Current Events > California Pizza Kitchen is the best frozen pizza

(+) Yeah! (+)

But it is one of the worst names. I have never been to one of the restaurants but its a bad restaurant name too. The Sicilian, Margherita, Four Cheese and Uncured Pepperoni are all top notch. Regularly priced at $6.19 at my local target, I recommend you try one today.

Taste - 10/10
Value - 8/10
Selection - 8/10
Name - 2/10

The Margherita frozen pizza is truly delicious. yummmm

---

Fuck yea! It is the best.

the best frozen pizza is amy's organic margherita

---

Their BBQ chicken pizza is so good and I typically dont enjoy that kind of pizza.

I'm a Screamin' Sicilian kind of guy, but I'll have to give one of these a shot!

My roommate complained it had too many toppings. I wanted to kill him.

They are pretty good

Should have one at the restaurant tho

My favorite is the one that Schwan's sells (the regular pepperoni one)

thin crust is an abomination.

I can somewhat understand that for the pepperoni ones, but I mean, just pick them off and eat them while the rest of the pizza is cooking. I feel like the supreme Screamin' Sicilians are bomb as shit though. I usually get them when they're on sale and cut them in half while frozen so I can have a nice two slices with some hot sauce when I have a pizza craving. I don't fuck with the big pizza chains, I either have a good frozen one, or go balls deep with a $20 pie from a local place

---

Nah, they're okay but not even top 3.

Wild mike's is the best frozen pizza I've ever had. 2nd/3rd is probably Freschetta and Newman's in no particular order

I honestly really like Digiorno, but ONLY the garlic bread crust one, to me it doesn't even necessarily taste like garlic bread, just less crappy

The pizzeria style Digorno pizzas are pretty solid too for frozen pizzas. I hope you're doing well Insta :)

I disagree.

Never had their frozen pizza but the restaurant is God awful.

I've got fairly cheap taste, I love Jack's frozen pizzas. Doctor them up a bit with some canadian bacon and mushrooms with a sprinkle of extra cheese... smoked provolone if have any.

aldi brand pizza is all i need

---

I like their margherita pizzas. But I personally prefer Red Baron and D'Giorno's

---

The restaurant sucks

Restaurant's alright

Chicken tequila fettuccine is probably my favorite thing on the menu

I just had an original crust Screamin Sicilian Holy Pepperoni pizza.

Coming out of the box box the first thing that is obvious is the overwhelming amount of pepperoni. This pizza takes toppings seriously.

Oven preheated and pizza directly on the middle rack, the results were disappointing. On the California Pizza Kitchen, the thin crust leans into the crispy-ness. On the Screamin Sicilian, the classic error of overly done crust occurred. The abundant pepperoni and acceptable sauce and cheese couldnt overcome the hard tack as crust.

I did get a second one at the same time so I will do another review with a pan next time. But for now

Taste - 7/10
Value - 7/10 - at $5.98 marginally cheaper than the CPK but worst taste but about 33% more pizza.
Selection - 6/10 in my store but looks like potentially 9/10 overall. Very meat heavy though.
Box art - 10/10 mustachioed mouth looking like its eating the pizza. Love it.

overall - second tier za directly on the rack. On a pan will be tried later.
