Lili Fiore

Our food choices were amazing. Fried artichokes were too die for.Service was great & friendly staff. Everything we ordered was delicious except one dish was ok but will be going back to try that dish again for improvement. Highly recommended

Cava has a lovely lunch special that comes with a salad or appetizer or soup, a main course and is reasonably priced and appropriately sized for a lunch meal. We didn’t end up with leftovers, as it is a decent lunch portion. Overall, good seafood selection, good chicken, nice salad and good cave like quiet ambiance.

The food and the vibe are fantastic. Every dish I tried was prepared very well and had rich flavors. The only negative was that the service was a little slow, that being said the staff was friendly.

Sean Arendell

Surprisingly good brunch at a great price. $19 prix fixe 2-course meal is a steal, especially given the quality of the food. We ordered Spicy Salmon Tartare and Crispy Brussels salad for apps and both were really fresh and really well done. For mains we got Pappardelle and Branzino, again both very tasty. Would definitely recommend. Be warned the online menu does not match the actual, several items have changed.

Hands down one of the best places to eat, if not the best, in New Canaan. Wonderful fun, great staff, great chef. If there could be six stars, I would click on it. 5 plus stars.
