Been here many times. Have gotten their gluten free pizza I think it tastes really good. Most likely it has been cross contaminated at this location. However I have not had a reaction.

I tried the gluten-free pizza, and their crust was the worst gluten-free crust I've ever eaten! It had the consistency of a soggy cracker. I ended up just eating the toppings off of the top. I was very disappointed because I enjoyed California Pizza Kitchen before I was diagnosed with Celiacs.

While their options for celiacs are limited, they are good. Their server was able to explain how they prepped the food separately and asked to understand more about the disease, as she said an increasing number of people needing GF options are coming into the restaurant.

We have eaten here multiple times, and always had a great meal and no issues. The caramelized peach salad is one of our favorites, must try!

Went here tonight and the chicken pizza was the best I have had since Coeliacs disease 5 years ago. Thin crispy base, yum. Waiter was knowledgeable and pizza came out with a gf flag on it. Wish I had a place like this in Australia.

This was my first time eating at CPK since my Celiac diagnosis. I was pleased to find a few pizzas with the blue triangle logo, which means the preparation process is validated by the GIG (Gluten Intolerance Group). I ordered the gf bbq chicken pizza, and it came with a gluten free flag in it. It was a thin crust and was unfortunately very burnt (they were extremely busy that night), but I felt fine after eating it and enjoyed the opportunity to eat a fresh pizza for once!
