Cava
calories & menu.

Every base, every dip. Build a bowl and see the total.

Cava is Mediterranean Chipotle — a base, a protein, dips, toppings, dressing — and the calorie math looks similar. A Falafel Bowl runs ~680 cal, a Chicken + Rice Bowl ~720, a Spicy Lamb Meatball Bowl ~800. The dips (hummus 80, crazy feta 90, tzatziki 45) are cheap; the crazy feta plus a full dressing pour is where a lean order becomes a heavy one. This page has every component broken out plus signature bowls at published values. Cava lists their nutrition transparently on-site, and these are the current US numbers.

Common questions.

How many calories in a Cava chicken bowl?
The signature Chicken + Rice Bowl is 720 cal (42g protein, 60g carbs, 32g fat). A custom chicken bowl with hummus, tzatziki, crazy feta, tomato and lemon tahini runs 850–950 depending on which dips you get scooped.
How many calories in a Cava Falafel Bowl?
The signature Falafel Bowl is 680 cal (20g protein, 76g carbs, 32g fat). Falafel itself is 320 cal for a 6-piece serving — the densest protein-per-scoop item.
What's the lowest-calorie Cava bowl?
Build-your-own with SuperGreens or Splendid Greens (not rice), one lean protein (grilled or braised chicken), tzatziki + cucumber salad, and half lemon herb tahini lands around 420–460 cal with 40g+ protein. Skipping the warm grain saves 260–320 cal.
How many calories in Cava rice?
Saffron Rice 320 cal (65g carbs). Brown Rice 300 cal. Lentil Rice 260 cal — highest protein of the three grain bases. It's the single biggest calorie decision in a Cava bowl.
How many calories in Cava dressings?
Full pour: Lemon Herb Tahini 140, Greek Vinaigrette 100, Yogurt Dill 80, Skhug 100, Roasted Garlic 90, Green Harissa 90. Ask for half — it's more than enough and cuts calories by 50%.
How many calories in Cava crazy feta?
90 calories for one scoop: 3g protein, 3g carbs, 8g fat. It's mostly feta whipped with jalapeño and lemon — smaller than a hummus scoop but denser.
How many calories in Cava chicken?
Grilled Chicken: 260 cal, 40g protein — best protein-per-calorie of the mains. Braised Chicken: 220 cal, 32g protein. Harissa Honey Chicken: 290 cal (adds sweet-spicy glaze).
Is Cava healthier than Chipotle?
Directly comparable — both are build-your-own bowls with similar structure and calorie ranges (600–900 for a typical bowl). Cava's advantages: more vegetable-based dips, meze-style small scoops that keep any one ingredient under 100 cal, and lentil rice as a higher-protein grain. Neither is inherently 'healthier' — the choices you make matter more.
