I just had a legendary meal at Cava. The fresh fried pita breads were INSANEEEE. Thank you Daisy and Cat especially who put me on. Will definitely be back because of them and the food itself.

Amazing, I ate so much and felt healthy after, falafels. Not many seats only downsides. Very unique drinks.

Fast food with a Mediterranean twist. Service was good, despite it being busy. I got one of the bowls off the menu, rather than crafting my own and I enjoyed it. Easy walk from my hotel, but sadly Austin wasn't working that night.

I got lamb meatballs (that Drew, the guy who served us, recommended - he was very nice!) and they were a little spicy and good. They had just come out fresh and looked more tasty than the steak I had originally thought I was going to get. The bowl I got tasted fresh, I even finished the whole thing! I didn’t expect to since it looks so big, but I guess I was hungry.
Overall, it was good, I would give the a solid 4 stars. It seemed a bit pricey but it may be because I don’t come downtown often.
On game day it was pretty busy and the tables were kind of gross. It’s expected that the bathroom will also be gross on game day and this was no exception. I didn’t take off anything for that though since they were busy and they can’t always get to the bathroom when people are rude and get it dirty.
