Short answers: Its true. Yes. And yes!
CPK is surely not to be mistaken for the finest of fine cuisine, but they do have good tasting food on their menu. Love their selection of salads and they do really interesting things with pizza. Naturally, because they are California Pizza Kitchen and I'm in California, it seems everywhere I've lived in Orange County and LA that there's been a CPK nearby. My friends and I loved having one in Westwood when we were at UCLA. |

We were just at CPK on Friday night. I like the selections of salads they have, and that you can get most of them in a half-order size. Many times, I eat an appetizer for dinner, and I find a good selection in that category too. Of course, the best part, is that there's such a huge variety of pizzas, for when that hankering hits!  |

| There's a California Pizza Kitchen here in Hong Kong too. I haven't tried it yet but it's on my list of things to do. I love pizza! |

I love their Jumbalaya dish. So good. I don't like their pizzas that much. Too fancy for me, but also I am not a big fan of pizzas. Although there's an Italian restaurant in Old Town Pasadena called The Kitchen that serves the best deep dish Chicago style pizza ever.   |

| I've been there twice; I liked the thai chicken pizza and loved the pear and gorgonzola pizza, it comes with a salad on top.....a little different, but you get two things and it's really good if you like stinky cheese. =) |

I've tried it, the one in Gala in MK. It's ok, the pizza's are pretty good and unique but didn't give me a big wow factor. I like their crusts though, not too thin and not too thick. Their pizzas are better than their pasta though, all in all I'd probably go there again. However I'd question authentic the one in HK is since most restaurants, whatever cuisine they serve, tend to tweak their recipes to make it more suited to HK people's tastes. |

| I've only been there once... I quite like the pizza there, we don't get really good pizza over here so CPK is one of the better ones around. |

They have good salads. We have a CPK Express in our mall. They have good sandwiches. |

| It's definitely good and one of the places my sister-in-law makes a beeline for when she visits me. She was so skeptical the first time I ordered her the BLT pizza. Now it's her favorite pizza. |

You can find some of their recipes on copykat.com- they have quite a few chain restaurant recipes on that site.

I like the one at Water Tower....the service is really good and it's never been that crowded when I've gone, it's kind of tucked away at the end....by Lord and Taylor, I think. |
