What is Cava

Cava is a fast-casual Mediterranean / Greek-inspired chain known for customizable bowls, fresh pita wraps, salads, mezze dips, and wholesome ingredients. Their concept revolves around letting you “build your own” — choosing base, proteins, toppings, sauces — or picking from curated bowls/pitas for convenience. Cava Menu+2wnam-cdn.menuweb.menu+2
