We were invited to Cava Wine Bar, and we were excited to be in one so famous restaurant between Harvest, Scena, and Southbay. We loved Southbay, and we had very high expectations, and they didn't disappoint us. Every dish was delicious, perfect portions. Cocktails are strong and flavorful. 4 starts only because the desert menu wasn't very impressive, but mango and raspberry sorbet are delicious.

So upset to see they wrote my last name wrong- who wrote "shit" on the bag? I also provided you my first name on the phone order, you can just put that on the bag...The food is great as always But this bag really pissed me off...

Great food, drinks, ambience. Rustic yet modern and clean look. We ate : margarita pizza, shrimp with mash and asparagus, linguini and clams ended with b read pudding. Cocktails also yummy. We met our friends here for lunch. First time here, and Patty was the best. She had great suggestions, was very attentive and friendly. We will definitely come back to visit. Thanks Patty for great customer service!!

Cava accommodated our family for a memorial lunch yesterday. It was a perfect private room, the servers were wonderful and the food was extraordinary. The shaved brussel sprouts over a risotto cake, butternut squash ravioli and tiramisu were absolutely delicious. Cava made our day complete! Grazie!

Food was not hot when it came out, consistently across all 4 people that dined! Red wine served at room temperature - took away from the taste Seafood Risotto lacked depth of flavor, as did food in general

Cava is a staple for a great meal in a great atmosphere. What makes Cava special is the staff...the wait staff, management, and total vibe is special. Have never had anything but a wonderful experience here!

We go to Cava a lot. But not on a Saturday night just the two of us. It was so unbelievably loud. . We couldn't even talk. It is the last time we will go on a Saturday night if it's just two of us. Not pleasant.

The mussels weren't very good at all, but the Tuna Tartar was really disappointing, and it was served with potatoe chips. There is no wonder the place was empty, and yet still, the service was beyond slow. They need to pick up their game.

Cava is one of our favorites! The menu is varied, the food is consistently delicious, and the service is always attentive. We sat in the back room which was away from the noise level and very pleasant. The outdoor area is very nice, but it was raining!

House wines and service were great, but our pasta entrees were extremely salty.

I recently are at Cava. Despite it having good food, I was shocked when I read they have been ordered to pay back tips to their wait staff. For that, I offer 0 stars
