We consider the three Hawaii outposts of California Pizza Kitchen not pizzerias but restaurants, sort of updated family restaurants. The most popular items on the menu are the individual wood-fired California-style pizzas---from barbecued chicken to shrimp and pesto. CPK is hugely popular in Hawaii for a simple reason---it has the best moderately priced food in town, not just pizzas, but wonderful Provençal salads, potato soup with carmelized leeks, garlicky hummus. There’s healthy fare, including cheeseless pizza. Kids get their own menu selection and crayons to boot. For adults, there’s a limited but adequate selection of California wine. These places get our vote for the best place to dine with children in Honolulu. The Ala Moana location has a stunning view of the yacht harbor and the ocean beyond. Also located at Kahala Mall, 4211 Waialae Ave., Honolulu, 808, 737-9446; and Pearlridge Center, 98-1005 Moanalua Rd., Aiea, 808-487-7741.
