VALLEY FAIR CALIFORNIA PIZZA KITCHEN UNVEILS RECIPE FOR REIMAGINATION WITH COMPLETE REMODEL AND ENHANCED MENU OFFERINGS
A reimagined California Pizza Kitchen is reflected in every detail, from décor and design to new hand-tossed California-style pizzas, innovative cocktails and wine flights
California Pizza Kitchen (CPK), the authority on California-style pizza and an industry leader in creative dining, today announced the completion of its newly reimagined Santa Clara, Calif. location at Westfield Valley Fair. California Pizza Kitchen’s Recipe for Reimagination features a complete interior redesign, new hand-tossed California-style pizzas and innovative, California-themed cocktail and wine selections.
“We have been anxiously waiting to introduce our reimagined restaurant at the Valley Fair mall in Santa Clara, and we hope that it will inspire guests and remind them about what made them fall in love with California Pizza Kitchen in the first place. We are going back to our California roots to provide an authentic, elevated-yet-relaxed atmosphere for casual diners, families and foodies alike,” said California Pizza Kitchen CEO, G.J. Hart.
The 4,758 square foot Valley Fair restaurant now seats 171 guests in a redesigned communal space that has been developed with sustainability in mind. California’s environmental roots are evident in the use of unfinished, reclaimed wood both inside and outside of the restaurant, offering a casual but refined feel that is very warm in color. LED lighting is used throughout the space.
The updated 538 square foot patio now seats 35 people. California Pizza Kitchen’s traditional pizza counter, which seats 12, has been redesigned to make the hearth an even bigger focal point, giving guests the opportunity to interact with the Pizza Chefs and watch them as they hand-stretch and toss California Pizza Kitchen’s new hand-tossed pizza dough.
The reimagined menu features a wide selection of signature flatbreads with new ingredients and flavor combinations, including a new spicy fennel sausage, two different types of pepperoni, fresh mozzarella, hand crumbled wild Greek oregano, freshly torn basil and more. New appetizers and small plates include Spicy Chicken Tinga Quesadilla, White Corn Guacamole + Chips and Asparagus & Arugula Salad.
Guests can also enjoy an extensive selection of cocktails, including new signature drinks such as the “Coconut Kaffir Cooler,” made with Hangar 1 Mandarin Blossom Vodka, Perfect Purée Coconut and Kaffir Lime Leaves; and a “Strawberry Basil Martini” made with VeeV Acaí Spirit, Perfect Purée Strawberry and fresh agave sour. There are also three wine flight options, each with three, three-ounce glasses from the menu.

ReplyDeleteJoshua - Love your blog, but in this case I have to ask... Is this really newsworthy???
ReplyDeleteYou would be surprised. I recently looked at visitor stats and the two most read posts of all time were both for a new Chick-Fil-A =). I have a huge backlog of news to get through, I wish I had the time to schedule two or three posts a day.
DeleteJosh's blog, thus Josh put whatever the heck he feels like. Don't like it, don't read it :) Once in a while he puts up fast food post and everybody acts like the sky fell on them...
ReplyDeleteThe annoying part of the story, as all stories from Valley Fair, is the tagline "Valley Fair in Santa Clara, California". We all know that just a tiny portion of Valley Fair is in Santa Clara and the majority is in San Jose. Unfortunately, San Jose city leaders have allowed Santa Clara to take tile to the mall without even a peep of protest. This all stems from the Post Office being lazy and just calling the whole mall Santa Clara since the mail boxes happen to lie on the Santa Clara side near Macy's Men's store. This actually robs San Jose of millions of dollars in free positive PR. Any city in the world would kill to have the retailers now locating at Valley Fair: Prada, Luis Vuiton, etc. San Jose just doesn't get it. Any other city worth its salt would have fought to make sure the slight got corrected. No wonder people still don't know where San Jose is.
ReplyDeleteNice story but unfortunately these location photos are NOT from the Valley Fair location
