California Pizza Kitchen

First time trying CPK here at Gardenwalk. There were plenty of tables when we went for lunch. They could not rearrange the table to accommodate our party size, but they were kind enough to seat us close together. The waitress that was assigned to us were very nice to begin with but then as the food came out and was serving us, she kind of just dumped the food on our tables. Her words were nice but her actions got me questioning if she was okay. No biggie I guess since none of the food actually splatter just loud noises as the food were being dropped off at our table. Sorry if you had a bad day!The pizza had a bit of a kick of spicy-ness to it, the tortilla chips that came with the dips were delicious, just like the spinach and artichoke dip that it came with. The bread is also good. When does carbohydrate not taste good? And the Mocktail was refreshing! Other than that, the service was pretty good. They promptly took our order, we waited for a little bit for the food, but then when the food came out, they all came out all at once and our party got to enjoy lunch together. The waitress even checked in on us a couple times to make sure we had everything. We were seated outside and it was such a nice day, I think everyone in our party had a good time.

I have been a customer of California Pizza kitchen for many years. The ones I usually patronize are located in Palo Alto/Stanford . So, I figured this location would be similar. I was wrong...Prices are similar as well as quality of food. But, the SERVICE was totally different and disappointing. When entering we not greeted and had to look for a server to be seated. Next, the server reminded me of a used car salesperson. She would zip by with a smile and then go to a table where other workers were have an impromptu meeting. Spending more time there talking than attending to the customers. Food took way too long to come out of the kitchen and when she delivered them, she didn't apologize for the longer than normal wait. She did apologize for the usual complementary bread not being available !? There were few customers to cook for and serve so there is no excuse for her lack of service. Ambiance is no different than any other Californian Pizza Kitchen.

Waited forever to be seated in an empty restaurant.They've got this stupid rule that everyone from the party must be there before they can seat us. The majority of the party was there, and we still had to wait once they arrived an additional 15 minutes till someone sat us. Food wasn't good nor bad, nothing special but definitely overpriced.Our server was the only good thing about the experience.

Absolutely loved it here! Our server Shirley was amazing!!! She went above and beyond, highly recommend her. Great recommendations. BEST SERVICE i've had in awhile! The food was incredible, highly recommended it especially the spinach dip and caesar salad. Will be coming back when in town.

Stopped by here for dinner before a concert with my family and it was alright. Haven't been to CPK in years but was excited because they brought the tostada pizza back which is mine and my mom's fav and the main reason we went when I was a kid. We all got happy hour cocktails, they were sadly out of one of the mixes. We shared a Cobb salad and tostada pizza, and the rest of the table for the burrata pizza with a bbq salad. I enjoyed my food the most but they all said everything was weirdly salty to them. Both pizzas apparently had an overly salty taste so we ended up not taking any leftovers home. The drinks were decent for the happy hour price but nothing incredible. Overall it's a great family friendly place with good food!

CPK is located within the Anaheim garden walk Plaza. Make sure to bring your parking ticket for an hour validation. It has been awhile since I last dined in this specific location. A lot of times, I order for delivery here on most of my company lunch meetings. My overall experience today was just mediocre and disappointing. We had a 4pm reservation for a party of 10. We were 15 mins early and we're told we will get seated once everybody is here so we hungout at the bar. One of the server though informed my two other co-workers that there's no happy hour, to which, I was about to say something. However, this server might just have a dry sens of humor. Anyways, when we all got seated, our server looked tired but put his best effort taking our orders. He grabbed our drink orders first then our entrée. I usually order my usual order: CHICKEN TEQUILA FETUCCINI I specifically asked to substitute fettuccine with Linguini but to my dismay, my pasta came with Fetuccini and not as flavorful as I recall how this dish tasted. My pasta was bland, I can count how many chicken was in my dish, a lot of bell pepper and onions, and lots of pasta. I was disappointed. MEXICAN STREET CORN: it was mushy and it has a kicked of spiceness. It comes with 2 slices of toasted baguetteTOSTADA PIZZA:MediocreCHICKEN DUMPLING :Just alright. It is a bit spicy (sauce)CAESAR SALAD:BBQ PIZZA:It was just alright They Happy Hour between 3pm-6pm. 1/2 off on all drinks and starters.

Good pizza and great vibes! When I first arrived, the place was a little quiet, but that didn't take away from the overall experience. The relaxed atmosphere actually made it feel like a nice spot to unwind for a bit. The staff was super friendly and welcoming, with a great attitude when it came to explaining the menu options. They really knew their stuff and were more than happy to offer suggestions.While I wouldn't say it's the best pizza I've ever had, it definitely hit the spot for a quick lunch. The crust had a nice balance of crunch and chew, and the sauce had just the right amount of tang to complement the toppings. What really stood out to me, though, was the ability to fully customize your pizza. From choosing your preferred crust type to loading it with all your favorite toppings, you can build the perfect pizza to match your cravings. It's rare to find places that offer that level of flexibility, so I really appreciated that.If you're looking for a place where you can get a decent meal without spending too much, this is definitely worth considering. It's a great option for anyone looking for a casual, no-fuss lunch that still satisfies. Whether you're in the mood for something classic or want to try out some fun topping combinations, this place has you covered. Overall, I'd recommend it as a convenient spot to grab a bite, especially if you're in the area and want something quick, tasty, and affordable.

if things don't work out we can always count on one of our favorite. CPK!i can say that we've been to many CPK establishments and they all pretty much meet the expectations. we arrived at this location and it was busy. given the area we could see why. its surrounded by an outdoor shopping garden. we sit at the bar as per usual. the bartender/ server was busy that night. they were short staffed. Sarah kindly let us know. due to the fact that they were busy our food did take about 45-1 hours to get to us. but it was no big deal. as always our food was delicious. sometimes it varies but for the most part its pretty consistent. Parking is accessible and available for a hourly rate. you can have your ticket validate and get a discount on the rate.

Ordered via door dash. Delivered very quickly - almost too quickly for pizza (see my theory below.) Two pizzas. Burnt Ends; Tortilla. Both were ice cold. Tortilla pizza was so cold that the cheese had congealed; looked like a recently defrosted pizza from a grocery brand (note that CPK does make these too...). Missing sauce and all of the veggies; found the veggies an hour later in a bag with our dessert. Sauce wasn't with the order. Apparently this was a "deconstructed" pizza. Oh. No chicken (an add on charge) and no tortilla strips. That's right: a tortilla pizza with no.. tortilla.BBQ pizza had virtually no sauce, only two pieces of meat per slice Pickled red onions simply thrown on top. Didn't taste good; was like cold bread with leftover burnt ends, and the burnt ends were... not much to speak about .I have two potential theories about what happened here. The first is that these were frozen pizzas thawed but not warmed any further. That would explain the lack of veg and sauce.The other is based upon my experience with restaurants, and friends who are chefs. If someone orders a meal and they do not pick it up, it's still perfectly fine to serve it to another customer: no health issue. Is it possible this was somebody eise's (oddly specific, down to my request for no cheese and cilantro) order passed on to us. If so, why the hell was it ice cold?No idea. Not a good experience by any means. Had a similar experience during lockdown and had given it a miss for three years. Probably the last time for us.Wife reports her pizza is inedible, and has asked me to attach this photo below,

Shirley was absolutely amazing. I had to order take while my daughter and granddaughters were waiting in the car. She processed my order quickly. Excellent customer service!!!!
