California Pizza Kitchen at Valley Fair in Santa Clara

Tips: Strongly recommend taking advantage of their happy hours (M-F 3-5PM). They have a big enough menu for happy hours that you can choose from, makes your meal a lot more affordable.Ive come here about 4 times now. I like the restaurant seating and decor, spacious enough between tables, and its clean.Service has always been excellent in my visits, especially the last visit. The waiter was very attentive, friendly, helpful and polite. I have no complaints.These are what Ive had:- Chicken BBQ pizza: delicious, like the crust. I dont like the raw shallots though so Ill ask them to remove shallots- Korean beef pizza: just okay. I wont order again- Mexican corn: sooo delicious with the butter toasted bread- Cocktails: I like it. Good quality alcohol- Kungpao spaghetti: loved it. Didnt expect it to be actually good

Always crowded and long wait line because its in the valley fairmall. We always go book 1 hr 15 mins before to get the table. They call you when the table is ready so meanwhile you can continue shopping. The food is awesome and fresh. I have been quite a few times and the service has always been good but the last time we did not have a good experience with the service, had to keep asking to give us cutlery so that we can eat. Lot of options for vegetarians too. We had spicy cauliflower, Mexican Street corn, spicy Chipotle chicken without chicken and all were delicious. It might be bit spicy for who dont eat lot of spice. Overall good experience.

We had visited the restaurant with hopes of indulging in the delicious Toastada pizza, only to discover that it had been removed from the menu. We were incredibly disappointed by this news, as we had a deep affection for that particular pizza and its absence left us feeling quite melancholic.After spending the entire day at Raging Water Park, hunger pangs struck us hard. We arrived at the restaurant at around 6:00 PM on July 4th, and although it was mostly empty, we still had to endure a 15-minute wait before being seated. Once seated, it took an additional 15-20 minutes to place our order, and we anxiously awaited the arrival of our pizza, which took another 20-25 minutes.While we waited, the staff kindly served us warm bread accompanied by a delightful olive oil dip that was absolutely scrumptious.The prolonged waiting time not only dampened our spirits but also intensified our sadness over the absence of the Toastada pizza. Nonetheless, we decided to order the California veggie pizza, wild mushrooms pizza, Margarita pizza, and Mac n cheese. These pizzas turned out to be excellent in taste, but the longing for the Toastada pizza persisted. We earnestly request the restaurant to bring it back.To add to our disappointment, we had to wait another 15-20 minutes after requesting the bill. Despite these hiccups, we must emphasize that we genuinely appreciate CPK, and we kindly urge them to reintroduce the Toastada pizza while also striving for faster service.

Very reasonable lunch menu starting at $8.99 for soup and salad or a few dollars more for a choice of two that also includes pizza, sandwiches and pasta as the options. I went for the pizza and salad combo and chose the Thai chicken pizza on a cauliflower crust (extra charge) and a chopped BBQ chicken salad. Both were prepared well and were the perfect size for lunch. Two hour free parking at the garage definitely makes this an affordable lunch spot!

Everything seen here was delicious!!Rolls were a bit cold . I should’ve asked for the rolls to come out prior to the main entrées. Pasta was a bit on the small side. It looks something like a child would finish and still be hungry which is why I cannot give it five stars.

While the place in itself is nice, but the food and service is pretty average or below average. To begin in.1. Service is delayed. So much so that the drinks were served towards the end of the Meal after reminding.2. The dishes in themselves were not cooked to required needs there was this raw smell lingering3. The only attention the staff pays is when you ask for bill.

It is located in the mall. Convenient location. Waiting wasnt long either. Standard menu. Great for families.

The Bolognese Spaghetti and Five Cheese & Fresh Tomato pizza was great and service were kind and patient. One of my favorite restaurants in California.

I always come here for the chicken tequila fettuccine and it’s delicious don’t get me wrong BUT for some reason the pasta at this specific location tastes undercooked and way too oily.I did like the avocado club eggroll’s, however I would recommend ordering in a big group and eating just one to two as it’s way too oily to eat more than that and it gets heavy.the dynamite shrimp was good as well!overall, I would go back I would probably go in a group bc the portions are huge and the food gets heavy

Firstly, there are no online reservations, only walk-ins. We had to wait for 40+ min to get a table for 8. Good thing is you get a message few min before your table is ready. Can hangout in the mall meanwhile.Coming to the food, here you go1. Complementary Bread - Little stretchy but tasted good. 👍🏼2. Spinach Artichoke Dip - Tasty 👍🏼3. Spicy Honey Bee Focaccia - Definitely not spicy, it’s sweet. 👎🏼 Also, it consists of meat. Waiter should have mentioned that when we ordered all others veggie or vegan. Order was taken in hurry as it was almost kitchen closing time.4. Spicy Buffalo Cauliflower - Spicy and flavorful. Go for it. 👍🏼5. Mexican Sweet Corn - 👍🏼6. Thai Chicken Pizza (Vegan) - Dried up, didn’t get the taste of Thai. 👎🏼7. Kung Pao Spaghetti - Super greasy but tasted good 👎🏼8. Cauliflower Veggie Pizza - Crust is burnt, just made us feel if it’s really California Pizza Kitchen 👎🏼👎🏼9. Butter Cake - Best one for the night. Must try. 👍🏼👍🏼 Waiter also added the candle as requested for Father’s Day Celebration.10. Dessert Pear Lemonade - 👍🏼11. Fresh Strawberry Mangoes Cooler - 👍🏼12. Soup Bowl Dakota Pea - No salt and pepper - BlandElizabeth was great in the service but food wasn’t. Not sure if we’ll return back to this chain after constant failures.
