Not great... but good enough to take care of a craving.
Decent seating... I thought a bit smallish on the portions, and the prices weren't that great either. The sweet tea was really good though.
Some of the reviews mentioned that there wasn't very much seating, but that didn't seem to be a problem at all.
I'm glad there's a place like this in decent driving distance, I'm hoping the next experience will be a bit better.

Crap.... this place will make me spend a chunk of change.... new snow jacket, new snow pants... other stuff... wife spent as much as I did and got more pieces.... and it was still a huge chunk of money.
Yes.... got in through a relative and prices were super low.... or for my cheapness, 2x the value based on what I would otherwise be willing to spend.
The staff is very good and friendly. parking was plentiful... prices were... outrageous, and the products are... well we'll see, but they back their stuff pretty strong so...
I'll likely be going back seasonally to see what kinda new stuff they have.

A cute little place... good service.. they got my order wrong the first time... but were pretty prompt with the replacement.
Portion was good, and so was the flavor/taste.
I don't often have the opportunity to go to places like this.... but maybe I will again next time!!!

Obviously one of the better places for bfast on Solano as this place was busier than the rest of the places that we drove past.
Good bacon, interesting french toast, a breakfast sandwhich like I've never had before.... all adds up to really good food. It's a good thing a place like this isn't closer to home... I'd end up gaining even more weight.
I have a good place to go in the area now. One that has some seating, can handle parties larger than 2, and doesn't give you attitude.

On the day before new years eve.... this place was dead... Walked up 5 minutes before showtime... slid my card into the automated ticket thing, and walked right in.
Concessions as always were madly over priced, but the service was good.
Sound was overblown, but I guess that's what everyone pays for these days.....

The ask was simple and I was the only one in the restaurant.... carne asada burrito, cheese quesidilla...
It was for later when we were on the plane home and I didn't want to pay 2x as much for half the taste to some mass chain in the airport.
They made it quick, on the plane it was tasty, and just the right portion for all 3 of us for a good meal where we didn't feel stuffed.
I'm not sure if this is THE place to go to, but it was pretty good for just a quick stop on the way to the airport.

Call it 3 stars, striving to be 4.
Came here for lunch with some work buddies and had a pretty good time. The cobb salad that I had was actually quite tasty... good portion... not too much, and the bits were all pretty good too.
The service was only soso, and the attempts of one of my coworkers for something specific and reasonable seemed to drag on forever until we were almost done.
Good place... I'd like to go back... I'd like to call it a 4... but.... hopefully next time?

No... I'm not a fan of this place... haven't been for quite a while. Maybe I just order the wrong stuff, but the other stuff seems so pricey for being so lame.
I ordered the mac&cheese which were basically starch balls deep fried, and then apparently left to cool so they were only lukewarm and hard to cut through... pretty lame. The portion of the chips and white corn and something else I had were really measly... I mean comon.. .chips? and some white corn salsa... are you really going to make extra margin on chips and salsa?
To be clear, in order for CPK to be my choice of location, it means that we're in some pretty dire straits.

drove by the old location and was... doh!!!
but the new location is much better... good parking. Got in, got out, got back to business... I just wish those balls that I bought were still in my bag ready to be used instead of contributed to the environment over the last couple courses I played at....
I'll have to work on that. but at least I didn't pay for the last couple rounds I played, so balls was the fee for harding park and the ocean course.

Went there the other day just before it got really busy.... bad idea...
at at our table were 2 orders of ramen and one order of donburri.... the don buri came WELL ahead of the first ramen order, and the other ramen order took another 10 minutes.
I had tempura which was pretty horrible, and the ramen was pretty bad... not only poorly cooked, but the noodles were pretty horrific too... I wasn't about to try the broth.
My other coworkers ramen came really late... later in fact than other people who came after us had gotten their noodles.
Yeah.. I'll not be coming back any time soon.
