For the Richardson location,
I’ve ordered from here a few times. The first time there was a small piece of pita chip in it. The second and third, I was fine.
This last time, I found about 3 long pieces of pita chips in it.
I would not eat here.

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.

Upon ordering I asked if he could use fresh gloves as I have celiac and not only did he do so, he also washed his hands and seemed unbothered about it. My Chicken & Rightrice bowl was delicious and I had no symptoms of cross contact.

I originally liked this place a lot after eating here a few times with no reaction but the staff started getting really irritated with my requests and simply just not listening to me (i.e. telling them to change their gloves and then turning around to touch the pita… then having to ask them again to change their gloves). They usually give me a hard time there now and I’ve noticed when I go with friends there is a lot of cross contamination happening before the food ever hits the line. I’m super bummed because this place tastes so great, so I learned to make it for myself at home instead :)

Build your bowl as you move through the line. Everything was gluten free except the pita bread. Notified our server and she immediately washed her hands, changed her gloves, wiped everything down and then personally made our bowls start to finish. Really great experience.

I’ve eaten here a few times and the staff does a great job changing gloves, using clean utensils, and making the whole process seamless for never me when ordering. I usually get the black lentils, plain hummus, chicken, and avocado. Delicious and healthy!
