    This place has the best happy hour special in Otay ranch!! Personal pizza & pint of beer for $6, 1/2 off appetizers and drinks. I usually order the margarita, which never disappoints. All servers have been great, but Leslie is our favorite.

    We went to California Pizza kitchen for my mother's birthday, party of four. Me and my wife had ceaser salad to start fresh crispy greens and croutons. Dressing was on point. My main was the chicken tequila pasta.also very flavorful. I personally like my CTP. with a more creamy sauce. Wife enjoyed the potsticker appetizer for main , I stole most of them and yeah tasty

    Fernando and his moustache were amazing. He was very nice, did a great job at explaining the menu, and was great with the children. I'd come back just for him, tbh. The food was great, they gave the children a birthday dessert, and everyone has a good time. 10/10!

    Ask for a Bbq chicken pizza with NO onions. Well I received one with a full dose of juicy onions. Then the dude kind of tripped out when I told him. No big deal. I ended up getting a ham and pineapple which was very dry. The kids pizza looked like a piece of cardboard with a splash of sauce. No Parmesan cheese or crushed red peppers any where in sight. This place could use new lighting maybe some color anywhere! The music was great. I recommend going to another pizza place. I still have a 20% tip regardless.

    This place is my goto spot for pizza. The way they make pizza is so delicious. The atmosphere is on point. The surrounding area is also beautiful and has alot of other shopping areas and restaurants. It's a little bit on the expensive side but, it's worth it if you have the extra coin. I would definitely recommend coming here.

    Love that the pizzas have cauliflower crust options and we could substitute the meat on the salads with avocados. Highly recommend! The server was also very helpful and nice. She was super patient with our large party and plenty kids. Their kids pastas are also surprisingly really tasty. I think I'll have to borrow my nephews to come with me every now and then 🤣

    I love their barbecue cauliflower wings, they are a bit spicy so just know they have a kick and some kids may not like that. I literally orders just a tomato soup, it came in a fancy HUGE bowl/plate, but I was a bit disappointed on the amount that was served, the plate was bigger than the amount of soup. The spaghetti on the other hand for kids was plentiful, and i was able to share some with him. Either way i love their pasta, just add more soup please 😁

    We requested to be seated in a quiet section of the restaurant at our request. Probably a bad idea because the table service was mostly nonexistent the majority of our meal. When we went to pay for our food, we noticed we had been mischarged. Instead of charging for half salads, we were charged for whole. We ordered half. We wondered why they seemed larger than normal. As we left a manager asked how our meal was. I said the food was great, but the service could have been better, and that they got our order incorrect. She immediately asked to see our bill. I thought she would adjust to reflect what we'd ordered, but no, she went above and beyond and refunded the full price of both salads. I wasn't expecting that. So 4 stars, for good food, and a good customer service resolution. Updated to add: on multiple subsequent visits (including the last two consecutive visits), several pizzas that had to be customized for allergies were done so incorrectly and had to be remade, causing the people with allergies to wait for their food, eating after the rest of their party had finished, or having to take it to go. Disappointing.

    We were family of four. We went there on late Sunday evening. The waiter Fernandez was great. He was energetic and friendly (also very good at remembering our names). I ordered scicillian pizza 🍕with thin crust. Amazing! (Although it had sausage and salami - proven carcinogenic processed red meat).

    Luv the CPK lunch specials, soup & salad, all the CPK salads ,Sedona Tortilla Soup, Chicken Tequila Pasta, Garlic Cream Fettuccine, Five Cheese + Tomato Pizza, Wild Mushroom Pizza w/ Truffle Oil, & the Butter Cake... the oil herb dip is delish too w/ the sourdough bread 😋 don't forget he Take & Bake Pizza 🫶 Rodrigo is the best Server 🤩 always friendly & attentive!!!

    Wonderful place for a quick bite. Their fresh baked bread is perfectly crispy on the outside, and the warm inside springs back when you press your finger into it. The bread alone is reason enough to return.

    Very good food, excellent service. The Buffalo cauliflower is spot on. Plank Salmon and chicken piccata were delicious 😋

    I love CPK. This place was so-so. Staff was great but never checked on us. We had to get them when we wanted to cash out. We had the Sicilian pizza with the chicken dumplings and a few drinks. Pizza was a little burnt and you can tell whomever the pizza cutter was had no cares in the world. Drinks were very great though. They should make a happy hour.

  • 4/5 Niharika S. 11 months ago on Google • 20 reviews
    This was my first time here. We ordered half n half pizza, one was BBQ chicken, and the other half was thai chicken. We also ordered Mexican street corn. Both the dishes were really good.

    Inside smelled of sewage so tried to sit outside. Sat for 15-20 minutes without having a drink order or anything taken at 1:30 on a Saturday. Returned menu and silverware and said we’d eat somewhere else and hostess seemed unfazed/didn’t question why we’d leave. Won’t be returning

  • 5/5 Audriane F. 6 months ago on Google
    We aren't always seated right away, but we've never had a terrible experience here. Food is good. My favorite food in the world is their Chicken Picatta. I've had others. It's never quite as good as the way CPK does it. Last time we were there, a couple members ordered the new Crispy Chicken Sandwich....LOTS of Mayo. Beware. 😂 We'll be back.

  • 4/5 Crimson B. 7 months ago on Google
    The food here is great for the first time visiting for myself. Being Celiac/Gluten free I felt very comfortable eating here. They had a lot of options for me. My friend who was not eats here all the time and loves it here! The service was good at first but he seemed to get lost after we we got our meal. We were never got refills of our drinks and it was not busy. I am not fussy nor a picky Person. But he literally just never came back. When it was time for our check we had to find him. 😆 The atmosphere was nice, clean and bright and Not to loud. Really a 4.5. I will come back definitely and hope it was just a bad day for the server. 😊

  • 4/5 Vanessa P. 2 years ago on Google
    The pizza was super tasty. I had their original BBQ chicken pizza and it was honestly the best I've had. The only reason I'm knocking down a star was because of the long wait time on a rainy Monday night.

  • 3/5 Kel 9 months ago on Google
    Service was fine, food came a little slow which is whatever normally but also my father in law's pizza came with tomatoes and my burger with onions, despite waitress writing it on the ticket. Food taste was overall fine but just meh. Don't plan to go back again

  • 5/5 Mechelle C W. 1 year ago on Google
    All I can say is CPK came through for our party of like 10-12 when we went like a week and half ago. Our server Fernando was absolutely Amazing and he made our day even better due to the fact that Cheesecake Factory took forever to even get us in when our party was there. So CPK and Fernando a big pat on the back cuz you guys are Awesome and the food was fantastic. Definitely deserve a 5 Star and I'd give 10 if it was on here. Well done...See you soon...Fernando your Awesome man. Here's a photo of the happy group. My daughter was the one behind the lens...

    BLUF: Food was good, service was poor. 3 stars Was sadly disappointed with our recent experience at CPK. The place wasn't very busy but it took almost 30 min just to take our order and we didn't get our food until an hour after sitting down. I couldn't order the one thing I wanted off the menu because their delivery didn't come in with the ingredients so I had to choose something else. We all finished our drinks but didn't get offered refills until we finally asked for them and a drink I ordered didn't get delivered until after the food came and I asked for my drink.

  • 3/5 Yvonne L. 1 year ago on Google
    I ordered the ROASTED GARLIC CHICKEN pizza and the pizza and chicken was very dry. It was as if there was only enough cheese on the pizza to make the toppings stick to the crust.

  • 3/5 R I. 1 year ago on Google
    The waitstaff was great. The restaurant was nice. The only issue I had was my food order. I ordered the Kung Pao Spaghetti and I was very disappointed with the serving size. I was still hungry after my dinner. At $22.00 I was expecting a lot more. They serve it in an overly large plate to make it seem like you're getting a good portion but it really isn't that much.

  • 5/5 Raymond C. 1 year ago on Google
    Took advantage of the gift card promotion to buy several gift cards and also got a bonus gift basket. The gift basket included a bottle of scotch, a bottle of wine and a nice decanter! They said I got the last one, otherwise we'd be back tomorrow. Incredible deal, good food, and great service/management team - thank you Ramon, Marcus and Reuben! You made my day.

  • 1/5 Rachelle P. 1 year ago on Google
    I previously left an amazing review for this CPK location. However, my experience today was quite the opposite. My daughter and I went there for dinner. We were seated after about 20 minutes and told that a server would be with us. Mind you, the restaurant was not too busy at that time. A total of 15 minutes passed by before we were even acknowledged by a server. Another family was sat next to us, and within a minute was approached by a server to get their drink/appetizer orders. I’m not sure why this type of service was shown today, but I can’t understand why we sat waiting for 15 minutes while another party was addressed almost immediately.

  • 4/5 Michelle D. 1 year ago on Google
    Surprisingly not busy but thankful for that. Had a family of 8 and we were all able to order something we wanted. The staff were friendly, accommodating and professional. No complaints about the food in flavor or serving size. Definitely a favorite place to eat at for the family

  • 5/5 Hector G. 1 year ago on Google
    Everything was very good.. we had to wait for a table, not because the restaurant was full, but because they did not have the staff.. and i do appreciate this... with all the staff shortages, it is better to wait and be well taken care of than to be seated and forgotten.. our waitress was great!!

  • 5/5 Jennifer S. 2 years ago on Google
    The last 2 times my husband and I went to dinner it was really nice. The first time there was a 15 min wait, not bad at all. The 2nd time there was no wait, and both times it was on a Friday. The servers we had both times were really fast with everything, friendly and offered to get us bread while we waited for our food. I love getting the sangria flight, it comes with three 4 oz glasses, each one is really good! And we always get the avocado egg rolls to start with, which are very tasty and filling. The 2nd time we tried a different pizza, it was a spicy one, and asked to get it on their reg dough instead of the thin. It was just enough spice, and enough to share:) We hadn't been here in a while, but I'm glad it has been nice dinners that we can have close to home when we don't have a sitter for too long.

  • 5/5 Rachelle B. 2 years ago on Google
    The restaurant had a nice, warm ambience. They had indoor/outdoor seating available, but we chose to dine indoors since it was a bit chilly. The food was great: we ordered the spinach artichoke dip, wild mushroom pizza and our little one had the pepperoni pizza. Definitely a nice sit-down environment if you’re looking to satisfy your pizza cravings. We didn’t feel rushed or hurried while we were there, which is always a plus.

  • 5/5 Gustavo G. 2 years ago on Google
    I don't know why but I'm always pleasantly surprised by the pizza. Different than most but absolutely delicious

  • 3/5 Kelli M. 2 years ago on Google
    Very pricey and the chicken in our different dishes tasted plain.. extremely disappointing. On the plus side, the service and our server was very attentive.

  • 5/5 River P. 2 years ago on Google
    The staff here are friendly, the food is excellent! I had the half Waldorf chicken salad which was more than enough for me and the most delicious salad I've ever had. Our server Sonia was the best! We will be coming back here😊👍

  • 2/5 Sam B. 2 years ago on Google
    I’m giving 2 stars for the spicy buffalo cauliflower because it taste pretty good but the cost was $9.49 for this tiny portion. I would not order this again. I am thoroughly disappointed at the portion for the price. Please do better! Location: 2015 Birch Road Chula Vista
