Everyone was welcoming! Our server was so nice! You can tell everyone love their job by the way they treat their customers! I got the club pizza– sooo delicious! Has generous toppings, the avocado was fresh, the crust was phenomenal! My husband got the chipotle and it was super delicious, too! My daughter don’t really eat pizza [ she’s 4 ] we ask them if she could have a bowl of black olives, and they did. That was super nice! The bathroom was clean, the restaurant is clean, the ambience is great! Can’t wait to go back!

It was my first pizza in America. It was not bad, and actually I enjoyed it but I do not know why it costs so expensive with that amount of ingredients. But this is actually same in every restaurant in America.

The best pasta I have ever had. Flavor melts in your mouth and its super good. Their complementary breads are super soft and yummy. Also I tried their Vegetarian pizza super filling for one person. Must try their cauliflower appetizers, they were so delicious. Beehive drink was soooo good if like your drink sweet.

The food way very good. I enjoyed the food and the drink. I’m only giving 3 stars because we ended up waiting a long time for our server each time we needed something which was kind of upsetting. However this with the fact that it was overall 60 dollars for my boyfriend and myself for potions that were a little on the small side kind of irritated me. I did enjoy the food but I will probably not go back due to the service and the prices here.

We really miss having a CPK in our home town. This location is very nice and in the shopping mall parking lot. There were hardly any customers when we went on a Monday night. So sad that they got rid of their ranch salad with crispy onion strings a few years ago. We had a BBQ chicken pizza and a salad. Both were good but nothing too exciting. The service was cordial but really slow for having so few customers. It was good to reminisce of when we had a CPK a couple miles away.

Reliably good pizza and fast service. This one is conveniently located just about next to a Whole Foods; so it’s a good food and resupply location for local travelers. They have good small pizzas for kids. There’s a large parking lot to rest and recharge yourself before getting back on the road.

Food was good. The hamburger and fries could have been warmer. My wifes dish was not as warm as it should have been either. It wasn’t that busy at the time we were there, so I am assuming they sat for a bit before being brought to our table. Prices are a bit high, but that seems to be the case everywhere lately. I have had a better experience at other CPK’s than this one. Been awhile since I have been to the one at Del Monte shopping center. And it will probably be awhile before I go back.

It’s not the same experience I’ve had before. My salad had brown, slimy lettuce in it. It also took too long for our server to visit our table throughout our meal. I’m not sure if she was just stretched too thin with her other tables or not, but our whole experience wasn’t as good as it has been in the past at this CPK. I’m hoping it was just an off day for them.

To tell you the truth, I expected better pizza than what I ordered. I ordered the carne asada pizza which I thought was gonna be great, nothing special. Also ordered a combination pizza, both pizza’s were just mediocre. I’ve had lesser pizza which tastes great. Bathrooms were dirty and not kept up at all. The only positive I have was our waiter which he did a phenomenal job attending to our large group. Had a blue moon beer which tasted flat. Had a modelo beer, it was off aswell in taste. I personally will not return to this restaurant or resturant chain.
