Walked into a busy, hot and crowded room that smelt like absolute dough heaven. I've been trying my best to cut out gluten and cheese from my diet and saw online that they had vegan pizza! To my surprise they had a whole vegan menu...amazing. I also ordered one of their many non-alcoholic options- a Riesling wine, really hit the spot. I had a lovely server who took the time out of very busy wave (not to mention only 2 people on the floor) to describe the whole menu to me, he was very kind and attentive. The pizza shown in the picture is a vegan BBQ smoke show, with their authentic Italian flour dough- although not gluten free (I'm not a fan of cauliflower dough) i left not feeling 'sick' or bloated. I was beyond happy that the pizza wasn't lacking in flavor or looks, very well done. If i could have devoured my pizza in one sitting i would have, but i had to bring it home. The space was hot and muggy but sometimes that's where a lotttt of magic happens! First impression was a hit, will definitely be back to test it out again!

This was my sister's first job in high school, and my first job (in my 20s). Yeah, I'm a late bloomer, and maybe a little lazy. Even though I've eaten a shitload of this pizza for the last 10 years I still love it. I usually order the Hawaiian pizza because my Mom likes it. When my guinea pig was still alive even he liked Killer Pizza. It was sort of gross watching our small, furry pet eat canadian bacon, but at the time I figured guinea pigs must suffer worse forms of torture. The hot wings are good. One time I puked em up by accident (was choking and up they came without warning)- all over my patio! They smelled just like they did going down, and I think they were still hot. Franks Red Hot Sauce is the bomb, I keep a bottle with me wherever I go. Dinner salads=dank. For under five dollars you get a great portion and the homemade ranch is tasty. read more

I decided to try Killer Pizza From Mars after hearing mixed reviews, and overall it was a decent experience. The atmosphere is definitely fun and different--the space theme gives it personality and makes it a cool spot to hang out. The pizza was good, but not amazing. The crust had a nice texture, though some slices felt a little heavier on the cheese than expected. The flavor was solid, just not something that really stood out compared to other local pizza spots. Service was okay--nothing bad, but not particularly memorable either. Overall, it's a decent place if you're in the mood for pizza and want a fun environment. Not my top choice, but I'd consider giving it another try. read more

Food was OK, beer selection was average. The line was long for ordering, only one register was open for dinner on a Sunday. Everyone working there seemed over whelmed, maybe they were short staffed. Line for the single soda fountain was quite long at times, they have one of those touch screen multi soda dispensers but most of the flavors we went for were unavailable. Change machine for the arcade was broken, cashier had no quarters so all the video games were off limits, there was talk of a laundromat somewhere in the vicinity that had a working change machine but nobody seemed to want to make the trek. Probably would not return on my own volition. read more

I have been a customer at KPFM even before they were at this current location and am considered a regular. The place is great for families with kids, the pizza is delicious and the idea / name has always been a creative asset. I wish they hadn't ever moved from the first location but the current location can accomodate more people. It's pretty much community style eating for large parties, if you're looking for an intimate date setting then keep moving. It's a great place to have pizza and some beers, what else is there? I also wish they still delivered! read more

I happen to find this place since my bank is right across the parking lot. My son(6yrs) my boyfriend(32yrs) and myself(26yrs) all walked in for dinner not knowing what to expect. My son loved it from the moment we walked up to the display window outside. the food was good & the service was awesome. There are a few little video games in a cornner and there are a few tvs to watch games. I plan on heading down there for the next chargers game, because they have some really great deals while the game is on. We loved it and any other young family will to. read more

Pizza was good. Scene was odd. Maybe that is what they were going for. Sauce was not great so that was a bit dissappointing. The reason I am giving it a three instead of a four is because the service was lackluster and I was hoping for more of a positive vibe when I went in there. Pizza is to generic to have average service. If you like Alien theme you will dig this place. read more

I did see the review about the IG food influencer 'eatingoceanside' being refused service when wanting to buy a slice, (looked up the post) and thought that was pretty wrong. He wasn't being belligerent or acting "weird" and if the worker was serving other drunk customers, I wonder what the issue really was??? He has supported the business. He's just trying to buy a slice like everyone else there.
