So me and my girl were having a date night at CPK. Everything was going well and our waiter, his name was Antonio, was super friendly. Told him our order, waited for our food and he came back with our delicious food. I had the cedar plank salmon and my girlfriend had the chicken and shrimp fettuccine. Now about under a minute into our meal, my girlfriend noticed that there was a tiny hair in her food. I told her stop eating it and that I'll just let our waiter know. He comes by asking how we are doing and I mention the piece of hair my girlfriend found in her fettuccine. Our waiter sprung into action being very proactive, by taking her plate and saying "I'm super sorry! Don't worry I will get you another one! Just might need to wait a bit." He was very sweet and wanted to make sure we weren't getting annoyed. He was apologetic about the whole thing and we mentioned that it was okay and that we were okay with the wait. Later he came back with a nice full plate of fettuccine, again saying he was sorry for the inconvenience. We said "Don't worry about it and thank you!". Went through our meal and we were just going to wrap up. He asked us if we were going to have dessert that evening. We said no because we usually have dessert at other places. Until he came back saying that the manager approved a butter cake with a scoop of ice cream! dessert on the house. Which me and my girlfriend usually never eat dessert at the we had dinner at. However, we might reconsider now because that butter cake was one of the best cakes me and my girl have ever had and with the ice cream it made it way better. So huge thank you to the manager for that because we will definitely think about ordering that in the future. Our waiter Antonio, he handled the whole process of that night very well. He looked like he was the busiest guy there and he was still thinking about our inconvenience in the back of his head. He was handling a lot of the tables inside and all of the tables outside. So the fact that he was so consistent and thoughtful to every detail at every table truly deserves some notice for great service! Please reward him because he definitely made a difference in our night. Thank you Antonio! read more

Had a nice selection for happy hour, maybe more food options would be nice. Food came out fairly quickly and service was decent, Love the avocado egg rolls & spinach artichoke dip! read more

Really disappointing experience at California Pizza Kitchen Pearlridge. The food was subpar and overpriced for what we received. I understand the restaurant is short-staffed, but at this point, everyone is dealing with staffing challenges. It's time to figure out how to operate around it without the quality and customer experience taking the hit. The pizza came out burnt, and the street corn was honestly a joke. For the prices being charged, the food should be much better than this. Unfortunately, the drinks were the only good part of the experience. Definitely not the CPK experience I expected, and not worth the price. read more

Haven't been to CPK in a while, so I decided to drop in for lunch with my boys. We came in when it wasn't busy and were seated right away. ​We started with the Spinach Artichoke Dip, but the portion of bread served with it was noticeably smaller than what I remember from past visits. For our main meals, we ordered the Chicken Piccata, Burnt Ends BBQ Pizza, and Thai Crunch Salad. The food itself was delicious and did not disappoint. ​Unfortunately, the service left a lot to be desired--especially given how quiet the restaurant was. Our server checked on us once right after the food was brought out, but never stopped back to offer water refills or ask if we needed more bread. The next time she returned was at the end of our meal to clear plates, which is when I asked for the check. ​Between the hands-off service and a pretty steep total for 3 drinks, 1 appetizer, and 3 entrees, I won't be back anytime soon. read more

SERVER was completely unacceptable. Our server, Brittany, was outright rude when we asked to split the check, actually blaming us for not telling her in the beginning of the dinner if we wanted to divide the bill. To make matters worse, she was upset we decided to tip her 15%. On top of all that, we didn't receive one water refill during the whole dinner. It was just an odd experience overall. When I asked to order an appetizer, she said I can't I'm only taking food orders, which was odd because I feel like an appetizer is food or we should be allowed to order anything at anytime. Also, found it weird when our server put down the the ice cream with the candle and walked away when Happy Birthday was being sung. I know it's not mandatory but such an odd thing to do. Other than being rude it's just such an odd experience. Maybe it's not her fault, maybe it's just the training. Food Quality: We ordered the famous butter cake for dessert, but it was served completely cold, missing the warm, decadent texture it's supposed to have Drinks: If you're looking to grab a beverage, you're better off heading over to the CPK at Ala Moana instead. The drink quality and overall execution there are noticeably better. Also added this photo of a random hairball we found on our seat that we kicked off read more

The cooks here are very consistent. The food is very good, as is the service. I like the ambiance, especially missing the waiting in line going straight to eat at the bar where most of the action is. The Kapolei CPK has more of a selection as we went there last week. It would be great if they could match them item for item but the Kapolei CPK is larger in all aspects and therefore can provide more variety. However, the free bread with oil and balsamic vinegar is terrific at all CPK's. The quality for the value continues to be worth the weekly visit. read more

Happy to see this CPK still knows how to deliver those crave-worthy flavors I've loved for years. The wait time can get a little intense, but if you slide in around lunch, it's usually pretty manageable. My son and I stopped by last week and had a really enjoyable meal! The service was warm and attentive, and the food came out just as tasty as I remembered. Compared to the Kapolei CPK, which can be hit-or-miss, this location seems to have their standards locked down. Everything felt consistent, from the pacing of the meal to the attention to detail. Big fan of their rewards program, too - sign up and you score a free starter dish. (Heads up: not every appetizer is included, but the server explained the choices clearly.) The restaurant itself has a clean, trendy vibe. I'm not sure when the last remodel happened, but the space felt refreshed and well-maintained... definitely nicer than I recall since my last visit. Favorites I keep coming back to: - Thai Crunch with Avocado (always a winner) - Spinach Artichoke Dip (comfort food perfection) - Avocado Egg Rolls (don't skip these!) My son branched out with the Burnt Ends Pizza and gave it a big thumbs-up. A nice surprise was the freshly shaved Parmesan they're offering now. Maybe not the fanciest wedge of Parm, but hey - it's a step up from the usual powdered stuff and makes a difference. Another pleasant surprise: the bread! Instead of the typical chewy sourdough that sometimes leans dry, we were served a plate full of soft, fluffy bread that paired beautifully with olive oil, herbs, and balsamic. Pro tip: ask for the balsamic if it doesn't come automatically - it takes the dipping game to another level. Overall, this location feels like the more reliable sibling in the CPK family. Friendly service, solid flavors, and a few nice touches that make dining here feel fresh. read more

20 Jun We came to California Pizza Kitchen because we wanted to talk while we ate! We planned well, it was after the lunch crowd so we were alone in the big room! Nora, our waitress, was fantastic! She was supposed to leave at 3:00, however, she stayed until 3:30, we all were having fun! The menu is so full of things to eat, but I knew just what I wanted! Mexican Street Corn (sweet corn, feta cheese, paprika, and cilantro). I also got a Margherita pizza, with added avocado, on crispy crust!! The pizza was great, the crust was strong enough to handle the toppings, which I really appreciate! The Mexican Street Corn was also very good! The 3 of us split a piece of cheesecake with assorted berries, it was yummy! I know I will go back to this restaurant, there are a lot of things to try!!! Oh! Beware...the right side of the restaurant is kind of chilly! read more

Well, I forgot about my review regarding CPK's West Coast Burger disappointment with the tiny piece of bacon until just now reading it. Today, there were nice pieces of bacon that covered the burger BUT the serving of fries was terrible! There was only 1 whole potato wedge, the rest were wedge rejects! CPK should be embarrassed to serve this! Also, I think they packed the burger in the wrong container because it was smaller than other times we ordered it. They used to use a good size rectangle container but today, it was a small square one so I could hardly see the fries because the burger was on top of some. Smh... My Chicken Piccata was good as usual but they may have cut down on the pasta serving size. Pasta is inexpensive so food for thought...people remember when they feel like they got their moneys worth or don't feel hungry after they finish their meal so they will come back often or spread the word about how satisfied they were. I do... When they serve the food for people that dine in, the food has to be presentable because the customers can see the food but when you order a take out, we don't see the food until we get home. Guess they don't realize the disappointment we feel when we open up the containers. Just wondering...do they have someone checking orders going out for quality control? I usually pick up $400 worth of gift cards every year but after I use up my existing gift cards, I will think twice about buying more for myself or for gifts. When you think about it, even with the discounted CPK gift cards, the end price you pay for the food here comes out to be about the same or more than other places so if they don't improve, they may lose a lot of loyal customers. Will try to remember not to order the burger next time. read more

Yummy Nomy Nomy Nom. January was my first CPK visit and it was at the Pearl Ridge location. I was surprised it was so busy on a Sunday as we came for a late lunch but our wait was quoted at 40-45 minutes wait. We came with a group of 9 and had about a 30 minute wait. Thankfully, being at the mall helped so while we waited everyone did a little walking around and shopping. Now coordinating food with a big group is always a task but we ended up ordering one appetizer and 4 pizzas. We started with the spinach dip and bread which everyone had. We also were able to get a little more chips once it ran out. One of the gals in the group has a peanut allergy so we didn't choose to order the Thai Chicken pizza but instead got the BBQ Chicken Pizza. We also got (my favorites) Margherita pizza on crispy crust, California Cobb on hand tossed crust, and The Works. Several of the group had never eaten here so I loved being able to introduce them to one of my favorite pizza chains. And it was well received. We ate almost everything. I think there may have been one or 2 slices of pizza left at the end. We also had our monthly meeting for our youth group, Jr. YBA, in addition to eating. I appreciate that CPK was quiet enough that we were able to discuss our upcoming events and some business in between bites. It was a great way to start our 2026! read more

Wonderful smells! Very clean and nice place to sit & chat while munching. Always a pleasant experience coming here. The food is excellent (delicious vegan dishes), service is great and ambience's is a great place to chat with friends. Their appetizers are great and try their lettuce wraps. They're very tasty. Save room for the butter cake with ice cream, a nice finish to a good meal. Check it out! read more

We LOVE coming to CPK Pearlridge. Food was amazing. I've had spinach artichoke dip for many years. And I'm not sure if they changed the menu, but wow it was BOMB. Best I've had. Host was friendly, told us we'd have a 30 mins wait, but they were able to get us in 20 mins instead. We had a nice clean table. Charles was our server very polite and attentive. Got our entire order correct. Ordered kids meals, appetizers, drinks. He punched in the order real quick. Brought the drinks right away along with house bread and Balsamic Vinegar. He was also attentive on our drink refills. When it was time for my husband and I to order, I wanted his suggestion on soup between two choices. He suggested the tortilla soup. It was great! Food was brought to the table very quickly. Boys enjoyed their food. He brought us extra napkins, cheese, filled our waters. He checked on us multiple times to see if we needed anything and how our food was tasting. Yay so far so good. Then about half way into our dinner the manager approached our table to make sure we were enjoying our dinner. Vinny was very pleasant and professional. I had a special request that I knew would need manager attention or approval. So I give it a shot. For me customer service is sooooo important. Just a simple request if you are ABLE to help a customer out, it doesn't go unnoticed! Vinny was able to help me and go that extra mile to make our experience an amazing one!!! CPK pearlridge RIGHT ON!!! We will definitely be back!!!! They knew how to make us feel valued. read more

CPK is one of our favorite spots to eat at Pearlridge. The service is always friendly and the food comes out fast. They just brought back the Habanero Carnitas pizza, and it's sooo good! The pizza itself isn't spicy, but the salsa on the side definitely brings some heat. And of course, the Original BBQ Chicken Salad has been on the menu forever for a reason--it's always a winner. Plus, parking is free and there's plenty of it, so getting in and out is easy. read more

Our family decided to have dinner here and got seat within 15 minutes. Understandably it's dinner time so we knew there would be some waiting time. It was quite busy and our kiddies were fine with waiting for their food after putting in their order, filling themselves up with the complimentary bread. =) They all had the cpk kids pepperoni pizzas. It came out nicely hot where the cheese stretches out when you grab a slice. The youngest was trying to use the knife to slice his pizzas but somehow it slipped and the pizzas landed on his hand and fell on top the floor. It was still hot so his hand was red from the heat. The server was kind to put in another order and we didn't get charge for it. We really appreciate it. After icing the kiddie's hand, the redness went away and was happy munching away on the new fresh pizzas. Our family always enjoys coming to any CPK. read more

A restaurant that has been a stable at pearlridge center for decades. Always good service from the friendly staff as well as great food. The dining area is large and can be a little on the louder side but overall a nice place to sit down and have a meal with a friend. They allow you to join the waitlist via cellphone so you're able to walk around the mall while you wait for your table to become available (if you're not able to be seated right away). Great place to try if you haven't already! read more

Decent eats at pearl ridge. Bbq chicken pizza is good - we like it w thin crust. Mom likes the bread and butter for some reason.

What in gods name happened to this place ?! We used to be regulars here. The last 3 times I have come here, take out been 25+ minutes behind scheduled pick up time. We have dined in once in the last year , service was mediocre at best. There were 3 other patrons behind me waiting for pick up who were not even acknowledged for at 15 minutes. This used to be one of the most consistent places around. 30 minutes AFTER scheduled pick up time is unacceptable. We could have dined in for faster service than take out Really sad what's become of CPK Pearl Ridge coming from an "elite" member. read more

I rarely write reviews, but my experience at CPK Pearlridge on 03/18/2026 at 7 PM was disappointing enough that I felt it needed to be shared. We checked in for a table at 7 PM and were told the wait would be 20-25 minutes, which was perfectly fine with us. We waited outside the restaurant as instructed. After 40 minutes passed, we learned that our table had been given away. The hostess claimed a text was sent at 7:21 PM, but we never received anything--and we were only a party of two. If the restaurant relies solely on text notifications, it might be worth adding a backup method, such as calling the phone number provided or calling out names outside before giving away a table. Because of this mix‑up, we weren't seated until 8 PM, and the hostess never apologized. My friend politely explained the situation to our server and asked if anything could be done to make up for the inconvenience. The manager came over, but instead of greeting us or acknowledging the issue, the first thing she said was, "What's going on?" After I explained, her response was simply, "We are busy." She offered to comp only one drink--even though we were paying separately--and still did not apologize for the long wait or the mistake. We grew up eating at this CPK, so it was disappointing to receive such poor service at a place we've enjoyed for years. read more

Haven't been to CPK in a long time but I remember liking their pasta. Came here for lunch with my sister, her oldest kid & my 1 yr old. We didn't wait long to be seated or to get our orders in. My sister & I got the garlic cream linguine with mushrooms. My nephew got mac n cheese with chicken & my baby got the kids curly mac n cheese. My first time trying it & I enjoyed it. It was good while it was hot but as I go back & forth feeding my baby, my pasta got a bit dry.. Our server was good, but she kinda took long with the payment. My sister gave her card, the server took it & then went somewhere.. then came back to the register right next to our table saying she forgot to check us out. But other than that, everything was good. read more

Superb! We were brought in to use our 40th anniversary Thank You card before expiration. Our server, Kuulei, went over and beyond. When taking our order, she had asked if we had a phone number to link our rewards account. In my previous experiences with CPK, different locations, she's the first to ask me. I'm usually the one to have to ask the server about it. She even checked my available rewards to potentially use that evening. Just amazing service. The restaurant was quite busy so food orders took a bit to arrive, but I didn't mind at all. The decor is vibrant. They had a wall of colorful tiles that I could not figure out how it came together. The food is just on point. The lettuce wraps and avocado egg rolls are a MUST. Super filling so be mindful of that when ordering, unless you want leftover food to take home or you have a big appetite. I'm a sucker for blue cheese so I had to order the full size of cobb salad. We also ordered the burnt ends pizza to try something new. We didn't finish everything and ended up taking home. I refused a takeout bag, not realizing how much food we packed. And Kuulei brought one anyways. So awesome. read more

I thought i should update my review for a great restaurant visit. Came here with my friends for happy hour on a Friday. We were bummed that CPK changed their happy hour deals, it's no longer 1/2 off for drinks and appetizers from 3-6 pm M-F, but they have $5-$8 specials instead. Unfortunately the avocado rolls are no longer on special for happy hour but it was still yummy. We still enjoyed the avocado chips and dip ($6) and dynamite shrimp ($8) for happy hour. The food tasted great even without the previous happy hour specials and the service was friendly. read more

Food and location are good and I hate writing negative reviews but this review has been a long time coming. We dine here every so often, mostly for their happy hour, but I always forget how disappointing and frustrating the experience is when we go there. Happy hour runs from 4-6 pm. We always have issues being seated in a timely manner even though there are TONS of available tables. They say it's because of a lack of servers but it's interesting that they take 3 tables of 2 right away but can't seat the table of 5 who has been waiting for 15 minutes. Last I checked, 3x2=6 which is one more than 5. Anyway I'm not sure if they do this purposefully since they want less orders to be taken during their happy hour, but that's what it seems like. I gave it two stars even though at the moment I feel like it's 1 just because our servers are usually nice and like I said, the food and drinks are good. I think I blame management. They need to fix this and it's been a problem for a LONG time. read more

Went here for Veterans Day - one free entree (choice from small menu and a drink). The wait was 2+ hours they said, so we walked around and only waited about an hour for bar seating. The girl working at the host stand and the girl behind the bar were both very friendly, especially given how busy they were. I got the chopped Italian salad and my boyfriend had the bbq chicken pizza. The portions were good. They tasted good. It's a corporate place so nothing I would come back for, but it wasn't a bad experience! read more

We ordered CPK catering from the Pearlridge location for our son's birthday, and everything was great from start to finish. We got kids' personal cheese and pepperoni pizzas, an assortment of pizzas for the adults, plus salad and artichoke dip, and it was all a hit with our guests. The food was fresh, delicious, and ready right on time, which we really appreciated while hosting a party. The staff was also friendly and helpful at pickup, making the whole experience smooth and stress-free. CPK Pearlridge was a perfect catering option and we'd definitely order from them again! Thank you!!! read more

The CPK at Pearlridge is wonderful. I love how they put more seating outside. So you can definitely dine outside if you wanted to; beautiful! Customer service was awesome, and of course food was delicious. Our server was so Pro-active; always checking up on us to see if we were okay or needed anything. Mahalo! read more

We visited CPK on a Saturday that wasn't too busy, and they kindly accommodated us with our newborn in her stroller. Right off the bat, we appreciated the thoughtfulness of the staff. They started us with complimentary bread. While the first round was a bit too soft, the second batch was perfect! It was crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. For appetizers we ordered a bowl of their tomato basil soup, which was delicious and HUGE! A cup size might be more manageable if you want something smaller, similar in size to their spinach artichoke dip. We dipped the bread into the soup, and it was a great combo. For our main course, I ordered the ribeye and swapped the broccolini for a side Caesar salad at no extra charge. My partner got the shrimp and chicken lettuce wrap, which was a fantastic appetizer--light yet flavorful. The ribeye was a perfect size to fill you up but not leave you full full. It was cooked well and loved the hint of char from the grill. The service was quick, the staff was friendly, and overall, the food was tasty. We had a wonderful dining experience here and would definitely recommend it for a casual, enjoyable meal out. read more

Sorry this review is a bit late as we were here on Halloween for dinner. I mainly wanted to compliment my server and the manager who worked that night. Sorry, I forgot their names. What happened is I ordered the Braised short rib ragu and while the taste was fine, the pasta was lumpy and did not have a good consistency. I mentioned this to my server and he immediately took care of it by ordering a new dish for me. I really didn't intend to get another dish, just wanted to make sure that they knew but he insisted that they wanted to make it right. Thank you CPK Pearlridge for the excellent service! read more

Let me just say this -- all managers should take note on how amazing Vinnie is! Friendly, attentive, funny, personable -- and most importantly, he did not disappoint in making dining at this CPK location happen for us! A couple weeks ago, I dined here and asked about celebrating my daughter's birthday with a large group. I was told to call a couple hours ahead since they don't take advance reservations. So that's exactly what I did -- called two hours before and let them know I was coming in hot with a group of 14! The person who answered said they don't take RSVPs, and for a moment, I thought my plan was about to fall apart. Then Vinnie got on the phone -- calm, confident, and reassuring. He told me, "Don't worry, we'll make it happen (or at least try) when you get here." After our fun celebration at Ama's Dream Shop, our group walked over, 15 minutes early. We were greeted by the sweetest hostesses -- and there was Vinnie himself! His warm welcome instantly eased my worries. Within minutes, he had our big group seated inside. Yes, the place was packed, but our server Sunshine handled it all beautifully. Food, laughter, and good vibes flowed all night. Vinnie even personally brought our drinks out when things got a little backed up -- that's leadership right there. My garlic fettuccine pasta wasn't exactly what I ordered (came with chicken instead of mushrooms and was a little too al dente), but honestly? I couldn't even be mad. The night ended with double sundaes, candles glowing, and smiles all around. My birthday girl was beaming, and everyone went home with full bellies and happy hearts. Vinnie, you are a true ray of sunshine and a manager every restaurant dreams of having. Thank you for making things happen and for giving us a night to remember! read more

Came here on a Thursday night and it wasn't busy at all. It was really chilly in here, so bring a jacket just in case. We were seated right away which was nice because we didn't have to wait at all. Service was great, the waitress was really friendly and answered any questions we had about the menu. When we got our food, presentation was nice. I ordered the chicken lettuce wraps. It was bleh. The taste was gross. Chicken was chunky, and it was too saucy. I asked the waitress how come it tasted so different, and she said it's a new recipe. I don't like it. It was horrible. I like the old recipe they had. Anyway, my daughter said she liked the nugget. All in all, my family and I probably won't be coming back to CPK anymore because we were a bit disappointed with how the food tasted. It's not the same as it was from before. read more
