CPA is a great local eatery. The pizza special for 2 is our favorite. Yummy thin crust, If you love beef sandwiches, Theirs is a winner. I order the Beef with mozzarella cheese dry and dipping juice on the side ... you get the sandwich with the bread roll toasted to perfection. Randy is a great server !

Yes this pizza rocks. Really flavorful, awesome crust, good sauce and they use enough. Extensive menu with plenty of great italian food plus a killer burger too. I am a pizza expert and in fact own a pizza place and this is as good as mine, yes I eat at other pizza joints too because I love pizza. And in like to spread the love. My fave in the city is Marie's on Lawrence but that is 70's tavern style not the same quality (and quantity) as this. Get some:)

Their Pizza is the best, I have yet to have better in the area. Really good! However since their move to the new location their prices have gone up. $40.00 for a large pizza with 2 meats and 2 veggies is a bit excessive.

The pizza is good, but since they changed locations, they no longer have the buffet. It was a great salad and pizza buffet where they asked you when you came in what kind of pizza you would like to have them put out on the buffet.

Normally we order carryout from this place but decided to eat in this time. The dining area is small with 4 booths and a handful of tables but it is clean. There was only one waitress for the dining room, but it wasn't a big deal since it wasn't busy. We decided to order pizza (one cheese and one sausage, onion, jalapeno). Pizza came out after a reasonable wait time and tasted great. The crust was crisp, the sauce flavorful, and the toppings plenty. No one left hungry and we even had leftovers which tasted even better ... read more

I just moved into the area and ordered my first Pizza from CPA, I have to say i will be ordering again. Online ordering is the best way to go, I tried to call it in but had to repeat my order too many times over the phone and was put on hold several times. Other than that the pizza was as ordered and tasted great. Looking forward to trying other items in the future

I just want to let everyone know that what those other people said is a down right lie!!! My family and I have been going to CPA since they have opened, I have never went there and there was no lettuce in the bowl or no sauces on the sandwiches. Everything I have ever had was great!. What did you walk in when it was just about ready to close but they were still nice enough to serve you lol. Good, stay away we do not want people who lie about a nice place like CPA. Have a nice day!

I've been ordering pizza from here for years. Still the best place in town to get pizza! Their wings are also on point. The buffet doesn't have much to offer, so I suggest you stick with carry out.
