Really consistent and delicious food. I’ve been ordering take out and it’s fresh, tasty, generous and really well presented every time. Great chimichangas!

Artwork and sculptures were eye catching and pleasing. Staff were friendly and helpful. I tried a Cadillac margarita and an Ultimate margarita, both were good just not very strong. Started with Diablo wings which were good, tad over cooked and not very spicy. Niece tried the shrimp ceviche and was not happy, I agreed it was bland. Sister got a birria taco and said that was good. I ordered the chile relleno which had a lot of cheese, glad I asked for the pickled onions on the side because I was not a fan. They were a smidgen too sweet with an herb (guessing oregano) that clashed with the pickling and sauces on the relleno. Fried green plantains were not very crispy but still had good flavor (although some in our party thought they were too salty).

One of our favorite new restaurants! The chips and salsa trio is a must have. I'd sprinkle whatever seasoning's on the chips on everything if I could. Yum!

My husband and I already have our go-to entrees of California Burrito and Chimmichanga and even the kiddos love the burritos with fries.

Great family please but sure can be busy!

Wow! This place is fantastic. The food was delicious and the staff impressed (Luis, specifically)! I enjoy Mexican food, but often times one experience blends in with the another. A burrito, a taco, or the refried beans at one place are similar or the same as at another place- BUT NOT AT THIS PLACE! Cava Azul makes me LOVE Mexican / Mexican inspired foods again. I ordered the tacos birrias and it was fantastic. The refried beans were amazing and I could have eaten an entire bowl of them (I'm not normally enthusiastic about refried beans - and they usually go uneaten on my plate! So I consider this to be quite the compliment!). We had the bacon wrapped jalapenos and I thoroughly enjoyed them! They even had some pretty delicious sweet potato fries (very sweet flavor!). My wife had the steak fajitas (I had a taste) - they were fantastic! Everyone in our party was happy with their meals. The service from LUIS blew our minds. Very attentive, happy to offer some fantastic recommendations and to top it all off - after a staff member accidentally discarded left over soup that was meant to be boxed up - Luis had the kitchen remake it so we could have a fresh bowl to take home. We didn't have to ask... he just let us know there was a mistake made and they were fixing it right now. Well done Luis!

10/10. We couldn't have had a better experience. We'll be back! This visit wont blend in with other Mexican restaurant visits!

Good Mexican brunch/lunch/dinner spot in Woodinville. We had brunch a few days ago, and it wasn’t that busy. Welcoming staff. Our waitress was quite friendly. I had Chilaqules and it was quite tasty. Our older boy had Steak and eggs, and he liked it very much. Wifey liked the shrimp tacos. Overall a great place!

Absolutely loved the vibe here! The staff was super friendly, and everything we ordered was fresh and full of flavor. We had the bacon-wrapped jalapeños, a burrito, and the avocado chicken salad—everything was delicious, but that seasoning on the chicken? So good. Definitely recommend checking this place out!

Cava Azul – Where brunch turned into a full-blown relationship.

It all started with the Carnival Eggs Benedict. One bite and it was love at first hollandaise. We came back. And then came back again. My boyfriend and I now have joint custody of the nachos—we split them so often they practically know our names.

Last visit, I had the ceviche and… OMG. I think I proposed to it.

Every bite is a flavor fiesta, and I’m not even sorry about how often we go. 10/10 recommend falling in love here.

Loved the food and ambience. We ordered the Cava Nachos, Fajita and had the Lava Choco Cake for dessert. Loved their Margaritas and Sangria.

We visited this restaurant on Mother's Day and had a wonderful experience. The food was delicious, and the service was excellent. Keep in mind that they serve fresh ingredients, so it takes a little while—about 15-20 minutes—for the food to arrive after you place your order. However, I would say the wait is definitely worth it. I highly recommend this place!

Food was delicious, but service was a bit lacking the night I was there. Overall, It's a great place. I'd go back again.
