i love this place, super tiny and easy to miss but when you go inside it's an amazing atmosphere, it's quite literally like being in a whole other world. there's murals everywhere and alien themed merchandise and signs and posters, there's a terminator arcade machine, it's just sick and they put a lot of effort in. the owners and employees are super nice and chatty and they have great customer service. obviously what's also important is the food, and they do a good job there first and foremost. the menu isn't overcrowded or complicated and you can make your own pizza cones and your own UFOs. the food is warm, made with loveand overall just comforting. it's not super fancy it's just really solid and it does what it needs to, while also being fun to eat and look at it (I mean seriously it's pizza in a cone and a burger shaped like a flying saucer what's not to love). this is a fun place that's great for kids as well, with all the hallmarks of a good respectable family owned restaurant, and it's also in an awesome area. solid place for anyone anytime

Ot was my first time staying in portland, and we found this awesome place to eat. Definitely a cool vibe. The food was so good and delicious. The service was very nice. The people were very kind. The atmosphere was all vibes. I really enjoyed this place. Five out of five. Definitely would recommend this food place to eat at.

Great lunch spot for families with kids. The food is fun and really good. They have Spam!! Must try the Spam space burger. It's delicious. The homemade potato chips were excellent. The Hawaiin pizza cone was good. Love the decor, art, alien-themed trinkets, and free Mortal Kombat gaming. Not the greatest seating area but fun to-go. Food was packed excellently.

This unique burger spot serves burgers, pizza cones, and philipino street food.. the atmosphere is family oriented kid, friendly, cozy, and fun. I had the bbq ufo burger which is handmade, marinated, and cooked fresh. The bun soaks up the juice from the burger and captures all the flavor. Chicken skewers are authenticly cooked on wood grill and taste very good. Cooked perfectly. The pizza Cone is very tasty and has many traditional and unique combinations available. The customer service, value, and quality of food are all 5 star

Walked by COSMIC EATS when strollin’ thru Hawthorne. Love the themed menu, ambiance, restaurant decor and it’s ran by a nice family. They really stuck to the alien theme well. At $9-10 (at the time of this review), I think the food is priced right. I ordered the pizza cone which I consider more of a snack than a whole meal. It tasted good, but it’s not necessarily in the class of Apizza Scholls or Ken’s. I would come back for a snack if I’m in the area, but may not deliberately make the trip for it! Hoping for the most success for this family!

My partner was being a grump, so I took myself out for a day of errands and shopping. I came here because it’s a few doors down from my favorite shop and the novelty of the food, but I will come back for friendliness of this family owned business! The owner’s daughter is so adorable and sweet. This polite 7 year old told me about the history of the restaurant and showed me the beautiful mural of their old family dog, Daisy, in a space helmet while I waited for my order. Highly recommend checking this place out at least once! The novelty it cute, the food is super yummy, and the vibes are joyful and very welcoming.

This place is fun and bright! Little family business with big, fun vibes. Their burgers are amazing and cooked in a fun UFO patty style. Holds In all the good flavors. Burgers come with some damn fine house made kettle chips. (Frankly the chips alone are a spectacular reason to come.) Don't forget desert! Their space jelly is fun and tasty little pudding. The chocolate cake.... the only way to explain the absolute heady richness is the screen from the movie Easy A when she gets her lobster dinner. So if you want to come to a place that is fun, has a great theme, and just want to try something new, COME HERE! Even the most picky eater will have fun and find something tasty!
