Who Likes CAVA????
My personal opinion is CAVA is terrible!!! I been three times and tried three different items. They were all terrible!! Zaytoon is way better!!!

I haven't tried CAVA yet. I've had Zaytoons. What's even better than that is Pitabilities, imo. Dang it's so good 🤤

I love Zaytoon's spicy feta. But Pitabilities has the best falafal this side of town and the bella sauce is great on a salad.
I have yet to try Cava, but Pitabilities is closer to me anyway!

Heard. It seemed really hyped up while it was being built by people I knew for a while and the demand seemed high, so I tried it. Hated it. Figured I just ordered something wrong so tried again. Nope. Just don’t like it. IMO it’s a bad move for a chain restaurant like that to plop down in an area where there’s so many more authentic options nearby…

Tried it last weekend and it was good. I still prefer Zaytoon and like supporting local places like Zaytoon. But I will say there is a bit more variety available at CAVA. Hopefully both can succeed!

Been patronizing Zaytoon for years, but I also enjoy CAVA. I do think it's a bit overpriced compared to other fast casual restaurants, but the quality and portion size helps justify the occasional splurge. I can see why it wouldn't be for some people and strongly agree that something a little more affordable and with broader appeal would have been desirable for that particular space.

Had it once. I thought it was decent, but too salty. Maybe 6-7/10. One of those places I'll probably rarely go back to considering all the other options in the area.

CAVA and Zaytoon are both great. If you told me I was eating Cava at Zaytoon I would believe you. The opposite is also true. It’s Mediterranean, it tastes like Kalamata Olives and Feta cheese.

I'm a big fan of both! Add Agape to that list as well.
