California Pizza Kitchen at Cherry Creek

Usually I don't do chains but I've never been to a CPK before.
It's basically Itlain with pasta, salads, fancy cocktails and California style pizza.
Is there even such a thing? Well, once you see it, you will be convinced.
The Avocado club roll is not sushi, it's an egg roll but from the pic you can see why it's Californian.
There are avocado slices, chicken, bacon bits and a lovely taste wrapped in a deep fried won ton skin.
And the pizza is all about California, a salad on a crispy cauliflower crust.
They were both delicious and Benjamin was friendly, kept my Diet Coke filled, and checked in to make sure we were fine.
And they started off with sourdough bread and olive oil while we perused the menu.
There was enough that we had to bring half of dinner home.
It was definitely worth going.

Very delicious food and having a gluten-free clear signs on the menu is a plus.
You can also order some pizza as gluten-free option.
The salmon was made to perfection, juicy and tasty.
The only downside is they a bit overpriced.

What can I say.
The service is great, the food is scrumptious, the GM walks by and ask how you’re enjoying things, which call me old school but that kind of touch personalizes the culinary experience.
If you’ve never been or only had their frozen pizzas from the frozen aisle or only do pick up well allow yourself to be transported into serenity of the friendly staff, savor the delicious, soft, pillowy texture of their succulent butter cake.
I’m not a whip cream eater (shocking I know) but I had my butter cake with all the fixins bc you only live once and now that is the only way I’ll eat their butter cake, and the avocado chicken bacon egg rolls are what you’d find on your plate in heaven with what looks like house made ranch and ranchito (a perfect amount of small heat) should be sold in stores.
I cannot wait to try other things if I can stop eating the healthy servings of butter cake and the healthy serving of egg rolls.
Don’t forget to join their membership, I’ll be back to get my free appetizer w/a entree… worth it.
