received only one falafel, and the sweet potatoes were undercooked, hard, and clearly not prepared properly. If I order half and half, I expect half and half—not whatever was thrown in the bowl.
I requested extra Greek Skhug and extra garlic dressing. The containers I received were tiny and only half filled. When I politely asked for another one, I was told no. Other locations have never made an issue about this, so why is this place cutting corners?
This is not rocket science. ♀️If a customer pays for something, they should receive it—fresh, properly cooked, and in the correct portion. I paid full price, not half price, so why am I getting half portions and poor quality? ♀️
Order #: 6089999472
I have photos of the food and receipt to document everything.
I’m not writing this just to complain—I’m writing this because the quality and service at this location need serious attention. Customers should not feel like standards are being compromised.
This is not just about one bad meal—it’s about customer experience. Your employees need better training to ensure:
• Orders are prepared correctly and fully (double portions actually delivered).
• Ingredients are fresh and properly cooked.
• Extra sauces and sides are provided as requested, not denied.
• Staff pays attention to customer instructions, even for simple things.
If you don’t fix these basic things, your business will lose loyal customers like me. I’m giving this feedback seriously because I want to see CAVA maintain the quality I’ve loved in the past.
As a goodwill gesture, offering reward points or some form of compensation for customers who get bad service goes a long way—it encourages us to come back and shows you care about improving.
Very disappointed. I would rate this experience 1.5 out of 5.

Strawberry Citrus drink is yummy! I get a grains and greens bowl with brown rice, chicken, roasted red pepper hummus, crazy feta, corn, cucumber mix, fiery broccoli, pickled red onions, and a spoon of feta crumbles. I get garlic dressing and balsamic vinaigrette dressing. CHEFS KISS reasonably priced for the quality and flavor!

Terrible customer service! Don’t bother ordering online. I came 5 min after it was supposed to be finished and was told “Its gonna be another 10 to 15 minutes. Sorry we’re kind of backed up.”
I came for a 7pm pickup and received my food at 7:30. Meanwhile, anyone who just walked in is getting their food immediately.
Went to fill my drink and both choices I paid for online were empty. See pic for reference. After confirming with the cashier that everything was correct, I arrived home to find that my order had been botched.

We came in 1 pm. Great fresh food! Clean atmosphere. The guy who took our order was in a hurry and didn’t look like he wanted to be there. Its was just me and my friend and no one else was on line. He kept saying what else, what else, what else, what else, what else. Ruined our experience for good food. The cashier was polite and accommodating.

I love cava, especially this location, tons of outdoor seating, a great ambiance, and such a great location near all my favorite grocery shops. It’s a great place to grab some food, the food is always hot, and fresh, the service is great, and as far as gluten free options they’ve got plenty!

the white guy with brown hair working at cava on december 10 at 1:30pm was genuinely the reason for the best experience ive ever had at cava. he made sure i got a suitable amount of topping for everything, and went out of his way to get me pita crisps even though they were out. he was seriously the goat and ill never forget him. please give him a raise
