Food was great but..our server Jennifer never asked if we needed anything but the check. She chatted with the table next to us for 10 minutes not focusing on any other tables. I had to get up and ask other servers for assistance. Bad service great atmosphere and tasty food. Beware of Jen the server

Been here a few times - all have been great. I just normally sit by the bar and have 2 or 4/5 drinks and a bite to eat haha. Bartenders are chill and easy going. Will stop by if im near the neighborhood and want a drink.

Been going to this California Pizza Kitchen for years and the food is usually good. We keep coming back. This last time though the service was slow and uninspired. The pasta with meat sauce was VERY light on sauce. The pizza, however, wasn't bad. It was the Neopolitan Burrata.

Walked in for a late lunch, it was quiet after a possible lunch rush. We were greeted by the bartender as we sat at the bar. The bartender was awesome, really sweet lady and took our order quick, 5-stars for her. I had the steakhouse salad and the salad was good. The steak bites in the salad sucked terribly. They were dry, overcooked, and each bite tasted burnt. Salad gets 3 stars. Atmosphere I give 3 stars only because it was still dirty around the restaurant.

To be honest, I haven’t been to a CPK in years, but my coworkers suggested it for lunch since they have some solid specials for a good price. They offer a bunch of ½ + ½ combos, and I went with the BBQ chicken salad and a personal Thai chicken pizza. The salad was tasty fresh and flavorful. The pizza was okay; I remember liking it more in the past, but this time the crust was a little hard. They also give you free bread with olive oil and vinegar, and I really liked that dip. Overall, it was a decent lunch for the price. Service was quick, which is great if you’re on a lunch break if you’re in a hurry, I’d recommend ordering from the bar.

There was a BIG mess up with my take away order (cheese pizza with veggies and pineapple) and I made it very clear as I am allergic to onion and garlic. The first take away was messed up as they added sauce to the pizza (sauce has garlic) and that night dinner I could not have as I was in a hotel and tired and I almost ended up having the pizza and then called and then they asked me to pick up (they should have delivered) and I had to pick the pizza the next day and thanks to Alexis who made the order execution correct this time.

Watermelon+Strawberry Salad was refreshing. Two pizzas were so so. Well, just a dinner and mingle with friends. The atmosphere was good. However, parking in Pasadena is challenging. Even with validation, we have to pay $7 per car after dinner.

Happy hour is a good deal, but if you order the pizza on happy hour make sure you tell them because they won’t double check that’s what you want. I ended up paying $20 for a pizza, but I wanted the happy hour. The buffalo Cauliflower is so good. And this new drink they have called a Paloma is delicious.

We stopped by this location on the way home from LA. The location it's at can be a little pain in regards to parking depending on the time of the day. In total, there were 4 of us. The hostess was responsive and friendly. We sat down within 10 minutes upon arriving. It was roughly 2 pm Sunday afternoon. My fiancée ordered Tequila Fettuccine, and I ordered Alfredo Fettuccine. It came out within 15 minutes of us ordering, and it was nice and hot, tasteful as usual! The server was friendly and attentive. They were advertising that you can order their pizza's to take home for $8.00 a piece. We left with 2! I'd definitely come back here if we were in the vicinity again.

Great selection of food with friendly and attentive Staff. BBQ Chicken Salad is fantastic. Large servings! I highly recommend for a large Lunch or Dinner. Also has a 🍸 Bar, if you'd like a cocktail.

Hadn’t been into a CPK restaurant in years. I’d give a 4.5 stars if I could. Food was great, the mocktail selection was very impressive and we loved the cucumber one! Can’t go wrong with getting Butter Cake for dessert. It was busy so we had to ask for water and flag down the server for the check. Overall, we had a lovely evening though!

The service and food were very mediocre. We didn’t feel very welcomed. Mind you, the restaurant was extremely cold with the AC turned on to the MAX. The artichoke dip was very watery. And, the margherita pizza—well, let’s just say that it was nothing extraordinary. They do validate your parking ticket, which was good. Based on the dining experience we had today, I honestly don’t think we’ll want to come back.

We hosted a birthday party here, and the staff was very helpful during the initial planning process. However, the experience fell short once we arrived. We expected everything to be set up and ready at the scheduled time, but instead we were handed a bag of aprons and hats and had to distribute them ourselves. Additionally, we never received the chef coat that was promised. The on-site manager told us he would order one and that we could pick it up within a week. When we called a week later, another manager said there was no record of it and promised a callback that never came. I followed up again by email a couple of weeks later and still received no response. Basically once you give them your money, don't expect anything else.

the food and service at this location is subpar. it is mostly this location but in all CPK food is not as good as it used to be . the pizza had a soggy bottom when it came out , the chicken on it was dry and we had to ask the gentleman bussing tables to get us the check because we count get the attention of a server, they were all standing around on the other side of the restaurant talking. the experience is not unique to this occasion it has been multiple times different issues. WE WILL NOT BE GOING BACK and I will let friends and family know not to waste their money at CPK.

Has California Pizza Kitchen come under new ownership? We used to be able to rely on delicious pizzas, pretty good chopped salad and the best key lime pie in town. The last two times we ordered from them they were not as good, but last night was rock bottom! The wild mushroom pizza did not have any wild mushrooms but ordinary Cremini mushrooms you get in the grocery store, I asked for extra Parmesan cheese but almost no cheese in sight and the crust was awful…dry and tasteless. Also they discontinued the key lime pie! I specifically asked for garbanzo beans in the chopped salad, but I guess they forgot although the rest of the salad was good. What happened to you?
