Cava - Potomac

Cabin John location is probably my second most visited Cava location. It is close to the family and often the healthy choice that my niece prefers for lunch. Pretty much like my homecoming. Efficient. Clean. The staff is friendly. I can get my favorites as I like it. Parking is a bit hectic because it is in Cabin John, but at least Cava is on one end with parking next to Tuckerman Lane. This location has a more beautiful terrace to sit on, but plenty of space if you are for indoors. With the pandemic I did curbside pickup and went through to get the execution.

Cava food is fresh and delicious. It is also very fast to buy with a line system to Chipotle.

It's really quite good overall, but the food is just lacking a little something I can't put my finger on.

This restaurant is our favorite spot for Cava. Parking can be difficult due to the other stores nearby. Ordering and customizing our bowl is quick and easy, and the food is always fresh and delicious. Our favorite ingredients to add to our bowl are hummus, chicken meatballs, pita chips, roasted corn, tomatoes, onions, cabbage slaw, and yogurt dill dressing. We also enjoy getting a side of crispy pita chips as a snack. Takeout service is fast, making it convenient for us to come back regularly.

We visited this restaurant on a weeknight when it was not very busy. Our three bowls were prepared quickly. The Tahini Caesar Bowl was our favorite, followed by the Green and Grains Bowl with Grilled Chicken, which had a good combination of healthy ingredients. The grilled meatballs in the Grains bowl were a bit dry.
