California Pizza Kitchen

The pizza at CPK is better than you'll find at most chain restaurants, but of the two locations I've been to (this one and the one in Rio/Washingtonian Center in Gaithersburg), quality was very inconsistent and this Dupont Circle location came out the loser. Not to say the pizza's bad, it's just not "spectacular." Still, the staff are nice, the decor is nice, and there's plenty of variety in meal options.

I'd say the location (right next to the bustling Dupont Circle) and its atmosphere are the real draw of this establishment, meaning that if you're in the area and like pizza, it's worth a try. But don't make a special trip here.
