★★★★☆ 4.0 Ale M · Dec 2025

The atmosphere and environment are truly the standout here. The décor is beautiful, very thoughtfully done, and genuinely one-of-a-kind. It’s a unique space and absolutely worth visiting at least once just to experience the setting. The food, however, was just okay. It wasn’t bad by any means—it was good—but it also wasn’t particularly unique or memorable, especially compared to how special the space itself feels. The service was fine overall. That said, there were a couple of policies that really took away from the experience. The first was that every person in the party is required to order food. This became an issue since we were traveling with a toddler who had already eaten. Despite that, we were required to order from the kids’ menu and ended up paying $20 for a pasta dish that was

★★★★☆ 4.0 Shelley Bayer · Feb 2026

This was our first visit. As others have commented, the decorations are spectacular! I won’t post more pics as there are lots here already. Our waitress Adrianna was fantastic. Very friendly and accommodating. The food was tasty, but we’ve had meals just as good elsewhere for less money. Maybe they charge more to pay for the decorations.

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Joan Law Lowell · Nov 2025

The decorations were really amazing in every room, like floor to ceiling ornaments and glitter, but that didn't make up for slow service and only 2/4 meals were good. The filet was amazing and so was my daughter's rigatoni, but my son's pasta al forno and my husband's chicken parmesan (not pictured) weren't worth taking home. Service was so slow the appetizer came before our server brought us water. We paid for the atmosphere but won't go back.

An Unforgettable Anniversary at Cava! My husband and I celebrated our 12th wedding anniversary at Cava, and it was absolutely amazing from start to finish. Our server, Ben, gave us the best experience. He was friendly, attentive, and genuinely made us feel celebrated all night. The drinks were creative and delicious, the food was seasoned and cooked perfectly, and when it came time for dessert, everything looked so good we couldn’t decide. Ben helped us choose, and he was spot on. It was incredible! The atmosphere was so unique and magical. The upstairs rooftop had a fun Hocus Pocus theme, while the downstairs was completely Wicked-themed with full dining areas set up for Elphaba and Glenda. We didn’t even know those rooms existed until Ben told us to check them out and take pictures. S

★★★★★ 5.0 Kayla Hernandez · Jan 2026

We made reservations for cava for our New Year's Eve dinner. The atmosphere was amazing the food was amazing the decorations holy smokes great. My only thing that I would change is maybe setting up areas during a busy time like that to take photos. I noticed a lot of passageways being blocked by people wanting to take pictures and of course you want to take pictures it's absolutely gorgeous I took pictures. I just think the restaurant itself should make designated areas to be out of the way for people to take pictures. My other complaint was there was a 100% urine on the floor in the ladies room and a person that worked there came out of that bathroom before me. Being a server myself I believe that it is her responsibility to A. make sure the bathroom is clean and B. clean it up if it's no
