On May 15, California Pizza Kitchen (CPK) rolled out a brand new look and some tantalizing new dishes and cocktails that further expand on its brand that is well known for its quality pizzas, entrees, salads and desserts. The Biltmore CPK was chosen as the first Arizona location to get the "restaurant facelift." The new look is highlighted by warm woods and an upscale-yet-rustic feel that features a bright open concept kitchen showcasing the staff who is always hard at work. Systematically, the new CPK look and menu will be introduced at all Arizona locations in the coming months.
The new CPK menu offers unique and seasonal flavor combinations in salads, pizzas, appetizers and entrees. New dishes include the Harvest Kale Salad, Sunnyside Up Bacon + Potato Pizza and distinctly upscale options like Fire-Grilled Ribeye and Hearth-Roasted Halibut. More than 80 Lunch Duos offer affordable made-to-order combinations. For those with specific dietary restrictions, CPK also has options that are under 650 calories, vegetarian/vegan, or gluten free. No matter who is dining in your group-there will be something delicious and appealing for every flavor palate.
Let's take a look at some of the new entrees and drinks that are on the new CPK menu!
Other Drink Favorites included the California Crush -Absolut Mandrin, Absolut Citron, Muddled Mint with Fresh Orange and Lemon. This is about as summertime as you can get. Can I hire the bartender to come make this drink for me at home? And the Honeybee Lemonade - Jim Beam Honey and Fresh Lemonade. This is a refreshing drink with a fun little "sting." This is a nice drink that will tantalize your naughty side.
