I was craving CPK for awhile. Saturday night date – guests were finishing up their food as the restaurant was about to close within the hour. Bummer as they were (86) out of egg rolls… so the second option was spinach artichoke dip. As for the service: my date and I had to remind our server for items we requested on multiple occasions and never asked for refills. I wanted to order dessert to go, but our server asked us if we wanted our check due to the restaurant being closed. The food saved the night: hot spinach dip with crispy chips, fresh out of the oven pizzas.

This was an AMAZING experience. I started off drinking a mock tail called the pacific thyme and it was so good and I would go back for it again. Then my group and I shared two pizzas one margarita and the other was a bbq chicken pizza. The cheese pull was magnificent and tasty! Everything about this trip to California pizza kitchen was amazing. Most definitely coming back to this location!

First time at this location. The food and service was below par. We get Saturday night is BUSY. Hostesses were trying their best to accommodate everyone. We were told 15-20min wait for a party of 7. A party if 6 came in way after us and were seated right away. We waited a total of an hour. We were told a bar high table was being cleared. But then they informed us because we had two kids they couldn’t sit us at the bar high table. Our kids are teens. Finally one of them sat us down. We got no utensils. When we told the manager, he asked one of the hostess to get us some utensils. Being petty, She brought us 4 utensils. What was suppose to be a nice birthday dinner turned into a “we should have stayed home”. Eggs rolls were soggy, salad had a bunch of old pieces, pizzas were ok.

Great pizza and sangria. The service was also top notch. Chose this as it was close to our hotel – Courtyard Marriott in Gaithersburg, MA. Love that there is so much in walking distance.

The California Veggie Pizza had meat in it, we sent it back & they remade the same pizza only to contain bacon bits in it… we were appalled! The Manager stopped-by our table, offered to take the pizza cost off our bill & sweeten the experience with a free dessert.

Went there a couple times for lunch. First time, I sat inside. Upon entering, the floors were so dirty. It looked like someone had had a food fight or something and trash was all over the floor. I was sat on the other side of the restaurant, so I didn’t really have a complaint, but I did notice the booth I was sat at had some food remnants on the seat. The food was fine. Can’t really get soup and salad wrong.
