California Pizza Kitchen

I was put off my the menu and lack of gf options but the waiter assured me that they would take cross contamination precautions. I ended up with a lovely salad and rather tasty cauliflower crust chicken bbq pizza! Enough for next day lunch too! Will definetly go back and no symptoms.

My daughter went here for a school lunch. She doesn’t like pizza so I was worried but she ordered the gf salmon, told them of her allergy. She came home saying it was really good and she did not get sick at all. We have ordered the pizza online and it is always labeled and taped for safety.

CPK is certified by GIG and every employee takes a course on gluten free food preparation and have to pass an exam. They have a separate kitchen in each location with only dedicated gf items, even so far as having a filtration system so gluten flour doesn't come through the vents. I've eaten at 10+ locations, including this one, and never been sick. I've always had a good experience here!

Order a traditional cheese pizza on their gluten-free cauliflower crust. Pizza came out and looked delicious. I tried to cut a small bite off of a slice and it was very hard. I ate one bit and it was so dry and rough that it scraped my throat all the way down. Manager took the price off our bill and gave me a gift card for a return visit. Not sure if I’ll give it another try. So disappointed!

Perfect gf pizza. Delicious and staff was knowledgeable and helpful and friendly. Will definitely be back!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

My pizza came in it's own separate bag from the rest of the non-gf take-out order. No reaction and yummmmm!!!!

Great GF pizza!

GIG certified and delicious! When I ordered, she asked if I had an allergy or celiac disease so they could take good care. Manager brought my pizza out.

Went here tonight and the chicken pizza was the best I have had since Coeliacs disease 5 years ago. Thin crispy base, yum. Waiter was knowledgeable and pizza came out with a gf flag on it. Wish I had a place like this in Australia.

This was my first time eating at CPK since my Celiac diagnosis. I was pleased to find a few pizzas with the blue triangle logo, which means the preparation process is validated by the GIG (Gluten Intolerance Group). I ordered the gf bbq chicken pizza, and it came with a gluten free flag in it. It was a thin crust and was unfortunately very burnt (they were extremely busy that night), but I felt fine after eating it and enjoyed the opportunity to eat a fresh pizza for once!
