Went as a group of 8 and waited 30 minutes to be seated. The atmosphere was really nice but nothing that stands out. We waited another 30 minutes for our food to arrive and the portioning for the cost is unequal. It’s on the pricier side if you are looking for a decent meal in the areas. The burger itself is serviceable but the real issue was the gluten free pepperoni pizza which was a disappointment given its taste and size. Overall definitely better places out there if you are on a budget or well want a quicker service time.

Been coming here for years. The food has always been good. Very rarely did i have an issue. Pizza is good and their buffalo cauliflower is my favorite. It's a good place for couples as well as families.

The service is so good! The food is ok.

Grilled chicken from ceasar salad is good. The lettuce used in the salad is kinda not fresh anymore you see the color from the ends of it. Liked the zucchini pasta. Not too salty. We ordered club pizza. Tastes like a homemade avocado bacon sandwich.

Food was delicious and fresh. With drinks, some of the people in my group were served alcoholic beverages. Two of the three drinks were on the weaker side, but the third was fine. The service was great, we were seated in Jenny's section and she was very hospitable. As for the atmosphere, there was a consistent, loud high pitched sound that was in the background during out evening visit, it would be a deal breaker for visiting again.

Food was not bad. Service was good, but at the beginning, our waiter somehow thought someone else was helping us, so we waited a while to place our order. They came over to apologize and were attentive after that. Also to note, some of the prices on the menu are not up-to-date. For example, the kid's sundae was supposed to be $1.79 per the menu, but they actually charged us $2.99. (It was not worth $2.99.)

It has been almost a long time since we went here. We used to take the girls after the movies. Not sure why we stopped (they aged out maybe?) What was old is new again and we are going to be taking Niko more places. As the name suggests this is a pizza place but guess what it has a lot of other items. It has a lovely wine and drink section, almost considered the sangria(too early). The place had just opened and it had a surprisingly generous portion of patrons. This manifested in some delays for our visit. The server was excellent, but overwhelmed. Seemed like bad timing. We gave our drink & food order. Drinks came pretty fast, but they missed by soup order. The food was tasty. The delays continued, no check-ins for drinks or refills. I cancelled the soup to ensure we don't get charged. Bathrooms were clean, they need electric blowers... The atmosphere for this particular CPK was geared towards kids. Lots of kids, some jumping on the furniture (luckily one of the waiters corrected the child vs. the parent - gasp…) the menu selection does warrant a repeat visit. I will also give the venue another chance to improve their score.

This was our first time visiting this pizzeria. On the positive side, the pizza was delicious, and my husband really enjoyed his tomato soup. However, there were quite a few downsides. The chicken in the Caesar salad was cold, as if it had just come out of the fridge. The sofa we sat on had visible stains from table-cleaning solution, and we had to wipe it ourselves. Under the table, we found crayons and a menu lying on the floor. There was dust on the windowsills, making us wonder if we just got unlucky with our table or if cleanliness isn’t a priority here. The restroom was out of toilet paper, and we were seated directly under an air conditioner, making half of our meal uncomfortably cold—though it seemed to have been turned off later. Overall, our experience was mixed. Will we be coming back? Probably not.

Awesome lunch special for $10-15 and can keep you full. The biggest issue this location has is staffing. They are overwhelmed and need more people to attend to patrons. The food is quintessential C…

The service here is seriously lacking. The hostess that sat me had me waiting about 15 mins at the host stand before she returned to greet me. She informed me that a table for 3 would be a 5 min wait. There were plenty of tables open as the restaurant was not busy. One booth was dirty when I arrived. I understand staffing accordingly to business trends & monitoring your labor but I didn’t see a single busser. She sat a few parties instantly that arrived after me. She then begins to bus the table informing me that she’ll bus it for us to sit. That hostess moved as if she was traveling in slow motion. No sense of urgency. She took one plate at a time. 5 mins turned into 20 mins. During my wait, I read their board with their promotions. One states kids eat free Monday through Thursday from 6pm-7pm. Observing how empty the restaurant was & how the hostess took her sweet time walking about, it made me feel like she was trying to delay seating me to avoid honoring the promotion. This may not be the case but it certainly felt that way because I got sat at 7:04 & my nephews meal was on our bill. The server was cool. She was busy but she was ok. The food was good, no complaints there but the hostess sets the tone for the visit & I honestly would’ve stood at Chili’s despite having an hour wait had I known that my experience with CPK would’ve been lackluster from start to finish. I don’t see myself returning due to the lack of service. Management didn’t seem to manage to floor efficiently in my opinion. I, myself, manage a high volume restaurant in Times Square so I’m hoping management makes some improvement on the quality of the service.

I keep giving you a chance but the food is terrible and the service as well. I waited approximately 40min for a salad and I would have kept waiting had I not asked another server where is my salad. Needless to say it was cold (the steak and home fries), soggy and just terrible. Mac and cheese also real thin on the cheese. I mean how can you have such poor cheap meal such as Mac and cheese. Eww. I’m done with CA pizza. No wonder it was empty vs Chillys 45min wait.

I ordered the avocado egg rolls from California Pizza Kitchen, and I’m genuinely confused. How are you supposed to eat egg rolls with sauce cups that are barely half full? One dip and it’s gone. That doesn’t make any sense. If the sauce is part of the dish, it should actually be enough to eat the dish. For the price, this feels careless and disappointing. Definitely not the experience I expect.

The server didn't really care about our table and didn’t check up on us. We had keep raising our hands if we needed anything. I asked for some hot sauce, but she brought it to us almost at the end of the meal. She also made a mistake on the bill and charged us for an extra drink even though she said she would remove it from the bill when we changed our mind. The pizza was overcooked, tough and hard, and was really hard to chew. The kids didn’t even want to finish eating the pizza. The last part I was really upset about was the counter was right behind our table. Instead of printing it up and walking around the counter and handing it to us my husband had to turn around and get it! It was so unpleasant. She wasn't professional and quite frankly disrespectful. Bad service- I don't want to go there ever again. It's less than one star👎👎

I rarely leave negative reviews because I work in the hospitality and service industry myself, and I fully understand the impact a bad review can have on a business. However, after last night’s experience at California Pizza Kitchen – Atlas Mall, staying silent would be irresponsible. I visited on February 27, 2026, at approximately 9:00 PM with my family, and the experience was unacceptable from start to finish. We waited 30 minutes just to have our order taken, followed by another 45 minutes for the food to arrive. Unfortunately, the problems only escalated once the food finally came out. My son’s burger was specifically ordered without vegetables, yet it arrived 44 minutes later, cold and completely covered in lettuce. What is most concerning is that neither the server nor the kitchen manager noticed an error that was visually obvious. This reflects a serious lack of quality control and attention to detail. My salad, advertised with steak cuts, contained only four tiny pieces of meat, which is far from what any reasonable guest would expect. Meanwhile, my other son’s chicken Alfredo pasta arrived with virtually no Alfredo sauce at all, turning what should have been a simple dish into a dry and disappointing plate. While the restaurant itself was not dirty, it was visibly neglected and poorly maintained, giving the impression of operational disorganization rather than normal peak-hour pressure. The General Manager can easily verify everything described here by reviewing the security cameras from that evening. I have no interest in wasting more time listening to explanations or excuses for what was, frankly, a complete operational failure. It is genuinely disappointing because the location itself has great potential. With proper management, accountability, and attention to execution, this could be a strong restaurant. Right now, however, it feels like the team is putting significant effort into doing everything the wrong way. I hope leadership takes this feedback seriously and implements meaningful changes, because guests deserve far better than what we experienced.

Had to walk out after 40 Minutes of waiting. Everyone was walking around also the manager was not paying attention to anything. All the tables were dirty and nobody were bothered to clean the table. Had to call for a server after waiting for 10-15 minutes. It was only few customers but still nobody was bothered to pay attention to any new customers.

I went today with my husband for a birthday dinner. We order 2 burgers meals. The meat was not cooked right as we recommend how we want it, the fries was soaked in oil. The wrong drinks was placed, even there was a small fly on my husband drink. We informed them of what happen & how we was not pleased. They only discounted us was one meal out that's like $10 awful. We half way finish our meal because its didn't taste right, the waitress didn't even acknowledge us about 25mins after I have to wave her attention. What a awful dinner we had. Never going there again.

Disappointing to say the least, came in on a saturday night with my toddler . And once i sat i immediately recognized that the server was not too enthused about the hosts seating selection. When he came over and introduced hisself it was as if he was in a rush, i ordered an appetizer and wasnt offered a drink once he got back i ordered a drink and my toddlers meal with a drink. He didnt offer or sell anything to me at any point didnt even tell me if the kids meal came with a beverage or not. In fact he wasnt even aware of what was in the drink that i ordered. Someone brougth the meal out and i never received the drink. I fanned him down to ask about it still never received it. I then asked another staff member to get me the drink and she did . Meanwhile my toddlers meal was already finished. I stacked plates during dining and not once did he remove any of them any time that he came back. It was as if he tried to stay away from our table intentionally. I havent dined at cpk in a while so i was excited to get a full course meal. After the service we received i was no longer interested in spending another dime in an establishment that i wasnt welcomed . I cashed out, still tipped him the bare minimum and went on my merry way. It is worth mentioning that the other staff members were polite ESPECIALLY the individuals at the host stand who were bubbly and being friendly to my toddler both on arrival and departure. Thank you individuals.
