California Pizza Kitchen At Northridge

We used to order from this restaurant all the time when we lived close by, even during Covid because our children loved making their own pizza kits. However, something went wrong today when we picked up a dessert for my birthday. Myself and two others got sick after eating the red velvet and chocolate soufflé, and spent the last hour in the bathroom. When I called the restaurant to discuss the issue, I was put on hold for 10 minutes. We will not be returning again.

The service at this restaurant was terrible. I went for a quick dinner with one adult and two kids on a school night. It took almost two hours to receive our pizza and salad bowl. I had to constantly flag down waiters for water, a to-go box, and the check. While the staff was nice and the food was good, the overall experience was not worth the stress. Even when I asked for something, the response was slow. Despite the restaurant not being very busy and having plenty of waiters available.

The manager stopped by to offer us refills on our drinks, but we declined at first. However, when we later asked for refills, we were charged for them. It may have been a misunderstanding on our part. The food was fantastic, but we ended up paying about $25 more for drinks.

Came in here for a Sunday dinner with family.20 mins wait , courteous staffI ordered the mushroom pizza with cauliflower crust , the roasted garlic chicken , passion fruit iced tea and mango strawberry coolers.Lets come to the pizzas first , cauliflower crust was amazing, toppings were adequate and was a light yummy pizzaThe roasted garlic chicken was bit average, i could hardly taste any garlic , bottom line, not worth the bucks.Coolers were highly sweetened and was just sugar water really.Nice thing is they offer refills on iced teas which compliments the pizzas really well.Would love to try more here .More on IG @whatscookinginLA

CpK always has excellent service and a warm ambience. The drinks are delicious (both the cocktails and mocktails) and the apps pizzas are top notch. You can't go wrong with the carne asada pizza or the chicken tequila fettuccine! Oh man !
