California Pizza Kitchen at Temecula

"I recently visited California Pizza Kitchen and had a mixed experience. While the food was decent, there were a few aspects that left me feeling underwhelmed. To start, the atmosphere of the restaurant was like a funeral home and unwelcoming. The decor was old but the staff was friendly. Moving on to the food, I ordered the BBQ chicken pizza and it was tasty but nothing extraordinary. The crust was thin and crispy, but the toppings were a bit lacking in flavor. I also tried the Thai Crunch Salad and while it was fresh, it was also quite bland."

"This was our first time coming here and it was pretty good. We didn't wait too long on a Saturday afternoon. The server was quick and friendly and the pizza was pretty good. Nothing spectacular but just good. We will be back to check out some more of what they have to offer."

"Always a good experience. If you need ranch dressing make sure to tell your server that you want it 1 and 2 make sure that you tell them it never comes out with the food, and voila it will come with the food. I've learned after many many attempts to get ranch with my pizza but it never came out without this trick..."

"So I had a horrible experience my last visit here. I was not greeted and I was not even served by the waitress. She ignored oir table and seemed like she was annoyed by us showing up there for lunch. I decided to go up and order from the bartender. The manager took notice, came over and gave me a free take n bake pizza coupon which I thought was very nice. I went to use it today and I was told I have to dine in, order a FULL entree, not a drink and then present the coupon for a take n bake pizza at home? Why would I want to dine eat, eat a full meal, then order a pizza to take home and eat?? This makes no sense at all. NO$ you get a bad review for bad service!! nice try trying to bribe me with a coupon so I'd keep quiet! I was right to leave a negative review a few weeks ago when I had horrible service but I thought this coupon was to make up for it and I was sadly mistaken. Do better be better you are rotten."

"I stopped by with my sister and sister in laws to just order dessert, but we ended up ordering small plates to eat as our dinner. I ordered the lemon raspberry cheesecake, and my sister ordered a salad that had chicken and avocado. They went light on the sauce, but she ordered extra on the side for herself. We split the salad in half. When you go to Cheesecake Factory, be ready because their portions are big. The server switched on us, maybe because of lunch, but the second server was friendly and took care of our table. I've tried other plates at Cheesecake Factory that I like, but this time, we got something smaller and healthy. P.S. give yourself a chance to try something new when you go there!"
