Straight fire. Sometimes there’s a short wait but it is worth it. I love their app, I get rewards for checking in and buying pizza. The bar is nice, tables are cool. Good pizza with fun options, outside dining, and a nice interior as well

For a few years now I've been a bit skeptic about trying CPK's pizza. But after finally trying them for the very first time ever this past Mayday, was pleasantly surprised about the great taste. I first tried their frozen pizza some 10 years ago but was never anything to write home about and maybe average-tasting at best among any other frozen pizza brands I regularly purchase. I currently shop for specific styles of particular frozen pizza brands and I love the way they all taste. The overall menu here is decent with a fairly extensive beer/wine/cocktail list but the appetizer choices were on the short side. The hand-tossed create-your-own pizza we had was delicious with fresh ingredients bolstered by exceptional customer service from our server Michelle. If ever down at Old Orchard or in the area again, would definitely come back for some tasty pizza.

Food: we ordered a margherita pizza and fettuccine Alfredo. The margherita pizza was excellent with crispy edges and a thin crust. The sauce was spot on. If we just ordered the pizza, this place would’ve had a full mark, but they fell short when it came to the pasta. Very bland. Service: the waiters were super friendly and chatty. Quick and efficient service. Atmosphere: the place was semi empty and the bg music was great. Everything seems clean. 7.2/10, recommend for all the mall visitors and people living close to it, but I wouldn’t drive just to try it.

This is my first time at the California Pizza Kitchen located in Old Orchard (Skokie, IL) and it's been since pre-COVID when I last ate at another location. Met a friend for an early dinner on a weekday. We stood at the front of the restaurant before anyone acknowledged us and seated us. There were only three tables occupied and several people at the bar. Our waiter was friendly and attentive. Bread and seasoned olive oil is complimentary. We ordered Mexican Corn and the Wild Mushroom Pizza. It was very good. Our waiter told us about the Take & Bake $9 Pizza, so I got the Margarita Pizza for tomorrow. Thanks and I'll be back to try more pizzas.

Walked in with only two tables seated...Our server was great, very attentive and friendly... We ordered the guacamole and chips for an appetizer and it didn't disappoint...Freshly made and just the right ingredients for restaurant style guacamole...The price point wasn't bad for it either...Most restaurants charge a ridiculous amount of money for guacamole...Here they charged just over $8 dollars...Not the best, but pretty close... I ordered the Thai Salad with chicken and it was darn yummy...Very filling and the taste is always on point...It had plenty of chicken and vegetables...The peanut/lime dressing is just so yummy... In addition, we ordered vegetable pizza...Very fresh tasting with a variety of veggies... The only knock was their Coca Cola tasted like diet, which it was not...I figure it must be their fountain machine... Will definitely come back... Taste ☑️ Service☑️ Price🆗

I believe Connor was our server's name. He was great! Super friendly and attentive and just great would love to see him again. I came in with my sister and everything was great. I LOVED this drink very fruity, sweet, and tasty. 🍹I had the white corn guacamole with blue corn tortilla chips which was very yummy as well as the plant based BBQ chicken pizza. I'll probably say no cilantro next time I don't love cilantro and there was a lot but that's a me problem, really, it was overall a delicious pizza. We paid the xtra 1.50 for pineapple bc it really goes with the BBQ sauce and is so worth it for the freshness and sweetness. I also really recommend the lettuce wraps which I only had a little bit of and don't have a picture of but the sauce is so good 😋 👌 and they gave us nice, big, fresh lettuce cups 🥬As a vegan consumer I was very happy. The one thing I'm missing is a little dessert. I would LOVE a vegan version of that chocolate cake you have 🍫Häagen-Dazs has vegan ice cream ya know 😉😇😅🥰

California Pizza Kitchen is a take on the california style healthy and extra thin pizza you might find on the westcoast. The good thing about this place is the decor, ambiance, nice open kitchen, and outdoor patio. They also have exceptional service. Sadly I found the pizza and the experience to be slightly overrated. For the price and size of portions, there are much better options in Chicagoland. The pizza is super thin and the ingredients are quality but even the Wild Mushroom Pizza, I was wondering where the wild mushrooms were.. it def had mushrooms but didnt really get too much of the wild mushrooms they mentioned. It did come with truffle oil for an extra dollar or so.. but was still just okay.. The 5 cheese pizza with fresh tomatos was good but nothing special.

While at the mall i wanted to try some pasta from here. The restaurant needs to be updated and cleaned, specially the outside area. As for the food, I tried the Garlic cream fettuccine and tequila chicken fettuccine. Both of the dishes were of good size and they were ok. The drinks are ok as well. The service was good, our server did take the time to come around a few times. I think I'll try another place next time.

The place is nice,clean and Friendly. Not many options for vegetarian. They have the best lemonade, taste so good. free complimentary bread and oil. We ordered Tostada pizza but to me it tasted like chipotle.

Carne Asada with Avocado. That avocado is too brown to be passable. Appetite ruined.

This place was so bad. Service was terrible. Spinach dip was basically spinach soup. They gave us the bottom of the bag of chips (literally all crumbs). Pizza was mid. Will never come back.

This was our first and last visit to California Pizza Kitchen. My family and I were the very first ones seated today. While waiting, we noticed that two tables who arrived after us were given bread, yet we were not. I asked our server if we could have some bread as well, especially since my daughter was getting hungry, and he told us there was a wait. We never ended up receiving any bread at all, which felt rude and unfair considering we were there first. When our food finally arrived, everyone got their meal except me. The server told me they forgot to add pepperoni to my pizza and had to remake it. Overall, the food was mid and definitely not worth the price. The service was disappointing, and the experience left a bad impression. We will not be coming back.

we ordered 2 items, both were completely wrong! this is the mushroom pepperoni sausage pizza we ordered last night. i get home and open the box, I immediately call CPK and talk to a guy named sebastian, he almost seemed like he was expecting my call. he told me that when my wife ordered the food online that she must have clicked on all the ingredients and requested a blank pizza. I said, wait, why didnt you call and say hey, did you just order our mushroom pepperoni and sausage pizza and request just the dough? he said i did call and i asked your wife on the pasta order that you ordered to confirm what kind of noodles she wanted. He basically told me that it was my wifes fault for spending 53 dollars on 2 items from CPK that cam back completely bare of the expected ingredients. my question is how does the person making the pizzas not say hey, something is wrong, i am not making a blank pizza when the customer clearly ordered our mushroom pepperoni and sausage pizza
