Cava offers braised lamb made with halal lamb, but the final product is not certified halal. While Cava claims the meat in their braised lamb is halal, they do not have formal halal certification. Some Muslim consumers are cautious due to the lack of certification and the ambiguity surrounding the sourcing and preparation of their products. Additionally, Cava’s spices used in the braised lamb are not certified halal, although none of the ingredients are known to violate halal requirements.

And Allah knows best.
