This California Pizza Kitchen just gets better every time we go. We often eat in, but this time we did take away and were so pleased. The place itself is ever so clean and the staff is just wonderful. They have the best salads. We...have had the Caesar salad and the chopped salad. They all are great and come with the best bread and some great olive oil. You can't go wrong with any of their pizzas. I love the Thai pizza and my husband like all the rest. I have never seen a place improve so much on every visit. We are now doing take away about once a week. Have a great time.More

I don't know what they did, maybe they changed management, but CPK is back in the Marina the way it should be--perfect. We have ordered there so many times now I have lost count and each and every time our order is perfect and the...service is great. We have not eaten inside much, but when we do the service is friendly and fast and the food great. We have been doing CPK take away at least 10 times in the past few months. It is that good. We call it in or just walk in. The manager there is so great. If there is the slightest problem, they are on it right away. They tell us when to pick up and it is hot and ready the minute we get there. All of their take away is as good as eating there, and that is not usually my experience with a lot of other take aways. We love all of their pizza and now have been through the entire menu of pizza. We have not tried the cauliflower dough and never will, just not our thing. The five cheese is so great and the shrimp pizza and Thai pizza are some of our favorites. We also love their bread and they give you plenty if you ask, I do and I get extra and it is so good. It is always fresh. Their pastas are also very good. We especially love all of their salads. Try their chopped or Italian or Caesar. Just wow. This is now our favorite CPK and we are so open to be able to go local again. So go there.More

This California Pizza Kitchen used to be great. They had dine in and take out and still do. The food used to be hot, not burned, and they gave you this wonderful bread with butter. The service was exceptional and service was pretty fast. Now,...I won't be back to this one. We went there and ordered to go. One of the pizzas was burned and did not have any flavor. We ordered mac and cheese, and I swear there was next to no cheese. It had some sort of mild sauce, maybe cheese, but we had to add cheddar, and a lot, when we got home before my grandson would eat it. If we wanted dry noodles we would have asked for that. They used to have this great bread and they still do, but they gave us 3 little pieces about the size of a 50 cent piece and no butter. Now, it was clear we were ordering for 4 and the size of the bread told me how they are just becoming cheap, as their prices rise. We also ordered a large Caesar salad with chicken. There were a few pieces of chicken. Just wow. I had a 5 cheese pizza and it was good and that is all I can say that is good about this place.More

Good food. Fresh, healthy, natural and tasty. They sold me on 8 chicken dumplings, but it was six made to order. The soup was great. The drink was basically a virgin mojito, which made for a great thirst quencher. I didn’t notice the lunch specials...(on soups, sandwiches, pastas and pizzas) until after I ordered. So, remember to turn paper menus over for more options. Great customer service. They followed pandemic regulations and allowed customers the use the restroom. Also, Hand sanitizers were readily available for customers. I give CPK Marina Del Ray 4.5/5 starsMore

Our second visit to the chain. This time in the state of California! Seated immediately, our server was extremely professional and was quick and efficient. Thank you Jemela! We ordered the Carne Asada Pizza, and the Spicy Chipotle Pizza. Would recommend. Filled with flavor and...come with signature sauces you can top each slice with that really brings the meal all together. For dessert we had a Key Lime Pie, and the Strawberry Shortcake. Good way to end the night. Great flavor. Overall the experience was beyond great. Might go again before we leave.More

If salad is your favorite this is the place for you. Many varieties and all good. The pizzas are personal size so ordering more than one is wise. Good pasta and appetizers. All the French bread you’d like and free refills on sodas and coffee.

We had to wait 10 mins for a table as there didn’t appear to be enough servers although there were plenty of kitchen staff preparing and cooking food. We had limited time so had decided whilst waiting what we wanted to order we were able...to order immediately when we were seat. The food came out within a reasonable time and was tasty. I would return!More

We were promptly greeted and seated on a Saturday at 4:30 pm. We brought Our Mother to Celebrate her 88 th Birthday. She enjoyed the service, the bread, food,dessert and our Sweet Waitress. I wish I knew her name. She was very attentive our whole...visit. There was 6 of us. My Sister said Our Waitress reminds her of Alicia Keys. I said why? Then I guessed because of her natural beauty, soft spoken and great personality. Sister said yes exactly! Thank You to All The Staff that made our Mother’s 88th Birthday Special.More

Been here a couple of times with my friends and have not been disappointed yet. The pizzas are really good and so are the non-pizza items. They bring out bread but most of the time they don't bring out enough for the whole table. I...really like their non-alcoholic drinks. The service is also really good. Definitely will keep coming back.More

This is a decent CPK. It is not great, but the prices are good for Santa Monica. It is rarely very busy, so you can usually get a table fairly quickly. The service can be spotty as some of the servers don't seem to be...very interested.More
