We enjoyed our meal here. The food was good overall, but the service was next-level. Our server was fantastic! I ordered the burger after they had no bread so I couldn't order the club sandwich, and when the burger came it had no mustard on it (because they normally do a "secret sauce"). I asked the server for some and they didn't have any, so do you know what she did? She went over to Habit Burger to get some mustard! How amazing is that? I have to deduct an overall star though for the prices: they are outrageous, even by airport standards. $20 for a small 10" pizza? Our bill for three entrees, one side salad, and four pops was $102...!?! Part of that is the mandatory 20% service charge for all visits, no matter how small the party. I haven't seen that before, and given the hourly wage in California is probably decent, it seems a bit much to make 20% mandatory. The server though was wonderful again, she skipped past the extra tip prompt (yes, they ask for a tip beyond the 20%).

I ate st the Airport location in LAX it was very clean and organized. The cashier was very polite and my food came out fast. I had the Crispy Brioche French Toast when I tell you it was amazing. Did know what to expect reading the menu but I took a gamble and baby it paid off. I recommend getting extra yogurt sauce on it and skip the syrup it doesn't need it. I definitely will return to CPK.

Shockingly fresh and delicious. We had low expectations based on the reviews but everything was fantastic. Thanks Sergio for great service and big smiles. Guacamole was exceptional and we reordered because it was so good. We had the chopped bbq chicken salad with added fresh avocados. I ordered mine with grilled chicken because I’m not a fan of bbq. They gladly accommodated my request.
