We asked to move tableau but we're then forgotten about for some time. Once we were remembered service was well and we enjoyed our meal. I had a cucumber mocktail and it was delicious.

We’ve been here a few times now but haven’t tried their pizzas but tried a lot of their sides, salads and appetisers. I love their spicy buffalo cauliflower (thoroughly satisfies my Indian taste buds), crispy artichoke salad, tomato basil bisque (half n half is a better option incase you want to try their pea barley soup which is great), Mexican street corn and szechwan chicken dumplings. We topped off our dinner with the warm butter cake which was great as a dessert. Love that the place is not that expensive considering its portions and tasty dishes. Its located in the prudential centre and is very much accessible for everyone shopping nearby. Definitely considering to revisit soon!

This was my first time eating at a California Pizza Kitchen. It was a great experience. Fast service and the pizza was really good!

Amazing place to grab some food while at the prudential center. Service was amazing and they were able to seat us very quickly. The place looked very nice and clean. We ordered the chicken barbecue pizza, shrimp scampi pizza, and a regular five cheese pizza. All of them tasted great. I would definitely recommend coming here if you are in the area. 9/10

We visited Boston for my 40th, and on our first night after arriving, unsure of our surroundings, we went to California Pizza Kitchen as it was very close to our hotel . This was the best decision we could have made - sure, the food was AMAZING (My Cauliflower base pizza is one of the finest Pizza's we ever had), but what made our visit here exceptional was the team working when we were there. 4 x different people made a point of welcoming us and talking to us about our visit, and they all seemed so warm and genuine, as a first impression of Boston they really showed the city in the best light! But it was Matt who stood out, I think he was the General Manager, but he was the nicest guy ever. Some of our choices were newer additions to the Menu, and he was keen to hear what we thought, once he realised we were visitors he gave us recommendations (despite us saying we would come back to CPK) and really felt like he took an interest in us . I cant remember last time we got service as good as we did in CPK, so thank you to the awesome team

We enjoyed the food, ambiance and service. Not an exceptional choice, but nothing disappointing. Grilled Salmon was good. Plenty of pizza and pasta choices. Kids choices are also good and nominal price. Lettuce wrap also worth trying, but felt salty to me.

The food was great, delicious, and the menu has many options Some beverages are refill The prices are a little high but taste worth it

Very delicious salads, fries and burgers very friendly staff! Restaurant is clean and nice!
