So Amazing, I grew up on this food and have been here over 300 times seriously.... That's just in the last 10 years before that, I used to come in with friends before closing to get Tiramisu Chocolate Milk, 4-6 times a week not included in my official count... Unfortunately they took my favorite desert off the menu like so many other things since I was a little kid I lost, this tiramisu loss hurt the most, it's not like any other on earth and can't make it like they do, even with the 3 Official CPK cookbooks I they also took so many other things I love and are irreplaceable like, Focaccia bread, Mediterranean spring rolls, black bean southwestern quesadillas, chicken Caesar sandwich on focac...
We sat at the bar as we usually do, but the bartender was quite unfriendly and didn’t smile at all. I can overlook that, but unfortunately, the food was really unsatisfactory this time. My husband's laugh was overcooked and dry; he could only eat a third of it. My cauliflower pizza was burnt and overly crispy, tasting more like a cracker than a pizza.
The manager was also not pleasant. We ended up spending about $65 for the night, and despite the poor service, I gave the bartender a $25 tip, hoping she was just having a busy night and that a nice tip might cheer her up. Overall, it was a rather disappointing experience at CPK, a place we have always loved.
Update: I completed the questionnaire that the owner mentioned in their response, and I appreciate that they are working to improve. I enjoy dining here, so I hope my next experience is better. Unfortunately, our orders often have issues. Whether it's missing toppings or incorrect add-ons on the pizza, it seems like something is always wrong. If we don't notice it before leaving, we have to go back, which makes everything cold by the time we return.
The food was fantastic! Be sure to browse the menu online beforehand, as there are plenty of options to choose from. We shared a five-cheese pizza topped with tomatoes and a grilled vegetable salad, which was more than enough for two hearty appetites. The service was highly professional as well. Overall, this is a great restaurant!

The atmosphere was lively and the setting was charming! While the food was just average, our server was very polite. However, the wait for our meals felt like an eternity. Be prepared to wait at least 45 minutes from placing your order to receiving your food. We only ordered pizzas, so I’m not sure why it took so long.
We have gone a dozen times or so, for birthdays, after sporting events and just because. The grandkids like the ambience and most parents seem to like that there is a patio allowing a little more noise from their kids during the meals.
This restaurant is a must-visit for anyone who loves delicious food. There's a wide variety of options beyond just pizza. Be sure to try the wedge salads and the egg rolls; you definitely won’t be disappointed!
This location truly shines with its outstanding service, charming decor, and the best pizzas compared to the downtown and Westwood branches. Thank you all!

I really enjoy the pizza at this restaurant; they also offer an excellent selection of wines, and their strawberry lemonade is incredibly tasty.
I really appreciate that you held a fundraiser for Fire Captain David Rosa from the Long Beach Fire Department!
