Greek restaurant opens in Tenleytown

Cava Grill, a Greek restaurant, opened a new location in Tenleytown on Oct. 4.

The restaurant is part of a chain that serves healthy food in a timely manner for little cost, according to Brett Schulman, the operating partner for Cava Grill.

“It’s great for students, office workers and families because the grill is set up like an assembly line, so people can get their food and go if they need to,” he said.

Similar to Chipotle, customers first choose a main dish of salad, pita or a bowl. Then they choose a meat or vegetable dish and toppings.

“Falafels, Crazy Feta and other spicy sauces are our most popular items on the menu,” Schulman said.

The restaurant is located near the corner of Van Ness Street and Wisconsin Avenue, near McDonald’s. The restaurant will soon accept Eaglebuck$, Schulman said.

Cava Grill is offering dine-in dishes at their Tenleytown location to become more eco-friendly. Only disposable dishes are offered at the restaurant’s other D.C.-area branches.

“We hope to test it out at the Tenleytown location and incorporate it at the other locations,” Schulman said.
