Full and happy.
CAVA is a great addition to the University area. They are right next to the Dunkin' Donuts and there is plenty of parking. Bathrooms are off on the side and are single occupant.
Like many others have mentioned, CAVA is a build your own joint. They offer bowls, salads, and pitas. I went with the salad. Down the line we went and I added braised lamb (extra charge), sauces, and veggies. Every meal comes with a mini pita. I went with the red roasted pepper hummus. My salad totaled about $12.
My salad was soooo good. Everything just tasted fresh. The portion size was huge and they were not stingy with the lamb. The hummus was delicious. The only downside is that I wish some of the veggies were better seasoned.
My coworker got a bowl with the yellow rice and she loved it. She also tried out some of the juice blends and didn't care for them.
Overall, I can see myself stopping by frequently. CAVA makes "clean" eating fun.
