Pretty good pizza place all around. They offer some interesting specialty pizzas like the Mexican-style pizza (which features pineapple of all things, but it's surprisingly good and became a favorite of mine). Pretty fast turnaround on whole pizzas too.

Great Pizza spot where a Pizza Hut used to be. One day pizza hut, then empty, Then I look up and BAM! A King Kong pizza place appears. Had to try it.

Cool dude working the counter and some banging tunes on the overhead when we walked in. We will def be back, so glad that pizza the hut hit the road because now we can enjoy some truly delightful pizza. Give it a shot, tell...
