Cava - Virginia Beach

"This restaurant offers delicious vegan dishes with a wide variety of vegetables to choose from. They clearly label all items that are not vegan, so you can easily avoid choosing the wrong product. This review was updated on July 26, 2021."

The sauces and hummus offered at this restaurant are amazing. Anyone who has tried store-bought hummus will notice the superior quality here. Cava offers unlimited toppings (excluding avocado) such as double salad, double quinoa or cauliflower tabbouleh, etc. The price for the amount of food you get is reasonable. However, I found that the quality of the roasted vegetables and potatoes was lacking. They were not cooked evenly and lacked flavor and texture that good roasted vegetables should have. It reminded me of my early attempts at cooking vegetables at home. The falafel also seemed tasteless to me, although this may not be noticeable if you plan to load up on toppings.

I ordered the Super Greens salad with Falafel and various toppings. Compared to the Chesapeake location, the portion size and amount of toppings given at the VB location were significantly smaller. The salad was tasty, but I was disappointed by the skimpy portions and felt like I didn't get my money's worth. I'll give them one more chance to see if this was just a one-time incident.

This was my first time ordering from this restaurant. The process was simple and easy, and the food was delicious. Despite the nasty weather last week, I chose curbside pick up and the young man who brought out my order was very kind. Thank you for providing a great first-time experience.

I enjoyed the fresh and delicious food at this restaurant. There were many great choices on the menu. The variety of drinks available was also impressive.
