Cava Italian Restaurant

We had read some bad reviews about the food but honestly I do not understand how that was possible. The food was delicious and I would recommend anybody who likes calamari to order the calamari appetizer. It was the best I've ever had and several people at our table of six absolutely agreed. It is decorated to the nines and so worth the trip!!

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 simply buttered noodles, which was very disappointing for the price.

The second policy was even more confusing. When dessert was brought out, we asked for the check so we could eat and head out, and our server told us she couldn’t provide the check until we were completely finished with dessert. That felt unrealistic and unnecessary, and I’ve never encountered that before.

Our server herself was pleasant and fine overall—possibly new, as she didn’t seem very confident with explaining the policies—but the rules themselves felt rigid and oddly enforced.

Overall, while the atmosphere alone makes it worth visiting once, we probably won’t be returning. The food didn’t justify the experience, and the policies detracted from what could have been a much more enjoyable visit.

First time here and wow — the decorations were absolutely out of this world. Every room had a different theme, and it’s honestly crazy how much effort and creativity the restaurant and staff put into decorating. The food was really good, the service was quick, and the whole experience was fun and memorable. Definitely worth checking out.

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. Such a thoughtful touch that made the night even more special.

Everything, the service, food, drinks, and creative decor all made it a night we’ll never forget. We can’t wait to come back!
