California Pizza Kitchen

After reviews on this app and speaking to staff for ourselves, we decided to give CPK a try. Ordered the Gluten-free BBQ Chicken pizza and were very pleased that our Nima tester gave us a smile. They have a separate prep area and we felt confident in their knowledge of cross-contamination. Alex (their trainer) and Sam (manager) were absolutely amazing in both explaining their procedures and overseeing our pizza prep. Ate there a 2nd time. Nima tested gluten. We had added pineapple and think that could have been the cause. Sam was appalled and bent over backwards to reassure and personally take care of the 2nd pizza (we opted for no pineapple that time). That one tested safe. Nice to share this app with Sam. I feel like she truly cared about Celiac safety.

Can't complain! Pizza was quite delicious and I didn't get sick. Service was decent. They're part of the gluten free certification program which is cool.

Nice pizza. Friendly people, there is a (little) dedicated glutenfree menu.

The pizza came with a nice glutenfree decorative banner

The guy made sure the kitchen knew about my celiac. The service itself was mediocre.

It’s a beautiful location, with a nice ambience. The staff was very helpful with their dedicated gluten-free menu. They were very specific about what we could substitute and what we could night. We had the pepperoni mushroom sausage pizza. We also had a Waldorf salad. Both were delicious!

Staff was very friendly and extremely knowledgeable! They have a separate prep area where they make the GF pizzas. I had their “Mushroom/Pepperoni/Sausage” pizza, and they were accommodating enough to swap the mushrooms for GF Bacon... other toppings can be added however are not kept in the GF area so there is risk of CC. The pizza’s are about 9 inches.

We've eaten at other restaurants from this chain and the wait staff has always been really good. Tonight we asked out waitress about the certified gluten free pizza and she was very snooty telling us that we only had 4 to choose from and nothing else- which was fine. Then she brought bread and oil and a salad full of croutons 😣 Luckily, the pizza was prepared with the care it required. So service was disappointing but pizza was great. Just gotta be on your toes.

As most have said, limited menu but food was good. I had the BBQ chicken pizza and it was delicious! The service was great as well!

As others have said, gluten free menu is very limited with other 4 pizzas. There are a few gluten free options on the main menu also. Had the pepperoni sausage pizza which was excellent. Lovely location also with outdoor seating. Would recommend a visit.

Great lunch, limited GF choice with 4 pizzas but my daughter said her pizza was 10/10 on taste. The service was impeccable the assistant manager was so welcoming. They brought a separate plate of chips and dip for my daughter unprompted. Very aware and will definitely return to this one or another in the chain.

nice restaurant in the park area. had a salad and pizza and didn't get sick.

This is not the best pizza crust, being a bit soggy, but it’s fairly good for gluten free. It allows me to scratch the pizza itch without getting sick. There are exactly 5 items (all pizza) certified by the gluten intolerance group. There are other items on the menu without gluten containing ingredients, but cross contamination is an issue, so I’ve never tried them.

I used to LOVE this restaurant: pizza, pasta, salads, egg rolls, soup...all delicious!

Not sure why so many people are saying they have a separate GF menu. When we went last weekend and asked for one they didn’t have one. The GF options were listed on the menu and those options were honestly lacking. There are only 5 pizza options that you can order that are GF; ONLY 5!!!!! These are NOT fresh pizzas, if they where they could easily make any pizza option a GF one. I ordered the GF Margarita Pizza, and honestly it lacked flavor, the crust was a bit burned, and it overall didn’t look like a fresh Margarita Pizza.

I went to give them a chance and I did that a chance, as in one singular time because I will not be going back. As expensive as GF items are, I will invest my money elsewhere.

I have gluten and dairy allergies. There were no options. The only gluten free items available are 4 pizzas: the original BBQ Chicken, Three Cheese, Pepperoni, or Margheria. The gluten free crust has dairy in it so nothing was safe.
