    The food was great but the music was a little too loud to talk to the employees across the counter to order. It made the process a little frustrating.

    This is our routine stop after we land at the airport for awhile now and every time we’re met with kind and wonderful service! Love Cava but this is our favorite Cava place, hands down!

    Khoa was the absolute best!! My husband and I were BEYOND impressed with his kindness and customer service! He greeted everybody, offered to pick up another gentleman’s tray, and overall had such a positive attitude! Give him a RAISE!!

    Order for pick up through the drive thru. Somehow the team forgot CHICKEN on a Chicken and rice bowl. Then CAVA makes it nearly impossible to get the problem addressed. They do love to tell you how your feedback will help them, but don't seem to want to help you. Love the food, when made correctly, but not the hassle.

    This CAVA location has a serious staffing issue that has gone unaddressed for far too long. There are never enough employees behind the bar to handle the steady flow of customers, which leads to extremely long lines and excessive wait times—even during hours that shouldn’t be busy. It’s frustrating to see guests waiting while only one or two overworked staff members try to manage an entire line on their own. What’s even more concerning is that CAVA appears to have removed this location from Yelp, likely to escape the growing number of negative reviews. That’s an attempt to manipulate public perception rather than fix real problems. Hiding poor feedback doesn’t make the service better—it just makes the company look dishonest. If CAVA wants to maintain customer trust, it needs to properly staff its stores and face honest reviews instead of trying to erase them. Until that happens, I’d recommend taking your business elsewhere.
