California Pizza Kitchen

Don't get me wrong. I do like CPK. The pizzas are very good (especially the popular BBQ Chicken and Thai Chicken pizzas), and the salads are good and large (one salad can probably feed two people), and the appetizers are also tasty.However, the service, as with most chains, is hit-and-miss. In general, I find the service at CPK franchises to be unattentive. And the ambiance? Well, if you like black, white, and yellow tile, and a big pizza oven fire, then this is the place for you.Also, be warned: you will probably have to wait 45 minutes or longer at peak times.
