Stealing a quote from Thomas S on this one: "CPK. Creative. Pizzas. Kinda."
When CPK was first introduced, it was so popular... I'd even go so far as to call it a chain that was worth a visit every now and then... Unfortunately, it's gone down hill since then.
It now seems overpriced and service is shotty. Although the food is decent, there are so many other places to go...
My most recent visit was to this location (the one at Desert Ridge). I met a friend for lunch and our waiter was nice but not very attentive. We could've used drink refills on several occasions and our food seemed to take forever to arrive. We both ordered the grilled veggie salad. I added shrimp to mine and Tom added salmon to his. He complained about the amount of salmon in his salad, but my shrimp was decent. We went with the full portion instead of the lunch portion - good thing because we both cleaned our plates. When it was time to pay, our waiter once again seemed to take forever!
All in all, this is a consistent chain pizza place - most anyone will find something to enjoy on their large menu, but it is what it is... a chain. Nothing more, nothing less.
