California Pizza Kitchen

We had a good time for dinner here last night. The staff are very attentive, even though they got busy for dinner, our server kept checking in on us to make sure we were ok. This location is typical for the franchise. The ambience was very good and everything was clean. Our server took our drink orders and then shortly after she returned with all of the non-alcoholic drinks we were able to order our dinner. Food was surprisingly quick. Everything looked delicious and when we realized one of the dishes was not quite right, our server replaced it very quickly and we even had the manager approach our table and check in on our food and how we all were doing. Food was good and very filling. We ended our night with their secret off menu dessert: a Trash Burger. They take their Butter Cake, slice through it and add the Belgian Chocolate Souffle Cake in the middle. They top that off with Vanilla Ice Cream and Chocolate Drizzle--lots of chocolate drizzle. There's also whipped cream and chocolate syrup drizzled on the plate. It's good for at least 4 people and it's always such a treat to get.

We dine at the Pearlridge CPK often and saw renovations slowly taking place. We finally got a chance to dine with all of the renovations completed! An outdoor seating area was created which means there's ample seating and less wait. Yay! The inside is bright and has a modern feel to it. The best part is the food is still good and was served super fast. Our server, Sydney, was really nice and attentive! As we have been dining at various CPK restaurants for a number of years, we've had experiences ranging from not so great to fantatic. Tonight was one of the best so far! Hope they keep it up! 🤞😁

Friendly service and good atmosphere all over. Our favorite was the appetizer honey foccacia with gorgonzola (and ham?)! Our server, Chloe, was amazing and enhanced our dining experience. We also got the Sicilian pizza, BBQ chicken salad and tequila chicken fettucine. My husband said the chicken was a little dry but I thought it passable. Unfortunately not impressed with the BBQ chicken salad but that’s personal preference. I like to have more greens in my salad in general and this although tasty didn’t have enough greens to meet my personal standards. We finished the night with the Belgian chocolate cake with vanilla ice cream. I like the butter cake also but this cake was soooo good! Decadent, fudgy and moist. Perfect dessert to end the night.

--Edit: The owner likes to read reviews to improve their business. Always a good sign. I will probably eat here again for that reason.--- Food is a little overpriced but it is a really good. The old fashioned was pretty good but this Avocado Egg Roll was actually quite good. Although, I wouldn't call it that. More like a Chicken and bacon egg roll, by the way it also comes with Avocado. Nevertheless, it was really yummy and this place really tries to make good food have good service. Not over the top but I will say that the old fashion was definitely strong enough to make me forgot to take the rest of the pictures. Sorry.
