Reviews of California Pizza Kitchen at Desert Ridge (Restaurant)

Brian Wendt

We were there for over 30 minutes before getting our food despite being ready to order fairly soon after getting there. Being on our lunch break, speed is important. No one was impressed with their food. I got a flatbread that looked more like an appetizer. For the price I expected something with a bit more substance.

CPK used to be a consistently great restaurant. Took our Grandchildren today for lunch. Unbelievable poor service and the food wasn't much better. Waited so long and if we all weren't so hungry we would have left. Mgr ended up waiting on us initially. She told us mgrs just keep walking out. Ended up having to go up to ask for bread and never did get water we asked for. Heard several tables around us with the same issues. One woman had to walk up to the staff to pay her bill. It's a shame as we used to look forward to going .

Great food and drinks...a good variety. Nice place to take family and kids or friends

Hayley Kling

Food was alright but the server kept forgetting our table or bringing us the wrong thing.

Slow service but always courteous. Salad was soggy like premade and dressed day before served only 3 bite size bits of chicken. Not worth the price.

We go here every year for my birthday because they accommodate food allergies. The staff is always smiling and ensuring we have a good time. This year was no different. Highly recommend it for a casual outing

Chipotle spicy chicken pizza was good but I wish they warmed up the corn and beans a bit instead of just taking from the fridge and sprinkle those on the pizza !

I had the Grilled Garlic Chicken with seasonal vegetables on Sun., Sept. 29. It was FANTASTIC! It was a very filling dinner, the drinks (passion fruit tea mixture )were plentiful, and the waitress was great! Even though it was a Sun, lunch time, a birthday party going on; we still had fast service. I highly recommend this place!.

First time there and I didnt have the pizza. I had a fabulous salad, my friend had the mac and cheese which was enough for 2 people, and that was the lunch portion. Great place, great waiters, cost environment. I will definitely go back

Server was slow and inattentive. Food was decent. You shouldn't have to wait fifteen minutes for water on the hottest day of the year.

Avacado egg roll and Thai salad are amazing. Get it

Food was like it's been for years never waivers much. The service is still as slow as sh*t, you would think that would get better but never seems to. They do have have some great new drinks which I am now duplicating at home.

Service was very fast and friendly. I was surprised to have absolutely no wait during lunch as we got a seat immediately. The size of this place pays off with the below wait time. The waitress was very helpful as she provided suggestions from the menu and helped guide us to a delicious lunch. Their select two lunch meal was my choice with a salad and pizza. Their BBQ pizza hit the spot quite nicely. I would recommend this place and I plan to return soon.

Love the food but I like the Biltmore location better. Food is better there.

Lindsay Tustison

Ordered two small pizzas after being there for 10 minutes then waited for another 35 minutes and never saw our pizza. We had a four year old who was hungry and restless and we had to leave without getting our food. We won’t be back. Plus it smelled weird in the restaurant.

Saurabha Deshpande

If you want light pizza unlike pizza hut, dominos, this is best place to be at ..

Johnny Vigil

Quick and efficient! Great stop in. The reason not 5 star is their loyalty sign in is horrible. They were great and the food is good.

Abdul Bailey

We had a large group of adults and kids. The wait staff did a great job servicing our needs. I am happy with our experience.

Kaihley Reiner

We took some friends there and the service was outstanding! We tried the White Corn Guacamole and it was delectable but the portion was very very small and pricey. We each ordered different dishes and everyone really enjoyed their respective dinner.

Went for a corporate birthday lunch with team. Food was great and service was good. It was far less busy than I expected for a midweek lunch at 12.

Food was hot for once in years. Service was horrible. Hostess forgetting tables and stopping at one table and chatting alot. Seems she favored the large tables. Management was no were to be seen. Tried to get help from other staff with no success. Might do takeout but forget eating there.

I had a pleasant visit and dining experience at this outlet. I always like California Pizza Kitchen's food. One of their waitress, Amanda is attentive and her recommendation is spot on.
