California Pizza Kitchen

Certified GF kitchen, very knowledgeable wait staff, every server I’ve spoken to there can tell you the exact procedure for keeping their food safe. Very impressed.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Staff was ok but the GF pizza is not included in the lunch menu combo. Found that 23$ was a bit pricey for a pizza ... but beside price the pizza was good.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I had the gluten free pepperoni and I was A-OK! I will eat here again!

Excellent GF pizza. I've had the BBQ and sausage, mushroom and pepperoni pizzas and have never had a problem. The sauce is good, not too much. The crust is has good taste, texture and is chewy. In speaking with the manager of this store I learned that California Pizza has a dedicated area for doing these GF pizzas. I haven't tried any of their other GF items. NOTE: I'm adding a PS to this review. Their GF pizza crust seems to have changed at some point toward the end of August 2017. I found that instead of it being the tasty crust I had previously enjoyed, the texture changed to where it tasted like many other not-so-great pizza crust taste...bland and a bit pasty. I noticed this twice on visits at the end of August and mid-September. This was quite disappointing, causing me to rethink my original rating of 5 stars and give it only 3.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

gf pizza crust and VERY aware of Celiac. Chef even called to ask if my online GF order was for Celiac because the Thai pizza on a gfcrust I ordered was just gluten friendly and could not guarantee no cross contamination. I changed it to another true gf pizza!!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

They totally have a gluten-free pizza that may change the recipe is delicious.

Only salad is gluten free and one salmon dish No gluten free pizza.

Go next door to Ted's Montanna grill. They have a huge gluten free menu. :-)

Absolutely best gluten free pizza I've had.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

This CPK was excellent today! Although they did not have gluten free pizza available, the manager came out to tell me that it would not be safe for someone with celiac today bc there was cross contamination with all the ingredients. As much as I wanted a gluten free pizza, I was very grateful that he was so cautious and knowledgeable.

They have 5 pizza options guaranteed to be celiac safe and they’re so tasty!

The manager Mike was fabulous. He explained to me in detail that they prep separately, use a clean pizza cutter, and place an aluminum cover over the pizza in the oven to prevent cross contamination. They have gluten free certified pizzas (triangles on menu). Mike was very patient and totally understood the importance.

The servers, cook, and hostess went above and beyond to try to help me find a safe way to eat here! I was hungry and desperate. They were not very knowledgeable about GF options or celiac disease, but after some back and forth and lots of checking with the cook, they made me a cheese pizza on cauliflower crust. Precautions taken: hand washing, changed gloves, made my pizza on a separate pan so it never touched the prep surfaces. They also put down some parchment paper in the oven underneath my pizza since the oven often gets flour on it from other pizzas. Not the most ideal meal for safety, but I was starving and they were willing to listen and try to help which I appreciated!

Very good salads and very good GF pizza. Thin crust of course, but texture was great. We got the half size salads BTW. The full size are huge.

Solid choice. No gluten issues. My food came out separate and marked. I have eaten at different locations so I was not worried about cross contamination but some people may be concerned
