    Not sure how long this location has been open, but the food was delicious and fresh. Needs more access from parking lot and more decor.

    I recently visited Cava and was blown away by the exceptional quality of their Mediterranean-inspired ingredients; everything from the grilled chicken to the vibrant crazy feta felt incredibly fresh and flavorful. The staff truly elevated the experience, greeting me with genuine smiles and providing helpful recommendations throughout the ordering process. It is rare to find a fast-casual spot where the team is so consistently friendly and attentive. If you are looking for a nutritious, delicious meal paired with top-tier service, I highly recommend stopping by.

    The food was so flavorful and delicious!! The workers were extremely friendly and kind, they didn't make me feel rushed at all. I had the falafel crunch bowl (I think that's what is was.) it was a vegetarian option. I highly recommend Cava!!

    CAVA in Asheville is a fantastic place for fresh, customizable Mediterranean bowls and pitas. The ingredients are flavorful and healthy, and there are plenty of vegetarian and vegan options to choose from. The staff were friendly and helpful, and even with a line the service moved quickly. Whether you’re grabbing a quick lunch or a light dinner, this spot delivers consistently tasty food with a healthy twist.

    Enjoyed the food. Staff were friendly but had trouble hearing me over the background noises. Basically a chipotle with different flavors. Not quite the full Mediterranean flavors you would get in a suit down restaurant.. but still flavorful. Spent $90 for a family of 4. Don't know how 4 $15 or less meals and 4 $3 drinks made it that much. But they also didn't give me a receipt. Not sure if this is the normal but there was almost no seating available and long lines. In the future I would ask more about charges and try to avoid busy times.
