CAVA Nutrition Facts
Last updated: July 1, 2026 · How we source & estimate these macros
CAVA has 9 menu items with full macro data — calories, protein, carbs, and fat. Highest protein: Spicy Chicken + Avocado Pita (50 g protein, 980 cal). Lowest calorie: Greek Salad Bowl (585 cal, 37 g protein).
CAVA specializes in customizable Mediterranean bowls, pitas, and salads featuring grilled meats, fresh greens, and dips inspired by Greek and Middle Eastern flavors at its multiple New York locations including Wall Street and Union Square. For the single best macro-friendly order, build a SuperGreens base bowl with double grilled chicken (56g protein), RightRice (18g protein), tzatziki, and yogurt dill dressing, delivering high protein around 80g total while keeping carbs moderate under 60g and calories around 750 by skipping high-fat toppings. The highest-protein item is the Chicken + RightRice curated bowl at 46g protein for 750 calories, combining grilled chicken with high-protein RightRice. Watch out for the garlic dressing at 180 calories per serving, mostly from 20g fat with zero protein, which can quickly inflate bowl calories without nutritional benefit.
This approach maximizes lean protein from grilled chicken and RightRice while using low-calorie greens and dressings to control macros effectively for fitness goals.
Best Macro Pick
Spicy Chicken + Avocado Pita — the highest-protein item on the curated menu at 50g protein for 980 calories; for the best protein-to-calorie ratio, the Steak + Harissa Bowl delivers 37g protein at just 610 calories.
Watch Out For
Falafel Crunch Bowl (860 cal, 56g fat, 2,210mg sodium) — despite the plant-based halo it is CAVA's highest-fat, highest-sodium curated bowl; the Garlic Dressing alone adds 180 cal and 20g fat with zero protein.
