California Pizza Kitchen started in Beverly Hills in 1985 with thin-crust pizzas and global toppings. At the Las Vegas Town Square location, the barbecue chicken pizza is sweet and smoky, the spinach artichoke dip is excellent, and the buffalo cauliflower is just okay.
Craving creative pizza in Vegas? California Pizza Kitchen delivers, literally and figuratively. This iconic brand started in Beverly Hills back in 1985 and helped kick off the California-style pizza trend, which is thin crusts, global flavors, and unexpected toppings. There are several CPK locations around Las Vegas, including this one at Town Square, which is perfect for an after-meal stroll while airliners cruise loudly overhead. I went classic with a spicy pepperoni, then dove into their famous barbecue chicken pizza, which is sweet, smoky, and topped with red onions fresh cilantro. The spinach artichoke dip honestly deserves its own fan club, it's that good. The spicy buffalo cauliflower bites are okay, but nothing to write home about. They also serve draft beer if you're into that. I personally have had enough beer for 3 lifetimes. The vibe is laid-back and modern, and their menu has options for everyone— gluten-free, vegetarian, and especially the pizza obsessed. Follow for more tasty Vegas eats and other random adventures.
