California Pizza Kitchen At University Mall

It was a great place to eat on a Friday night! we sat immediately in comparison to the 45 minutes waiting time in olive garden. it is a little expensive $50 for 1 drink, 1 appetizer and 2 entrees) but the taste and service makes it worth it. went home with leftovers, who always a plus for a higher price for me personally. it is a cheesecake factory, but more italian specific and quieter!

During the week are quiet so that lunch or early dinner is really fast. my children did the sweetest activity there they do for parties. they must make their own pizza and make a tour through the kitchen. they were completely over the moon! the staff was so sweet and friendly, even with really small children 2-5 years old). I want to bring the future parties there!

Food and service were great. the server was super friendly and professional. I liked the atmosphere, we had good time

I'm here to dip my pizza into her Marinara sauce! the sauce is magical in my opinion! the Thai salad also so good! and the Sonoma chicken flat brot!

POSITIVES: During my last visit, I had a free 7 pepperoni from a T Mobile offer. This brick oven baked mini pizza had a great chewy texture, good thickness, and tasty ingredients on top. I couldn't tell what herbs/seasonings were used, but it reminded me of coriander. The server, Whitney was very polite and did her best to stay on top of bringing out complimentary bread and refilling waters as she could. NEGATIVES: I would've given 3 stars based on the wait time alone. I had a table just to myself, and I think I was there for almost 2 hours... for a small pepperoni pizza. I was seated immediately which was great, but it took 30 minutes just to get the complimentary bread and water served. Then another hour or so for the pizza to come out. It wasn't even that busy when I arrived, but steadily got more busy as the evening progressed. Granted there were only 2 waitresses working. PRICE: Expect to pay anywhere from $10 20 per person. You could easily split one large pizza and have some leftovers.
