We have shared our review of Cava in prior entry with rave review. Today we actually dive in pass the cookie and devour in class & style the Steak + Harissa bowl. In our efforts to save money, it was an act of mid-hunger, yet a contribution to small to medium sized business in the downtown Austin region well worth the dish.
We can’t recall our last review in regards to reflected stars, however, today we are all living and learning collectively and the Steak + Harissa bowl with added team engagement leaves us ALL with a new perception as we walk out of the doors back onto Congress Ave..
Stay in the Fight!

Working on a Saturday and having a late lunch and nothing seemed appetizing from my restaurant search on google, until I spotted the downtown Austin CAVA location was just walking distance.
Walked into a quiet, clean dining room, and no line. MYKA helped me out. She’s friendly and quick…and she put the right amount of dressing on my bowl.
Shout out to MYKA and the team working this afternoon. This was a nice treat.
EAT HERE!😊

10/10, great service! I had a Strawberry Steak salad and it was AMAZING, great flavor and extremely fresh, perfect for the heat of summer. I must also thank one of the workers, Myka, for making the cucumber drink I was having, terrific flavor and just on point!
