“I’ve been to other Cava locations, but I must say this one is the cream of the crop. Normally my order is a bit complicated, but Zaniah, Christina, and boy Joe really looked out for us. They were personable and very funny. We will definitely be coming back! Thank you again Zaniah, Christina, and Joe you guys are the best!!!“

“I love the staff and the food is excellent. My bf and family love the roast beef sandwich. I get the soul of the day every day.Parking: There is parking out front but it gets pretty packed. I park in the back parking lot. It’s a short walk.Kid-friendliness: I take my nieces with my almost every weekend. They love Jerry and Ornella.“

“Went here today for a business lunch based on a recommendation and we were not disappointed! Everything from excellent, from the Server, appetizers and to the massive platter. We are planning on coming back very soon!! Great environment and FAST service.“

“Husband and I had an excellent lunch at Cafe Baladi. We shared the appetizer sampler; then he had one of the platters and I had the special which was a lamb and chickpea casserole/stew... The stew was so remarkable and complex with flavors of cardamom, cinnamon, and a bit of heat in a rich sauce with rice... Just amazing. I've now been trying to replicate the dish at home... I wish it was a regular item on the menu... Or the chef would share his recipe with me! Wonderful!“

“Waiter was great....humus ...great variety and absolutely delicious....I had the lamb dish and it was good...pulled lamb....my niece had chicken and my sister said it was quite succulent.Dhe had a fish dish that she ate completely and like. Price was great we had a flourless chocolate cake that we all shared and did not finish. It was quite rich. Good experience..we got there right after opening but it filled up quickly. It's worth a try.Vegetarian options: Not a wide variety for dinner...only pasta“

“Was shopping in Ardmore the other day and stumbled upon lentil & co which had just opened - and I’m so glad I did! I ordered two lentil bowls to go and they were delicious, healthy and reasonably priced. The atmosphere was great, and the owners and staff were so lovely - I will definitely be coming back!!“

“Good food at a good price. I eat a lot of hummus and this Aria's is really good.I also got the Salmon Kebab. The salmon was yummy but, in my opinion, under-spiced and too oily. The rice it came with was phenomenal, though.Really nice staff too.“

“This is our second time grabbing take-out from here, and it most definitely NOT be our last.First, the food:My son and I both got the lamb gyro. The lamb was some of the most tender and flavorful I have ever had (and I sous vide my lamb). Just fantastic.We also got the mini sampler.The hummus was a bit lacking in flavor, but was still good and well made.The falafel were perfectly cooked (so rare in my experience!) crispy and delectable.The dolmas are a hair too tender (I like more of a firm leaf) but the flavor more than made up for it.The Baba Ghanouj was a show stealer of the sampler. The signature char flavor was outstanding. More than good enough to eat by itself.My favorite of the night was the lentil soup. The aroma alone was mouth watering. Overall it has a wonderful depth of flavor. The time and love that went into making it was very evident.Lastly I want to make sure to mention the owners…they are so friendly! Both times now I was greeted with genuine warmth and hospitality on the phone and in person. These two are doing things the right way.I would absolutely recommend you give this place a try if you have not. Such wonderful food being made by just as wonderful people!“

“This was such a nice surprise! The place looks like any old building in a residential neighborhood. It is a tiny place to order Armenian soujuk (sausages), and lahmajun (seasoned meat toppings on flat bread). Soujuk is salty, because you have to pan fry them and either mix with tomatoes or eat with eggs and bread. Lahmajun comes in a pack of ten, and it is truly a bang for your money! If you go to any Middle Eastern markets and buy frozen lahmajun you will easily pay a lot more and have them not taste that good. This place is family owned so the service is friendly“

“My coworkers and I absolutely LOVE this place! All of the food is delicious and the people who work there are always so nice, accommodating and welcoming! We drive past other Greek restaurants and will willingly follow the olive tree wherever they go!“

“Called for a pick up. They were very busy. Took my order and gave me an estimated 20 minutes until I picked up the pizza. Right on time.Well, my Mom and I got a large white pizza with mushrooms and spinach and another LG white pizza with mushrooms and onions for my sister.The pizza was excellent. Definitely want to go back while I'm still in town. Customer service was very fast and efficient, and very pleasant staffParking: The parking is in front of the place and around the corner.“

“The healthiest and most delicious food! I buy my lunch there every day. Everything is always 100% fresh, packed with flavor/fresh herbs and beans and made from scratch. Tons of vegan options and the sweetest and most accommodating owners and staff!Vegetarian options: Tons of great plant-based options!“

“Friendly, clean, and delicious. I’m not a picky person, so when I saw that they finally opened an Halal spot in Franklin Mills mall, I was hype. We went here before the movies and the girls were so attentive and nice. Highly recommended. Will come back and it’s my first time!“

“Cava is my ALL time favorite restaurant. The food was so amazing!!!! Well cooked, very fresh and tasty. The customer service was splendid. The lady was so nice to me. Her name tag said Asia and she showed me great customer service and made my trip worth it along with my amazing meal.“

“This restaurant is top notch. When my close friend lived in PA, we would drive from NY and then an extra 50 minutes just to eat at this place. Everything is delicious, atmosphere is nice, prices are incredible. If I didn't live on Long Island I would dine there every day.Kid-friendliness: Very family oriented. Intimate environment.“

“Overall the restaurant is good. The food is tasty too. The reason for the lower star is due to lack of vegetarian options, if you can call it an option. Between three of us vegetarian dining at the place, we could only get 2 options for which 1 they were able to make it vegetarian. Yes they have salad and pizza option, but if that’s what anyone thinks vegetarians eat, good luck trying to win repeat customers. I expect better.Vegetarian options: Not many options“

“Great server, excellent food, however, was disappointed when seated on the banquet side of restaurant despite having a reservation made several days in advance! This was discussed with Manager and supposedly rectified for reservations to be made in the future!“

“I had the chance to visit the Greek Taverna restaurant and I had great experience, I loved the cozy space and not to mention the food. They are all so delicious and else the restaurant is one of my favorites! I’m sure You will love it too!“

“Stopped by here for a quick bite while on the road; the spot reminds me of my local college town go-to lunch spot! They had many different options from bowls to wraps and a food bar to customize your order too. The food was really good and authentic, it looks like a family owned spot based on the cooks, the food was definitely made with lots of love! The serving for the price was well worth it and the place itself was really clean!“

“I absolutely love Cava! The food is consistently delicious, and the service is top-notch. The atmosphere is cozy and inviting, making it the perfect place to enjoy a meal with friends and family. The staff is friendly and attentive, making sure that every visit is a pleasant one.“

“Not only was the Lady that took the order over the phone so nice, respectful, she had the most beautiful energy..in helping and assisting Me and my Aunt who is from a different State!The food that I ordered was the best rice dish I have had thus far! I love Halal food! I had the fish ,shrimp, over rice!10 stars from Me..“

“Ordered a wrap online my fault for not checking upon pickup, but the bag was stapled and I was in a rush. Did not get a wrap :( it was too out of the way for me to come back once I was in my office realizing the mistake.EDIT: the support was super prompt and reached out offering store credit within hours of this review. That's really nice and appreciated.“

“Delicious and top quality food. Anything you can think of is served here and it is always superb. You must try their hummus and their beef dishes. Also, shawarma and salads are amazing. Authentic Mediterranean cuisine, served in hearty portions, and incredible customer service. Just eat here and you will surely be happy with your experience.“

“This place gets 5 stars from me! The woman serving me didn’t speak the best English and seemed embarrassed about it, but she had a gentle smile, and a pleasant vibe. The food was great (better than CAVA in my humble opinion) and I would recommend it to anyone passing through the Conshohocken area.“

“Compared to the price of food these days, thought cost of lunch here was reasonable. Large box of falafels, plentiful rice, falavorful, juicy roasted tomato and choice of salad (I chose the fattoush) along with pita bread and a fountain soda for $17. Enough actually for two. For those who might be concerned, not really spicy but tasty nevertheless. Well cooked. Make sure to ask for extra yogurt sauce. And you can get hot sauce to go in a small container if you ask.“

“Great quick meal or fast food option restaurant. Lots of choices along the Mediterranean or Greek themed food line. Similar to Chipotle as far how you can order and select what you want but the food quality is so much better. This place was quite fast and accurate with our orders. The tables were clean and nice. Recommended.“

“Let me start by saying I love the food at The Halal Guys so much that I ate there pretty much 4/4 nights a week for a year straight after work before trimming it back. I've never done that with any other restaurant. The gentleman I spoke to leaving the restaurant the other night said he drove 40 minutes to come enjoy the food. All of the food is very fresh. They are always cooking fresh chicken and beef. All the veggies are a great addition to the platter along with the fresh rice that is always being replenished. The hummus is very good and when you add the chili based hot sauce and mix it up, it's heaven. For those who can't handle the heat, there's their very popular "white sauce". King of Prussia is always very busy. Please do not let "Bobby Bobby" deter you from going to The Halal guys. He clearly doesn't understand the restaurant business......no crime. Look at his bowl. It has chicken and rice ONLY. Evidently he thinks since he is afraid of eating veggies that the rest of his bowl should be filled with extra meat. Sorry Bobby Bobby; that is not how any restaurant works. This place gives a ton of food. I rarely finish my small bowl and have never ordered a large one. In this business you could have the best product and location but take away top notch customer service and a highly dedicated GM/owner and get ready for your "Grand Closing". Caesar has been the GM at KOP for years now and I've never seen him have a bad day. He always has a smile on his face and treats all of his customers with the utmost respect. His customer service is exceptional. This is extremely rare. How do I know this? 35 years in the restaurant industry. Hail Caesar!!“

“The food was extremely delicious. However, the cashier/ server today was very mean. She seemed very anxious, and her customer service skills were totally disrespectful. I also witnessed her be that was towards another customer whom then left and decided not to gain service. Originally I decided that I wouldn’t go back, however my friend advised me that it was just her spirit, and normally the service and staff is very nice. I wouldn’t go back...if she was the server again. She also rudely referred to another possible staff member as “he can’t understand you” instead of saying “that English is not his first language. As I mentioned earlier...”the food was delicious and cooked very well...”“
