California Pizza Kitchen

California Pizza Kitchen is yet another place that is the bomb.com! I am a HUGE fan of this place and want to take my husband here this weekend for our date night! 

The first restaurant opened in Beverly Hills back in 1985 and "it gave California a place in the pizza pantheon alongside Chicago and New York."

Last time I went there we ordered The Avocado Club Egg Rolls, The Original BBQ Chicken Pizza and Pepperoni and for dessert we tried their Belgian Chocolate Souffle Cake. Everything single thing we ordered was DELICIOUS and UNFORGETTABLE. My absolute favorite was their Avocado Egg Rolls. I'm even drooling right now, thinking about them. 

Hand-wrapped crispy wonton rolls filled with avocado, chicken, tomato, Monterey Jack and Nuke's applewood smoked bacon. Served with housemate ranchero sauce and herb ranch.

Check out these reviews from TripAdvisor!
"Loved this place! We were here for work but it is perfect for a romantic dinner. Don't plan on having any cell service though as it's up in the canyon on the side of the mountain. The service was really good. I had the steak and lobster which was really good!" 

"Now I believe the awards! We had a fabulous meal, the waitstaff were friendly, attentive, but not overbearing. Well worth the drive! Get the bison!"

"My wife and I are in our early thirties and loved this place! Very good food, excellent service, and a great view of the waterfall. I would definitely go back."

"Beautiful drive to historic log getaway. Delicious dinner in picturesque corner of dining room. A.special evening with great friends."


Relationship tip : Kindness in marriage goes a long way. Take a chore you know your spouse isn't very fond of.
