I haven't eaten there in several years but it DESTROYED chipolte and several other fast casuals in the area when I did. Just way better macros, much fresher veggies, and more appetizing presentation. Everything else has gotten worse the past few years so maybe it has too but it was definitely the best in its bracket circa 2020
@@kevinwang1211 The Bridgewater location? O boy. 1. Constantly out of ingredients. 2. Long lines due to inefficiency with workers - You'll notice 1-2 workers producing the bowls while 1 of them doesn't know what they're doing. 3. Takeout inefficiency - App will give specified time but order won't be ready for 20-30 min over. You'll notice a crowd of people waiting for takeout. 4. Staff Turnover - one Sunday in late spring, they had 2 workers working. They continued to take in online orders. They eventually turned customers away and gave refunds on takeout orders. The staff is completely new since then. This has to do with all the ingredients Cava carries, requires a lot of prep especially for busy locations like Bridgewater. I live within 5 min of this location and wish management would figure it out here. I want Cava to succeed, I hold the stock and their food, when finally made with all ingredients requested, is tremendous. I was there this Monday and still had issues :(.
Order through their app for pickup ended up being more than $18 with no extra add ons whatsoever. Meat portions were disappointing for that kinda price. They said they didn't RAISE the price making it a good value. Thats laughable😂. Won't be back!
@@AL14 No but I think you A re L ost A L. I did comment on what was said in the video in regard to 'Value'. Pay attention or pay too much it's up to you
Finally someone says it waaaay overhyped. Same happened to me small portions weird flavors and the people were unhelpful. If you ask them a question they just point to the sign and just say read the menu.
investors have invested in cava so that is why they love cava. why else would they be called investors then? as if health food can be cheaper that junk food in a capitalist system
Never heard of them. In Chicago we've already got stuff like this, Benjyahuda and Roti to name two, not to mention small mom and pop shops that do this but better in every regard.
Yeah but not everywhere has a rich ethnic food culture like Chicago. Where i live, there's not a whole lot of options for mediterranean food at least close by. You're not missing out. I had them once and it was pretty good but too expensive.
CAVA is like the Subway of Mediterranean food except it's more expensive and less customizable. You go in hoping for a healthy, flavorful meal, and leave with a bowl that looks like someone just tossed a salad into a blender and called it gourmet. Their ingredients are supposed to be fresh, but somehow your falafel tastes like it's been in a marathon through a desert. And don't get me started on the portion sizes-it's like they're serving "artisan" bites meant for a toddler. You pay $15 for a bowl that’s basically 50% lettuce, 30% hummus, and 20% disappointment.
It’s pretty good stop capping, it’s just high calories because all the oily dressing. But you can make it healthy by only adding the right ingredients.
@bicgohill8756 i live in Central VA and we have a couple of options like Cava - doing similar things. Personally, I love the flavors and the freshness.
An ounce of meat, with mostly rice, and vegetables. I can't see the value for most consumers, but hey I can't be convinced to pay $10 plus for a bowl that consist of 80% rice.
I can't speak for everyone but I would say Cava is only preferred for lunch. Can't get something healthy and tasty for lunch on the street these days. Would never get it for dinner. Workplace culture of packing lunch is also non existent. Many friends get stipend for lunch. Def a diff product market fit
All the employees at CNBC are yelling at each other to purchase this stock, before they publish this sales pitch for CAVA 😂😂😂 CAVA’s check to CNBC is in the post 😂😂😂
I went to cava for the first time in St Pete Florida and the experience was not very nice. Granted they were about to close but still. They don't have the friendly atmosphere that many Chipotles used to have. Food tasted all right. Not sure if it has that addictive taste that Chipotle has. I might give it a chance a few times but I've heard from others that it gets kind of boring and bland after a while.
I have seen thia story before. No thank. Wallstreet is the most delusional entity in the universe. I rememebr when one of them was telling about peletons and how everyone has it or wnants it. At the time i made 40k a year. I laughed in his face and he didnt understNd why 😂😂
Mediterranean found is mid as hell and this looks pretty unappetizing. This is 100% by investor speculation by people 100% disconnected from the actual market
It’s pretty good, They have a lot of sauces and flavors and the toppings are fresh, if you try harissa sauce is good, the spicy hummus, and their harissa chicken(cost a little more) is good
I ate there once and had a bunch of steak and red spicy stuff mixed with healthy looking green stuff and it tasted good to me. I had to continuously ask for more steak though. So something tells me that people are generally going to settle for smaller portions. I wanted my money's worth though 😅
Investors who invest in news agencies as well as restaurants manage to get their investment talked about being a wonderful investment on one of their investments
Whenever CNBC talo about a company/stock. They are trying to provide exit liquidity for the big dawgs. Be careful buying this. Speaking as a someone who bought 15 $50 2025 calls last year and made good money. I am now slowly entering a short position. Some atm puts 6months out. Glad if you read this and make money
I enjoy eating at Cava, although a bit expensive. While the stock has tripled since it went public, the P/E ratio is 10X its competitors, which doesn't seem like a good investment to me.
There's no valve eating there!!!!!! I make a copy of Taco Bell grilled burrito at home for $1. I make creamy shrimp alfredo using American shrimp for $3 a large serving. Cook at home and stop giving away ur treasure!!!!
Wow! The junkies would buy any craap! CAVA current Forward PE = 263.16 hahaha! A joke for 35% Revenue growth only. It is a Meme Stock! Be careful! Nvidia is above 100% growth a year, and forward PE is only 43. Nvidia's F.PE should be 263. That would make more sense. Nvidia is so cheap right now!
They'll go on a massive expansion fuelled by debt just in time for consumer taste to change to the next best thing. The CEO will get a golden parachute, 'reorganize' the business and let the franchisees and mom/pop investors holding the bag.
