California Pizza Kitchen at Tarzana offers a generally enjoyable dining experience. The food is mostly tasty, though the avocado and chips dish is primarily corn-based. The service is great, with a particularly hospitable manager. The pizzas are good but may be pricey for the portion size. The restaurant and restrooms are clean, and it is child-friendly with a dedicated menu. Recently, customers appreciated the friendly and polite waiter, Kyle, who provided a relaxed atmosphere, especially during lunch. The lunch menu offers good value with options like vegan barley pea soup, Asian salad without chicken, tortilla soup, and half turkey and brie sandwich on a soft large roll. All the food was described as delicious and a true bargain. The staff, including Kyle, is attentive and friendly, with excellent service that allows guests to enjoy conversations without interruption. Parking is limited at lunchtime, but street parking is nearby, with some visitors finding parking right in front on Ventura Blvd. This restaurant is a classic California cafe with stone hearth oven pizza, large salads, and LA-style pastas. It is a familiar spot for locals, with staff who recognize regular customers and their favorite orders. The restaurant has modernized over time and remains a popular, accessible place with ample handicapped access. The menu includes drinks, salads, and pizzas, with options for vegetarians. Despite some billing mix-ups, customers find the experience enjoyable and appreciate the friendly service and quality food.
