By far the worst falafel from Florida to Michigan! I ordered 2 falafel bowls, a kids meal with falafel and 2 drinks…all for under $40! The service was good, but 2 ladies who I asked about the kid’s menu admitted that they didn’t know what was on the menu! SMH. Then I was told that I had to pay extra for spring mix because it’s not included with the kids meal…only a selection of 3 particular items/sides are included with a protein…although the store menu states that it’s “A mini version of our build-your-own…” So a regular bowl was suggested instead. (The cashier later fixed this issue). My youngest only wanted the rice, spring mix (power greens) and falafel…which was inedible! The number of items/sides and the exact items/sides included or available with the kids meal should be stated on

Let me start by saying the food here is AMAZING. I fell in love with CAVA the very first time I tried it, and honestly, they’ve become my go-to over any of their competitors. I come to this location whenever I’m in the area, even though I live about 20–25 minutes away it’s that worth it. The food is always fresh, flavorful, and consistent. This spot is almost always busy, and there’s usually a line, which says a lot. The only downside is that the staff isn’t always the friendliest. Maybe it’s because they’re constantly slammed and don’t get much downtime, but it’s definitely noticeable. Overall, I love CAVA. I just really wish they’d open another location closer to Margate, Coconut Creek, or Coral Springs so people in those areas (including me!) have another convenient option without the

This owner of this location should heavily review operation especially in the evening hours. This franchise would have way more revenue coming in if they did not have the people they have running this place not during business hours. This cava always have the line up out the door and it’s not for a good reason. It because there is too much talking and not enough working going on. Everyone is visibly upset and while this is the best choice of food in this area .. the wait manages to have a lot of customers heading out the door. Not to mention the staff refuses to make more food and tell customers they ran out, out of pure laziness. There’s only 1 person working the front of the line. Causing a significant delay in service. It’s horrible. Hire new people. A word of advise to management:?Ple

I am extremely disappointed with my experience at CAVA. I paid nearly $40 for a bowl and received what looks like scraps at the bottom of the container. The portion size was completely unacceptable for the price. The bowl was barely filled, it was no lettuce and rice, and the protein and toppings were minimal at best. The photos speak for themselves this does not reflect the quality or value CAVA promotes. When customers are paying premium prices, we expect premium portions and consistency. Instead, I felt shorted and honestly taken advantage of. For $40, I should not be staring at the bottom of my bowl after a few bites. Very disappointing experience and not worth the money.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Salad lovers, this one’s elite. As a Level 7 Google Reviewer with past reviews reaching 70,000+ views, I don’t post lightly—and this bowl earned it. I ordered the spicy honey chicken on a Splenda salad base with mixed roasted veggies, and it delivered on every level. The chicken strikes that rare balance of sweet heat that’s flavorful, juicy, and intentional—not overpowering, just right. The date vinaigrette deserves real recognition. It’s smooth, lightly sweet, and grounding, pulling the entire bowl together with depth and balance. Nothing feels accidental here. And do not skip the cinnamon sugar pita bread with honey. Warm, soft with a light crisp, and perfectly drizzled—it’s the ideal finish. Sweet, comforting, and the kind of add-on that turns a good meal into a memorabl
