As you will see by the detail, thousands of hours of decorating goes into each season and each design. For example, the Christmas 2021 display featured 70,000 feet of Swarovski Crystals, a record breaking 250,000 lights, over 70 Christmas Trees and more than 40,000 ornaments on display!

For the 2023 Christmas season Cava will feature a King Midas themed holiday display as well as an emerald city and 2 more themes yet to be announced. Television personality Bethenny Frankel recently visited and shared this video.

 

In the past designers have transformed the Italian fine dining restaurant into a scene from the movie Frozen, Polar Express, a 'Wizzarding World' and Cinderella inspired dining room. Before you go, make your reservation HERE or call 860-628-2282. Now, let's explore even further.

Cava has been decorating with meticulous detail since 2008. This is a "must see" destination and so close to the Albany area. Check out these pictures but the real magic is to see the place in person.
