Stopped into California Pizza Kitchen tonight and had such a good experience from start to finish. They had a steady crowd, but I grabbed a seat at the bar right away which was perfect. The service was great, my server "Hunter" was super nice and helpful, and the whole staff seemed focused and on top of everything. I started with a red sangria and it was really good, refreshing and not too sweet. The avocado rolls were so fresh and packed with flavor, definitely a must order. I had the salmon piccata for my entrée and honestly... I was speechless. It was that good. Everything came out on time, nothing felt rushed, and the overall vibe just felt easy and enjoyable. I don't have any constructive feedback, this visit gets an A++ from me. read more

Ordered a bit of everything. Salad were fresh and pizza had a nice crust. Probably would have tasted fresher in house rather than take away. read more

3.75 Service- great, seated right away and server was super nice. Beer and a Bubbly mojito. Didn't love the mojito, but was decent.. Food: Buffalo cauliflower, Club pizzas, kids pizzas, shrimp and zucchini pasta dish. Also a barbecue chicken mac. Cauliflower is always great, light breaded, good spice. Club pizza was also very good, fresh avocado, and the kids enjoyed their personal pizzas. Shrimp zucchini pasta dish lacked flavor, somewhat watery. Barbecue Mac was ok, not great- but a good amount of chicken. Dessert- A couple churro dishes, a couple upside down cheesecakes with berries, and a brownie sundae. All good, berries were fresh, churro dessert seemed to be the best- flavor and crispiness. Overall a good meal for price, about $220 for 7. read more

Great pizza, great staff and even better location! This is where we go almost every time we're out shopping and it never disappoints. I do feel like sometimes they're understaffed as our server was running around the whole place to take care of everyone. read more

One of all time favorite places to grab a quick lunch and this one didn't disappoint. There was only a short 10 min wait on the Saturday before school started. The mall was packed and there were quite a few people in front of us so this was a nice surprise. The lettuce wrap appetizer, when I add shrimp and chicken that I can share with one of my kids and I'm full. They have the best strawberry lemonade out there. Our server was great. Everyone left full and happy. read more

Was recently here and today it seemed like nothing worked. You could clearly tell that the AC was not working. It was so hot in there. Almost made it impossible to enjoy my food. Also their soda machine was down, so in other words if you wanted a carbonated drink you were out of luck because none of the carbonated drinks were available due to the fact that their machine was down. Your only options for a drink were lemonade, ice tea, sweet tea or water. I feel like the last two times I've been here the AC has been out. Or they have something on the menu that is not actually in the restaurant. What we had today was the dumpling salad which was decent and a steak salad which was good too. This place wouldn't be my first choice for lunch or dinner. Specially if I am going to be sweating while eating. read more

If I could give 0 stars I would LAST PLACE TO GO TO AT THE TOWN CENTER I would rather starve then eat that cold pizza and tasteless food the servers are horrible no hostess the manger had to take over tor the server and it was SLOW in there read more

I was shopping at St. John's Town Center today and decided to stop here to grab some lunch. They have plenty of indoor, outdoor and hightop seating. The menu offers a wide variety of appetizers, salads, pizzas and entrees. Because I was so hot and had eaten at other locations of this chain previously, I opted for the Italian chopped salad. It comes with lettuce, turkey, salami, tomatoes, garbanzo beans, mozzarella cheese and fresh basil with a mustard vinaigrette dressing. It was exactly what I was looking for today. Service was quick and professional. read more

Came here for the second time which both experience was decent to get by. They did have a wait time even though there were some seat available. We asked to sit outside but the hostess said they didn't want to confuse the waiter ??? The food I can say it's okay. The only thing I dislike is the Italian chop, it didn't had any flavor at all but the Szechuan dumpling was good, the pizza my partner loved it but me personally I didn't but overall it was a decent experience read more

Ordered a to go order over the phone for a pepperoni pizza. I tried to call back 3 times to add something after and it kept going to voicemail. My roommate ordered a separate order as well. Both of our orders had hair in them and it clearly wasn't ours since we both have long brown hair and this was short very light brown boy hairs. It was on my pizza and in her buffalo cauliflower. So gross. For it being over $20 I'm pretty disappointed about this and I couldn't even finish it because of how grossed out I was. We called to let them know and all the girl said was "sorry"... read more

Came here for lunch with a party of 8 for lunch on Thursday (today)around 12pm and we were easily seated (in fact I think we were the only table the whole time we were there, sadly for the restaurant) the server was really attentive. Their menu is huge. I ordered the shrimp scampi zucchini with fettuccine. The food came out pretty quickly to other restaurants I've eaten at with a large group. I was really impressed with the shrimp scampi dish, it has a strong garlicky and lemon taste which I loved. I love the zucchini noodles. It was a very tasty, satisfying, healthy dish. I would definitely come back again and I want to try their salmon. read more

I've been a fan of CPK for years! Whether in San Diego or JAX, they've been consistently terrific with the pizzas and other choices on their menu. This was Veterans Day 2024 and I'm grateful that CPK was one of the many food and other business outlets across the country that were offering us free services, food, coffee, etc. for those who served this nation in its armed forces. For this, I'm always grateful. Well, after one plan for eats failed, the next place to visit was CPK. It was busy, as expected but fortunately we didn't have to wait long. A fifteen minute expected wait time turned into two minutes. I will say the restaurant was rather crowded and it was loud inside. The only reason I didn't go outside to the patio was because it was still warm and humid inside. The service was overall good. And as a former Domino's Pizza manager I can say I was very pleased with the product as well! Items on the pizza were generous, laid out evenly and across the pizza and the cheese and marinara sauce were in correct amounts too. The carne asada pizza has always been my favorite here. And this one didn't disappoint! Our server forgot to bring the sauce for it but brought it when I reminded him. No harm! No foul! The other pizza was very good as well! The pepperoni, mushroom, sausage pizza came off the Veterans Day menus. We had five or six choices and I was very pleased with mine. It was a great time to celebrate Veterans Day once again in 2024! It is awesome that many in our nation love to serve Veterans and give what they can to us in appreciation for our service and I can say also say that what they do for us means a ton to us and makes our serving this nation even more special. Thank you CPK! Recommend: HIGH read more

It was a nice was alright. All pizzas have only 6 slices. Not enough to go around and maybe that is the idea to order more. (Felt like I was in Wendy's) Need more Authentic vibes and more options! read more

There are some chains which should not be chains, but then there are others which are great, and always dependable! That's what I think you get in value when you hit CPK, the menu is always huge, the service is quick, and the food tastes great! Whether it's the variety of salads, pizzas, or other entrees, we always have a great meal here and as such I recommend! read more

I needed to use some of the 'bonus' cards from my purchase of gift cards over the holidays. I am a huge fan of their salads, but decided to try something different and warm since it is nippy outside. The Shrimp Scampi Zucchini was wonderful!! Very flavorful and nicely prepared and presented. The service provided by Steven was perfect as I was dining alone and reading a book as I ate. He was attentive and responsive to my requests, including preparing a pot of decaf coffee for me to go with my key lime pie (another favorite on the menu. The restaurant was a comfortable temperature and the restroom is clean and well serviced. Sorry, no pictures ---- read more

I haven't been to a California pizza kitchen and I was amazed. The staff alone there made everything that much more enjoyable the bartender Hunter and the general manager were so friendly and amazing and genuine. I didn't get everyone's names, but everyone said hi to me and chatted the whole time. Their pizzas are cooked in a brick oven. I got the Burrata pizza. The crust was so crispy and the toppings were so crushed and delicious. Mine came with a side salad, and I got the Italian. It had so many ingredients in it. It was so good. The menu was pretty big. I can't wait to go back and keep trying the rest of it. I sat at the bar and it looks like it's an open concept. It's an open concept and you can see everything which I like they keep the place very clean. It's way better than I remember. I loved it. read more

Eating lunch at Town Center Mall is not my first choice. But sometimes you get hungry while shopping. This isn't a bad choice especially the lunch duos on Mondays through Fridays from 11 AM - 4 PM. For $11.99, you can pick a personal size pizza or a salad; pasta or a salad. Usually no wait time to be seated. Fun cocktails and mock tails. read more

I would give a five for our server Loren! She was amazing! The hostess not so much! We were there Friday Jan 2. We were a party of 7 adults and 2 kids.The pizza was great! The only negative was the hostess! She definitely needs to work on her customer service skills! Maybe some training is needed! We will definitely go back and hopefully Loren is our server! read more

We had been shopping in Town Center for longer than we anticipated and got a bit hungry. We stopped in CPK honestly because we have liked their frozen pizza selections. It took a few minutes but we were seated and our server seemed to have all the tables in the area. She did a great job managing this and really kept the review high. She was efficient and very attentive. We ordered the original BBQ chicken pizza and added pineapple. We didn't wait long for the pizza to be brought to the table. The pizza was so fresh and flavorful. The location does have a happy hour and does have a Take Out section and a full bar to eat at. All in all our experience was very good and earned 4 stars. We will be back to try other things as well as the take home frozen pizza that is offered. read more

OMG!! This is the only place you should come when you go to town center. First the service was amazing! Everyone was so kind and respectful. Second, THE FOOD... It was SO GOOD!! The flavors were amazing as you could taste everything inside the pizza. Even pizza hut needs to take notes on how to cook pizza! Definitely a stomach filling meal after shopping! My new favorite place! read more

The waitress did a great job of telling us what they didn't have for the drinks we wanted but also it was the options we wanted. She did the best she could with what was available but still would have liked one of the top 3 options I wanted.... The bar was no wait, very casual and the drinks we did end up with were good. We also opted for the dynamite shrimp and it was pretty good. Overall it's the same old standard franchise. read more

Horrible service and my daughter caught a server under the name of Ally. Doing Cocaine in the bathroom with another co-worker. Food was overall good but the experience . I would never bring myself or my kids here again. Never Knew Family friendly meant lines of Cocaine. Even Called the Manager and was completely ignored. Still nothing done when everyone is on drugs. I feel as a family friendly business drugs test should be given. My daughter asked questions she shouldn't have to at 9. read more

Great service, restaurant very clean, and food is amazing. Ordered the California club (so flavorful and fresh ingredients - bacon, chicken, avocado, lettuce, tomato) Have had the pizza before too. My fav two are bbq chicken and marghertia. I like the crust bc they are thin and crispy. If you are thinking about getting pizza def give this place a try, you won't be disappointed read more

My family and I enjoyed coming to CPK whenever we're at the st.john's town center but we haven't been in a while up until now. One thing my brother and mother both pointed out was that the menu seemed to have been shortened/reduced. I'm not entirely sure this is true but they did have a few items missing that we used to get often. Our server also took a long time to bring us the sugar we asked for 3 separate time. She also forgot to get my brother a kids menu despite that being the first thing we asked for. And to top it off, I asked for bread twice and we ended up not even getting it. Overall it was pretty upsetting considering how excited my brother was to eat here. read more

Not many times do I go out to eat and get exceptional service but today .... was phenomenal!!! My food was great, my drinks were perfect, my waitress was exceptional and I'm not kidding! I literally just dropped over 100.00 on Wednesday at a place in Town Center that is know for their cheesecake and got poor service.... this place was on point!!!!! Don't sleep on California Pizza Kitchen.... it's not only good for pizza (and it's pretty good), but ... I've mentioned before that I love sangria .... not juice but legit Sangria ... I go here every time I shop at Town Center (not often, but enough) .... Why do I come back? Exactly this .... great food and great service! I'm not kidding! It's clean, the staff is friendly with smiles, you can see your food being cooked (open kitchen), it's just amazing! read more

My friends and I wanted some dinner after we did our raid hour for PoGo. We were waiting at the front area for about a minute or so before a staff acknowledged us and stated to be right with us soon as they were short-staffed. It was understandable due to the new safety measures for COVID. However, we waited another minute or so and thought maybe they forgot about us and so we were contemplating whether to go elsewhere. Luckily, a staff came around on time and we seated near the kitchen area. The floors, tables and restrooms were marked for safe distance purposes. Our waiter came by and took our order. I ordered the Carne Asada Pizza with cauliflower crust. As per their menu, the Carne Asada consists of the following: Tender marinated steak, fire-roasted poblanos, cilantro pesto, yellow onions, Mozzarella, Monterey Jack and fresh cilantro. Served with housemade salsa verde. Overall, the pizza was really good and the steak was cooked well. The cheese melted nicely and adding the salsa verde was a good combo. I won't mind coming again as they have keto and gluten friendly options. To add, the last time I was here, I had the lunch combo of a small pizza mushroom and Spinach with tomato bisque which was superb. read more

I came for my mother-in-law's birthday, and the food was not good, the pizza almost without cheese, the pasta didn't taste good and the chicken was overcooked; I can't complain about the service and a regular atmosphere. I wouldn't come back, for me 0 recommended, sorry read more

Nice place for dinner. I had the tomato basil pasta with goat cheese and grilled chicken. The pasta was hot and fresh; the garlic and basil flavors with the goat cheese were a great combination. The bread with olive oil dipping sauce was a nice complement to my meal . read more

Unfortunately we were not able to eat at your restaurant today. Upon walking in the door there was a pungent smell engulfing the entire restaurant.
