I mean, it's CPK. Solid food and a solid service experience, but no real frills, and I'm A-OK with that! I appreciate that they're starting to branch out by offering more seasonal stuff in addition to their regular menu of standard pizzas, pastas, and whatnot. I got a caesar salad and tried their seasonal flatbread, which had bacon, brussels sprouts, caramelized onions, and goat cheese. It was a nice light pairing for lunch, and I enjoyed! My fiance got the tortilla soup (which comes in a HUGE bowl!) and the chipotle chicken pizza, which was so smothered in corn and black bean salsa I wasn't even sure there was chicken under there. Bonus is that it was super filling though, and he seemed to enjoy it! Our server was really nice and his timing was perfect with the soup & salad and then our entrees. CPK is definitely a solid choice if you're looking for a family-friendly, quick sit-down place at Tysons. read more

Whatever haters, I like CAPK. Yeah it's a chain, my experience here has been good (all two visits I had) My most recent visit I got a red sangria, which came in a nice big glass with fresh fruit. I got the thin crust jerk chicken pizza and it was soooo yummy. I loved the sweet and spicy sauce they used. I like. I'll be back. :) read more

Well....I was super excited to eat here only to be let down. Although my food was good, I had to have it remade due to a hair being in my salad. So I switched my order & asked that they leave off the salad (I wasnt going thru that again). The second time around I simply got a pepperoni pizza. It was very yummy! Not to my surprise, my food was comp'd. They get a gold star for that. Most places will give you a percentage off & keep it moving. Lastly, after Im done eating I glance into the kitchen (im sitting at the bar) and the see pizza maker typing on his cell phone with his bare hands and then return to making pizzas with those same bare hands!! It was DISGUSTED!!!! Almost lost my lunch. Food preparer's should really be more careful of their bad habits especially when they work in an open kitchen. read more

One of my favorite places for food usually..! I went to this particular CPK with mom.. tired form shopping at Tysons! :p We ordered Asparagus soup (tolerable) and the Minestrone Soup (INEDIBLE)...!! We sent it back unfortunately. But our Vegetarian Pizza with Japanese Eggplant was just out of this world..! We loved it.. we ordered it thin crust, and it was crispy and just perfectly done! The four stars are just for the yummy pizza and our super sweet server.. it even made up for the horrible soup! And of course my previous CPK experiences! Not a bad place for lunch when you are done shopping! :p :p read more

Not generally a fan of thin crust pizza but I do love a pesto...so I tried their new Pesto Chicken thin crust pizza and the Tomato Basil Spaghettini. Both tasted good, but can't say I'm a fan yet. read more

I am a fan of CPK and love their pizzas and ice teas! my all time favorites are - Pesto Chicken pizza Chipotle chicken pizza Margherita pizza Appetizers - Avocado Club Egg Rolls Not a big fan of their guacamole that we tried on my most recent visit. Good place to go when @ Tysons Mall! read more

Friday Fourth of July. Me and my brother stop here to use the $1,000 prize to win and didn't. We just got the 10% off the meal. So I order the fish taco and my brother order the Avocado Club Egg Rolls. This how we roll! Your favorite ingredients of chicken club sandwich, like Nueske's applewood smoked bacon and meld Monterey Jack, wrapped in a crispy wonton. Served with house made ranch to sauce and herb ranch. I Panko-crushed Mahi, Mahi, shredded cabbage and house made ranchi to suce and order the Avocado with it. and melted cheese over the chips. The service was great. food was good. I found that the Pentagon City is under new management. And looking forward for the great service I had like this location. I try my brother Avocado Club Egg Rolls and looking forward in ordering it my self. But I enjoy the fish taco a lot. read more

It's been a long time since I had CPK! I had low expectations because it was a Sunday night & super crowded at the mall so I figured they were probably more concerned about getting people in and out. The food was a bit slow coming out but 100% worth the wait. I don't know if they recently added more items to the menu because I don't remember many items besides pizzas & flatbread... but I was super impressed. They also gave us a few pieces of bread with a side of olive oil to dip in! Bill was about $63 with no tip, will definitely come back again. read more

House salad, Cajun shrimp pasta, personal pizza, tea... all terrific! As I was never a fan to even try CPK, my wife convinced me a few years ago to try them out. OK, she was right! Every time we've visited I've been amazed at how delicious everything I've tried from their menu has been... and consistent too! We've been to a few in the area, but seem to prefer this one at Tysons for some reason I can't put my finger on. The only time you may be slightly perturbed in going there is when they're really busy for lunch or dinner. But if you're willing to wait with some time to kill and resting after walking around shopping building up a hunger, this is one of the better eateries in the Mall. Have at it and enjoy. read more

Underwhelming. Not recommended. This place is popular in the DC Metro area and for the life of us, we cannot understand why. We lived in this area for decades and were underwhelmed in the past with our eating experiences here. A revisit to this particular shop during December 2015 revalidated our previous perceptions: average at best, to somewhat poor quality entrees. Lackluster is a term that comes to mind to characterize our eating experiences here. We visited at the insistence of a family member. We won't do it again. read more

I like CPK's food in general. They are all unique and prepared very well. The drinks are awesome as well. They are just a little over priced. read more

Big shout out to my peeps at California Pizza Kitchen! I believe you have created the healthiest pizza yet! You have my awe and respect. It was so fresh, the veggies were unique, and so generously topped. I feel light eating this pizza. A pizza that actually improves one's health! The California Veggie. It was absolutely delicious. This was a nongreasy pizza with a light and healthy tasting crust. I will be ordering this again soon. Thank you so much for putting love into your wonderful food. Highly recommend this pizza to indecisive yet feverishly hungry individuals. read more

California Pizza Kitchen - Pizza...... - Pizza Near Me - Tysons, Virginia

I'm a fan of this casual quick-turn table service mall eatery! Past the crowded counters of cheap, greasy, calorie-laden fast food eats in the Tyson's I lower food court corridor, this bastion of rustic comfort is located right by the entrance/exit doors. There's a convenient place for strollers outside the doors and plenty on booths and distressed wood table seating inside. I don't mind grabbing food on the run and don't even mind plastic or styrofoam containers but I really prefer to dine with stainless utensils instead of plastic ones. It just makes the food taste better imho. The pizzas, salads and pastas are quite nice and there is a M-F lunch duo for $9! But when the cold winds blow and my nose and toes are frozen, nothing warms my soul like a bowl of piping hot soup--like the rich and flavorful Sedona Tortilla offered by California Pizza Kitchen. With a lovely vine-ripened Roma tomato base and just the right amount of chicken, corn and pepper, this soup hits the spot and chases away the chill. Add an affordable glass of wine and I'm ready to be patient enough for standing in line amid the winter mall crowds before I head back out into the Arctic Tundra that used to be the Lord and Taylor parking lot. read more

While it's at the downstairs food court of Tyson's Mall it has its own enclosed facility that allows you to be contained away from the general food court background noise and hecticness. They have a lot of seating with significant variety in the seating even with a relatively small space. Their menu was varied and excellent and their service always has been quick and efficient, not to mention the food has been good in quality and portions. read more

Very good place with friendly staff and great services; great job, Amil!! Went there for their lunch special (pizza) and was not disappointed at all, although the soufflé didn't quite measure up to the one I had elsewhere; Roy's in Hawaii Kai is still ranked at top. Will definitely go back there again without hesitation. read more

This restaurant has survived the test of time while being in tysons which is a big deal. . People still love pizza and this place was king of "fresh" pizza 15 years ago Solid food and decent service as best but this place is still a safe bet for a decent price. Not much to write about except its a corporate restaurant that has been in Tysons for over 15 years which is a big deal. Far from delicious, far from terrible just in between. The restaurant needs a remodel and a reboot. read more

The service was pretty fast in terms of getting us a table and the food to our table, but that turned out to be a double-edged sword. Literally the exact moment I picked the last slice off the pan, the waitress swooped in and took the pans away. I wasn't even done eating when she plopped the check down. The pizza itself was good at least; I'd still come back. read more

This has GENUINELY been the best service that I have ever received at a restaurant. Ryan was our server and he was the sweetest! He came to our table several times to check up on us and made sure we likes the food. On top of that, both he and the manager noted my allergy and made sure to cook my food separately, and the manager came to me personally to assure me there was no cross contamination. Along with the amazing service, the food was delicious. It was very clearly cooked with care. I will most certainly be back again! :) read more

I don't have any complaints about this place, but it's also not amazing or super memorable. It's just a place to go for decent food and the location is convenient if you're already at the mall anyway. I got the California Club because I don't often see pizzas that have a lot of leafy greens AND bacon AND avocado (unless you make it yourself). I also got it on wheat crust because I'm pretending to be healthy at a pizza place. When the pizza came out it basically looked like a pizza with salad dumped on top. I picked off some of the greens with a fork before I ate the pizza because otherwise everything would just fall off as soon as I picked up a slice. The wheat crust was good considering it was wheat, and I could've eaten half of the pizza and been full. But someone challenged me to finish the whole thing so obviously I did. Oh you also got bread and oil before your meal, so that's a plus. The service was good and again, no complaints. This is an ok place, and on the bright side there's a new Kung Fu Tea at the mall so you can go there after your meal. ^-^ If I ever come here again I will get the jambalaya fettuccini and update this review. read more

Very disappointing, after being seated at our table, it took 15 mins for a waitress to take our order ( that is if I hadn't called a staff member's attention that no one has taken our order or even asked us for drinks) Being hungry, we gave all our orders to our server to save her time from coming back again to take our entree orders. It took another 20-25 mins for our food to arrive. On the upside, the food is excellent (rib eye and spaghetti bolognese). I would like to give this place another chance because I keep convincing myself that " maybe they're just short - staffed" while seeing the growing irritation on my husband's face due to the poor service. read more

My friend and I came her to get dinner and get asked to prom:) The atmosphere was casual and inviting, and the service was phenomenal. I ordered the roasted garlic pizza with the cauliflower crust and it was amazing. The crust tasted so good and the caramelized onions and garlic paired perfectly. The Vice President of the company also happened to be stopping by, so we got to try a bunch of items on the menu and he even paid for our dinner! The red velvet cake my date asked me with was also super good. I would definitely come back again! read more

Haven't visited CPK in many years but after 6 hours is shopping we decided to stop in. I originally ordered the baked potato soup but didn't like it at all. Was very thick...like mashed potatoes so I asked for the tomato basil soup and it was delish. For my meal I had the shrimp, white pizza (I don't think that is the exact name). Definitely recommend....not very cheesy but food flavor. My daughter enjoyed her club sandwich as well. Service was fast and our sever was very attentive. All and all good experience! read more

The pizza is average, for all the types of pizza is mostly taste of bread and lots of cheese. They give bread before the pizza. And honestly It might have been better than the pizza. Also the pizza is very greasy and will leave your hands greasy. The pizza is ok. I'd prefer a dominions at home with a movie. And also you can't order the pizza in slices which kind of suck. Only a group of 6. I kind of recommend this place if your craving pizza, just don't recommend the normal pepperoni pizza. The service is nice, she checked up nice. Filled out drinks, and the place was very clean. read more

I went here on Sunday and it was my second time coming here but it was my first time getting a pizza at a restaurant. I never get pizza when I'm out. BUT I had the Shrimp Scampi pizza. Holy Moly!!!! It was so so delicious!! I totally recommend! Especially for those who like spicy pizza, it had red pepper flakes. My friend got the Thai Chicken pizza. And that was good as well. However, our server was okay. He forgot to give us bread, and he didn't ask/ check up on us if our food was good. But he did refill our drinks. read more

This is one of our "go to" places at Tyson's Mall with our daughter. The service is good - friendly and good with kids. Also they tend to be quick with refills and checking in with you. They are also great about getting the food the way you want it. For the food, the pizzas are great. And they have added a nice healthy menu. read more

Terrible customer service. I attempted to place a Carryout order during a period when the restaurant was not busy. As I stood at the "Takeout" sign clearly visible to the "hostess" and other wait staff, no one acknowledged I was standing there. The hostess and waitstaff kept telling each other someone needs to take the order, yet none of them ever made an attempt to do so even though there were no other customers in need of service. The person making the pizza kept telling them someone is waiting to place an order, yet the waitstaff and hostess continued the not me game. Disgusted I left and will no longer patronize this location. read more

I just spent $110.00 on take out for me and my family. This is how I received my $14.00 cheese pizza. The order was placed to go. The pizzas were placed in the bag by the attendant. I hope this brings more awareness to the store manager that the quality of the food has gone down and needs more attention. read more

The Chipotle Chicken Pizza here is my all-time fave, I'd totally go for it any day! :-) The quasadilla is amazing too! The traditional cheese is okay, nothing special though... BUT... I took 2 stars off because of the awful service. Literally every time I'm here, they never refill my soda, and even worse... once it took the waiter over 20 minutes to even ask for my order! Thats a first! read more

my pizza smelled like farts.... literally smelled like farts and it made me sad:( worst pizza i ever had

The pizza was good. I just needed a little more side sauce with the Carne asada pizza the goat cheese was a nice touch to it. I recommend this pizza. I also recommend that the bread should be a bit more crisp for the added crunch. read more

I had them delivery food today. Their quality of food gets zero fro me. Very disappointed! Do not recommend it during pendentives!

I usually stop by this CPK when I visit this mall to either wait for my hair appointment or wait for my boyfriend to get his hair cut (otherwise I will buy something I don't need). I don't usually frequent chain restaurants, however it's unavoidable in Tysons and I consider CPK one of the better ones. All the restaurants are very consistent across the board. Service is always fast and friendly and the food and drink are delicious. My personal favorites are the Avocado club egg rolls and the Orchard Sangria. They also have amazing salads that even my BF will eat. This is definitely a great place to stop by to eat if you want a good alternative to typical mall fare. read more

Family dinner for 4 about $64 only feeds two at the very most. The food is only okay not worth it!

I would not give this CPK a star if I could, I have gone to many different CPKs with phenomenal service and excellent food. My family and I dined in this restaurant on a Friday night around 6pm, the restaurant was not busy for the time on a weekend. But this location in McLean was greatly disappointing. The waitress hardly served my table and when she did she was barely talking to us or cared about the food allergies we had. Other waiters were standing near by in a large group congregating having their own conversations and not serving other tables. By the time my family had received out orders we still had not gotten the courtesy bread when we asked three times for it, patiently waiting. As we finished our meal we asked again and another waitress was very reluctant in doing so. The original waitress never checked up on our meals or if we needed a drink refill. From previous comments and reviews about this location, other yelpers are correct about this restaurant. New management is needed followed by training for the entire staff. We are usually large tippers in this case we hardly left a dime. It's too bad about this location, Tyson's Corner is a higher end luxury mall with a mediocre CPK. Highly do not recommend. read more

I'm not sure what the standard for customer service is at this location (I've never actually ate here i am picking up an order) but the girl behind the bar on 7/26 (evening hours) genuinely needs an attitude adjustment. I understand food running behind on a busy evening but I cannot wrap my head around someone who just has a pure attitude and looking like they hate their job so they will be rude to people. Maybe management should stick her in the back with some customer training guidelines..... I wrote this as I was waiting and she threw the bag on the counter and gave me a dirty ass look!! read more

Great place for a quick bite. My girlfriend and I stopped by after shopping. As we walked in, we were welcomed and were seated immediately. Our server was very friendly and we had a great conversation with her. They served us the complimentary bread & dipping oil. Our food came in quickly as well. It was hot and fresh. We ordered BBQ Chicken Pizza & Sedona Tortilla Soup. Both were delicious. The soup bowl was big enough to feel full. We enjoyed the food, the service, and the overall atmosphere. I highly recommend this place even for a casual family dine outs. read more
