California Pizza Kitchen

Pizza came out cold, sent it back and came back «nuked». Now both my girlfriend and I are sick. Definitely avoid this place.

The service was nice, with our server being a good guy. The food was also good, with nice personal pizzas. I got the meat lovers pizza, and it was pretty oily. I knocked a star off because the price is a bit high (my pizza was 18.50).

Not really pleased that special requests were not accommodated… My friend has a shrimp allergy, and the waitress seemed unconcerned. She did not offer to go and ask the kitchen about possible safer options. She just told us to be careful what we ordered.
When our food arrived, after we waited almost 30 minutes in the nearly empty restaurant, my macaroni and cheese was only warm, and looked slightly congealed. Ugh. The service was the slowest I have ever experienced and none of the waiters/​waitresses seemed interested in refilling glasses.
Skipped dessert and left after waiting to pay the bill…

I enjoyed stopping in CPK to have their delicious salads, or pita and hummus appetizers. The last server we had was not having a good day and I understand we all have been there before, but I’d much prefer a more positive atmosphere, especially when I’m eating. I decided to give it another chance and order something to go. Absolutely never again! The service was awful. I asked where to go to pick up my order and was talked down to because Clearly I was «bothering» her. The server at the bar that asked about my order spoke very low and with a tone of malcontent. No thank you.

Great service. Had potato soup and spinach dip. My friend had a pizza. All was delicious. The menu on line says they have gluten free options but an asterisk on the menu says they do not have gluten free at this location. That was a disappointment.

We only ate her because we were super hungry and we just arrived to Vegas. The food was good but the prices we’re expensive compare to a regular CPK outside of a casino.

Horrible horrible food and server. I ordered a wedge salad and asked the waitress if it could be chopped, she said «no, it can’t be». First place I’ve ever been to that said they couldn’t chop my salad. Pizza was gross, cold and the chicken tasted like it was out of a can. The waitress sucked the entire time and never refilled our water or checked on us once but did give a huge smile and asked how our meal was when she gave us to check. Nice try. Will not return.

Sis and I popped into the Cali Pizza Kitchen because the Carnegie Deli — one of our favorite spots — has gone computerized and we just don’t like that.
I’m a big fan of the frozen CPK pizzas, so thought the ‘real thing’ would be… spectacular!
We chose the Spinach Artichoke thin crust pizza. And it was exactly the same as out of the frozen section from the grocery store. In fact, I’ll bet their garbage out back is nothing but empty pizza boxes.

By far the worst spinach and artichoke we have ever had, no flavour, looked to be only spinach olive oil and a little garlic, was gross.
Had the favourite bbq chicken pizza; very small portion came out, which was cold aswell, pizza never had cheese, chicken was old and dry, and the crust wasn’t fully cooked, seems like since it was later in the evening they figure they’re dealing with drunk people and can make bare minimum over priced food, or the chef is doing key bumps towards the end of his shift, horrible service too, stick to papa johns if you want a pizza joint

We’ve been to California Kitchens all over but this was our 1^st time at this particularly location. We ordered 2 personal pizzas, a lunch special, and a full salad. It was my first time ordering the salad (I cannot remember the name but it had grapes, apples, celery, and nuts in it) and I couldn’t eat it fast enough! It was GREAT! :). We all ate everything and there were absolutely no complaints! The waiter was very prompt and attentive and another staff member even came and checked on us as well prior to our departure. Overall we had a great experience here with some great food. My daughter cannot get enough of the club pizza!

The food is the same as any CPK location. This location is overpriced, crowded, loud, under staffed, and just not worth walking through the smoky casino to get to. They can’t really fit a party more than 6 without splitting up the group.

This CPK does not allow you to use any CPK coupons. I guess «it’s in the mirage». That was my answer from the horrible service from the waitress who I would call out but she did not introduce herself nor was she wearing a name tag. I’m also ticked off because I waited nearly 15min before I was asked «are you ready?» When I haven’t even been handed a glass of water or ordered a drink yet. The restaurant was not busy., it was mid day– Monday.
When I finally was able to order my food, I ordered the top rated bbq chicken pizza. From my understanding a top rated pizza should be outstanding, not a cold disappointment. My pizza was cold and looked like it was made with the chefs eye closed. How do you screw up pizza? On top of all of this I had never been to a CPK.

The bbq chicken pizza was pretty good and the crispy Mac and cheese was amazing. The cilantro on the pizza was a nice touch. I didn’t give 5 stars because it felt like I waited forever for drink refills. I would eat here again.

Came in for a quick bite before the LOVE show and ordered a Maine Lobster Flatbread which was outstanding as well as the dumplings… very good. Great Service and just a nice quick spot. Pizza’s and other food I saw being delivered around me looked amazing !

Perfect place to get an afternoon pizza and walk through the Mirage ;)
We did half cheese half Hawaiian. So good as always :)
Was pretty busy on a weekend afternoon. To drink I had the Mai Tai, it was good! It comes out of that automatic shaker machine as they do not have a full bar.

This place used to be better. They have changed their menu significantly in the last year. No more White Pizza, the portions are smaller, and the drink menu is quite limited (beer and wine, limited mixed drinks).
Our waiter was the lone bright spot as he really tried to give great service. unfortunately, our pizzas came out before the other entrees (Salmon and flat bread came out much later). You are in Las Vegas, don’t settle for this place — there are many better places!

Been to this CPK tons of time (I come to Vegas atleast once a year), the food is really cooked well but the service has to be improved a lot.
The joint is in Mirage where the footfall is heavy but clearly from other reviewers also the service is pretty slow and rude. Our service experience was ok, nothing great. The food was awesome (specially the pastas) but please improve the service !!

Richtig gute Pizza, mal anders und interessant belegt. Wir hatten eine sehr freundliche Bedienung, aber anzumerken war, essen, zahlen und raus bitte… Zeit ist Geld. Schade, mit ein bisschen besserem Kundenservice macht es hier noch mehr Spaß. Ambiente: Casino– u. Sportsbar –like

It has been over a year since we’ve visited CPK located inside the Mirage. I’m not a huge fan of this particular location because it’s hectic most of the time and that almost guarantees a not so spectacular dining experience but we were in the area and pizza was on our minds.
I was pleasantly surprised when we got there at a little after 6 pm, the wait was only about 10 minutes even though the place was abuzz due to the NBA finals. We were seated right in the middle of all the action so excitement was in the air, I didn’t even notice that it took them about 15 minutes to take our drink orders. My husband, not a huge basketball fan, decided to entertain himself by timing how long it would take the servers to refill our drinks or take the used appetizer plates although I wished he had done that after we placed our food order because that took at least 45 minutes and I would’ve wanted to know how long it took exactly. The servers noticed as he was doing it but it didn’t really make a difference service wise lol.
For appetizer we ordered their Spinach artichoke dip ($ 13.50) the dip itself was very tasty but it was hard to bypass the chips which were soaked and glistening with oil.
We got 3 kinds of pizza shared amongst 4 adults and 2 kids:
–Thai chicken pizza with grilled chicken, peanut sauce and topped with bean sprouts on thin crust ($ 19+)
–White pizza with 4 kinds of cheeses, sautéed spinach and roasted garlic on hand tossed crust ($ 17+)
–Sicilian pizza with Italian sausage, Capicola ham, Salami also on thin crust ($ 18+)
I was looking forward to eating the butter cake with ice cream for dessert but by the time we finished we were stuffed. I wouldn’t be opposed to eating here again because the food is actually tasty but it’s not something I would seek out due to the location. Even with the $ 2 – 3 mark up because of the casino location, they do offer Vegas locals 20% off the entire bill.

Love when places offer gluten free options and this place had a plethora! I went for the spicy chipotle chicken pizza. It was so delicious & loaded wt chicken and habanero peppers. The crust was flaky and perfectly cooked. Hands down the most delish pizza I’ve had… I ate the whooooolllleee thang!

Staying at the Mirage, we didn’t feel like walking far after a day full of walking, so we stayed close and hit up California Pizza Kitchen.
As far as food goes, it was the same you can expect from CPK everywhere you go. I don’t recall exactly what we got, but it was 2 pizzas. One was a white sauce with bacon and spinach, I believe. The other had chicken, avocados, and lettuce. Both were quite good, as expected.
The restaurant was pretty full, and the staff was definitely being pushed. They were still very friendly and helpful and didn’t let the stress get to them, while still maintaining their sense of urgency. Great job!
It was a great dinner and I wouldn’t hesitate to go back.

Well my husband and I stayed at the hotel so we had dinner at this place.
The hostess was super rude, she was almost shouting «HOW MANY» when we entered, no hello no smile. I surely don’t expect much but being polite is part of her job. The place filled up pretty quick and since we had the table by the entrance we had people so close to our table waiting that it was truly uncomfortable to eat while starring at other people’s butts. They have to change this system for sure. There were probably only 3 waiters for this whole place and they worked hard and tried to be as fast as possible to serve all their tables. Meanwhile the manager was literally walking in circles (the restaurant is shaped like one) so he was making his rounds whthout helping his struggling staff, stopping by the hostesses table to check his phone a few times and keep on walking. I’m not sure if he doesnt know what his actual job is as a manager but it drove me crazy because I work in hospitality and only a good manager keeps a restaurant great, I just felt really sorry for all the servers…
The food was good by the way but service adds a lot to a restaurant experience!
