California Pizza Kitchen

[laurajetter]

There is a California Pizza Kitchen that just came to our area; are they pretty good? Any menu recommendations? The description I read (from the shopping center's website) sounds yummy:

CPK provides a range of creative dishes, from signature California-style, hearth-baked pizzas to innovative salads, pastas, soups and sandwiches. Offering Dine-In, Take-Out and an award-winning CPKids Menu.

I love their original chop salad and their spinach artichoke dip. Their pizza's are also YUMMY!

There is some sort of Mexican type pizza I get there. Can't think of the exact name of it. I like it I think it is sort of spendy there tho, for what you get.

Always a popular choice when our office chooses to order out. I've never had the chopped salad, but that seems to be a real favorite. The pizza is pretty good too.

OMG I love them. I was sooo happy to move to Houston so that I would have one! I actually at one point in college asked my roommate to bring one back on the plane from Cali for me.

I love the BBQ Chicken and the Pear & Gorgonzola pizzas. They have unique yet very good pizzas. Word of warning though the duck pizza is not that good.

LOL! We are actually thinking of checking it (if I'm thinking of the same new California Pizza location) out tonight (providing the line isn't too long). If we go, I'll let you know.

I went for the first time about 16 years ago when a girlfriend of mine DRAGGED me there after I got a big bonus from my job. I couldn't BELIEVE California knew anything about PIZZA.... (sorry, NYer tawkin'...)

Well, I was amazed!! LOVE that BBQ chicken pizza and the shrimp pizza... yum yum.

Went to Atlantic Station to take my son there last weekend but it was jammed. Now I HAVE to go back this weekend!

Love the bbq chicken chop salad and the bbq chicken pizza!

The salads are HUGE. Dh and I usually get a 1 lunch sized salad and 1 pizza and share them between the 2 of us.

I also love the bbq chicken pizza. If you have kids don't forget to register them for the kids club. Online go to cpk.com then go under kids menu to find it. You get a free kids meal including dessert/drink for their birthday

Believe it or not, I rarely get pizza when I go CPK-----although if I do, I love the Pear and Gorgonzola. Wonderful combination.

But, and this is my favorite----if you like split pea soup---theirs is amazing!!!! It is the pea and barley soup (and it's vegetarian)----so good on a cold winter's day.

Also, if you like a cold appetizer----the shrimp spring rolls are really good as well.


I think they were one of the originators of the BBQ chicken pizza and their salads are yummy.

Enjoy your new CPK!!!!!

I love California Pizza Kitchen! My favorite pizzas are the California Club and the Pear and Gorgonzola. But pretty much everything I've tried has been delicious.

When I go with my family, we usually get several different pizzas and share them.

ahhh....the original chop salad! wonderful!

DH loves their BLT pizza. It's a bacon & tomato pizza - then they add the shredded mayo'd lettuce after it's out of the oven. (not my thing - but he loves it!)

There's a CPK Express at our mall. We'll each get a salad and then split a personal pepperoni & mushroom pizza - just enough for lunch!
