CAVA vs DIG Nutrition Compared

Change either order and watch the difference move.

Start from

What’s in this order?

One serving of the chain's plain rice and one grilled or roasted chicken, and nothing else — no beans, no cheese, no salsa, no sauce. The floor of a bowl order, which is what makes it comparable across chains that top their bowls very differently. Read the protein weights before the totals: a standard chicken portion is 4 oz at Chipotle but 2 oz at Cafe Rio, so Cafe Rio's lower number is half the chicken as much as it is a lighter chicken.
