CAVA

The man I had making my bowl was SO helpful when I told him I had a gluten allergy. He happily changed his gloves when I asked and he made sure he was the only one to touch my bowl. Although none of the items are marked GF. Also, I ended up getting glutened here despite the nice man’s effort.

**High cross contamination risk. I have eaten here only a couple of times, but I did pickup each time. Yesterday I decided to go inside and get my food through the regular line. I was with my coworkers who really wanted to eat there or I would have left after what I saw. I watched as the ladies working the line scooped things directly onto pitas, touching them with the spoon multiple times. Also, as the pitas moved down the line, the edge rolled over the top of the food containers that were right next to the board. This would prob be ok for people who are strictly gluten sensitive, but for anyone with Celiac, it could pose a huge issue. I asked the first girl to change her gloves and please grab me a different bowl (she had already grabbed one before I was able to ask her to change the gloves). She gave me attitude and was not happy about me asking her to change them. Everyone one else also changed their gloves for me as I went through the line, but I couldn’t stop noticing many points of potential cross contamination. Will not eat there again for sure.

Flower Mound location review!! The signage is very visible and clearly states what items are gluten free. You do have to be specific when you begin your order as the staff does not always understand they need to change their gloves before starting your Cava bowl. The food is excellent!

Great food. Greek/Mediterranean-style bowls/salads. Their serving style is a create-your-own bowl, similar to Chipotle. Most of their menu is already GF (except falafel, tabbouleh, pita/pita chips, and desserts). They have an allergen page on their website that is very helpful as well.

Okay I love cava but do not order on the app from this location if you have celiac. I have found singular pita crisps in my online bowl’s multiple times. This level of carelessness is not good for my health but if you go in person they will change their gloves and be more diligent.

Can't promise no cross contamination because pita is everywhere here. But you can order without it. I had a good experience!

Lots of options are Gluten Free. Only Pitas, Crisps, Falafels and desserts have gluten.

Not good signage, so they could improve that for ordering confidence and staff awareness.

Great value when you DIY a bowl to go! I got 3 lunches out of one bowl!

This new place is delicious. They have a full allergen menu online. The food is filling and so flavorful. I got the harissa avocado bowl as it comes and it was spicy and so good.
