Food is consistently good here just like their servers. Portions can feel small for the price paid,but the flavor tends to make up for the size. Recommend the bbq chicken pizza or the bbq chicken salad

Sat at the bar to have a couple of drinks while my girls shopped. Sarah the bartender was awesome and the two pizza chefs were kicking some serious ass. Saw them pump out about 30-40 tasty-lookibg pizzas. Love this place.

My sister and I came for brunch after shopping at the mall. The serviced started off great. We were seated and our server came to take our order. He introduced himself and took our drink order. After bringing our drinks we placed our order for: California Club Pizza - just an average pizza that looked more like a salad Jambalaya - was amazing, pasta with crawfish, shrimp, and chicken and just the right amount of spicy. Lobster something- just mayonaise and lobsters on fried tortilla. Avocado Rolls - the best item on their menu! Later towards the end of our meal, I noticed that everyone received complimentary bread. I asked our waiter why were we excluded and if he had forgotten. His response was ridiculous! "You have to request to get complimentary bread." Seriously?!? It is not my first time here, and I have never had to request it before. Just admit you forgot it! Besides that little lie from him he was a pretty decent server.

For a chain CPK is one of the better ones, but still not really stand out. I was obsessed with their roasted veggie pizza, but they no longer carry it. The salads are good, but far from healthy, pizzas are good but kind of on the small side and I always get their egg rolls. Service is ok, a bit slow and prices a bit higher than they need to be for chain food. Wouldn't go out of my way to come back, but it was fine.

I have reviewed this location once, but I must say that the staff here really are amazing. The manager is great too (you know not snobby or unhelpful like some, just a great down to earth guy). They are always so friendly and attentive. I love coming here, they recognize you and make you feel welcome. We had signed up for an offer and never received it and the manager was kind enough to honor it at that visit. Love it!! Little things like that are what keep us coming in almost every week ;)

Haven't been to CPK in a while but it has definitely improved by a lot since I've last been here! They added lots of different options to the menu now, like salmon, ribeye, tacos, etc. Of course, pizza is the best to get here but the other dishes are above average too. We got the shaved mushroom and spinach flatbread, my favorite appetizer here! If you register for rewards (just by putting down your email), I think you can get this menu item for free. Saladwise, I've always liked the California Cobb salad. Soups aren't really my thing here. For pizzas, you can't go wrong with the Original BBQ Chicken Pizza, always my favorite one. My sister likes the Hawaiian pizza but since no one wanted to share with her, she got a kid's size. Don't forget that you can get a kid's size if you want a smaller portion of something! They have a kid's menu available separately. And I also really like the mushroom pepperoni sausage pizza. You have to add some money but I think it's worth it if you get your pizzas with a thin crust. The only thing I was annoyed about was that they didn't cut the pizza evenly, one part was WAY too large and one part was way too small, so we kind of had to recut it ourselves. If you're feeling like pasta, I love the kung pao spaghetti! The chicken tequila fettuccine comes in second for my favorite pastas here. I tried the halibut last time (a new menu item) and it was delicious!! Was really surprised that as a pizza restaurant, they excel in seafood as well! Honestly, anything you order will probably be good. I haven't tried anything I hated or that I didn't like.

It's been a long time since I've been to CPK. I think the last time I came was in high school and that was between the years of 2004-2008. Me and my boyfriend got a gift card as a Christmas gift so of course we're going to use it. If we didn't have this gift card we probably would never come. Honestly, I'm glad we did because they upgraded a lot of their stuff here. The menu and the quality of the food definitely exceeded my expectations. Service was super friendly and helpful. She always refilled our water cups when they were empty. The free bread they give you as an appetizer tastes sooo much better now. In the past, they used to serve their bread cold, hard and with butter. Now they have a different type of bread that's bigger in size, fresh when it comes out, and with an olive oil sauce. My boyfriend got the jambalaya and he said it was okay. It was a little heavy, but I think that's suppose to be a good thing. He just doesn't eat that much I got their arugula and asparagus small plate salad. It was delicious. I'm a big fan of arugula so I really enjoyed this dish. It also comes with shaved Parmesan cheese and almonds. This is a must get if you want an appetizer. I also got the kung pao noodles. I liked this dish as well. It's not spicy like it says it is, but it has a really nice flavor to it. It might seem a little dry and lacking in sauce, but there was more sauce on the bottom and just mixed everything up. The noodles are linguini and I liked the crunch of the peanuts. This dish is a must get as well. Portions are huge, I couldn't finish everything.

Located at the Santa Anita Mall upstairs by Macy's. Good luck finding parking during mall rush hours, best bet is to park by Nordstrom's past the underground parking structures. During Lunch and Dinner hours, this place can get pretty full. Best bet is to avoid dining in and getting it as takeout as nobody really does takeout... also you don't have to tip. The food here is pretty good, however it is higher in price for a smaller portion. Their "small plates" are more of appetizers. I ordered the Mac and Cheese small plate thinking it would come in a small plate as the title would suggest, but I just got 4 fried mac and cheese shaped like chicken nuggets. For $7 that's pretty outrageous. Also, it wasn't even that great, it was fairly dry, and lacked the mac n' cheese flavor. The main course was more flavorful, and it came in a decent sized portion, however for the price I would've expected a little more. Their deserts however, does not compare to Cheesecake Factory. I got the Key Lime Pie and hated it. It was more bitter than sour. It was pretty hard to eat. If you were planing to get desert, get it somewhere else like Cheesecake Factory which is also located at the mall. Overall, this place is decent, however their food portions could be better, as well as the seasoning of the food.

Mediocre food , decided to Grab a quick bite at the race tracks at santa anita and the front desk was very friendly . However I will omit the servers name but he rushed my meal and did not even say one word other than the order. No attention to our table or no ask for dessert or how the meal tasted. Pretty cold lackluster service if you ask me. I did not see him until the end and was given the check and less than 30 seconds he came back to pick up the check. I did not even get a chance to sip my drink before I was hastled for my payment. I saw him more at payment time than the service Disappointing service by the bar and I should have just ordered pizza at home that day because I received no attention from my waiter Maybe caught him on a bad day, will give him the benefit of the doubt.

Had CPK cater a work event. Service was polite and timely. We had a variety of pizzas and desserts and everything was amazing. The pizzas were done to perfection, with a thin crust with just enough crunch without being hard. The variety of toppings really allows you to serve the tastebud needs of a large group of people.

First time at this location. We didn't appreciate them sitting two parties that checked in after our group, ahead of us, both of which were a party of 5 and we were a party of 4. Once sat our server Jeremy was very nice and even bought us complimentary chips with guacamole since it was our first time! He was very on top of refills and we felt very comfortable. Would definitely be back.

Stuck between a three and four star for overall experience here, but I rounded up for old times sake. I used to really love California Pizza Kitchen, but my most recent visit just wasn't as pleasant as the rest. I'm thinking it was because Valentine's Day rush really slowed everything down. The boyfriend had work until the evening, and he chose this place for our simple dinner together. We didn't know that there was a Valentine Day's special (from the Feb. 11th-15th) but we decided to throw in a couple more bucks and go with it since we wanted an appetizer and two entrees anyways. The special was: appetizer, two entrees, and two desserts for a total of ~$32 (without tax or tip). There was a long wait, and I expected that at the time we were going. It was difficult to find parking and the estimated wait time was longer than provided though the hostesses were very nice and cheerful. We were starving and got Potato Corner while we waited. In the end, the total wait time was about 40 minutes. SERVICE I want to emphasize that our waiter was a really nice guy. He stopped by our table several times to check if we were okay, and we were. He apologized for our wait (for the table and food) since they are busy in the back, which completely makes sense since there were still people crowded around in front waiting for a table. FOOD/ DRINKS In terms of food, I just went home unsatisfied. I was full, but I didn't really enjoy the food. For drinks, I got the Fresh Mango Cooler, which tasted sweet and sour with a hint of mint and soda. The boy got his beloved Fresh Strawberry Lemonade and we had no complaints there. For food, we ordered the Spinach Dipped Artichoke appetizer, Garlic Cream Fettuccine and The Original Hand Tossed Hawaiian Pizza entree, and Red Velvet Cake for dessert. The pasta, which I think I normally like, was lukewarm and a little dry - much different than what I had before. Hawaiian Pizza was not what I expected - much more plain than I remember. I only recall tasting ham and pineapple toppings on the pizza and either just didn't taste as fresh or hot. What I enjoyed most was our appetizer which came pippin' hot and delicious and arrived two minutes before the entrees. I can overlook the time and wait for the table and food since I get that it was really busy and it was difficult to accommodate everyone, but I wish the quality of the food was worth the wait. Almost $50 for a meal and it just wasn't that good this time. Sadly, I probably won't come back for awhile.

Typical CPK restaurant with ok food. After long hours of shopping, I came here with my sister in law to have lunch. We were glad that there was no wait because we were hungry; however, the hostess was trying to squeeze us in a small table when we had many shopping bags in our hands. We had to ask him for a bigger table with a little more space for our goodies. We ordered: --Asparagus and spinach spaghettini with salmon was good; however, they were a little cheap with the toppings (asparagus, spinach and salmon). There were a lot of noodles and not enough toppings. Looks like the chef took two spears of asparagus and chopped it up in small pieces, couple of spinach leaves and one ounce of salmon and placed it on top of the noodles. Not enough protein for one person. --Spinach and artichoke pizza was dry and tough. Again, not enough toppings just like the other dish. --Mango iced tea was refreshing and not too sweet. Yes to free refills. Service, overall, was good. Our server checked on us couple of times and kept my drinks full and even boxed my leftovers for me instead of handing me the boxes. Food was ok and very pricey. I wouldn't mind paying that price if they had given me more toppings and an edible pizza.

How can I not give them a solid five stars!!!! My daughter just had her Best Birthday party here!!! Everything was so nice and special!!! The cost is very very reasonable and everyone had so much fun with good food and drink! The "make your own pizza activity" was so special and our kids can eat their "own made" pizza just couple min after the kitchen tour! It was so cute and fun!!! We really love you "Peter" (the manager)!!! Peter did very well on the kitchen tour and our kids just love him!!! The only down side is we have to host the party before the restaurant open, but I totally understand that!!! We will definitely do another party at CPK again!!! Thanks again!!! We love CPK!!!!

Came to the mall with some friends to buy some clothes from Macy's and decided to stop here for lunch. Overall a nice place for a relatively quick bite. Our server was very attentive and quick. COMPLEMENTARY BREAD: wow, it's been a while since I've been to any CPK; the last time I was here they gave us regular bread (not toasted) with butter. Now, they toast the bread slices and give us a side of olive oil to dip. GRILLED CHICKEN CAESAR SANDWICH: A sandwich composed of grilled chicken, Caesar salad dressing, parmesan shavings, lettuce, and tomatoes on a parmesan herb cibatta bun. Comes with either a cup of soup or Caesar salad. I opted for the salad. Best deal for lunch IMO, not too much where you take any leftovers but enough so that it fills you up. PESTO CREAM PENNE W/ CHICKEN: Pretty good but not worth the extra $3 for the chicken. There were maybe 3-4 tiny pathetic pieces of chicken in there at most. Pesto flavor was a little too light. Would not recommend. ORIGINAL BBQ CHICKEN CHOPPED SALAD: Great salad option, got a half portion. Consists of lettuce, chicken, BBQ sauce, ranch, chopped tomatoes, and corn chips. Was a little on the small side, should've ordered the large portion.

Excellent customer service. Got seated once arrival. CPK located inside the Westfield Arcadia Mall. Ordered the bbq chicken pizza and a salad. Pizza dough was amazingly good. Perfect taste and texture. Butter cake topped with vanilla ice cream is a must have! Love that it is inside the mall, located inside the mall next to Macy's. Lots of good retailers shops.

This restaurant is A-OK. It's not amazing; it's your normal CPK. I don't know why my mom loves it and keeps raving about how great the pizza crust is...but I think it's nothing special. I just eat it because I don't have to pay for it in all honesty. I've had better, fresher pizzas before. Also, about the service. I think that waiters are pretty good here. However, if you try to find another waiter who isn't attending to your table and they SEE you trying to get their attention, they will do NOTHING about it. They wouldn't even tell my main waiter that I needed something. I understand the whole one waiter assigned to a set of tables stuff, but I mean you could at least let my waiter know. Overall, the food isn't bad, it's okay. And the only thing that's good about the service is the waiter assigned to your table. Other than that, no one in this restaurant really cares about you because they're not getting any tips.

The chicken avocado egg rolls are a must. It has bits of succulent bacon inside. Taste great alone or along with the provided dipping sauces. Didn't care much for the carnitas pizza but the three cheese pizza on thin crust was simply amazing. The bbq chicken salad with added avocado was really fresh and tasty. I didn't try the fettuchini alfredo with mushrooms however it was at the same table and it looked creamy and yummy. The waitress was attentive and kept the drinks coming. Definitely will dine here again.

It was a good Sunday. Forgive me, fellow yelpers, you know I like to ramble on (like the Led Zepp song) but I spent almost 1/3 of my Good Sunday at CPK with my loved ones...ok, with my friends... ok, with the crew of ladies I go pillaging and plundering the local malls with and maybe enjoy a shot of something decadent with. After shopping all over the Glendale galleria with my girls, we needed someplace different to go to for the day. Enter the Santa Anita Mall. We had a great time walking around, and there were a LOT more of my people meeting and greeting. So we took our merry caravan of shoppers and ate at CPK. It was our base of operations for the day. 1st round - lunch. I know my friend Sarah really enjoyed her lettuce wraps (she cared more about them then her morning purchases). I myself had the chicken tequila fettucini. This is my preferred dish at CPK, and it was really QUITE tasty at this location. The creme sauce did not taste to milky and there was genuine kick to the chili. Nothing too bad, but enough to really fuel my afternoon shopping. 4 hours later, and many many miles walked and shopped through the store, we came back with different friends to compare what else we had picked up. 2nd round - THE FOUR SEASONS PIZZA! With Korean BBQ tacos. It sounds wrong, but it is so southern Californian and tasted so right. I must admit we were famished and had worked up an appetite, so I might have been biased, but IT WAS REALLY GOOD! Remember that scene from When Harry Met Sally? The restaurant table? That was the contest... who ever could (discretely) vocalize just how good there food tasted. *And yes, one of us did vocalize faking-it. The strawberry lemonade was a bit more bitter than what we had earlier the same day in the same restaurant, not 4 hours earlier. We held court for another hour there (and tipped WELL, mind you) while we made last minute dashes to stores that some of our friends had made great discoveries at stores we briefly skimmed. Which of course led to DESSERT Round 3 - Key lime pie. As usual, it was up to the girls who carry the big guns to put away dessert. I may be 5'2" but I can put down any dessert like a tiger taking down a kill! By this time, my taste buds are ready for the coup-de-gras, the gentle triumph over all. Nope. Key lime pie should not taste like cheesecake, and vica versa. It was good, but I was hoping for true lime savor-iness. The fruit on top of it was also a little smaller than what I am used to at CPK. Great location, great time, dessert could be better. Avoid the fruits, stick to the pasta dishes and you should be good!

My husband and I came here for dinner and we were not disappointed. We were seated right away, the waitress was friendly, we had to ask for the bread now, but it 's still good. We both ordered the spaghetti bolognese. It was wonderful! It was very al dente, had a great flavor! We will definitely be back!

The service is as bad as you can get. The waitress looks at us as if we owe her $2,000,000. Their BBQ Chicken pizza and the green pasta are addicting. But seems like they are stingy on veggies. You don't get much vegetables even if you order a salad.
(3)
Gary L.

I got the Chicken Salad this time. The lettuce looked half dead as in it was on its way to going brown. The half portion of it was a pretty good size already, if anyone's interested. Still, I give it 5 stars because the rest of the salad was good, the pizza tastes good as always and isn't greasy, and their great service. Among the crying babies of other tables, the servers are calm and patient. The manager was excellent in doing his part as well. I will come here again.

The cuisine here is exquisite. I love the Grilled Vegetable Salad as well as the Pizza too. The customer service is excellent. They also have other locations nearby such as the one in Pasadena near McCormick & Schmuck. The food is to die for. The individual Pizza boxes are very creative as well. The interior decorating of the restaurant is pretty awesome too.

i always come here when i get a chance to enjoy there pizza and Italian soda with cream on the side the best. this place is always busy during lunch but other times is good. but when you come here try to get a table on the inside you don't want to sit out side, while people walk by and looking at you while your enjoying your meal. not a good feeling. **they used to give you bread and butter but now you have to ask for it if you want it** ** all the Italian soda you can drink and don't forget to ask for some cream along with it **

We went to CPK to meet up with our friends who were watching a movie at the mall. I called ahead. They said they don't accept reservations but they will sure put us on the list and prepare for us. We had 17 people and they were able to accommodate us outside. The downside is we can't be served alcohol which was fine. Some of our friends just went inside and got their drinks at the bar while we wait for the food to be served. We always ordered the BBQ chicken pizza so my husband decided that we will have anything beside that this time. We ordered the Thai chicken pizza, pepperoni pizza and meat craver pizzas. We didn't care for the Thai chicken pizza but the other two were good. We ordered the avocado egg rolls for appetizer and they were delicious. My favorite pasta, broccoli, sun-dried fusilli with grilled chicken breast, was great as always. We tried the Thai chopped salad for the first time and it was surprisingly good! CPK also have one of the best kid menus. A huge selection with good portions and reasonable prices. You can also add $1 for a huge sundae. I love their new "handmade" soda, $3 each with free refills. The waitress let us try different flavors for our refills. I tried the basil mint lemonade and the mango and they were both light and refreshing!

Spinach Artichoke Pizza, Barbeque Chicken Pizza. Yummy!!! I once ordered a Chicken Marsala where they added waaay too much salt. They remade it for me correctly and didn't charge me for it. Excellent service.

Someone asked me if I love to eat pizza and I usually tell them I dislike the bland, salty, generic taste that Domino's and Pizza usually prepares. However, I always forget about CPK when people mention pizza because I think the pizzas served at CPK are way more developed in taste, quality and creativity. I love fusion and foods and CPK is the King of fusion pizza. My favorite pizzas are: Thai Chicken and the Jamaican Jerk Pizza (its the best!). I always have to order their their raspberry ice tea as they pump raspberry Italian syrup and tea together. The seasonal strawberry shortcake dessert is awesome! The Arcadia CPK really has great service with every individual from the hostess, to the server and even to the manger! I was so impressed with the server that when the Manger came up to me and see how I was doing I told him that "Jen" the server is doing a magnificent job. To top it off the Manager even gave me a 20% discount! This location deserves an A++

Came back after a year of not going to this location and I have to say I missed it. Food is usually great and most of the serving staff is fantastic esp Vanessa she is the best!! She is super sweet and gives you attention esp if you are a regular. We always try to sit at one of her stations. My only complaint is to avoid this place during the busy hours.

I'd say CPK is a pretty consistent 3.5-4/5 and this franchise is no different. I've been to this one plenty of times and it's been the same (in a good way). Decor/Ambiance: 4/5. I like how they have a mock corner location in the mall to allow their glass windows to wrap around, making the place seem more welcoming and open. They also have a... not outdoor space, but... separate seating in the mall, right outside their doors. It's nice to sit there sometimes to be in the bustle of the mall itself. Service: 3/5. The manager was our seater yesterday and we had an accurate telling of wait time and were led to our seats quickly. Our server on the other hand, tried to be attentive, but something felt lacking. Maybe it was just his energy level. Food: 4/5. My friends and I ordered the Mediterranean Spring Rolls, which I absolutely loved- 5/5. Ignoring the calorie count, this was delicious! I've tried all three flavors before (others being Baha and Thai), and I always prefer the Mediterranean. The cheese in those spring rolls make me happy. This time, I got the Thai Chicken Pizza, though I also like their California Pizza. Word of warning: if you've never tried their California pizza, ASK how they make it. I remember my first impressions of that pizza were not good because it looked like they baked the pizza dough, and then poured a salad over it. Haha. Thai Chicken Pizza is always a safe bet because that's one thing that got them so popular anyway. Btw, my friend and I had leftovers by the end of lunch and then decided to eat them cold for a quick dinner- STILL yum. Rare for cold pizza. :) Overall: 3.5-4/5. This is a pretty homey-feeling place and maybe it's all the yellowness of the store that puts me in a good mood.

I have to say that I like to get their salads and pizza when i come here..i would usually come for lunch....for dinner i would go to di pilla instead..well for the real deal I came here recently because of my cousin she wanted to attended a hs fundraiser for cancer...got to support that.. we go the org. bbq pizza..which is good about $13 the other thing we got was the creamy pesto w/ chicken...im not the best cook but my semi home made version is much better..it was about $14 for just the pasta n sauce we added chk for about $6 more..i have to say it was pretty ridiculous..cuz they just mayb cut up a chk breast n threw it n there making that dish about $20... Service: was not that good our waitress didnt really pay any attention to us..she didnt even refill our drinks...or bring us bread.. i have to say it's a hit of miss w/ the staff..food is ok..but there is sooo many other place to eat at, at the mall nowadays...

Great service and great food. Just like all the other locations.

I don't usually write a review about the food for chain restaurants at a particular location since they all use the same recipe. One of the reason I love about this restaurant is that when u're tired walking around the mall, you can always expect a hearty meal from this place that's satisfying. Service is just exceptional from the hostess, to your server as well as the manager himself. I felt so bad because i didn't wanna bother my server about my pasta being dry, so I told my mom that we'll just take it home and fix it ourselves later on. When the manager came over noticing our pasta was dry, he wanted to know what was wrong, so I told him it was a little more dry than usual, but nothing to worry about. He then insisted on getting us a new one and pack it to go....Honestly...I still feel bad, maybe I should of just told my server from the beginning. But this place actually cares about how their customer feels about their food and service!!!

Rude confrontation with a senior member of your management. planetfeedback.com/califâ€¦ I would like to share an unbelievable and uncomfortable situation that occurred to my wife, my 3 wonderful guests and myself, on July 3, 2009, at 5:30 pm at your restaurant in Arcadia, California at the Santa Anita Fashion Park Mall. My group frequently dine at your restaurants throughout California and have had many pleasant memories. Last week we visited the Hollywood and Highland Center CPK and had a wonderful experience, took many pictures, and laughed a lot. What a complete difference when we visited your Arcadia location after our very pleasant visit to The Huntington Library and Botanical Gardens. My group was very hungry after a long tour of the gardens and decided to dine at our favorite pizza restaurant. We found one in Arcadia and was seated at an outside table. A pleasant female server asked for our order and my friend Mercedes, her 2 teenage daughters, my wife and I ordered a complete meal. We handed the server our "Thank You" card and waited for the order to arrive. The pleasant server delivered the Chicken Salad and indicated that our 4 pizza orders were in progress. After approximately 10 minutes elapsed the general manager, Alex Montes, arrived and informed us that the card expired 2 days ago and that he could not accept it. I informed him that we are frequent guests and asked for an exception. Mr. Montes apologized and refused. I informed Mr. Montes that I used to own several pizza franchises and the goal of marketing is to get the customers into the door so they may enjoy a wonderful meal and have pleasant memories. I mentioned that my pizza franchise marketing budget averaged about $2000 per person to gain one customer and an additional $1500 per person to convince them to return. Alex Montes, once again, humbly refused to accommodate us but mentioned that the Regional Director of Operations was present and may make an exception. When the regional Director of Operations, Bill Snodgrass, came to see me I could immediately see that he had a harsh attitude. He arrived with a very stern face and abruptly asked what the problem was. I informed him of my situation and he sternly replied that he will NOT accept the promo card because it was unlawful. I asked if he can make an exception and simply discount the meal since my group was very hungry and excited to dine here. Mr. Snodgrass, with a pompous and arrogant attitude, replied that the promotion had expired and he will not accept it. I exclaimed my astonishment at how far this has escalated in front of the other diners over a promo card that just expired 2 days ago. It was unbelievable that an executive in management would rather embarrass his loyal guests in front of the Friday night, 4th of July crowd and throw away and waste the food that have already been prepared, than to pleasantly accommodate us. Mr. Snodgrass was very staunch, rude and arrogant and he did not treat me respectfully. My guests, my wife and I left the restaurant in disgust. Our pleasant memories of CPK shattered after a nice tour of the Huntington gardens. We decided to dine elsewhere. I don't understand how the management is trained but I believe your marketing department and the CEO would not be happy about how this situation was handled. I would have been more understanding if the server immediately informed us that the promo card was invalid when we ordered. But to have us wait over 10 minutes, the chicken salad and drinks served and the pizza baking in the oven, to tell us the promo card was invalid is a farce. Once again, Mr. Snodgrass would rather waste all the food we ordered and have us leave unhappy, than to make a simple exception as a good customer service gesture and great marketing effort. Please let me know your thoughts in this matter. Our average bill at CPK has been around $80. A $75 gift card to dine at another CPK in the future would be appreciated in order to make a second attempt at dining without sad memories. I appreciate your candid response to this unfortunate event. This a note I just sent to CPKI Contact Us Being rude to customers and have executives (the founders Rick Rosenfield and Larry Flax) support this behavior will not make a successful company. You have lost millions over a $75 incident. Shame on you. It's been over a year and CPKI has not done anything to resolve this issue. They have LOST millions over a stupid $75 incident. Like I warned everyone about this crappy customer service company - I predicted that their stock will crash because they have bad customer service. They have LOST millions over a stupid $75 incident. What knuckle brains.

Food was fine, typical CPK. It gets a 3. The extra star is for our waiter, Charles. Charles was excellent. He was attentive and moved with alacrity. When I waved at him from across the room and held up my phone, he immediately knew that I was going to ask about the Foursquare special and he brought over the appropriate menu. He was wonderful.

What happened here? This place used to be one of my favorites with regular visits on a bi-weekly basis. The service has been pretty consistent (not bad and not great), but the menu has completely made me lost interest. The ingredients are simple and un-exciting and the entrees all looked like they are just the same things mixed around. Where have all the creativity went? I can see why Cheesecake Factory is a much more popular choice even with the price being a little higher. Hopefully, they will change things up again. Before then, I will not be returning.

I like CPK. They offer great selection of food that is not too greasy and taste good. Nothing tastes bad from this place... seriously! I usually get the California Club Pizza (love the avacado topping), Thai Chicken Pizza, and baby clam linguine. The waiters are nice and efficient too. The only complain I have about the drinks is that it's just a bit too sweet. I always have to wait the the ice to melt a little bit first.

Robert T.

The food was great; the service top-notch. I ate lunch there Saturday and was very satisfied, though spending $30 on lunch is a bit pricey for this old tight wad. I had the strawberry shortcake for dessert, and it actually WAS a shortcake. Usually, restaurants use pound cake, but not CPK. It was not only fresh, but warm. Yum!

11.14.07: My Receipt: Server: Yasmin (That's a unique way of spelling her name) Table 42/1 (are there even forty tables there?) Guests: 2 ( No I wasn't on a date) Order Type: Dine In (Yup I wanted to sit and eat, not shop and eat) Area: Dining Room (That's the only room they had) Menu: CPK Dining Room (ha ha this is funny, is there a patio menu I don't know about?) Day Part: Dinner (This is so freaking specific, is there cameras in here too) Pasta 12.79 Garlic Cream w/chix (i never understood that abbreviation for chicken) Pizza 11.29 Goat Cheese 4 items: Good, great, freaking awesome. I love the food here. I was surprised that the pizza was actually really good. I'm not a pizza person so it was nice to eat something without a gallon of oil on top of it. The Chicken Alfredo taste the same, but with a lil' of crush peppers, and a small amount of grated cheese makes the flavor outstanding. It was about 7:00 pm and yeah its located inside the mall but it wasn't as crazy packed as I expect it to be. Our server was very attentive, not the crazy ones that come by every second. Its a good place to just have a snack or a full meal. yum yum!

Love this place..you can't go wrong with CPK anywhere. My all time favorite is the Margarita Pizza along with the Thai salad and cup of Tortilla soup. As always they serve you the free bread while you're waiting. They could be a little more consistent with the bread because sometimes it does not always seem fresh.

Quick Tip: You can't order alcohol if you sit outside. Good service, love their vegetarian eggplant pizza, avocado egg rolls are alright. Not too expensive.

Chris C.

One of the busiest CPK's I've been to since it's located inside the Santa Anita Mall. Everyone's had their own CPK experience, so I'm not gonna babble about it too much. The food is good, but a bit too pricey. I usually get the waldorf chicken salad and a bowl of the adobe chicken chowder, which is excellent by the way. And of course, gotta have the barbecue chicken pizza. I'm sure the other stuff on the menu is good too, and I hope to try some of them out in the future. Expect a good 10 to 20 minute wait to get a table at this CPK...

A piece of me has died every since they took marsala marinara off their menu. DIED. I held a soft spot for this dish particularly because my best friend and I have been coming to CPK since the beginning of high school. We always ordered the marsala marinara with chicken and a spinach and artichoke dip. I stopped ordering it for a short time period and THEY TOOK IT OFF THE MENU. So. Much. Regret. They replaced it with another marinara pasta (which is also no longer on the menu) and the new pasta just wasn't the same. I'm so depressed. Aside from that, this place is still pretty good. Service sucks but they're nice people. My parents are vegetarian and this place is very vegetarian friendly. The thin crust pizzas are very crunchy and the normal pizzas have yummy soft dough. Free bread and butter, the bread is like really dry but I still eat it for some reason. They started buying cheap butter or something and it was gross, so I stopped eating the bread haha. There isn't anything that's really disgusting there. I'm not judging this place like I would a small restaurant. It's a big chain, and for what it is, it's pretty awesomee! If I were to ever to meet the president of CPK, I would guilt trip him for taking a treasured piece of my teenage memories away until he gave up the recipe.

Neeek C.

I'd give 3 stars for effort. All the employees kept walking by and asking if everything was ok. Everything was ok...except for the food. Ordered the Hawaiian BBQ Chicken Pizza And Jamaican Jerk Chicken Pizza. Both Pizzas were very dry. It seemed like they used old dough for the crust. Spicy Chicken Tinga Quesedillas weren't bad. Very soft and soft has a nice twist to it. P.S. maybe the reason behind the dry was because the waitress was upset. When she asked us to take our menus after we ordered, my friend just handed trash in her hand instead of the menu

Chris Y.

CPK has some of the best pizzas you can find, but $13+ is a steep price for a medium sized platter. My family ordered: Thai Crunch Salad - The greens were fresh but the flavors were a bit lacking. It was pretty good, and I would recommend it for veggie lovers. Chicken Fettuccine - I do not recommend this. The dish is completely bland, and I had to season it with lemon and vinegar to give it some taste. And sour was all I could taste after. There was barely any chicken as well. Wild Mushroom Pizza - This was a very good pizza but on the salty side. The crust was thin and crunchy. The mushrooms were a bit meh. Hawaii BBQ Pizza - This was the favorite for my party. It was certainly delicious, but there wasn't that much topping. The bread that came with the meal was dry and tasteless. It's probably the worse bread I've had at any restaurant. Not that it is disgusting, it just doesn't compare with other places. Overall, the experience at CPK was just average. The service was OK, the food was above average, and the decor was pleasant. For the price, I'll have a hard time convincing myself to come back.

So After the movie, we stopped here for lunch. It wasn't very busy at all, walked in and were seated right away. It did take a lil bit for our waitress to come address us. By the time she came we were ready to order.... I went with the Sicilian pizza (only cuz its the most "normal" pizza they have there & I don't have to tell them to take this off and take that off). To drink I tried the Cherry Limeade. Its not what you would expect. Its actually just Lemonade that's carbonated. Food got to us pretty quick and our orders were correct-a-mondo! Refills were not automatic, what I mean is she would come by to see if everything was OK and can see that our glasses were empty but would not ask us if we wanted refills. I would think its an obvious thing, as it was 90+ degrees out & we were still eating. The food was good, the service could have been a lil better in my opinion. I would give em another try, maybe it was just our server

Colt E.

I don't think anyone really needs to know a whole lot about the food at CPK. Most people know what to expect. This is mall type food without high expectations. However, I can't stand when a waitress looks at me in disgust when I ask here what exactly the Sam Adams seasonal is she's trying to sell me. Really?

I've been here quite a few times 'cause I grew up around the area. It's never too impressive but back in highschool, I was hooked on their Chinese Chicken Salad. At other CPKs, I've had their pizzas...but I'm not a thin crust fan. And, I really hated the pear and gorgonzola. CPK's service is always good..but their bread will forever suck. Ugh. Anyways, this review will be based on my most recent visit. I went with family and we each ordered a dish (4 of us): Jambalaya, Chinese Chicken Salad, Chicken Picatta and Chicken Tequila Fettucine. Jambalaya - I was so surprised, it was quite delicious. It had a nice consistency and it was too spicy but spicy enough for a little bit of a kick. It was interesting that it was angel hair pasta. There was plenty of shrimp and I believe that there was so lobster in there too. Chinese Chicken Salad - It was too sweet this time. Chicken Piccatta - I think this dish was the most worth it. There was twice the amount of the other pastas we got. There were three pieces of decent sized chicken breast & it came with a side of angel hair pasta with some kind of lemon-y caper sauce. YUM! Chicken Tequila Fettucine - It was a little too thick 'cause I like my pasta sauce-y. But, it had a nice lemony taste which was refreshing. I liked the bell peppers in it too. I'm used to green noodles (my grandma makes fresh spinach noodles) but this didn't taste like what my grandma makes, so I HOPE it wasn't all food coloring or something haha. WE DIDN"T GET BREAD ): Although it's shitty, it's still nice to get free stuff yadigg?! Oh, I got lemonade too. I was intrigued by the flavored lemonade. The peach one was good but a little light. The mango lemonade was SO TANGY. Wasn't too bad though. Like I said about, CPK is always mediocre. We honestly went 'cause we had a gift card. I would rather go to cheesecake factory because for a few bucks more, the portions are WAY bigger. Meh.

I love CPK, especially this particular CPK! The service is great and the food is extremely delicious. Last time, I came with my family for a fundraiser and we ordered a BLT pizza and Wild Mushroom pizza to share. It was very tasty!!! The pizzas are not really big, but I find it a perfect size. The waiters and waitresses constantly check up on us, which makes us feel very special. The environment of CPK is awesome as well. There is usually a decent noise level, not too loud but not too quiet.

Dgs S.

I had Margarita or Tequila lime Chicken pasta, it was fine. I am generally not a big fan of CPK but I was hungry. I actually saw a few tasty choices on the menu. I might return to this one day. The restaurant is in a mall, always a downside but at least the entrance is nearby.

Colleen C.

So my girlfriends and I went here a few weeks ago, expecting the typical CPK experience after a bit of Christmas Shopping, however my AWESOME waiter Jadez from Temple City made my trip extra great. No joke, this guy was the best waiter ever. He was super patient with our big, indecisive group even though it was extremely crowded and busy at lunch time, he was also very charming and knowledgeable about the menu, answering all of our group's questions about some of the new menu items. I had my favorite, the Tostada pizza and it was super good. We also split a spinach artichoke dip, yum!

I've always enjoyed eating at CPK, but last night's experience was bad. The service was bad, the food was bad, and the atmosphere made me feel like they wanted us to eat and go as fast as possible. I had the tricolore pizza. The crust was awful, hard and old. The salad toppings on top of the pizza was still in the shape of the cup they used to determine quantity. Plus, to make things worse, I asked to include $4.00 chicken breast. They gave it to me after they served the pizza. The chicken were small, very thin slivers of burnt chicken. Bad bad bad. My wife had the Thai chicken salad. It was very underdressed and again hardly any chicken. To me her salad seemed like cheap coleslaw with that crispy white noodles and little chicken. My kids had the Mac and cheese. I was definitely irritated because the noodles were dry and they barely put any cheese on the noodles. They didn't even mix the two. About the only thing they got right were our drinks. Overall, I am going to stop eating at thud particular CPK. I'm taking my money elsewhere.

There are a lot of new salads and pizza here. The peach salad has glazed walnuts, dry cranberries, spinach, different type of lettuce & cheese This was very good

Emily H.

Pretty overpriced..if you ask me.. I've been here twice and I did not really enjoy the food or the ambiance of the location. The pizza is pretty good though, although again, I say it's overpriced.. The service is great. They are all very friendly and attentive. Maybe I should try a few more plates of food from this place before I can give my best judgement.

Hannah C.

I use to eat here a lot but last time I went I was really disappointed. The portion was ridiculous...the pasta we order was like a kid's size meal and THEY NO LONGER CARRY THE PEIKING DUCK PIZZA. I know not many people have tried that pizza but it really is the best. Hosin sauce, duck meat, cheese, onion shavings, and fried wonton skin......I am really sad as I go there specifically for this pizza...My husband and I usually order 2 so we don't fight over it..... I wish they would bring it back---I would definitely go back if they do.

not the best pizza but its alright. the one at vegas was better. had the bbq chicken pizza, lettuce wraps and both were ok. kinda overpriced too! i wouldn't consider randomly going to this place unless its a special occasion or something important.

My wife and I ate here. We've eaten here 3-4 in the past 2 years. My impressions - Pluses : * friendly, attentive service and greeters * food is pretty consistent * menu is updated quite regularly to add new items Negatives : * 'upsell' mentality by the wait staff. CPK charges extra for anything you want added to your dishes (example : avocado $2.50) and the wait staff aggressively try and 'upsell' to you all of the time. It gets annoying ! * prices have gotten pretty high. Wow, this place is not such a great value anymore !

Claire L.

gotta try Avocado Club Egg Rolls!!!!! it's soooo good and a full order is soooo filling!!! you can't even compare this with Cheesecake factory's!!! CPK has it all :D this dish is to be shared with someone :PP for pizza i would recommend Hawaiian BBQ chicken pizza!!!!! service is great, can't complain!!

Mariana A.

Had the buffalo pizza today which of course was delicious but then again buffalo pizza can never be bad. Everything was fresh and tasty. We also ordered a carne asada pizza and the meat tasted so good, you can definitely taste the quality. the service was great the young lady was very attentive and helpful, but didn't crowd over us the entire time.this place is awesome but the only thing is they seem to never have deals or specials. I like to be thrifty when eating out so if a place has a good happy hour or deals I love it, Sar if it sounds cheap but in this work economy sometimes we need to be! And it's also very hard to get yourself to try new things there. I'm always worried it wont compare to what I already know is good. But overall it was really good and I'm sure I will go back but not anytime soon.

Kat L.

I've been here a lot of times, but my experience a few days ago was awesome. I think they changed their manager or something but everyone was on top of their game. The hostess was super nice and attentive. She told me there was a short wait so I waited until there was a spot for us at the bar. After sitting at the bar for a few minutes and a table freed up, she asked if I wanted the table still. I'm surprised she even remembered me since there were tons of people that day. Great memory. After we ordered, we received a plate of warm bread and olive oil (without asking) by a friendly employee. Awesome! Our server was also very attentive. She refilled our drinks and always checked on us. She didn't give me a hard time when I requested a dish they used to have and not on their current menu. Very pleasant experience... keep up the good work!

My D.

We were at Santa Anita mall picking up some things and just went to eat at CPK for lunch. I ordered the raspberry lemonade which was super refreshing. The half size Chinese chicken salad was good. I just wished the lettuce was a bit more fresh and not just the white ends. My boyfriend's BBQ chicken Hawaiian pizza was good. The crust was pretty good. Everything was decent. Just a regular lunch that filled us up. We drop in and out every now and then.

Ray N.

Typical chain restaurant -- but I'm determined to write a review since I've checked in here. Lunch portions are always better here, just because it's a little cheaper. The food here is pretty delicious, but is probably more on the pricy end for me. Good appetizers in my opinion, would be the avocado rolls -- although it's not a huge portion. So boo to that. For entrees, I usually enjoy the Thai Chicken Pizza -- it's such a unique pizza, that only CPK would be carrying it. For pastas, I like the Tequila Chicken Fettucine, it's just simply amazing with the creaminess and a hint of lime, making this dish not too overbearing with the creaminess. On top of that, you can definitely taste the freshness of the olive oil (as weird as that may sound). Service here is always amazing. I don't think I've ever had a bad waiter/waitress. In fact, one time I was so hesitant on trying a dish, the waitress told me if I didn't enjoy it that I can always exchange for a different item. HOW AWESOME IS THAT?! Overall, I love it here. I normally don't like pizza, but this place always has a pizza my heart (get it? haha). I would definitely come back whenever I'm in the mood for pizza! Turn Ons: - Great food & service. Turn Offs: - Pricing -- it's not the cheapest.

Johnson G.

Things have changed with CPK, and mostly not for the better. I will give credit for revamping the starter bread. Slices of sourdough loaves and herb-infused olive oil. Ingenious. The pizza crust is too thin and soggy in the middle and too well done (large bubbles and dark crust) along the edges. And Mrs. G didn't like that there was no avocado or guacamole with the chipotle chicken pizza (they give you a lime crema sauce now). The Works pizza is spicier than I expected, good toppings. But it's the crust that holds a pizza together, and this crust falls apart. I think we'll just get the tiramisu to go from here on out. They've haven't messed with that.

Baby D.

I love the food here. Their pastas are amazing and my favorite of almost any restaurant. I went here with my boyfriend and his brother recently, and altogether, our bill was $50 for 3 people. This place is definitely not cheap. I recommend the kung pao spaghetti- it's what i always order. My boyfriend ordered the works pizza... i was not impressed by their pizza at all. They skimp on the cheese, and pizza is supposed to be cheesy. My #1 complaint about here is the portions... for a $13 pasta, i'd like to eat my fill and not still be hungry. Other places have pasta for a few dollars cheaper and you get enough to take home for another meal. At CPK, that's not the case.
(5)
Alan K.

I have to be honest, the only thing that I can credit CPK for is that they're the reason why I started aiming to cook better than restaurants. I guess I set the bar a little too low. FOOD QUALITY: Being a frequent customer over a span of at least 5 year period, I've seen CPK during it's former glory days to now a frozen shell of the past. Portions have gotten smaller. Quality has gone down. In particular, I find that their pizzas don't really do a good job fusing the flavors of the dough, the sauce, and the toppings together. Nothing here gives a 'WOW' factor, and it's okay at best.

Ken S.

Ordered chicken breast sandwich. Chicken was raw. I should know by know if u go to a pizza place order Italian chicken dishes only!!!! The piece of chicken used to make this sandwich was about 3 oz if that. It took me a few seconds to even find the chicken so i could show the manager. I could only imagine if Chef Ramsey was there how many plates and pieces of chicken would be flying around. Back to the sandwich which is on a huge piece of bread with lettuce , tomatoes and very small serving size chicken piece. It was awful.

Eva I.

Ah, what happened to the free bread and butter? After we sat and ordered, I waited and waited. I noticed some tables did get their bread and butter.. Then I wondered maybe it's because they ordered soup or drinks or maybe even paid for it. I wasn't bold enough to ask.. but reading other reviews, it seems like you do have to ask to get the free bread now. (Minus one star.) The food that we ordered- quinoa salad and pear gorgonzola thin crust. The quinoa salad is a new item on the menu, it was good! My mom and I both liked the pairing of the ingredients and the flavor of it. If you have tried the quinoa salad from Costco, this one is just as good if not better with the feta cheese, sundried tomatoes, asparagus, and pine nuts! The portion is small though. The pear gorgonzola thin crust was average. The crust itself was crunchy on the edge and chewy in the center. It was alright.. The amount of pear and gorgonzola they used is just ridiculously little. There were a total of 7 thinly sliced pears over the whole pizza. The gorgonzola was almost non-existent. I had to dig through the pile of greens in the middle to point out the gorgonzola to my mom. The caramelized onions on the pizza stood out and sort of made up for the lack of pear and gorgonzola! They might as well called it the caramelized onion pizza.

The service stood out more than the food this trip to CPK. Our server's name was Chris I believe (from Arcadia). He was really attentive and great with the water refills as well as making sure that everything was fine during our meal. I ordered the Thai Chicken pizza with honey wheat dough and it was not as great as it was when I last had it, but nevertheless, still good. We also ordered the Arugula and Asparagus salad on their small bites menu which was light and refreshing, a great starter to a pizza meal. There was nothing else that really stood out to me. CPK was always one of those places where I just expect to have 'OK' food. So I guess it met my expectations in terms of the quality of food but exceeded my expectations in terms of the overall service from the hostess to the waiters and servers. Kudos to the manager for arranging a kind staff!

Rocio C.

Gosh the only reason I'd be back is for that words-won't-do-justice butter cake. Other than that the food is bland and way overpriced. Next time we'll hit Cheesecake Factory for lunch and head here for that glorious cake.

Jessica W.

I thought that I would try something out of my comfort zone since I'm such a picky eater and mostly like and eat American and Chinese food so I decided to go to CPK with my two cousins for lunch. We ordered the crispy macaroni and cheese, spicy chicken tinga quesadilla, and two different pizzas. The crispy macaroni and cheese was good. I didn't like the spicy chicken tinga quesadilla though. I ordered a mango lemonade which was really good but a little too sweet. I wouldn't come here or to any other CPKs again because it's not my kind of food. The female employee and our waiter was nice and professional though.

Ellen I.

Came here with the boyfriend on a Sunday night and literally had one of the most irritating waits. We sat down and waited for about 20 minutes with no one coming by to ask us about drinks/ordering/etc, even when we flagged down multiple servers about us having waited for a while. We ended up just leaving after waiting even longer, and they didn't even notice. They served several other parties who came well after we did, which was all the more irritating. Horrible service, or rather lack of service at all. Disappointed, annoyed, and still hungry. ihy cpk.

I wouldn't come here again. Kevin was our server and a poor one at that. It took forever to get bread and butter and when our pizza arrived it was cold, oh and they totally forgot our salad...needless to say, our experience was awful. Oh, I almost forgot, Kevin our waiter never came back. Cheryl ended up serving us, she was sweet, too bad we didn't have her from the get go. Oh well, no more CPK for me.

It is a very good restaurant but lately the pasta is very dry, even if you ask for extra sauce for your fetuccine, ravioli, mac & cheese, it still very dry!!

My family and I have been loyal customers to this California Pizza at the Santa Anita Mall next to Macys. However, the last couple of times it's hard not to notice that the bathrooms are DISGUSTING and the smell is over powering, the windows are dirty and the carpets should seriously either be cleaned or removed. A food place with that much traffic should consider not having carpet due to the stench that comes from food and drinks spilling on it. The California Pizza in Burbank is much cleaner.

Honestly, I only come here for one thing - the chicken tequila fettucini. It's my absolute FAVORITE pasta. However, it seems like they've undergone new management and started making some changes. For some reason, the chicken tequila is not as good as it used to be. It lacks flavor and it's extremely disappointing. I've given it 3 tries and they've all been a let down. I started going to other CPKs and theirs is definitely still delicious. I'd still come here for the great service (hence the 3 stars) and good apps.

First time eating at a CPK. Excellent experience all throughout. From the no wait, to the avocado egg roll, quesadilla, and white pizza with bacon. Delicious! The service is great. Two waitresses checked on us time-to-time to see how we were doing. They even gave us a drink refill right on time without asking us first. Thumbs up!

This CPK has been at the same location for over 20 years. It is located on the 2nd floor near the Macy's. There is two dining area for this CPK location: Inside or Outside (but technically, it is still indoors). I highly recommend that you sit inside unless you want everyone walking around the mall stare at you as you stuff your face with their delicious pizza or pasta. Really love the service at this location. The server are always friendly and tentative at this CPK location. Lunch during the weekends are hectic at this location. I personally don't have a favorite dish to order, but I do love their strawberry lemonade. This CPK is perfect if you are tired from shopping and need to relax your feet for a moment.

I ordered the Thai pizza and my wife ordered california club. The thai pizza wasn't that bad, the peanut sauce inside reminds of the peanut sauce that banh mi cali has for their spring rolls if anyone know what that is. The california club on the other hand had so much greens on it that the flavor of it was really more of a "salad with bread" than a pizza with salad on top. One thing that I didn't like was the fact that we didn't get small bread with oil. It was weird because we swore that they gave it before so we didn't really ask. But then we noticed that all of the servers were asking the new patrons if they wanted bread which we obviously didn't get asked and we obviously didn't have any plate on our table for us to snack on before the main meal came. This made us feel alienated looking at other peoples tables wonder why we were singled out. In the end our food came so we'd rather just eat our food but the experience wasn't that great. The plus is that we sat outside and it's kind of fun watching people go by. Overall food was alright, I wasn't expecting much. Just the experience just made it feel worst.

Specialty pizzas are why one comes here, which they do OK for a chain. Kids menu helps but nothing special and not particularly inexpensive. Busy on weekends but service OK once seated.

I've been here on various occasions. It was busy today. I was here with my ex husband, his son and our daughter for lunch. The server did his best, but it seemed that he was overwhelmed. We had passable service. The food was consistent. Nothing impressive about this CPK.

Heather G.

Sure, it's a chain restaurant, but ... Was shopping and Santa Anita, and decided to give this CPK a try. Excellent, quick and attentive service (sat at the bar). Huge portions for the $. Delicious food. (Ordered half Caesar Salad and split a personal pizza with guest and it was more than enough.)

Ann Q.

WOW! When was the last time I went to a CPK? There's just sooo many great authentic pizza joints out there that you really kinda just steer clear of these chain restaurants you know?! But for some reason I had a craving for some Shrimp Kung Pao Spaghetti so kidnapped the other panda so we can go satisfy our bellies... So the complimentary bread they used to give comes with butter right? Well... I guess everyone is trying to go the healthier route... bread came with a side of olive oil and herbs. Still yummy, but I kinda missed the butter... at the waiting area they displayed a new Chickenpox Tequila Fettuccine, looked soooo good, had to try it! BF on the other hand LOVES Pizza! He got the Wild Mushroom pizza with Truffle Oil. We shared the Asparagus + Arugula Salad (SM Plate) The salad was our favorite of the night! That's saying something... Lightly dressed, clean and fresh, sundried tomatoes were tart and flavorful, with the combination of the lemon vinaigrette, almond and parmesan cheese, this salad we divine! The mushroom pizza came out looking dry... only because the truffle oil was served on the side.. WTF REALLY!? Ok.....?? Normally the chef would brush on the truffle oil so the pizza is evenly coated... Pshhh.... mushroom tasted great, like fresh produce good. Pizza dough was flat but not flat bread, and it felt like it need higher heat in the oven because the dough was under soft and flimsy Pasta, great flavors, but pasta texture not so much... didn't feel like fresh pasta, felt like expired pasta, not sure how to explain it... no boing? No chewiness? Just hard, and not al dente hard.... bell peppers were not cut properly... I'm big on foods presentation, so there was lazy chopping going on in the kitchen that night I'll stick with my usuals, kung pao spaghetti w shrimp! Nom NOM!

My friends ordered to-go pizzas from them. The pizzas taste pretty good. I believe hey ordered three different types. One of them are vegetarian so I didn't try. The other two are typical pepperoni kind of pizzas but they are all good. One thing to mention is that the bread on the side is too soft and not as good as I would expect

Petite wedge - Lettuce goes really well with the bacon, egg, and tomato. This is good if you want some salad-y stuff but don't want a BIG salad. One thing I don't like is that the blue cheese dressing is a little too heavy for me. Asparagus and arugula salad - This salad portion is just right. I love the cheese they have on top, but if you're not a fan of cheese... it could be a little too much. Crispy mac n cheese - The mac n cheese is really "cheesy", so I love it. The portion is also just right for my cheese craving. Caramelized peach salad - I've ordered this salad bijillion times and I never got tired of it! I normally hate salad that I feel like a sheep chewing on grass..., but along with peaches and roasted pecans, this salad is one of my favorite at cpk. Pizzas - I've tried almost all of CPK's pizzas. My two favorites are Hawaiian and California club. I like Hawaiian on thin crust because you would want to taste the pineapple, ham and tomato sauce all at once, but California club is better on hand-tossed original because it has so many different (and yummy) ingredients that only a thick crust can carry all those.

Wish I could give this place more stars, but the food is just not that good. The hot food that comes out, is served cold or luke warm. Service is friendly so it does deserve 2 stars for that.

I ordered for takeout today. The lady on the phone was very sweet she even told me about another dish that went with my order and explained the rewards program. The guy at the counter was helpful and we made small talk while he packed my order. I was offered water too. Yay! First time here and I am coming again soon! Thanks CPK Santa Anita. And of course, the food was bomb!

Been to many California Pizza kitchens and normally they are good. This place I will avoid. The Chinese Chicken Salad came out with brown lettuce and terrible. They usually have good salads but it didn't even look appetizing. Maybe if I just stuck with the pizza it would have been good but not only is the food inferior the service is quite bad. And judging by watching other people I think others would agree.

They give the worst service ever! I ask for no mayo and no tomato, what did I get!? Loads of tomato and mayo in my sandwich When I ate their, every time I asked for something they were out of! So disappointed with how this location came out to be! They need to step up their game or shut down!

Lawrence S.

Terrible service! Although my girlfriend and I got seated a quarter till close we weren't greeted and not to mention the host gave us a death stare. We weren't aware of the time, but once we got seated I had time to use the restroom and when I got to my table we still weren't greeted. Had we known that they were about to close we wouldn't have gone and that was our mistake. Sad part we had my daughter and needed to feed her. We ended up leaving and getting a pretzel. TERRIBLE SERVICE! If you are in the customer service industry learn a thing or two on providing quality customer service. This is a Thursday night!

Very expensive for cookie cutter food. $13 for half salad BBQ chicken. $20 for spinach spaghetti. Each of these items were pretty average tasting. Wait staff was ok, could be better.

I Had never been to a California pizza kitchen before yesterday. When it was thrown out as a possible location for lunch after my sister's graduation ceremony, I was sceptical. I was glad to be pleasantly surprised. The wait staff were friendly and helpful. The food was quite good and filling. Very large portions of the full salad. Nice vegetarian options, which my sister loved. Light yet filling, I will definitely be going back.

Joyce Y.

came here after being shocked by the long wait for kirin buffet. they had a valentines weekend special - 1 appetizer, 2 entrees, and 1 dessert for $30. we got 3 sets of that. viet and i ordered - the tortilla wraps, a hawaiian pizza and bbq chicken salad, and butter cake for dessert. the food was a-okay, typical of CPK, all tasted fine, but nothing extraordinary. pizza was a little disappointing for a place that is all about their pizza. what was really meh about this CPK was our waitress. we had to ask several times, and several different people for things before we got what was requested. water for instance, we constantly had to ask several waiters for waters to begin with, and then for refills. secondly, the check came out wrong - 2 of the sets were charged $30 each like advertised but the 3rd set was charged up individually and ended up pricier than the deal - this was eventually fixed. all in all, typical cpk, better left for high school get togethers.

I usually don't like pizza, but California Pizza Kitchen is an exception. The pizza and pasta there has Asian influence and has lots of variety. They even have the lettuce wrap with shrimp or beef which can be found in any Cantonese restaurant. I also like to watch the little painted pizza boxes hanging on the wall, admiring the human creativity at the meanwhile. It is my to-go place in the Santa Anita Fashion Park after the shopping around.

Kayden H.

Been coming here on and off for awhile, had a chance to try the new menu and realize I missed the old one. Miss the free bread they use to give and the other appetizers in the old menu. Pizza still good but different from what I remember. Service was great, got everything we wanted in a timely manner. Don't think I will be coming back anything soon.

Vicky M.

It's just not the same service or food that used to be served when it first opened. The hostess was nice, but our waiter did not seem like she even wanted to be there. Do NOT get the Mac and Cheese small plate, they're just defrosted pieces of fried mac and cheese with bland sauce.

Hi my name is Glo, I hope some of you at Danita Anita mall remember me, it was a great place to work up until 4months ago when cpk allowed 3woman mangers run that cpk , they have no heart all they care about is making there store sell , they don't even care about there customers even they say they do they really don't, if a customer complaints about something they feel it's there servers fault they get reed of them!! I can tell you that it happen to me, I have been serving there for two years , they got reed if me for customers complaint, it's sad they knew I have a son that has cancer , lost his leg , will never see life as a older man, I was paying his medical bills they did not care only profits. If you like to eat at a place that only care about profits not really about people , please eat there or if you have family that are I'll need your love , care please don't support California pizza kitchen. Go to other California pizza kitchen. If you like to know more please look me up Glo. I would like to tell you more, mothers against place that don't really care!!!!

Despite me coming here more often than I'd like to, I really really really dislike CPK, especially this location. If it weren't for my best friend Jessica C., who loves this place to pieces, and the occasional family member who wants to dine here as it's nearby, I would never visit. I've been here more times than I can remember since the restaurant has been around for ages, dating back to my primary school years. CPK has always been a mediocre chain restaurant to dine in if there were no better options because at least, the food is consistent. However, considering the past couple of times I've eaten here, I really wish it'd close for something better to move in. Service is absolutely terrible. Yeah, I get that it's CPK and quality service isn't expected but I still do have some standards. During one of my most recent visits on a weekend night, it was no surprise the restaurant was busy. The wait was about 30-40 minutes long, but the host said it'd be okay if we left our number and walked around the mall. He reassured me he would call us when our table was ready. We walked around the mall for a bit and ended at Brookstone's, spending the rest of our remaining waiting time in glorious massage chairs. Twenty minutes passed... Thirty minutes passed... We then realized it'd been well over an hour, and still no phone call. We decided to stay in the chairs for a bit longer and eventually went back 90 minutes after we had left our number with the host. The restaurant was empty, as it was already around 9:30 pm, yet we never received a call. We told a different host what happened and the only thing he did was quickly apologize and seat us. I'm sorry, you just wasted an hour of our time, and the only thing we get is an insincere apology? During another recent visit, after the incident above, they really put my patience to the test. Going in on a weeknight, the restaurant was practically empty. Yet the host refused to seat us because "the restaurant was behind". I told the host I understood, but asked if we could we at least be seated. He dumbly repeated that the restaurant was behind. While we waited, we discussed leaving and going to another restaurant, and miraculously, we were seated in one of the many open tables. Our server Jassmine, was just as annoying. While things started decently at first, the later it got, the worse it became. She only came up to us twice during our meal to check on us and never offered to refill our drinks; we always had to ask. When we asked for chopsticks for the Kung Pao pasta, she forgot and never brought them; my mom actually got up and went looking for some, until another server asked if she needed help. For most of the meal, Jassmine was off walking around, handholding (yeah idk), and chatting with other servers. It wasn't until a manager noticed, that she stopped talking -- yet, she never came to check on us. I get it's a slow night, but that doesn't excuse why there are empty dishes and empty glasses on our table. Are we supposed to refill our water ourselves too? There's not much they can do to rectify what happened as it's already in the past, so it's safe to say I'm going to make it a point to never come here again. I don't care how badly any of my friends or family members want to dine here, I refuse to step another foot into this location. Sorry Jessica C.

The workers here always very nice. They do the best they can to make you happy. The one thing that bothered me was their pizza making. You can watch the guys toss the pizza dough up and it is constantly brushing up against the side of their wall above them. I still order the tostada pizza because I keep telling myself.. since every dough gets brushed up there it should be pretty clean. LOL Self denial. xD

Leana N.

SERVICE was great. Although when I asked the server for butter for the bread she replied, "We don't do that anymore, we serve oil & herbs with the bread." I said OK but I found that off putting because whats the big deal about getting me some butter? The new bread is a baguette that does not taste fresh and isn't as good as their previous bread that was offered. The decorations were old and the painted pizza boxes on the wall were dusty. It seems as though CPK is trying to cut costs with the bread/cheap napkins and it clearly shows.Though oddly enough when we asked for our food to go, they placed it in a large container and in a enormous togo bag; which seemed unnecessary and wasteful. But that's not my biggest ISSUE here... Later on in the evening when I chomped in to my CPK pizza leftovers I bit something that was awfully chewy. I thought well maybe it was a really rubbery mushroom so I swallowed it. I dove in for my second chew when I felt that odd rubbery sensation on my teeth again. I STOPPED chewing. I pulled the unknown ingredient out of my mouth and it was a HUGE knotted up RUBBER BAND!!!!!! I untied it and showed it in disgust to my family. "Look what the hell I just found BAKED in our pizza!!" I found it really appalling that my previous bite and swallow was a rubber band also, from the same taste and chew that I had assumed to be a mushroom. My friends and family told me to call and complain. It was already too late in the evening for that. Also I was probably going to get from the manager a doubtful "Are you sure?" And "We're sorry." So other then a stomach ache and an unpleasant experience to tell friends and family; there is nothing I gained from dining here. I shall not return. My advice to CPK is to train your prep and cooking staff to practice safer food handling/prepping techniques...and when a customer asks for butter with the bread; don't be cheap, YOU go back to the kitchen and get them some damn BUTTER.

I came here for brunch before heading to the shopping malls. I had the Thai Crunch which was really good. Chicken dumplings wasn't bad either. My son had the Thai chicken pizza, tasty!!! Hubby had the shrimp scampi, not at all to his liking. The big slices of the zucchini watered down the shrimp scampi and pasta therefore making it really tasteless. Service was good, but waiting for the check took some time. We also sat outside on the patio, could be why. Always have enjoyed CPK, always coming back

California Pizza Kitchen has been in the Santa Anita mall ever since I could remember the awkward middle school years when we still had Limited Too and Photobunch. And despite the many years that have passed, one thing that has stayed timelessly good has been Arcadia's CPK. Personally, my favorite pizzas are the Pepperoni, Mushroom + Sausage and the Wild Mushroom pizza. The pizzas aren't really big, with about 6 smallish-medium slices. I generally find that the size is perfect for sharing. The crust is thin, slightly crispy and sweet, which sets the pizza apart from its other greasier counterparts. Waldorf Chicken Salad is also delicious! Fresh spinach, arugula, red cabbage, celery, chopped walnuts, apple slices, grapes and grilled chicken gives this salad a unique, fresh twist on your typical salad. It's topped with either blue cheese or balsamic vinegar, making it healthier than a lot of other salads. CPK are geniuses for bringing this sophisticated salad, which originates from New York, into their menu. But I'm not too big on the other dishes. I've had the fish tacos here before but they weren't really memorable. My family happens to like the fettucini, as that is a pretty popular dish among those who don't feeling like having pizza. The prices aren't unreasonable with pizzas costing around $15, but the dishes will cost more than other pizza joints and you'd get a smaller quantity. But hey, CPK is such a central part of the mall that you can't help wandering in every now and then with a craving for some "gourmet" pizza.

Pateel C.

Conveniently in the mall, right next to Macy's. It's usually packed so sitting at the bar is a good option. I love that you can see them making your food..comforting. The food is the same as any CPK location, so you can't go wrong. They have weird outdoor seating inside the mall.. Like a mall patio but inside. Good dining option when you're at the mall. Sidenote: CPK has definitely changed how they make their pizzas over the last 2 years or so. I swear not only is it smaller (which is fine, cause I usually had leftovers), but they skimp on their toppings and sauce. Boo CPK...go back to what worked.

Avocado Rolls tasted like a fried chicken club sandiwch. So good. But the pizza was a little disappointing. I haven't been to CPK in couple years but I remember loving the pizza before. I guess I've been spoiled by artisan pizza around LA or something because I could taste the difference in the crust! The crust at CPK tasted slightly artificial like a frozen pizza straight from the freezer. Why go to a restaurant if it's not going to be freshly made? The toppings on the Original BBQ Chicken tasted good but the crust was terrible.
(2)
Content O.

The hostess is friendly and service is excellent, but UNFORTUNATELY, I still have to give this particular CPK a one star. Here's why: I found a dead fly inside of my complimentary Quinoa Arugula Salad! I found it after taking a few bites! I didn't notify the workers, but quicky took my check and left. I might call the manager today, because I was ABSOLUTELY DISCUSTED!!!! I found dead insects at Asian Restaurants before, but NEVER at an American Chain one. That's because the latter have strict ratings & if things are NOT changed, a worker can be fired... That's gonna be my last time eating there... And by the way... They don't make the best BBQ Chicken Pizza. Louise's Trattoria in Old Town Pasadenaa is much better! The BBQ sauce there has a richer, smokier flavor. All the other ingredients are higher in quality as well... d:o)

"Yummy Yummy I got love in my tummy", one of my favorite chains to go and eat at. I don't know what it is but CPK knows what women want. They want those cute drinks and low calorie small dishes. We want all they have to offer and man they really offer a lot of choices to pick from! I never get bored when I go into CPK. I can get a half salad with a pizza and share it with my friends. Also I could get a few small dishes with a pasta and yes again share it with my friends. My favorites right now: Spinach and Artichoke pizza is a thin crust pizza which is to die for if you love both spinach and artichoke. I'm a fan of veggies soo this pizza is great for me! Even on a diet I still will eat CPK at least once a month and feel guilty free because many of the menu items will show you the calorie content and you gage what you eat! I love it and thank you CPK for making it so simple for me to love you!

Camellia S.

I love CPK but this one is a bit small and doesn't have enough servers. The food is fantastic (get the Thai pizza or any pizza actually) and the shirley temple here always hits the spot (don't judge me). The kids macaroni and cheese is also to die for. I would come here a lot more if they updated and expanded their location a bit.

Monica L.

Friendly service and food came out at a decent time. The BBQ chicken pizza is yum! The bf ordered the garlic alfredo and he ate it in a flash (portion was a bit small though)! Kiwi lemonade was waaaay too sweet for me, but those of you with a sweet tooth will enjoy it. Free refills, which the waitress was very attentive and kept the cups filled even without asking. I had the cobb salad (half portion) which was delicious and the veggies were very fresh! The bacon was smoked and had this AMAZING deep flavor! I will definitely be coming here again!

Kenny N.

I typically go to eat at this place whenever we crave CPK as it's not just close to me but their food/service/decor is great. It's located near Macy's on the 2nd floor at the Westfield Santa Anita Mall and the wait here usually aren't long. I love their BBQ Chicken Salad as it's probably one of the best I've had. The bread they serve is good even if it's cold even though I prefer warm bread better. The pizza I usually get is their Thai Chicken pizza. The taste of the sauce, carrot, chicken and bean sprouts are a good combination. Their service is decent but could definitely be better with more servers.

Angie W.

Wow, I've lost count how many times I've been here. But I still love it! Located near Macy's on the 2nd floor. It has a small "patio" section where you sit in the mall instead of inside the restaurant. Full Bar available. Love the ambiance, very chill. Ask for bread! I've really liked most things on the menu, I need to keep this short, otherwise, I will go through the whole menu :P APPETIZERS Asparagus and Arugula Salad: love the lemon vingarette dressing and wafer thin Parmesan slice, love it all!! One of my fave salads. Korean BBQ Steak Tacos: Not worth it, can be so much better... White Corn Guac & Chips: It's ok, the artichoke dip is so much better. Mediterranean Plate: Meh. Lettuce Wraps: Can be so much better at any chinese restaurant and cheaper!! Not worth it... Spinach Artichoke Dip: MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!!!!!!!!! Yummy in my tummy!!!!!!!!!!! Tuscan Tortilla Soup: YUMMM!!! So good on a rainy day... :) Add extra tortilla strips ;) SALADS Roasted Veggie Salad: YUMMM!!! The veggies are served warm, so GOOD!! Moroccan Chicken Salad: OMG!! My new fave salad!! Love how the flavors come together. Get extra dates!! :) Original BBQ Chicken Chopped: Love love love!!!!!!!!!!!! actually... i love all their salads... SANDWICHES Italian Deli Sandwich: YUMM!!! Love the salami meats, cheeses, and the basil makes it sooo good!!! I like it with the Szechuan (spicy peanutbettery) slaw :) Cranberry Walnut Chicken Salad Sandwich: Meh, its better from home. PIZZAS Love: Jamaican Jerk Chicken, Vegetarian with Japanese Eggplant, Margherita, Sicilian Like: Roasted Artichoke & Spinach, Original BBQ Chicken, Pear & Gorgonzola, Meh: Four Seasons, B.L.T Also, the Kung Pao Spaghetti is pretty good too. Love that there's normally not a long wait :)

We come here for some quick shakes when we're at the Arcadia Mall. Normally we wouldn't think of shakes at CPK, but hey... when your wife works there, you sometimes have to take advantage of the perks! This time around our experience was very cool. The manager served us and my wife asked him what a spritzer was... fair enough... not many people know what it is... serious, did you ?? Anyways, the manager said, it's a creamy, sparkling type fruit drink. "Wanna try it out?! I'll get you some"... how cool was that?!?! He hooked us up w/ a free spritzer... not just a little sampler cup either.. the real deal!! Mmm... typing this up now I wonder if this would've been done if my wife didn't work for CPK... hm, this review is actually becoming more and more inapplicable to the majority of the population the more and more I type. Either way, the point is... he didn't have to, but he did, and his hospitality made the experience memorable. I am confident to say that if the rest of his staff exemplifies the same qualities that he does that the dining experience would be great here.

This CPK is conveniently located next to Macy's at the Arcadia Mall but the food is not as impressive as some other CPK I have tried. They are not "bad", but definitely didn't meet my expectation the first time I tried it. I stopped by a few more times while shopping at the mall but I still can't give them any higher rating. The service and atmosphere there are good, nothing to complain about. It's pretty casual in my opinion, not as fancy as some other CPK but the servers are friendly, professional, and quick to respond to your request.

IYelpFor U.

CPK used to be good, but it is not worth the money these days. Their pizzas are known to be sweet and small, and if you've ever had pizzas from places like Avanti, or even from an authentic Italian joint like 'Charlie's Trio' then CPK is considered nothing more than just a quick fix. I can't speak for everything else on their menu but I can definitely chime in for the pastas -- and sorry to say but they just plain ol' sucked! I've had them in Vegas, then back home in the Pasadena location, and finally, this location and they're all consistently sub-par. A friend bought me some take-out (Jambalaya) from this kitchen and it was the biggest turn off from beginning to end. First off, whoever prepared the dish made it with Fettuccine...(wtf?)...instead of Linguine, even though the original from the menu (which I've had three times in the past) was Linguine. I was furious as hell when I opened the tray at home. Somehow, the food also tasted extremely bland and at the same time packed with lots and LOTS of sodium! The only thing my palette picked up was cumin, and the dish was lacking many of the essential spices that needed to make a great Jambalaya. The thing that got me most was how they packed the two slices of bread along with the little butter packets; as I wasn't thinking anymore since the dish was so screwed up that when I peeled opened the butter it has completely melted to a watery state and dripped all over the place. Thanks to the idiot who: 1. Made the awful 'fettuccine' Jambalaya instead of with linguine, 2. Put the cold butter on top of the hot take out! ....and for this, CPK is an epic fail!

This place is what it is: a mall restaurant with mediocre food. The food was what we thought it would be. The standard things I always get that are decent are the California Club Pizza and the Mushroom Pizza. I decided to go out of my comfort range and order their BBQ chicken salad last time and was kind of disappointed with the size of the serving. I'm not asking for a mountain of food, but considering how expensive the meal was, it was surprising. I would return only because I have a gift card here and it needs to get used.

This the second time I order take out from this place and they forget to include my salad dressing. I called back and the manager then suggested that I could drive back to pick up my dressing that they forgot to give me. I refused to drive 45 minutes for dressing.

Sorry CPK, you get a fail in this location. My gf and I came here for lunch. We were starving and ordered a tostada pizza and a salad. Both were vegetarian dishes and my gf has specific dietary restrictions, so she doesn't eat meat at all. But... we found chunks of chicken in our pizza. The manager was nice enough to take it off the bill, but still... sucky mistake and we both felt awkward and didn't want to eat anymore after that. It boggles my mind they have to be very mindful of Gluten allergy but when it comes to vegetarian options... there are chunks of meat found sometimes... sad

This place is a slap on the face for real pizza makers. I don't know what keeps this place in business but Red Baron frozen pizza tastes just as good.

I ate here with my parents for the first time last week in over three years. The service was okay; they were kind of more on the pesky side if you ask me. The food was bland. We got: the caesar salad with salmon: Salmon was over-cooked. veggie pizza on wheat: it was tasty, but not spectacular or worth the $14-15. thai pizza: we ordered it on wheat but they gave us regular crust. also, i remember this pizza being pretty amazing back in the day. Or maybe it's because I've had the same variety at YardHouse and they knock it out of the park. either way, it was very bland, had hardly any vegetables, and they were not liberal at all with the peanut dressing. I wouldn't come back here. I make better pizzas at home on my pizza stone.

I like CPK but i do not like their lines. Their waiting list is what keeps me away from this particular location... Love their thai crunch salad with dressing on the side.

Situated in a upscale newly renovated mall, this particular branch has been here for years. It's corporate, but not bad. You can find the same dish here in CA as in South Korea. Food: Innovative yet traditional. Personal favorites are: Chicken Tequila Fettuccine, Chicken Milanese, The Original BBQ Chicken Chopped, Thai Crunch Salad, The Original BBQ Chicken. Service: Professional and well trained. However, somewhat put off with the "every opportunity to up-selling" they employ. Server starts off by suggesting alcohol. If not, how about a specialty soft drink? Asked for ice water, they follow with bottle imported brands. Plain old tap for me. If you order an appetizer, they suggest two. Ask for bread, "how about focaccia? if you don't like it, I'll take it off of the bill". Would you like to add a soup? Coffee at the end? How about room for dessert? Okay, you get what I mean, anything to get that check average up. Decor: Trendy when they first open, probably needs a bit of a make over. But of course I'm nitpicking now. It's still nice and clean. TIP: You can pick up at Costco a $100 gift card for $80. Take a date, the outdoor mall is nice. Very modern, very trendy. CPK is a nice place to stop and eat. I like the food. Just slightly pricey, but worth the treat. Thumbs up, but let me know what you think.

They always have unique pizzas at CPK you can't get elsewhere. Their Thai Chicken and Buffalo Chicken are my fave. The set-up of the restaurant is kinda awkward...but it's in a mall...you can't expect too much...

I've become wary of restaurant chains, especially those in malls. This CPK is no exception. Yes, I understand it's busy, but in the retail industry, you don't insult the customer before they're even seated and have ordered. We had put in our name and waited the estimated 15 min. They started calling out names for the parties of 2 and I started noticing that the people being called came after us. We checked with the host and he said he had already called our name. Total BS when we are sitting right next to you! Already off on the wrong foot, we were seated outside by the entrance. 15 minutes later and our order was finally taken. I'm thankful that one of the hostesses came and helped us get drinks 10 minutes after we had been seated when our server was busy with her other tables. The food we ordered that came was alright, but given the experience and the sub-par food, I'd try somewhere else in the Westfield mall.

The only reason why I keep coming back here is because I have CPK gift cards that I am trying to use up. I still am not a fan of their overly priced food. With that said, I did finally find an item that I liked. Their white corn guacamole with chips plate is good. I always order that plate along with something else to-go. I prefer sitting outdoor, near the man-made pond. Given how pleasant SGV weather has been during this past two or three weeks, I don't understand why more people eat out there. I finally had to bump up their rating because of how friendly and professional all their staff are. The management at this CPK location is definitely top-notch.

For a chain, CPK is up there with the best. That does not mean it is wonderful in the context of the rest of the world, but it does mean you can find a really good meal here. I generally do not care for California style pizza, but the pies at CPK are surprisingly good. Also, the Thai salad is a very tasty way to get you meal started.

Quite impressed with this location. I was here twice in the past month for dinner, and this was extremely convenient for both of the times that I was here. My most recent time was with my best friend. We had the spinach & artichoke dip to start, and shared a chinese chicken salad, in which they helped us "split" it with no charge. I also ordered a glass of moscato. Aside from that, I have been here over 10 times, and through those different opportunities I have tried the following dishes: The BBQ Chicken pizza - delicious, and highly recommended! The Cobb Salad - Pretty standard, nothing special but always a "safe" bet The duck pizza - Pretty yummy but too pungent and too drenched in Hoisin sauce. The jambalaya pasta - decent, but only ordered once. Thought it was too spicy. A ravioli dish - It was good, but the portion was too small. I wasn't full. And other random pastas, but I honestly don't remember their names. For drinks, I have only had their Moscato, Prosecco (which is in a mini bottle, poured out in a glass), and a tasting of their "Pink Moscato." I've had great experiences with them thus far, with attentive service. I hope to have more times to try their other items!

I haven't ever minded the overpriced meals here, as a vegetarian I can always find something to eat here and they have so many options for everyone. Some of my favs are the plain cheese, pear & Gorgonzola, and the BLT pizza (minus bacon, add avocado - which can also be ordered as the club with no bacon, no chicken... not sure why but the combo of the salad on top of the pizza has always been yummy to me). They also have a good Waldorf salad, which I minus the meat on as well. Alcohol here is expensive as well, but they do make a yummy raspberry lemon-drop. So, on to the review with this location, as I had a bad experience at this CPK: I was seated right away, outside the restaurant, which I didn't mind, except he walked us over to a table that had a huge mess on the floor. Food everywhere. My foot slipped in some as I sat down. My boyfriend saw and told the host in a polite way: "You may want to sweep over there". The host must have thought by my boyfriend saying it nicely, that it was optional. He started to go on about how they only clean the floors at night when they close!! After waiting 20 minutes or so to find parking, having my feet in other peoples food and almost slipping, I decided I couldn't really accept that response and as nicely as I could, told the host "the better answer would be to ask us if we would like another table or bring someone over here to sweep. If someone spilled liquid on the floor you would clean it up so no one slips - I slipped on this food, it's the same thing!" He looked at me like I was completely nuts, said OK and walked away. My feet stayed in food the rest of the time we were there as he glared at me through the window. I wondered if my food would be OK and free of spit. It came out looking OK except it was quite overcooked. I tried to eat it... crap, it's hard as a rock and tearing up the roof of my mouth. I take the salad off the pizza and underneath is burned cheese. My waitress was nice and offered to have them make a new one and asked if I wanted soup, but I can't eat the soup (meat). But she did say they had a new dough and maybe it was that, that was different. It was definitely overcooked and you could see the burned cheese and dough, as was my boyfriends but he was too hungry to complain much (except to say there is more meat on the Sicilian frozen CPK pizza than the one he got at CPK). The second pizza wasn't overcooked and all was fine. I just couldn't believe the excuse about cleaning. I should have taken a picture, it was too gross! Update: I sent them an email about the experience and got back a "we will look into it" email and never heard back. I did end up going here once more because I had a gift certificate and the food was decent and the place was more cleaned up, but the outside still could have used a sweep. My waitresses here have always been nice, I think it's the managers that are incompetent.

I'm in a giant fish tank!!!! Jk. It is just CPK. But really, it looks like a big fish tank with humans dining inside. This CPK location was busy but I was seated in 15 minutes on a Saturday for a party of 2. Try the mango iced tea or mango lemonade. It has freeeeeeeee refills. Freeeeeee! Thai pizza, small shrimp napa salad (around $30). Bomb meal for two. I love the salad with napa cabbage, edamame, avocado, shrimp, cucumber, and miso dressing. Some CPK's use to serve it with crab. My mom liked it and she doesn't like pizza but she did say, "Tastes like Chinese food!" Bahaha... Jadez was a good server and didn't say squat when my mother took my 1/2 glass of mango lemonade when I got my re-fill after saying "Hey they gave you two!"

First time at CPK. I enjoyed the hawaiian bbq chicken pizza, the lettuce wraps, and the carnitas taco. It was delicious. The only thing that was a bit off was that the appetizer came last.

My wife and I were out shopping at the Mall and decided to give this CPK another chance after a not so good experience here while Christmas shopping 5 months ago. Although I had to beg twice for water, after the soda and lemonade we ordered turned up flat and tasting like dish water, the service was better than last time. How hard is it to keep your soda carbonated? I guess that's why they try and push the alcohol and new drink menu a bit much. That's the main reason I'm only giving the place 2 stars, the other is that when the chicken caesar salad came the dressing was very sparse. The server brought more dressing when asked and the bread with olive oil was plentiful, as was the house salad and multi-grain penne pasta with salmon. The portions are huge but the taste was just passable.

Yummm I love CPK!! One of my favorite restaurants at the mall. Their service is usually, if not always, good! It's nice and clean too, which is always a bonus. :) It gets pretty crowded so I'd suggest going earlier to avoid annoying waits. Service: The waiters always come by to check up on me, and they seem happy to help you get anything you need. Often, they give me a new drink even before I finish my first one. I lovelovelove that about them! It makes me feel happy cause I have a brand new drink, haha. Even though their bread isn't that great, they sometimes don't bring it out. Once I went and they forgot entirely, but it's not a big deal. Cleanliness: Yay it's clean! I never have to worry about picking specks off my plate or anything, haha. Bathroom is pretty nice too. Food: CPK's Kung Pao Spaghetti and BBQ chicken pizza are my absolute favorite. I always order them, and when my mom and I go, we usually get those and a Chinese Chicken Salad. The KP Spaghetti can be pretty salty, and the portions are sometimes big but sometimes small.

12/27/2012 3:30pm got sat immediately BUT the server didn't come by for over 5 mins ... Doesn't seem like a big deal but... It wasn't even busy at this time.. Empty tables everywhere .. No peach syrup :( boohoo... I couldn't get the peach ice tea... So after she brings us our water we tell her we're ready to order and she walks away and tells us to wait ....UHM??? People come to eat cause we're hungry!!! .. Whatever so we wait ...and wait...and wait... And decided screw it!! You don't deserve our business... Really? 15 minutes and all you did was bring us is water??

After test driving a lot of cars, my buddy and I were hungry for some real food. GM/Chevrolet/Buick provided hot Dogs, chips, and a soda, but it can only do so much. Good thing we were next door to the Westfield Santa Anita. We had no intentions of going to CPK, but it just happened to go anyways for some good food. CPK is located far from the food court and is located near the Promenade section. We were greeted by a blond female host and asked if we wanted to sit on the counter or table...I said, "BOOTH". She started to look for one and luckily a family was leaving cause I came in...lol. She mumbled something to me and I guess I didn't hear her. When she walked to the booth, she was laughing, "Where did you guys go?" Oh...lol. I haven't been to CPK in awhile and my buddy told me the pizza was enough for two people. Unfortunately, I count as two people. Make that three people. Oh wait..my buddy eats like three people. Make that five all together. Marcella was our original host. When we ordered one pizza, which was the BBQ Chicken with Applewood Smoked Bacon ($13.99), she knew she wouldn't get a big tip from us since we were sharing. I ordered Sierra Mist ($2.50), my friend had ice water ($0.00). While we were waiting, we noticed that the walls were decorated with different pizza boxes. I wonder what the history was behind that. Our order took about 10 minutes and deliciousness was delivered. The first bite was how I imagined it. Tasted sweet and smokey at the same time. I already had 3 slices and my friend wanted more FOOD. So, I finished the pizza and this would be the last time we would see Marcella. My buddy was trying to order pizza, but he was stuttering and I told Marcella that he wanted to order pizza. lol. A Pepperoni Pizza ($11.99). Another 10 minute wait and more deliciousness. I was already getting full and our new server was Pim. She gave us our new pizza. I had one slice of the Pepperoni and I was done. I told you we were eating like five people. I am a big guy, but I don't eat as much. Pizza was very good, but, of course, its specialty pizza. When the check came, my buddy took so long with his card to put in the check folder that Pim was wondering if he was going to pay or not...lol. I joked with her about it and she laughed away with a smile. Whats up with girls with me today? The Suburban "Bourbon Girl", the girls shouting at me, the blond host, and now Pim...lol. Our total was $31.25. I don't know how much tip my buddy gave her. I think it was $33.50 total. The food court was packed and I wasn't sure if we were going to find the table. The food court was enough to shut us up. I had a Great Saturday. I would go to CPK more often, but I think CPK is a once-a-year type place. The Yelp Universe. Where are you traveling today?

Went for dinner here and had the mushroom pizza and jambalya pasta. The pizza was pretty good with a crispy crust and the cheese and mushroom really went well together. The pasta sauce was also good, but the last time i heard they don't serve that type anymore. It's a little pricey (hence the 3 stars), but still has good food.

David T.

I normally get the Fettuccine in the creamy garlic sauce...but today it wasn't so good. Not sure if it was the cook, or maybe a new recipe. I have to say though it wasn't to my liking. We also got the Spinach Artichoke Dip...that was greasy, with a nice layer of oil right on top...can we say "not freshly made?" Todays meal was, to me, a complete disappointment. My wife however, had a wonderful meal with her Lettuce Wraps. This won't stop me from coming here again, but I hope next time its better.

In few words, CPK has changed for the worse. It used to be my favorite until a for-big-profit corporation, Golden Gate Capital (a voracious private equity firm), which has absolutely no interests in quality of foods or service, but only in money. As a result, the quality of foods and service has taken a dip. The menus are full of fat and unhealthy choices. This particular store is managed by a Chinese, whose management skill and style only reinforce the undesirable perception CPK has created for itself. Some customers told me they often found insects in their foods! The floor and table surfaces are not clean and the restroom is filthy. It's sad that what once was a good place to dine has become an eyesore.

As far as CPK's go, you know what you are getting. So all I can say here is that this CPK does the CPK thing right. All our food was wonderful, services was great despite seemingly being slammed, and everyone had a wonderful time.

CPK is J u i c y Always love dining at CPK. They always have a good selection of pizza, pasta, and salads. I love CPK since they are always innovating and catering to the taste of their consumers. I used to always get their thai pasta or kung pao pasta. These days I am in love with their Tricolore Pizza. It's good for a diet since its a flat bread pizza filled with salad, chicken or shrimp or salmon is additional. I always have a good experience at cpk especially the Arcadia location. They are quick and outgoing servers who do a good job with always refilling drinks and making sure you are comfortable. I got the $100 gift card at costco for $80. That is about $20 in savings, it's about a dish and half in savings. I know it's a lot to buy at a time for cpk, but I live close and its pretty convenient for me to just buy take out. I don't recommend the curbside assistance since you have to give them tip just to hand you over the food in your car. It's not that bad to park and just get the take-out inside the mall since cpk is pretty close to the parking lots. Usually the food lasts me for lunch and dinner and the food always tastes great.

Came here for a quick dinner, ordered Thai chicken pizza and avocado egg roll. The egg roll was good as usual, but the Thai chicken pizza was too salty! I wanted to give 2 star and the service was really good. Everybody was super friendly and smiling all the time. May still go again when shopping at the mall.

Andrew W.

What CPK is famous for is their innovativeness with pizzas. Which means, in general stay away from generic Italian stuff like ravioli, chicken breasts, traditional topping pizzas, etc. Some I've tried in the past BBQ chicken: it's good, their signature, but many other places have copied them and can make it as well as they do, so I don't get it often anymore Thai chicken: good, a bit too sweet Carne asada: Ehh, it's pretty spicy with the sauces on it, but other than that it's just a pizza with steak on it Tostada: Don't get it, it just tasted like a piece of bread with lettuce and tortilla strips on it Goat cheese pizza: Goat cheese + caramelized onions on a pizza = yum. It would be more awesome if they didn't skimp on the goat cheese Other people said the spinach and artichoke dip was good. It was, but not nearly $10 good. -1 star for ripping me off.

I've been coming to this location since I could use those kiddie crayons to scribble all over the puzzles they gave to youngin's back then. Back when the santa anita westfield mall was only half the size it is now. With the expansion of the mall in the past couple of years, I'd really recommend that they expand this location as well. Perhaps to a location that would offer outdoor seating? I recently had lunch here and I had forgotten how small this place was. Being that it was a friday, at 130pm-ish we had to wait about 30 mins to get seated. We ended up in a corner next to the glass window. The waitress was very attentive (especially with our beverage refills!) and informative! She let us know what dishes were more popular and which ones she personally perferred. She also made me feel very comfortable asking about what kind of soup base the articoke and broccoli soup was made of (it's milk btw :P ). I don't know about you but that kind of service can be hard to come by nowadays! Being that I work for a company that places customers first, these kind of waitresses/employees are people that keep customers like me coming back for more (: I ended up getting the cranberry walnut chicken salad sandwich with a side of the artichoke and broccoli soup. ($11) it was deeeeee-licious! the soup came with croutons- mmm(: and it was at theee perfect temperature! Hot but not burning all the tastebuds hot. The sandwich was amazing... even after i took it home :D It wasn't drenched in dressing and the bread was nice and fresh. writing this review is making me hungry ): hahahh definitely coming back here soon! :D

Michelle K.

Honestly the only reason I kept coming back here was for the "two in a bowl" with the tortilla soup and chicken chowder and last night we went and the chicken chowder has been taken off the menu. I honestly doubt I'll be returning. First off, the restaurant smells like feet EVERY time I've been there. I've been eating at CPK forever (I used to work in the mall). Service is usually mediocre, food is usually good, and their peach iced tea is delicious. However, the BF and I have been there twice and both times we ordered a Hawaiian BBQ chicken pizza and BOTH TIMES (albeit the 1st time it took them 3 tries) they forgot to put the pineapple on the pizza. We don't like to make a big fuss and I chalk it up to "maybe she just heard us wrong" but no...lo and behold she charged us for the BBQ. At this point I'm annoyed 1) because this is honestly the 2nd time (really 4th) this has happened 2) because she didn't notice the pizza came out wrong 3) because she charged us for it. I'm honestly over CPK and their half ass service and lack of ability to follow an order.

Pizza is not my favorite food but still gave it a try. Avocado Egg Rolls is really good and the Thin Crust Roasted Artichoke + Spinach +Chicken is very ... interesting. never had Spinach on pizza before, it tastes... hmm....healthy i guess, hehe. Not happy with the service, the waitress was kinda absent minded, we asked napkin 2 times and she came back with empty hands. and she even forgot to serve us our bread. Not planning to go back again with so many other good options around.

I came here for lunch and ordered the chicken potstickers and fish tacos. The potstickers were lukewarm and I had to keep dipping it in the sauce for some flavor. I've ordered potstickers years ago and the quality has gone down. The fish in the tacos was not tender on the inside and crispy on the outside and tasted better after I added some salsa. The service is efficient and friendly. I think that if I come here again, I will stick to ordering the pizza and salad. The food is edible but much too overpriced for me to keep returning.

So, usually come here for random pizza cravings but tonight i came here with my mom and sister and ordered the usual for myself, kung pao pasta... bomb! And my sister and mom got the Mediterranean pizza. Personally I thought the pizza was pretty good and flavorful, as for the pasta, it was amazing and awesome as usual. This cpk branch has friendly service,attentive staff, and clean environment. All in all this place deserves a 4 star rating.

I'm a fan of CPK. I love the amount of seasoning they put in their pizza, appetizers, and pasta. Service is good. I like to sit in the patio because my toddler makes a mess and is quite loud. No alcohol is served in the patio fyi. Here are my favorite things to order: bbq chicken salad, sicilian pizza, garlic creamed fetticini, lettuce wrap, and peach italian soda. Here is what i think they need to improve on: the texture of their bread including pizza bread. You have to ask for bread and butter. They don't automatically bring it to you. Their bread is cold and hard. THeir pizza dough isn't crispy enough in my opinion. I like a lil crisp to the bread.

Jessica C.

I'm still loving the BBQ Chicken Chopped Salad + the butter cake. They changed their menu & it looks much better, IMO. I've become MORE fond of CPK because the last two times, something terrible would happen, but the waiter/waitress always went above and beyond to fix it. The last time I went, I had a lot of the salad left over & asked for it to be boxed up. I guess the waiter thought I wanted the avocado egg roll (that my friend ordered) to be boxed up. So, he threw away my salad. Right before I was going to leave, I realized my salad was MIA. I asked the waiter and he was so surprised. He immediately told the manage the situation & the manager had a half-salad made for me to go. Amazing. The previous time, I found a small hair in my salad as I was almost done with it. I didn't want to complain because I was already done with the salad and I wasn't sure if it was my hair or not. But my friend told the waitress the situation. The waitress responded with, "I wish you had told me sooner so I could have brought you a new salad." I don't know why she would think I wanted to eat a salad that had hair in it. But, she told the manager and he comp'd the full size salad + dessert. Also, I've searched far & wide for a place that could replicate their BBQ chicken chopped salad and have failed. So, food is A+ & service is A+.

Since I tried almost all the dishes from them, I think I have an idea of how their food taste like...3 stars! I always get to try something new each time so I don't really remember all the names anymore but overall it's a decent place to go to when you have craving for pizza. When I first came here for the first time, it was really good and all but everything is just alright now, nothing to die for. The only thing I'm not very fond of is that it costs extra when you pick the meat of your choice for that dish. $2 extra for chicken, $4 more for shrimp. I don't see why they can't add that to the dish and have separated options like that for. - Lettuce Wraps: the name says it all...you wrap with lettuce! They always give you options for meat so we went with chicken. It came out a plate of minced chicken with lettuce wrap and sweet sauce on the side. It was flavorful and stuffs but it's not something I enjoy eating. - SANTA FE CHICKEN PIZZA: This has to be my favorite pizza from them but I don't remember exactly what's on it anymore since it has been awhile. I just remember it came with guacamole, minced tomato, olives on the side so I like it. I'm not sure if they still have this on the menu since they change their stuffs from time to time! - Original BBQ Chicken Pizza...nothing special about this I guess. You can't go wrong with it. It's just pizza with...bbq chicken topping. - The Original BBQ Chicken SALAD: I think the salad would taste better without the bbq chicken on it. Even though I know it's bbq chicken but they made the chicken a bit too sweet. It didn't taste good either when it came out cold, so no bbq chicken with salads! Other than that, the salad was yummy, very fresh! - Pastas: . JAMBALAYA: 4**** pasta. CPK's specialty is pizza, not pastas but if you want something good, try this? I only like this dish out of all 3 that I tried. . Thai Linguini: 2**. I don't like it! The noodles were kinda hard and the flavor was just not that great. If you can't handle the spice, then don't get this. Actually, it wasn't that that spicy but the spice just killed the dish. . Chicken Tequila Fettuccine: Wow, first time eating green pasta...yup, it was green! I thought this was okie, nothing special from other pasta dishes.

So maybe it was the fact that it was during the lunch rush - or maybe it was the fact that we were a huge party ... but the service wasn't what I've been used to at CPK. It was my first time at this particular CPK and though we were seated right away - and we were starving - the food seemed to take FOREVER. And I get that the food takes a little longer for a large party, but the food didn't even come out at the same time, or even close together. We had a few people who were still waiting for their meals while others were already almost finished. I would expect this for our large party, but they had two servers handling us - which I think should be just enough. Not to mention that we had to ASK for bread (which in my past experiences always just comes) and then the server said "should I bring some for everyone" - well duh! We're all starving! The food is the food - I like just about everything I've ever tried at CPK and this visit still left me without complaints.

I adore this place. I love their BBQ Chicken Pizza. It's delicious and it's done to perfection. The crust is crunchy and thin, the way I like my pizza. Also, their service is extremely good. Although sometimes, they may seem a little bit annoying, but I know that they're just doing their job. They check up on you a lot and it's a good thing, because you never need to try to attempt to catch their attention as they walk by. I love their prices and their big portions, along with their service. It was outstanding.

This place's food is amazing! I would have to say their new Baby Clam Linguini is very delicious. I'm very glad that the waitress suggested the lemon cream sauce to me because I was doubting that sauce at first. I also got the Strawberry Colada and the Carne Asada Pizza. Of course not all for me, I shared with my girlfriend. Who also likes this place very much. I would have to say that was the best pizza I have ever ate in my life so far. The Strawberry Colada looks and is very tasty as well. As for the parking, I can't really complain because its a Saturday night of Thanksgiving weekend and I'm at a mall. Although we were on a wait list, it wasn't that long of a wait, they just required that at least half our party arrived before they can seat us. My only complaint is the price and the amount of portion we were served. Even though I shared food with my girlfriend, it was not enough to fill me up especially since I ordered two entrÃ©es and a drink. Would I come back? I definitely would come back but on occasions only because it would break my bank.

This is a very good chain restaurant sit down eatery for specialty pizzas. I've tried almost all of their pizzas and most of them are good. My favorite is the goat cheese and grilled pepper pizza. I usually share a salad a pizza with a friend. I think 1 pizza is too big for one person, unless you have a big appetite! But I usually feel like I'm being a bit healthier when I order a salad also! The salads are big, so there is plenty to share. My friend always orders the BBQ chicken pizza and adds goat cheese, it's the bomb...if you like goat cheese of course:)

I absolutely love their BBQ Chicken Pizza, but every time I come here their pastas do not taste good. They're just too bland do not come with much. Also, their bread that they provide you with is very dry and tasteless. The service is pretty decent and the wait is not too long during lunch hours. Occasionally, I eat there when I'm shopping at the mall, but other than that, I would not make the extra trip just to eat there.

So this CPK has been here since I was in Jr. High school. Ever since then it's a restaurant I feel that you can't really leave and have a bad meal. The food is usually pretty consistent as well. On this outing we found there were several new items on the menu. We decided to order only "new" items this evening. Crab cakes - Saw a picture of these on the table and they looked pretty good. When they brought out the plate we realized that the crab cakes were the size of silver dollars. At first i was like "wtf?" but biting into them I was pleasantly surprised that they tasted great. They used real lup crab meat instead of the cheap crap most restaurants use. They also didn't use a crazy amount of breadcrumbs so the texture was just right. The crab cakes were served with a concoction of black beans, corn, and tomatoes, somewhat of a southwestern style and also a dipping sauce. Miso Salad - This was another new item on the menu. You have your choice of shrimp with lump crab meat, or chicken. We chose chicken. It's pretty similar to most of their salads. Served with shredded cabbage, avocado chunks, cucumbers, daikon, edamame, carrots, red cabbage, green onions, cilantro, crispy rice noodles and crispy wontons. All of this tossed in their miso dressing. The salad was good overall but a little light in flavor so we asked for the peanut dressing from the thai crunch salad. Maybe next time we'll just order the Thai salad. Cajun Pizza - We ordered this Neapolitan style which is basically a super thin pizza. The toppings are blackened chicken, sausage, and a cajun creole sauce with mozarella, onions and roasted peppers. This was a great tasting pizza and the thin crust didn't make it too filling. All of the items were pretty good and might even be ordered again in the future. There are several other items that are great such as the focaccia bread, original bbq chopped chicken salad, thai crunch salad, and some great pizzas.

I come here when I'm at the mall and I cant decide where to eat. Tried nearly all of the pizzas because who hasn't been to CPK by now. As far as it goes by a pizza chain, it's very decent. But I will mention that their pizza has shrunk somewhat. And that the portions have also decreased. I have no idea why, but it's smaller. Like very much so. The price is decent. Besides pizza they serve a variety of pasta and salads. They have some decent appetizers, but the whole asian influence appetizers are way over priced. 6 little dumplings does not cost 7-8 dollars. They also have beer here which is cool because it's in the mall.

CPK is one of my favorite restaurants! It helps that they sell their gift cards at Costco, so I get to eat there at an extra value. I love their Roasted Artichoke and Spinach pizza. That's usually my go-to dish. Their Vegetarian with Eggplant pizza is also good, especially with the honey wheat crust. I love pizza, so these two choices allow me to indulge but not feel too guilty about it.

Their pizza crust is soooo good. It has a slightly sweet taste to it. I always get the shrimp scampi pizza. I also really like their dakota pea soup with barley. I find that this location is understaffed a lot. Many times the hostess will be running around serving and cleaning up tables. Sometimes it takes a really long time to get seated, even though there are tons of empty tables. One unsatisfactory thing I have with all CPK's is the bread they serve you when you sit down. It's cold, stale and doesn't have much flavor to it. I don't understand why a restaurant that makes specialty pizzas can't just bake up some decent bread. I only eat it if I'm absolutely starving.

First off, I was going to write a scathing review of this CPK until a gentleman by the name of Danny B. noticed how annoyed I was getting and came to the rescue. My boyfriend and I arrived and waited about 10-15 minutes for a table, which I guess is reasonable for a Friday night. Once we were seated, I noticed that the area was pretty empty, so I'm not sure if they just make you wait for ten minutes just because. After we were seated, another couple was seated after us, then a group of four women. The couple and the women that were seated after us, were all served first. To say the least, I was getting pretty angry at this point. Our menus were closed as we had already decided what to get while waiting the 15 minutes. Danny B. - who was not our waiter came over and finally asked if we had been helped. I'm glad someone noticed. Finally, we ordered our food - I had guacamole and chips and a tostada pizza, my boyfriend ordered the white pizza. The guacamole was very good the white pizza never fails. In my attempt to try something different, I tried that tostada pizza and it was just okay, kind of gross actually. I wont eat it again- it was strange. The relentless trying to up sell is kind of annoying. I told the second waiter, whom I couldn't understand - no I don't want desert, just the check and the leftovers to go - again, he asked are you sure? Yes, we are sure - we have to go to the Facebook movie in ten minutes on the other side of the mall! Should you be required to give a tip, if the staff doesn't do a good job????

The food is always good here, not too much else to say. Recommend you try: Miso Salad BBQ Chicken Salad Mac N Cheese Soups Spinach Dip Negative: Can be a little slow since it is always packed, & they have messed up orders here and there but they always fix it right away.

Justin L.

They have fairly decent food, though the price is a little high. I spend around $47 ordering two pasta entees and a pizza. I could probably get a similar meal elsewhere for less, so I can't recommend it based on value. The pizza I ordered was ok. The crust is soft, and I didn't get that "hot off the grill" feel. I like my pizzas hot, and it was just a little cold. Just personal preference though. Their service was good, very courteous but we had trouble with ordering a cup of coffee. I can't give a truly fair review since I haven't tried all the items on their menu, but 3 stars is fair.

Marie Y.

CPK has one of those menus that make me a creature of habit. Even though I'd swear up and down each time that on my next visit I'd order something different, I always end up ordering the same thing - which is either the broccoli sundried tomato fusilli pasta (all sundried tomatoes with extra garlic) or the 1/2 BBQ chicken chopped salad. Tonight's dinner was exceptionally exceptional. It looked like they were short-staffed with only 3 servers covering the entire restaurant - not an easy task considering the restaurant is pretty spread out. Our server was probably covering 10 tables all at once. But you know what? She still met our needs and made sure that we were happy, always checking in on us and refilling our drinks. She was probably stressed out as hell, but she definitely displayed grace under pressure. This is why I'm awarding these five stars to CPK's super server tonight. I wish I'd gotten her name so I could write her manager a nice note about her - hopefully this review will do her justice. The food's always good at CPK, but thanks to her, our dining experience was extra enjoyable.

Mmmm... I love the food here. It's so yummy. This is probably one of my favorite restaurants, but it is a bit pricey so I don't eat here as often as I like. I like their unique pizzas like the Thai Chicken, Mango Tandoori Chicken, or the Carne Asada pizza. Try ordering their pizzas Neapolitan-style, it makes it even better with the thin crust and crispy edge. Yum. Their pastas are good too. I've had the Chicken Tequila Fettuccine and the Fettuccine with Garlic Cream Sauce. First time I had the Garlic Cream Sauce, it was really garlicky which is a plus for me, but then I had it again and it wasn't as garlicky as I remembered... boo. :(

I didn't think their pizzas were really that great. I could get better at a local pizza delivery place. The wait and service was mediocre. Overrated. Probably not coming back.

This is the magical restaurant that gave us an interesting idea for a custom drink. They have on their menu a tropical drink that starts with an Arnold Palmer and they add rum to it. I ordered it and the waiter had said that even though it said it was a tropical drink it really wasn't. I told him to bring it anyway. Henceforth started the birth of the Gooch! Ice tea, lemonade and dark rum. While sitting and sipping my gooch the Scott's started talking about variations...like white rum...the Drummond. Which we later tried at home. Other than that the food was CPK yumminess.

When it comes to fussy eaters, me, this location allows creativity to roam free, ok with a small charge, but hey you can go nuts! I love to get the margarita pizza with kalmata olives. You, too, can be a free spirit here. All together with a half order of Chinese chicken salad to share with my spouse. The egg rolls in Thai and Baja are fun and flavorful. The seating is key to a winning experience. I like the rotunda fishbowl view of the mall and the bar works, too. The side aisle is a freeway to the bathrooms, exit,or staff workroom, so avoid at all costs unless you enjoy the shopper and staff traffic. The outdoor patio area you can not drink alcohol, so avoid that seating if necessary. The endless lemonade is nice, too, and a bit tart, but hey, it isn't Minute Maid, so I am super thankful.

Went there a while ago for lunch. Ordered a pizza with shrimp plus a lettus wrap. The wait is decent and the service is good, I had a pretty nice time, though it's a bit pricy for a casual lunch. I would go again when I want something different.

Lauren L.

I like to come here for lunch with a buddy and then head out for more shopping. It is nice cuz it is by the pretzel place too! One thing is i don't like to sit inside cuz i find the table smells like wet rag. Gross i know. But if you can get over that....or better yet, sit outside....i like the food. Yes it is $ for pizza but com'n...it is the ambience you are paying for too. Besides, i love sharing the pizza so i don't have to carry around left over while shopping. The jambalaya is great but a bit too salty for my taste. THe mango tandori pizza is awesome for those who like a tropical feel. The avocado egg rolls are awesome and i love the thai crunch salad. Only half cuz it is so much. Kids also get a free cup and drink. This is the only place they forgot to ask if i wanted crayons and coloring paper for my daughter. Other than that, great place to catch a quick bite.

i'm usually cynical about American traditional restaurants because of the similar varieties that these restaurant chains have to offer. i have to admit however, a pizza like this is better than the typical pizza hut pizza. The pizzas are good, not great...just good...you can generally conclude that a finished meal at CPK feels simliar to a finished meal at in-n-out. I've always felt that American traditional restaurants had mostly the same ingredients...but uniquely shuffled around differently in each restaurant. If it's one thing i don't like about CPK, it's their tasteless pastas. Anyone can make better pasta than CPK; hence pizza kitchen, not pasta kitchen. overall, a trip to California Pizza Kitchen is a pretty pricey night out with only adequate foods. C+

Is it or me or did CPK's servings shrink in size but we're still paying for the same price?? I ordered the Thai chicken pizza and it was consistent with other CPKs that I've been to. I got a chance to try to the kung pao spaghetti and it wasn't very flavorful at all, other than just having a sweet and a lot of red peppers to make it spicy. The portion of the pasta was so small too and I don't normally eat a lot either!! We also ordered the white corn guacamole with chips and it wasn't good. I would NOT recommend it! We couldn't taste anything on there except guacamole and chunks of corn. To spice up the flavor, I squeezed the lemon juice that came with my glass of water to kick up the flavor a notch. And it was sparsely served with chips too. The manager did come around and was asking customers if they were enjoying their food. We did voice we were not too fond of the guacamole dip and he listened so that was good. I don't think I will be coming back to CPK for a while.

CPK tasted so much better when i was younger... anyhow my husbi and i went on Saturday (10/4) our server was this blonde chick so i assumed she would speak English clearly... but we couldn't understand her at all.. she had a weird accent.. it wasn't like a cute southern or British accent.. it was just hard to understand what she was saying..she wasn't exactly friendly like most waitresses.. she seemed like she was in a rush. we didn't get our water until our food came.. actually we received bread, water and our food all at once.. shouldn't the drinks come out first? then the bread? then the meal? and by the way, the bread wasn't warm it was..gross. anyhow we ordered : bbq chicken cobb salad? - just wasnt' as much flavor as i remembered.. and my husbi tried it and thought it was just gross and didnt want me to eat it. and also the buffalo chicken pizza..the pizza was.. ok the portions are getting smaller! so basically we weren't satisfied after we ate so we went to another restaurant afterward.

this place is so good.... i never knew i could finish a whole pizza ... LOL.. BBQ chicken pizza is my favorite.. but I always start with the same appetizer Tuscan Hummus, it's my favorite. I took my lil brother once there, they have great kids menu deals. The atmosphere is nice, is just sometimes could be a little longer wait.

Jessica Y.

I love their tequila lime pasta dish and pita bread with butter...hmmm....i am craving it as i am writing this review. The pizza here is pretty good...its better than pizza hut and etc...but other than that i really don't have much to say about this place. Its nothing special but its not bad....its just one of those places that are there...and you wouldn't mind eating here once in awhile type....kinda like olive garden....

I'm sure there's millions of folks who like CPK, and with good reason. they probably love the food. In my experience though, their food seems to be on the super sweet end. i went to CPK for the very first time, but i've had their food on two other occasions through takeout. So for this last visit i ordered something i know wouldn't be that sweet. Chinese Chicken salad and their Chowder soup. i've eaten chinese chicken salad probably dozens and dozens of times and am familiar with the taste regardless where i eat. This time it came super sweet. i couldn't taste the sesame at all. they filled it with that japanese sweet sauce that they put on crunchy rolls. so i move on to the chowder, though not super sweet, it was still sweet for a chowder. now i don't know what kinda chowder ya'll eat, but i know it shouldn't be sweet. i proceeded to taste my brother-in-laws jerk chicken pizza and that was sweet too! i know jerk chicken has sugar in it to balance out flavor, but never to dominate. the service was horrible too. we went in famished. but our food took soooo long that our stomachs grumbled. on top of that, the waitress forgot our soup (place had a few folks in, not close to crowded). major major disappointment. hole in the wall spots still rule!

Ann Z.

I still don't understand why people like this chain..I have tried so many different locations not by choice since every time I go into this place its because someone has picked it and it's always the same food and service sucks, it does not matter if it's the one in Seal Beach, Long Beach and now this one. I can get better tasting pizza at Costco.

CPK typically has decent food, but this time, it was average. We arrived at the start of lunch hour, and I thought they had a bread basket to get things started, but we didn't get any. It must have been my imagination, but when I looked across at a family of six dining at another table, they had bread!! Okay, no matter, we're having Chinese Chicken Salad ($11.79). The salad looked really delicious, and it tasted okay, but I've had better. The dressing overpowered the salad, and there wasn't that much lettuce/cabbage in the salad to speak of. There were wonton skins, sesame seeds, carrots, a few pieces of chicken, nothing to write home about. We ordered the following: BBQ Chicken Pizza ($12.99), The Works Pizza (Pepperoni, Sausage, etc.) ($12.49), Asparagus & Spinach Spaghettini with chicken ($15.24), Chicken Tequila Fettucine ($12.99), coffee ($1.99), "fresh" Lemonade ($2.59), and Maui Punch ($3.50). The food was pretty expensive for lunch, but for the most part, if the food is excellent, then the meal and experience pays itself off. In this case, though, it did not. The BBQ Chicken Pizza was warm, not hot, and I asked my friend if his pizza (The Works) was hot, and he said it was warm. (I've ordered form Domino's Pizza, and their pizza was much hotter than CPK's.) My sister enjoyed her spaghettini and said it was warm, but that it was perfect for her. She said it was an entree she would order again. The lemonade was like Minute Maid, nothing spectacular, but for $2.59, I wanted it to move mountains! (Okay, okay, that was a tall order!) My friend had the Maui Punch, and there was more crushed ice than punch! The sever was attentive and checked on us from time to time, but overall, the dining experience was really average. I really don't think I'll be eating at CPK's for a while. With tax and tip, the total came out to $89. I think I could have gotten better food for half the price elsewhere, but oh well, we all live and learn.

I don't understand the hype. It takes forever to get seated, it is really loud, and they don't even give you bread before your meal anymore unless you ask. How cheap! I don't care for the taste of their pizza. The sauce is too tangy for me.

Tasha H.

this CPK is always busy. always. and i cant blame em, they do have some good food. it's weird that i'd rather not order pizza here. "HAHA, who doesnt order pizza at a pizza place?!" right? well, they have lots of other awesome items on the menu. id only go here if i was starving, its date night, and me and the bf need somewhere thats not so damn private. after saying "no" a million times to getting pizza, the bf will order one anyway and i succumb to trying it out because it looks so damn good. but i'll order all the good stuff: - Avocado Club Egg Rolls TGIFridays and BJ's got nothing on these! they are bursting with avocado, and they look all expensive on a plate =) -Garlic Cheese Focaacia with Checca which is essencially garlic bread with buchetta. why is this sizziling good-ness so... good? i dont know, i just love bread goodies. - Fettuchine with Garlic Creme Sauce mmmm sooo good! nicely seasoned and not too much garlic. OR -Chicken Piccata whatever the sauce is made with it must include some type of highly addictive substance... i crave it at 3am sometimes. augh! -Caramel Fudge Pecan Cheesecake there are, like, 15 of my favorite things packed into this petite slice of deliciousness. id kill to have my own personal cake. ...and so much more! i didnt mention what kind of pizza simply because you KNOW they got good ass pizza. a little on the small side for size, but bursting with robust sweet flavors. if its busy, count on waiting over 30 mins. or just take a seat at the bar... like we did.

A restaurant that offers pizza, sandwiches, salads, and soups. I like their split pea soup. I've been here once and I got their sandwich and soup combo, though I don't remember which sandwich. The sandwich was decent, nothing impressive. Good service and atmosphere.

CPK is one of the main date restaurants that my boyfriend and I go to. Kind of one of those "our" things that we have. This place has delicious food and excellent service. One of the few downsides to this place is that the wait can get a little long during the main dining areas. When I visit, I usually get the spinach artichoke dip along with a pizza of my boyfriend's choosing and maybe the portobello mushroom ravioli depending on if I was in a pasta-y mood that day. I have to say their spinach artichoke dip is the best I've had. I've tried spinach artichoke dip at various other restaurants; cheesecake factory, chilis, bj brewhouse & more, but none of them seem to match up to the one at cpk. Comparing the portobello mushroom ravioli from cpk with the one from Olive Garden, I would say it's definitely more worth it to get it from CPK. They give you more ravioli for a dollar or two less (unless you get sauteed mushrooms or something). Overall this restaurant is a place that I would definitely come to a lot.

Since the West Covina CPK closed this is the closest CPK I have now. It's worth the drive. This location is in the mall and has a cool feel with a non complete closed wall atmosphere because there is a side of full length windows which makes the restaurant seem larger.

Lina C.

Located next to the 2nd floor of Macy's at the Santa Anita Mall, the food at this CPK actually tastes delicious. Highly recommend the pizza here. The crust is perfectly crunchy and chewy at the same time. The BBQ Chicken Pizza in Hawaiian style is my favorite. I also love the Kung Pao chicken spaghetti. It's very flavorful with garlic and scallions. Overall, a good dining establishment with friendly service.

2014 YELP 365 CHALLENGE - 238/365 Been here several times throughout my years living in Arcadia and it's a good location. Smaller sized restaurant but consistently great customer service, and always a small wait time. They were PACKED Sunday around 1:30p, but we were seated within 5min. They were giving free small appetizers if you signed up for their free rewards program (collect points, get money off when you reach certain amount of points) which was quick and easy, got our free guacamole and chips which was delicious. Guacamole was very fresh and flavorful. Our waitress was VERY busy but still very attentive. She came by 2 or 3 times to ask how the food was, refilled our drinks and brought out bread a couple times too. She may have been overwhelmed by all of the tables, confusing us with other tables bringing boxes or appetizers to the wrong table, but she was very sweet and sincere about it so it wasn't a big deal. Plus, she was working her butt off on a busy day. Only negative here is their prices. I've seen them steadily increase over the past couple years, and I think they're pretty ridiculous now. I remember when their individual pizza's were 11-12 bucks. Now almost all of the pizzas are close to $15, and not one of the salads were below $13. I'm sure they are competing with Cheesecake Factory prices which have steadily increased as well.

Most of my dining experiences with CPK have sadly been in airports - did have a favorite one in Palm Beach Gardens Florida. This one is on the second floor of the Westfield Mall in Arcasia. Ambience was great...Very nice. I sat at the bar and was served by Jassmine who was a real pleasure. I had the Shrimp Scampi Zucchini. A blend of fettucine noodles and slices of zucchini - was excellent! Took an original BBQ Chicken pizza to go and had it with my son later. Food was great and staff was very friendly!

The food was delicious and came so quick which was so nice for a change thank you thank you thank you for your hospitality.

The back seating area towards the restrooms smells horrible!! It smells like mildew. I couldn't sit there. I don't know how the people sitting there could. We moved to a table near the entrance. It was smaller but smelled much better. I had the pepperoni pizza with olives. It was very good. They did not skimp on the toppings and cooked just right. My daughter had a kids cheese pizza. She was not impressed. It was a lot more dough than sauce and cheese. She also ordered the kids brownie. It was rich. She loved it! The waiter was very good. Extremely personable and efficient. My glass of tea was never empty. He would bring a refill before the the first was gone. The food and service were good! The smell will have me thinking twice before I go back...

I have to say that I come here often and never EVER has anyone working here been anything less than friendly and nice and helpful!

Thank you Andrea and glo and of course my little buddy Roz!!!

Seeing all these reviews on CPK, I feel pretty sad :( But but but....I love their pizza and restaurant. I have to say that I am seriously not a big fan of corporate restaurants. Most of the time foods at corporate places are all frozen and the air smells of misery and minimum wage. But you know what? CPK employees ACTUALLY SMILE! That's so rare because at most times, employees use their portray how they feel during working. It's as if CPK employees are programmed with binary codes to produce happy feelings. Or what if they actually are happy there? CPK is the same at most places, but I tend to love this location in Arcadia. It is slightly overpriced and they have gone through quite a few changes since the other times I have been here. Some examples are: - Bread is different than before. It has more of a Mediterranean taste with olive oil and spices than with butter. - There are bottles of sparkling water on the side. - Pizza and food are always changing here. Two of my favorite pizzas, Shrimp Scampi and Mango Tendori, are now gone forever. I also forgot to mention the Singaporean Spring rolls. - Atmosphere has somehow changed and is slightly less Chaotic than it was before. Regardless of the changes, the food is always surprisingly consistent and great. I especially love their mushroom pizzas. The Kung Pao Spaghetti is an excellent addition as well. There are other small bites and what not but I'll leave that for you to decide :) Tips: -Parking is easy. -It gets super busy during weekends.

I used to love this place. Now it's way over priced. It should not cost $50 for 2 adults and a child to eat here! (2 pizzas, a HALF salad, and a kid's meal. No beverages.) I also waited at curbside for over 20 minutes. Unacceptable. My food was ready when I arrived too...it just took that long to bring it to me and charge my card. It wasn't busy either. It was 5pm! Food was cold by the time I got home. Disappointed. Finally, the regular crust on my pizza was so thin, it would have been impossible to have a thin crust.

The Food is light and okay. Nikki was our server and I'm so impressed. My Mom can be picky and didn't like a few things and had them sent back. We were not charged. I'd go again.

CPK has been my favorite place to eat for over a decade! I love the food and how they change up the menu on a regular basis. I love the wine glasses on the table! IT makes me want to order WINE! I love that they have 3oz. pours or 6oz. pours of wine, so you can enjoy a sip of wine with each course that you are eating. I love the service! I am a difficult guest when I dine at CPK and I am very happy that they always accommodate me. I basically create my own salad so to speak. I am a very picky eater. Never have I ever had any issues on my salad ever! I've dined here over a gazillion times! Time in and time out I love coming to this place! I love the service I receive, especially from the wait staff and management. Nicole is an exceptionally amazing server and appreciate her service. Thanks CPK! oh yah, and sign up for their rewards card, its defiantly beneficial!

Flagging down the waitress was a mission and she never came back to our table after putting our food down. The pizza was mediocre and there were only a few pieces of chicken, the garlic fettuccine pasta was alright. I ordered $1 mushrooms as an add on and only found a few in my plate and was a little disappointed (I love me my mushrooms).

Ehh food isn't that great, only thing that made me give it an extra star was the fact that the ambience was nice. Other than that you really shouldn't bother with coming here.

I don't know what came over me to order a salad at cpk. Recent overload of carbs or something made me wanna eat veggies at a pizza place. What a mistake! I got the roasted veggie salad. It was OK. I really missed meat after that. I could've added chicken to the salad, but the salad was already $13 and to add meat was another 3-4 dollars. No way I would spend that much on a salad! Anyways, learn from your mistakes. Definitely getting pizza next time. Boyfriend ordered The Works pizza. Don't get it. It was good, but these toppings are exactly the same as the combination pizza at costco, but more expensive and smaller. Might as well get a different specialty pizza!

I don't come to California Pizza Kitchen as much as I used to because I feel like the quality and quantity have both declined. The service used to be impeccable, but the waiters and waitresses that I have come to recognize don't seem to be working here any longer. There are some days where you'll be lucky and have a more attentive waitress, but lately it seems like they don't know how to efficiently do their jobs and communicate with the other staff members. A few weeks ago, we had asked for water and it never came. We flagged down another waitress who flagged down our main waitress. The water still didn't come so we asked a waiter. It took a really long time before we ended up getting those water cups. And we had also asked for the complimentary bread and oil, which didn't come out. Our waitress was nowhere to be found and when she finally walked out to do her rounds, our food had already arrived. And one more incident that made my boyfriend upset was that the Sicilian pizza we had ordered was cold when they served it to us. When we asked our waitress if she could reheat it or have it remade - the dish it came on and the pizza itself was cold like it had been sitting outside for awhile before it was delivered to us - she looked like she didn't want to do that. We had to convince her that we had gotten cold pizza before she took it back inside. She didn't come back to our table until we flagged down a random waitress for the check. My favorite two dishes from CPK are the Fettucine Alfredo and the Barbecue Chicken Pizza. The alfredo sauce is still really nice, but there are times the pasta is more chewy and hard than soft. As for the pizzas, I feel like they are shrinking more and more in size. They keep coming up with new crusts, but I feel like these "new ideas" only cause the pizzas to get smaller (crusts better, pizza smaller?). This more negative review isn't based on only one visit, but an accumulation of 3 separate visits, where I felt like the service became more and more poor. Our waiters and waitresses who used to serve us with a smile are no longer here, and the new ones who are don't seem to offer the same service that the old ones did.

Went in on a Tuesday night. We were seated right away, but had to wait a while to get our drinks. I asked for butter for our bread, instead of creamy butter we received this frozen, freezer burn tasting stuff. It did't even look like butter. When I asked if they had some fresh butter, I was told that they did not. Our Waldorf salad was sad.... the apples were brown and the greens were wilted. I never received a refill on my drink. The Chicken Piccata was thrown on the plate and I was afraid to eat it.... I was afraid they used the same butter. Our dinner was brought out by what looked like a kitchen staff member. She looked upset and rushed.

One of my favorite places to go! I love their arugula salad and chicken tequila fettucini! I highly recommend their mojito! Service is always highly attentive. At this place, you don't even have to ask for more ice tea or more bread ( it's actually very tasty!) cuz they refill it very promptly. Their pizza ( which is not very large size,) by the way is all the same size, unlike other places) depending on what you get is quite fresh with sumptuous ingredients to fill your taste buds! I accidentally emptied out the entire can of chili pepper onto the "works pizza" !!! I felt terrible! But it's not I did it on purpose! But our server was so kool! She took the pizza back and had made us another fresh one, which we had to take it to go! Too stuffed!

I went there last night with three girl friends, two had never been and two hadn't been in quite awhile. Server was very nice and suggested we order a pizza and a couple of salads to share...food was very good but when we went to pay with a gift card they said their system was down and could not accept it... Wth that's why we came in to use the gift card... Asked for the manager and sorry but he was not friendly he said he could give us 20% off but the system was not working to determine the amount on the card... Really there's a number on the back of the card .... Have you ever heard of a phone? After letting them know kinda loudly that it was unacceptable they took the gift card... Funny their system wasn't down to take our debit card....won't be going back!!!

I used to work in an industry where for part of the year it was considered "busy season" and we'd have to order in a lot for lunch or dinner. Even on the weekends. Generally in Downtown LA, the only thing open and moderately priced was CPK. I've since moved on to greener pastures, and really have not touched CPK in 3-4 years because I had it so much before. Anyway, I recently got a gift card so decided to give it a try again. Might as well, right? I was very impressed. All the food was freshly made and hot coming out. We ordered a thin crusted pizza, the two soups in a bowl, mac and cheese balls and chinese chicken salad. The Chinese chicken salad was not that great, mainly because the dressing is hoisin sauce based, but other than that all the good was delicious. The service at this location was also very on point - very attentive; they asked how our meal was and promptly refilled our drinks. I also did not ever feel rushed or pressured to buy their movie ticket offer. All in all, a good experience. CPK in general will never be a first option for me, but I'm glad to say I'm not completely turned off by it anymore and this is a very good location.

One of my rare visit to a CPK, and went for their bar. The wine was good, and I got it with cranberry juice for $10! This place can improve better! The menu can have more variations. My appetite has changed lately, or I would have crave for their pizzas .. too much dough. I don't like the bread comes with the olive oil, but what can you ask ...! Good customer service and I don't need to wait at all :)

How have I not reviewed this place already? I used to come here a lot when I was younger, since my cousins from Korea would like to come here. I came here for the first time in a couple of years, however, this past August with a couple of friends after we had watched a movie at AMC. The CPK is large with both indoor and "patio" seating (still indoor however) and we were able to be seated immediately. Service was pretty good since we came here for an early dinner and the place was not yet completely busy. CPK used to have this Chicken Tikka Masala pizza that I absolutely loved, but then they took it off the menu. That upset me, which is why I avoided coming here for a couple of years--nothing here is as good as that pizza! :P Anyway, we decided to split two pizzas between the three of us. We wanted to try some new styles, so we ordered the following: 1) CALIFORNIA CLUB: Nueske's applewood smoked bacon, roasted chicken and Mozzarella, hearth-baked then topped with avocado, arugula, torn basil and Romaine tossed in lemon-pepper mayonnaise. -- This seriously looked like a salad on top of a pizza. So much arugula and Romaine! The greens were a bit overwhelming; I'm not a fan of salads so I didn't care for this pizza very much. I did appreciate that each pizza slice got its own avocado slice, but there wasn't enough bacon for my liking. My friends seemed to like this pizza though. 2) SPICY CHIPOTLE CHICKEN: Chipotle adobo sauce, shaved poblanos, Monterey Jack with housemade roasted corn & black bean salsa, cilantro and lime crema. -- While this was a bit spicier than I expected, I ended up liking this pizza more than the California Club. It was more flavourful and I do love corn on pizzas. CPK has always been a decent choice for lunch/dinner. This location is convenient since it is at the mall, so if you are already there shopping why not stop by for a meal? I still have yet to find a pizza I really love here (that is still on the menu), but I definitely don't mind coming here every now and then with friends.

Love their pizzas! It's unique pizzas that you can't get anywhere else. This location can get pretty pack considering it's in the mall. The service can be little slow sometimes and that is only negative thing I have. Staffs are friendly and they even gived me free small dish for signing up as member :) We ordered Thai Chicken pizza with thin crust (laying off the carbs lol). It was delish love the peanut sause combo with chicken and fresh veggies on top. Even though it's thin crust, it was enough for two of us; we weren't super stuffed but satisfied which was perfect :)

CPK would be a place I crave for at times when I really want their Tiramisu, Original BBQ Chopped Salad or their Bbq pizza. I thought their food is great, there's never one time I was dissatisfied with the dishes I ordered. I do have to agree at times that their services may be a bit slow and it's difficult to find your server at times, but other than that, when you do get your server's attention, they really accomodate and help you out. I really think CPK have the best Tiramisu. Something about it that just kept me coming. You can really taste the rum in the Tiramisu as well. So it's wonderful. My girlfriend and I would celebrate our birthdays here together just for the Tiramisu. I do though, dislike the California pizza where there's only avocado, lettuce and mayo all over the pizza. That was just a bit different. Not my kind of pizza. If you LOVE LOVE Avocado and don't want any meat on your pizza, I guess the California pizza is the way to go. Their Kung-Pao Spaghetti is also pretty good. Who would of guessed Kung-Pao chicken with spaghetti would be such a great combo. If you feel like eating Chinese mixed with some Italian style noodles, just go with Kung-Pao Spaghetti, can't really go wrong with the name "Kung pao " right? The Jambalaya at CPK is also pretty decent. I still prefer getting Jambalaya at Cheesecake Factory though. It does get busy during the weekends, so there might be a wait.

youtu.be/bdO0a0uKc-s skip to 3:00 for CPK Love this place! It's conveniently located inside Westfield Santa Anita Mall. We went on a Sunday after church and got a great parking spot. I've been coming to this CPK for years, and they never disappoint. Their food is always delicious ~ I always order the kung pao spaghetti with chicken & hubby likes to order roasted garlic chicken pizza. I think they took the roasted garlic chicken pizza off their menu a couple years back, but you can still order it, awesome! =) now that we have a little one dining with us, I really appreciate their booster seats & crayons for kids. Restaurant is clean & staff is friendly. Actually, the waitress forgot to put in our spinach artichoke dip, and asked us if we still wanted it. We said Yes, and it came out within a few minutes. We were pleasantly surprised when she gave us the bill. She said she took the spinach artichoke dip off due to her mistake. Sweet!! We used to buy CPK Giftcards from Costco. You pay $80 for 2 - $50 giftcards. that's like getting 20% off automatically! Not sure if they still have this around though, I haven't looked for it in a while.

Good pizza. But service is slow. It takes forever for the food to arrive. You have to make sure you have a lot of time here. If you are in a rush, forget it.

This is our go to CPK as it is so close and always so nice to us (My wife knows the Mgr.). Although located in the Santa Anita Mall, it does not feel busy, and you can people watch if you don't have much conversation. The artichoke dip is always so good, but I think as we get older, we'll need to find a healthier appetizer. If you enjoy discounts, there are a few ways to save money. Join the CPK club and enjoy some free food and discounts, buy gift cards at COSTCO, and be sure to ask for the house bread, as they do not automatically serve it up unless asked. The wait staff are all great and they are on top of their game. I really enjoy their food, but variety is the spice of life!

Came by here on New Year's day for lunch with my mother and my husband since we were hungry while scoring some excellent new year sales deals. We walked up to the hostess desk/ podium a little before 12 pm and were seated immediately inside the restaurant (there is tables outside of the restaurant you can sit at). This is what we ordered: Chicken Lettuce Wraps ($9.49 prior to tax)- this appetizer came out pretty quickly actually, which was nice because we were quite hungry and the complementary bread just wasn't enough. The chicken mixture was really good and wasn't too greasy. The lettuce we got were only 5 pieces and wasn't sure if we had to pay extra for more so we didn't bother to ask. But it would have been nice to have a few more lettuce pieces. Caramelized Peach Salad (full size $11.99 prior to tax)- I added salmon to this salad ($4.59, prior to tax, extra for that) to give this salad a bit more substance and protein. This salad was really good because of the flavors all mixed in with every bite. The caramelized peaches added a bit of sweetness and the feta cheese added a bit of saltiness. But I think there was a bit too much feta cheese though (I'm not really a big fan of feta cheese, or really any cheese added to my salad in general... I really like melted cheese in a sandwich more). The dressing was nice and light. I loved the dried cranberries and pecans added to this salad as well. It was also great that this salad was made with the dark green leafys instead of that cheap iceberg lettuce. I would have preferred the red onions to have been caramelized instead of eating them raw. California Club Pizza ($13.29 prior to tax)- When I saw this pizza brought to this table, I thought it was just a salad placed on top of pizza crust and didn't think this was going to be a good pizza (my husband picked this dish). But I was surprised that I actually liked it. There is a little bit of bacon on the very bottom of the crust which gives it a saltiness and added crunchy texture. The tomatoes and dressing with the lettuce on top of the pizza crust was really tasty. I also liked the creaminess of the avocado pieces as well. As soon as our server greeted us, she immediately brought over a plate of complementary bread slices with an olive oil dip. It was good, but sadly only came with 4 pieces. Our server was very friendly and pretty good at refilling our drinks most of the time during our dining experience. She was helpful in answering our questions about the menu as well. Overall, the food was pretty good. I was a little apprehensive to eat here though because of the yelp reviews. The last time I came here was over 10+ years ago (when I was still in high school...yea, I'm totally old) and I thought the food was good. So I was happy to see that this place still is just as good as it was back then and wouldn't mind coming back here again for lunch with the family. By the way, CPK is located on the 2nd floor, close to Macy's, in case you are looking for this place.

I always hear such great places about CPK, so I gave it a shot today. My family had $100 gift card so why not. We got two margherita pizzas, "the works" pizza and avocado egg rolls. I didn't try the works pizza but my dad said it wasn't great. The margherita pizza was not good either. It honestly didn't taste like anything. There was patches of cheese so not every bite had cheese, & just overall it didn't have much flavor. The best thing was the avocado egg rolls but even then, those weren't that great. They tasted like chicken bacon ranch sandwiches w avocado from subway. For 3 pizzas & egg rolls, the total came out to around $70. For the price, it was DEFINITELY not worth it. Really disappointed with the food and I won't be back.

Well gave this place another shot and a couple times service was a lot better. But I went recently, like the end of July and horrible horrible experience yet again! The waitress that we had in the beginning she was very attentive, then a man came and requested for her to be his waitress and she just totally forgot about us. I had to ask another waitress to get our refills and everything else. Then our original waitress notices that we were close to being done and gives us our check, I told her that it's my birthday month and so I would like my free dessert and she was like wait I have to check your rewards. I had also asked for her to pack our leftovers. She comes back and says yes that I do have a free dessert. So 2 other waitresses brings it out and asks everyone if the desert belonged to then and never gave it to me. They went back inside to ask my original waitress and then one of the lady brings it out and asks if I ordered it and I said yes. She then tells me o she was gonna give it away (in a mean way) since she didn't know who it was for. So when we finished and I paid, the waitress never brought me back my leftovers (packed) so I had to ask her, mind you, most of the time she was tending to that man that requested for her and he was just sitting behind me. They were big time flirting too and being touchy. How professional is that! Anyhow, she was clueless about what I was talking about then she was like omg, I forgot! DUH! I'm not sure if I will be returning, unless they have more professional waiters and waitresses.

CPK is my little girls favorite place, so we come here at least 3 times a month and spend over 75.00 each time. with that be said- I am done with this place. The food quaility has gone down hill! i always order the Kung Pao Spaghetti and the past three times, it was horrbile! it was dry, tastless, luke warm or they forget something that i ask for (like my shrimp!). the service is always good, but we are done coming to this location.

Most people call this place CPK. Located on the 2nd floor of Santa Anita Mall, this place has been around forever. It's not hard to understand why - fast, casual, and good food. Service is always pleasant for me with waiters/waitresses that hustle and bustle. BBQ chicken pizza, chinese chicken salad, and mango ice tea are my go to items here. I wish they showed calorie count though so I can make smarter decisions. I've got weddings coming up and the last thing I need are tighter pants.

Allison N.

It's a pizza chain. It's A'ight. It used to be SOOOOOO good when I was little -- but maybe because I used to be very picky about the food I ate. I will say they have some pretty bomb salads now -- Arugula and Quinoa and a sundried tomato asparagus one. Honestly now I just come for the BBQ Chicken pizza, which is still the most juicy and oily of anywhere I've tried. Cut me a slice of that please CPK, but I could go without most of the rest of your menu... Except for your desserts. HOLY cow! I will also add that the service at this CPK is always exceptionally on point. They're always attentive!!! Though weirdly enough, when it's slower, it's harder to get better service.

We went to this CPK today. We ordered 2 pizzas (tostada thin crust pizza & works original pizza) and one dessert for a total of $50. Here are some things we experienced: It took almost 45 minutes from the time our order was taken until we received the pizzas. Bread started did not come until 30 mins from the time our order was taken. The first thing we noticed was that the wall at our seat does not seem to be cleaned for a long time. It was quite dusty (see picture). Once the bread started came, it was mediocre at best: does not look like it was fresh from the oven and the olive oil dressing was bland..... meh.... it's free! who am I to complain. =D Then the Pizzas came. The tostada thin crust pizza was burnt (mostly at the bottom and a little bit on the side) to the point that it was bitter. It was probably baked too close to the fire. The black bean paste was too little for our taste. It was quite tasty, though. The work pizza was baked perfectly. However, the taste was mediocre for a $15 pizza. It taste the same like a $8 pizza I can get from my school cafeteria. The dessert: We decided to try their new dessert: Salted Caramel Pudding. It was nice. The sweet taste balance the saltiness of the salt. I did not like the "black cocoa cookie crumbs" at the bottom. Caramel was too weak. The mousse taste like a store-bought product. The only reason we did not give it 2-stars rating is because our waitress was very attentive and friendly. Note: at the end, my wife saw that one of the 'order ticket' fell onto one of the pizza on the kitchen counter. Then, one of the server just picked it up and continue to serve that pizza. I know that this may not be a big deal for some people. However, if you dare to showcase your kitchen to the customer, you'd better make sure that this kind of thing does not happen.

I haven't gone here for some time. Last night was a reminder of why. They had us wait like 10 minutes when there was clearly seating available. They didn't offer if we wanted to sit a the counter. When they sat us for a party of two in a table for six Really? On the way to the very back of right back I saw two other tables available. The server told us right off the bat that he was super busy but he'll be back to get our order. We didn't see him for at least another 10 minutes. We did get water and bread while we waited but we were starving. When he took the order from her table behind us he drops by to say he will be back I told him we were ready to order. He took our appetize, pizza and pasta order. I think he put it all in at the same time because our pasta was Luke warm by the time they delivered it. The table to north of us confirmed that that we got it cold. Their pasta was steaming and ours was not. For the 40.00 spend plus the tip was not worth it. I won't be back. He only refilled my water once and never came back to us. Service was below e standard. The manager came to check on our table but it was before we really dug into our food. Looking back I should have said something. So I guess I will write about the experience now. The garlic cream was not delicious like I remember it. I asked one of the server who packaged our meal to go if they changed the recipe she said it had been years they made a change. She said that now the sauce is prepackaged now, well it use to be my favorite place it is now on the bottom of my list. It is expensive and not worth the money. I rather go to Cheesecake Factory. There was no wait here and like an hour wait at cheesecake I see why. If you see my reviews they went from 4 to 3 and now 1 star. All in the past 4 years. This place has gone to delicious to not a place I want to go to any more.

We were waited on by Margie and she exceeded our expectations! She went above and beyond, and even gave us an extra special oil/butter/Parmesan spread for our bread. She had refills For us, without us asking, boxed our food, was smiley, kind and genuine. Our food arrived really quickly. Will definitely return and sit in her section!!

California Pizza Kitchen Overall 4 Stars Gold medal - Pizza Silver medal - Flavored ice teas Bronze medal - Kids menu CPK use to make a rosemary potato pizza. Being the potato lover that I am, I am still hoping and wishing that it comes back to CPK one day. Every time I go to CPK, I can't help but ask if they have the rosemary potato pizza. The old timer waiters still knows what I am asking. The Sicilian is my second favorite. The flavored ice teas are good at CPK. The best flavor is mango. The free refills make the tea a very good deal. We took my 5 nieces and nephews to CPK last weekend. CPK has a great kids menu. For about $5.00, kids can order their own food and the meal comes with a drink. The menu also doubles up to a coloring and activities sheet. The kids love it. HAPPY PIZZAING!!

Pizza

Pizza is a famous Italian dish savored around the world. The entire credit for the popularity of Pizza in the United States goes to the chain of pizzerias all over the country. While the base and the texture of Pizza remains same across the globe, it's the toppings that differs from country to country. In the United States, you will find the top pizzerias serving pizzas with the toppings of mainly beef, bacon, chicken, ham, and sausage for the non-vegetarians. Other than these famous meat options, Pizzas with veg toppings such as mushrooms, pepperonis, garlic, tomatoes, spinach, etc. are also famous in most restaurants in the United States.

Irrespective of your locality, you will find a variety of different restaurants in your cities offering pizzas of all different types. Pizza is hot favorite among people of all ages in the United States. A large size pizza is enough to feed a family of 3 or 4 at large. Pizza is also the most preferred food whenever a group of friends is hanging out together. Pizza gained popularity in the United States after the American soldiers stationed in Italy returned from World War II.

Over the years, different pizzerias in the United States have developed their own respective regional variations. Pizza gained popularity as the iconic dish in the United States in the second half of the 20^th century. Whether you prefer thin or thick crust pizza, you can find a pizza of your preference at the best pizza restaurants in your city.
