The LA CAVA concept is based on Armando's roots. Born and raised in Florence, he grew up learning that as a local, one would go dining in the little Osterias where everything was made fresh daily, prepared with basic ingredients, simple recipes, delightful flavors and lots of love, for a fantastic experience that was also "gentle" on your wallet.No Out-Door dining. STAY SAFE!

    Came in this past Sunday for Easter Brunch and had such a great experience! We made a reservation and despite showing up early, they sat us right away! The Sunday brunch is amazing and such a great value! So many options to choose from! Great omelettes,enchiladas, seafood, tacos, prime rib and not to mention the desserts! It will take a few more visits to be able to try all the amazing food! The staff was so on point! Jose was our server who made sure to check in on us and keep the mimosos flowing! Joseph was bringing food to the buffet area and was so friendly and helpful! Pointing out ALL the different food options! Go check them out! You will love it! 😋

    Ran late because of traffic but hostess looked out for us and made sure we had a great table. Such an affordable, yet high quality experience- not easy to find that combination in SoCal. I would highly recommend this restaurant for a group or family. Each plate is around $15 and it’s normal to get 3 plates, allowing you to try multiple choices in one experience. So, if you are looking for a quality experience with a group, this would be the perfect choice!
