      CAVA is doing the exact same business strategy as Chipotle. They’re working on rapid expansion, but once they either reach market saturation, or stall out, they’ll reduce quality and increase prices

      It’s the model for every fast-casual chain. I really wish people would support local restaurants more. You get better food at a cheaper price when you don’t have corporate taking a 30% profit margin

        I go mostly to local restaurants, but sometimes I’m in the mood for Cava. And yeah I’m waiting for them to drop in quality and/or portion size

      This is the way. I buy a CAVA bowl once a week. The way I have it made will feed me three times. That’s three dinners for less than $14.

        Lol same. I get a Cava bowl and will pick at it for like two days straight.

        I’m just waiting for the time I go in and find out that they’ve all been told to make the bowls smaller to save money. Only a matter of time.
