This was my first time eating at a California Pizza Kitchen and I was rather shocked at the high quality of food they serve compared to the mediocre image I created in my head. The interior was also well decorated and maintained, and our server was over the top accommodating. Our food came out fresh and hot, and we even scored 2 take-and-bake specialty pizzas for $20 with their latest promotion that allows you to take home a $10 pizza for every entree you purchase. Complimentary bread with olive oil and spices come with your meal as an appetizer, which was great since I ordered the two-in-a-bowl soup with tomato basil bisque and sedona tortilla. I loved dipping the bread in the tomato bisque and our server brought extra tortilla chip strips. I also ordered a half portion of the original BBQ chicken chopped salad, which admittedly was a very large amount, so I would recommend always getting the half size, especially if you plan to eat something else alongside it. The salad was really well dressed and balanced in all its ingredients, plus the chicken on top was delicious as expected given their BBQ sauce is a crowd favorite. I also tried the burnt ends mac n' cheese, which blew my socks right off! The pickled red onions added an incredible pop of flavor to contrast the smoky, cheesy dish, and lightened each bite despite its heavy nature. read more

We had a late lunch here and chose to sit outside. It was a nice shaded outdoor area, however, only one fan was working. We were seated fairly quickly and Rick, our server, took our drink order and shortly after took our food order. There was a little bit of a wait, but it was well worth it. I had the half Thai Crunch Salad, my kids had the BBQ chicken pizza (they ran out of the burnt meat for the burnt BBQ pizza), the BBQ chicken Mac and Cheese, the half Charcuterie Salad, and a half Crispy Chinese Dumpling Salad. Everyone enjoyed their food. Rick checked on us frequently and was a pleasure to have as our server. We would definitely eat here again and have Rick as our server. read more

I enjoyed a lovely lunch at CPK with my adult daughter today. We chose to sat on the patio which although warm had a nice breeze and blowing through it. We each had a lunch duo. I chose the mushroom pizza and Thai crunch salad. She chose the Mediterranean sandwich and Italian chopped salad. CPK's Thai crunch salad is one of my all time favorite salads. If you haven't tried it, please do! It's absolutely delicious. It pairs perfectly with the mushroom pizza. My daughter really enjoyed her Italian chopped salad but found the Mediterranean sandwich to be much heavier than she wanted / was expecting. Did she eat it? Yes. But she did say that next time she would probably pick something else. As usual, the service was excellent. We will definitely be back for more lunch duos. read more

My wife and I came to this California Pizza Kitchen last night with her brother to grab dinner. It been awhile since I came to this location like over 10 years so I was interested in coming here and using my CPK reward before it expires. I parked at the parking garage near the restaurant and the garage was not busy at all. We got seated quick and our waiter was Dillion. We started off with water and my wife got the Passion Fruit Tea, we also asked for bread. It took him awhile to bring the bread. My wife got the Cedar Plank Salmon, her brother got The Works pizza and I got the lettuce wrapped with chicken and shrimp. We also asked for more bread and Dillion said he'll bring some when they are out from the oven. We saw our waiter go to other tables and also bring them bread but he totally forgot about us. Our food took awhile to come out too and when it did, it was someone else who brought it to our table so I just asked her for more bread which she brought out quickly. We all enjoy our food when it came out, we were just waiting for our water refill but our waiter just never look our way or came to our table to check up on us. I waited and waited but he just never looked our way while helping other table so I just got up and walked up to him at the bar area when he was talking to one of the cooks. I asked for more water and bread along with the check to speed things up. The food was fine, we had no issues with it besides taking long to come out but the service with the waiter was just bad yesterday. read more

I didn't get positive vibes from the host. As I was walking by I saw an empty booth which I thought perfect no wait. As we entered, we asked for a booth, host told us no booths available. They only have tables available which is fine no big deal. We waited for 5 to 10 minutes, then we got the booth that I saw earlier. I don't know why he made us wait maybe because didn't want to walk and check. Anyways, our server Brady was super nice and helpful. He experienced the menu and new items they had. He checked on us constantly and asking, if everything was ok. We ordered pastas which they were delicious and full of flavor. Their complimentary bread and olive oil is out of this world. It is so good and it's one of my favorite things in CPK. Parking is easy. You can either park in the structure next door or park in the mall and walk . Parking in this location is very convenient which makes it one of my favorite CPKs in LA. read more

My wife, her client and I visit this California pizza kitchen often. The staff it's always friendly and many of them know us by our names. We like to come on the weekdays and take advantage of their lunch duo. However, today, my wife and I sat at the bar. Angel was the bartender and our server. He was kind and must really enjoy his work as he was singing tunes all day. The BBQ Chicken salad is one of our favorites, we were not disappointed. The shaking beef has a sweet taste to it, it was our first time trying it. If you like the sweet taste then I would recommend if not then no. read more

My jambalaya was good. Sam Adams was cold and delicious. My wife's Cucumber Reviver drink was delicious. Her salad was not good. Cold potatoes, cold steak and not fresh onions. The manager comped her salad. They advertised a "Free Starter Today" if you join rewards but it's not today- it should say "Free Starter Next Time". Seems kind of tricky. Oh well. That's it. read more

The service is amazing!!! Dillon is our preferred server. He is friendly, courteous and our food comes out quickly and is hot and delectable!!!! Dillon is quite an outstanding professional server and has worked at the Burbank California Pizza Kitchen for ten years!!! He even received a plaque for his service. We always ask for him. He takes the time to get to know everyone. You should definitely ask for him as a server!!!!!! My husband had the Margarita pizza and we enjoyed the appetizer of dynamite shrimp. The complimentary bread with olive oil and balsamic vinegar is always very fresh bread!!!! I ordered the salmon picatta with smaller noodles and no capers I also added olive oil to my noodles and salmon. I also had parmesan on my salmon. The ambiance has loud contemporary music. The ambiance of the interior restaurant is minimalistic with either wooden tables and chairs or comfy booths. You definitely should become a CPK member as there are many benefits. There current membership special is order 3 meals and then the 4th entree is free before July 7, 2026. It is a wonderful promotion starting today!!! You also get benefits and discounts through out the year as well as during your birthday month. Enjoy!!!!! read more

Now your talking! We only come to this location when Anna is working, she is amazing in everything she does here at the restaurant. My go to plate is the Chicken Piccada. Love the sauce and capers. The pasta is very tasty with lots of of extra sauce to made the dish just right. Compliments to the Chef. The restaurant provides a television to watch your favorite football team on Sunday or listen to the background music. The corkage fee is out of this world. Only $10 per bottle. read more

I went here on July 12 with family. I liked that there were windows to let the sunlight in. For the starter, I had the dynamite shrimp. It was great because of how spicy and crunchy it was. My main course was the Margherita pizza. It tasted like a traditional Italian pizza. I loved how cheesy it was, it had the right amount of cheese, tomato, and basil. Service was good. The waiter refilled the glass of water the person I was with. read more

You see a picture of the two items that are my favorites at CPK...somehow I always order these two. Had a lovely lunch with my daughter. The Thai salad is so good. I can eat it every day. It's crunchy, flavorful and delicious. This location is right by the mall. It's been here for a while and I have been here many times but just realized that I never wrote a review. It's a bit dated and customer service needs improvement. Other than that it's a good spot to eat lunch or dinner. read more

I had a terrible experience at California Pizza Kitchen because of an employee named Brady. He was rude, disrespectful, and completely unprofessional. His attitude made the whole visit uncomfortable and ruined the experience. Customer service should be a priority, and this was unacceptable. I won't be coming back if this is how customers are treated. read more

This was our first time at this CPK and we loved it. Parking is easy, the place is large with nice spacing between the tables and it, as most CPKs is very clean. It is also very pretty inside and out. It was a little crowded but we were seated right away and a server was with us in a minute. The menu is the same at most CPKs so we knew what we wanted, having been to so many of them. Or server was great. She got our order right and was very nice. We had a BBQ pizza, which is so good with chicken and a wonderful BBQ sauce on it. We also had a Thai pizza, one of our favorites and this also comes with chicken and a Caesars salad which was great and their chopped Italian salad which we love. All of it was great. We had lemonade which was very tasty. What we really loved was their red velvet cake. We don't usually get dessert but it was so good, we also got one to take home. It lasted less than an hour at home, next time we will get three of them. It is just the best. It is moist and the frosting is not too sweet and it comes with whipped cream. We had a great time and so will you. read more

Placed an online order, walked in the hostess was a little rude but okay I get it. It's busy so whatever didn't take it personal. She just pointed at the "take out" sign. As I'm there the guy asked the name of the order and he said "you haven't paid" which I'm fully aware of. He rings me up and he's FOCUSED on seeing if I'm leaving tips and I don't like leaving card tips I only do cash tips. But once he saw I pressed "zero tips" his attitude got worse, he was literally throwing my utensils in my bag, not placing them in TOSSING it. The bread also was tossed in my bag. Please take a look at your cámaras to confirm. Cause that is unacceptable! This happened Sunday the 21st at around 7:40pm. I was going to leave him cash tips but once I realized, I said Never mind! Train your people better cpk. read more

I stopped in to eat on a weekday so the restaurant wasn't super busy. The hostess & staff were super friendly. My server was attentive & she made recommendations. I ordered the famous bbq chicken pizza with a Summer cocktail. I have no complaints, everything was delicious. I was even offered warm bread with dipping oil, but be careful that bread is addicting. Also I asked about the rewards program & the waitress assisted me in recovering my password on the cpk app. I was able to earn points for $$$ off future dining with cpk. I am sad to say they no longer offer the artichoke salad on their menu & I hope they bring it back in the near future. Overall I had a great experience & look forward to come back to dine in & try other entrees. read more

CPk is a tried and true SoCal chain. Since 1985, the quality of the product seems to be consistent, regardless of the location. CPK has restaurants in over 15 different countries, and they have one of the best chop salads I've ever had. On this particular occasion, we had the Italian Chop Salad, the Cedar Plank Salmon and the Chicken Piccata. The Salmon comes with white corn & spinach succotash topped with Feta. Everything was very satisfying. Also, they do a nice job of making a martini. While it's not gourmet, CPK always delivers. The food and the service are very reliable, and I like that the menu has a calorie count for every dish. Also, there are no hidden fess added to the bill. You can't go wrong at CPK. read more

I ordered the new Steak salad! What a mistake! The salad was stale and old. The potato's were supposed to be fried and hot and they were cold. The onions seemed old, the lettuce and arugula were soggy. The steak had no spices, no taste, my husband did end up eating the meat mixed in his dish. The manager was nice enough to comp it that's why I am giving 3 stars. read more

Our party of 11 had a late lunch at this CPK in Burbank. Food was delicious and our waitress Denise was great. Thank you Denise! We informed her that two people in our party had peanut and tree nut food allergies. She made sure to have our Mac 'N' Cheese free of any cross contamination in the kitchen. They brought our food out in no longer than 20 minutes. We ordered 4 adult portions of Mac 'N' Cheese, Chicken Piccata, West Coast Burger, New Lettuce Chicken Wrap, Thai Crunch Chicken Salad, Thai BBQ Pizza among other food items. They were all delicious and served with perfect temperature. They were all fresh from the kitchen when delivered to our table. The Chicken Piccata was not as saucy as I thought it would be. It was made just right. The taste was also good and has a little bit of a lemon zest to it. The chicken breasts were all cooked to perfection. We also enjoyed the new Lettuce Wrap with chicken. The sauce paired with it was good. The lettuce was crispy and fresh. The chicken was chopped and seasoned to balance the taste of the ginger soy sauce. We frequent CPK for both lunch and dinner. We will continue to visit other CPK locations in whatever city or state we are at. read more

I hadn't been to California Pizza Kitchen in years and had such fond memories of this location from back in the day, so we thought we'd give it a try. Big mistake. The second we walked in, something just felt off. There's this weird stuffy smell in the air, like the whole place has been sitting there collecting dust for years. Our table was wobbly, and everything just had that tired, forgotten energy. We ordered a couple salads and pizzas...both were sad. The pizza wasn't even warm when it came out (how do you mess that up?), and the salads looked cheap, stale and stingy. For the prices they charge, it's ridiculous. Honestly, I don't know how places like this stay in business. It's not even close to what CPK used to be. Total disappointment. read more

My bf got gift cards to this place for Christmas so we reluctantly came back in early January to try them out again for lunch. The day we arrived they were short staffed so it took about 20 minutes to get seated. There were already about 8-10 people waiting. The waiter was nice and was working hard to manage all of the customers. We ordered the pepperoni pizza and salmon plank which comes with corn. Our food arrived at the same time this time, which we appreciated. It was pretty good. Today we used the remaining balance on our gift card and ordered the same food for take out. Our meals were good, thought the salmon seemed a bit over-cooked and dry, it was ok. The pizza was very good. The complimentary bread was also good. I wanted to make sure to update this review because the one I left them before had been so critical. I think considering all of our experiences here that 3 stars is appropriate. read more

What's not to like at CPK! Close to the mall, great parking, nice ambiance and yummy eats! Today I ordered their French martini, which has pineapple juice and Chambord, but I really didn't taste much of the black raspberry in there. The margherita pizza and wedge salad are always on point. I really love the consistency here and that they provide gluten free items. It would be even better if they offered gluten-free pasta, but I guess I could dream. read more

Half price happy hour. Waiting for my movie to start, you cannot beat $6 pizza and beer. Cocktails half off, I had a sunshine drink with mango and tequila and peach. It was a little syrupy. Beer came free with pizza. Personal size with cheese Cold rainy day, 3 people in the whole place. Quiet, a little chilly in here. Service was promlt but sometimes servers are almost bothered by customers. Mine warmed up after we chatted. They have drinks ore mixed but I guess it's not really meant for great cocktails. Vague about pizza and happy hour specials, you have to inquire. I will come in again. Parking close by on the lot. read more

CPK is always a fun place to dine. I forgot how much I like it since the last time I was in. It seems to me like their menu was streamlined but there is still a variety of options and ways to customize dishes to make it fit what you're looking for. They're known for pizza and pasta, both of which there is a lot of variety in the menu. Lots of vegetarian options, but more limited for vegan options, without removing a few things. Most dishes have meat as a key feature or cheese, as expected. Not really an issue for me, but just an observation. My table had the Thai Crunch Salad and it was delicious! My friends had a couple different pasta dishes, both of which were delicious. Solid portion sizes and everything tasted great! Our service was great. Friendly and attentive. Our waiter even brought us some extra bread for the table, which was much appreciated. Lots of tables inside and an outdoor patio that is covered. The ambiance is nice, and while it can be busy, doesn't feel overly crowded and loud. The tables are spaced to have some privacy, which is nice. read more

Ok so I think this is just a location issue. I have been to plenty of CPK's around the Los Angeles area and Burbank location is by far the worst. Everything that could've went wrong during my visit went wrong. Ordered three pizzas one of the pizzas had to be remade due to it being raw in the middle. When the remake pizza came back to the table. It was cooked all right , but it wasn't cut. Soda machine was broken so no sodas Service was not great, it was like the server was intentionally avoiding the table. I had to walk up to the counter to ask for the pizza to be remade . Had to ask for boxes three times , asked for a normal size pizza box and a small size. He brought over a normal size box and salad container. Then when it came time to pay my tab, I paid with a gift card. He proceeded to bring the check back to the table and I had to correct him that there was still money left on the gift card. He apologized and said oh you're right, let me go get that for you. Right now they are running a promotion where they are handing out Manager cards. No Manager cards were offered so I had to ask for Manager cards And a pen to sign the receipt for the bill. Felt bad because I normally tip really good but I could not justify leaving a tip with the service I experienced. I will be going back to CPK but not this location ever again. 3/11/25 UPDATE- I provided feedback at the website the asked me to read more

I truly wish I could give this place five stars. I'm not someone who usually writes negative reviews, but I feel I have to share my honest experience. While the service was impeccable, unfortunately the food did not meet expectations. I ordered the fettuccine Alfredo with chicken. The pasta was slightly undercooked and a bit firm, and the dish overall was quite dry. It seemed like there was very little sauce. I also ordered a half portion of the Chinese chicken salad. Years ago, I remember it being a mix of lettuce, cabbage, chicken, mandarin oranges, and crunchy stick-shaped croutons. This time, it was mostly red cabbage with a few carrots and zucchini in a sweet sauce. It felt like a major downgrade from what it used to be. I do want to highlight that Javier did an outstanding job. I wish all servers were like him. He consistently checked in on us, made sure everything was okay, and maintained such a bright and positive attitude that it truly enhanced the dining experience. The ambiance was pleasant, and the restaurant was very clean. As for the food, perhaps it was just an off night, but based on this visit, it was disappointing. read more

Terrible sewage smell wafts throughout the patio area. I had to leave it was unbearable.

Obviously, CPK has been around for decades and has a following, but to me, for them to survive in this particular location after IKEA closed (reducing traffic to a crawl) and the Pandemic raged, is quite amazing. Kudos. The food is good, decent value, the staff is always pleasant and professional and, inside the location, the ambiance is what you've come to expect from a CPK. The direct outside is a bit of a ghost town, but there's plenty to do nearby with a short walk around or through the mall. To say there's plenty of nearby parking is a vast understatement! read more
