California Pizza Kitchen

California Pizza Kitchen Restaurant Review:

When it comes to pizza chains, CPK is a solid contender. The list of two dozen-plus crispy-thin pizzas includes all the standards, but there are also inventive versions such as roasted artichoke and spinach and carne asada. Our favorite is the barbecued chicken, the most popular of the pizzas. You can design your own as well. If you can tear yourself away from the pies, try one of the pastas, such as the spaghetti bolognese. Salad portions are large so keep in mind that half-orders are available. Soups, appetizers, sandwiches made with good hearth-baked focaccia and filling desserts round out the menu.
