Good place to buffet. It had a good ambience compared to zaza bazaar but the food variety is less comparitvely. Lovely hosts n you have teppanyaki which is not in most of the restaurants that I have been. You can try once I loved the deserts n roasted duck n mocktail Please find the list of menus available here Asian dishes China’s cuisine can be broken up into roughly eight regions: Cantonese, Sichuan, Anhui, Shandong, Fujian, Jiangsu, Hunan, Zhejiang. Tour the Asian continent with our hand-picked tasters of the region’s most authentic dishes, enjoy Mongolian stir-fried lamb or make up your own crispy duck rolls by assembling freshly roasted duck, spring onion, cucumber and plum sauce. Teppanyaki dishes The word teppanyaki is derived from the Japanese words teppan (which means iron plate) and yaki (which means grilled, broiled, or pan-fried). Choose from fresh salmon, scallops, steak, or juicy tiger prawns and watch as COSMO’s talented chefs cook it in front of you on an iron griddle to lock in the flavour. Indian spicy dishes Spice it up with a choice of South-East Asian favourites, from authentic Kashmiri lamb and crispy pakora to creamy chicken tikka masala drizzled with yogurt and an aromatic saag aloo. Mop up the delicious sauces with fluffy naan and load your plate up with a selection of pickles and chutneys. COSMO’s talented chefs lay on a full Indian banquet, with dishes prepared in small batches that are constantly replenished. Continental dishes The modern pizza was invented in Naples and was sold from open-air stands, before being introduced to the world by Italian immigrants. With favourites like spaghetti and meatballs and a huge range of vegetarian options, there’s something for everyone. Don’t leave without trying COSMO’s authentic pizzas either, which are expertly cooked in wood-fired ovens Tasting dishes The great thing about small plates is that you get to try a little bit of everything without getting too full. Our tasting kitchen is a tour de force of the world’s most popular dishes, from mini burgers and chilli con carne to small portions of Greek moussaka and a comforting shepherd’s pie. Why not pick a few to share or choose one as a starter? Carvery dishes There are few things in life more comforting and British than a full roast dinner. Choose between expertly roasted turkey, lamb or beef with lashings of gravy, a choice of vegetables, fluffy Yorkshire puddings and the crowning glory of any roast dinner: roast potatoes. Not just for Sunday, COSMO’s roast dinner is fast becoming a week-long institution. Deli dishes The deli as we know it was born in Germany in 1700s, before spreading to America. The word delicatessen originates from the Latin delicatus, meaning “delightful, pleasing”. From slivers of charcuterie and fresh salads to juicy olives and an assortment of cheeses, stop by our deli counter to enjoy a taste of the Med Deserts Every year, 14 October marks National Dessert Day. But we wouldn’t suggest limiting indulging in dessert to just one day of the year, of course. From strawberry cheesecake to traditional Italian tiramisu, COSMO’s patisserie chefs whip up a tempting array of homemade, bite-sized cakes so you can have a taste of everything. With sweets aplenty, fresh fruit, a gelato counter and a chocolate fountain for you to dip marshmallows into, the sweet-toothed will be spoiled for choice. Drinks From classic cocktails and a host of spirits to a carefully chosen selection of wine, beer and ale, our drinks menu is varied – and global. Enjoy a tipple with your meal or quench your thirst with free refills of your favourite soft drinks. To cap things off nicely, there's freshly brewed tea, coffee or indulgent hot chocolate.

Took my 2 boys & their friends for their meal. I wasn’t sure what to expect, but when we got there I found the staff were very friendly, welcoming & the restaurant was clean & spacious. We wanted to separate the group (teenagers wanted to sit separately) the staff were able to accommodate this for us. Once seated we paid for our bottomless meals & unlimited refills soft drinks all at once (no need to sit around waiting to pay at the end) then headed to the all you can eat mixed Buffett🤪🤗There was plenty of different continental dishes to choose from (I suggest taking your time & choosing a bit at a time to start with) the boys went crazy, I took my time & tried a little bit of most things. The food was kept very fresh & kept well topped up, the queue to get the food wasn’t long & the different selections of food & dessert were to die for (haven’t had banana & custard since school😍). The bookings are 2hr time slots but the staff were that friendly we could have stayed longer, but the boys were so filled up within 1 1/2hrs we sat for a bit then left. Overall we would rate this a good couple of ours with some delicious fresh food, friendly, comfortable atmosphere & good customer service. Thank you to all the staff, especially the kitchen staff who kept the food coming👏🤗we’ll definitely be back again soon.

I was really looking forward to this as someone on here wrote „best cosmo ever“. So I wouldn’t say high expectations, but at least that I’d enjoy it. However, it was sadly quite disappointing. The food was overcooked and dry (which makes sense when they have been around for some time). The sushi was... well I wouldn’t call it sushi. There was no tuna and salmon rolls. Only vegetable, egg and crab imitation meat rolls. The mussels in the Tom kha gai soup started decomposing themselves. I loaded some rice on my plate and bit into what felt like rocks, but it was dried up rice. So apparently they just dumped new rice on old one. I told the waiter and he told the cook who removed the rice. So at least they did something about it and I spared other customers of this unnecessary experience. The Indian selection was underwhelming. Their mushroom had a suspicious color and just tasted very mushy. The Italian was easy to miss as it was just a little section. The pasta didn’t look appetizing, so I didn’t try. The Chinese / south East Asian was huge, but its selection didn’t catch my selection and therefore I didn’t try everything. Apart from roast and potatoes dishes, I didn’t find anything English in there. I read shepherds pie on their website. Where was it? I enjoyed their teppanyaki. The salmon was very tasty and watching the cook was ok. Maybe some find it fascinating. (At other restaurants you just load everything on a plate, including vegetables and sauces, give it to the cook with a number plate and it gets delivered to your table. Here you can only choose 2 meats to be cooked). Their fried food was eatable such as lemon chicken stripes. I also took some sea food as I like them. Actually I tried here and there, but actually none of the foods stick to my mind and I can’t recall what I actually ate (we just went yesterday) Their dessert selection was good. I liked that you pick ice cream individually packed, as it can be unhygienic to scoop it yourself and others. The black and white chocolate fountains are an eye catch. You can dunk marshmallows on sticks in it. There is candy for decoration, cakes and 4 kinda of fruits. I found the pineapple cake weird as it’s pineapple with a layer of something I couldn’t figure out what it was. I didn’t like that some of the desserts (tiramisu, Eton mess) were in plastic cups. Glas would be a better option. The plastic decoration fruits were confusing. Reminded me of kindergarten where you can play and sell fruit market. I’m pretty sure another decoration would fit better. I ordered refillable drinks, but somehow always tasted a hint of soap. So all in all is Cosmo is just a bigger all you can eat Chinese buffet with a few non-Asian dishes. As the evening proceeded, more and more guests came. I had more to choose from, but somehow I didn’t try new things although I love that. So to me, a normal Chinese all you can eat restaurant does the trick too. And I really missed the sushi here! I’d give it 3 stars, if I was willing to come back. I mean this is a good compromise if you can’t decide where to eat, but the quality is just so low and I wouldn’t know which food I’d pick to fill my stomach. Also it’s quite pricey. One star for desserts, another for acting on my complaint. Anyhow, food didn’t stand out and it was just bad. I really wonder how come cosmo got so many good reviews. Is it just me? Or did they only have bad cooks for that day?

It was my friend’s birthday and we thought to make it memorable, filled with loads of food and after food, fun in the city center I mean, a buffet, why not? We had a good time but the ‘supervisor’ that day, he was the worst customer service I’ve seen in my entire life. Our first encounter with him was when we just sat at our reserved table and he asked what drinks we would like to order, we were still deciding and he was like ‘whatever, lemme know when you guys decide’ and walked away we laughed it off because you know, he’s just trying to make a joke out of the situation A few minutes later, we wanted to make some enquires about COSMO and asked to see the manager, we were directed to this guy ‘the supervisor’ again . And he was rude At that point we realized, there’s something up with this guy. The first impression he gave us is truly who he is When we were done eating, we wanted to make payment and guess what, it was this rude guy again . He was so impatient, hurrying us to pay up so he could go about his business kind of vibe. At that point we were fed up with his behavior and told him man, if you’re tired of your job, you really should let someone who will do better take it up. He is bad karma for that place That’s it, my 2cents Thanks for reading till the end

The restaurant was chosen for our grand finale of bowling and enjoying some nice quiet drinks and whilst i have not been there myself I have heard some good things about it and the reviews have also been very good on the whole. You are greeted by the front desk and even if you come early they are friendly and will find you a seat quickly and quietly. The service is good and the concept is easy and works. You have a great selection of different foods and you can enjoy a great selection of Chinese, Italian, Indian and even a roast dinner if you fancy it. You have 2 hours during which time you can go and gorge yourself on some delicious food which is prepared freshly and then kept warm in a hot water system. You have starters, you have main course and you have a gorgeous desert option. There truly is something for everyone here so you are bound to find something that you will want to eat.

A huge buffet restaurant with lots of tables for customers. However, not too sure if there are actually over 150 dishes offered at the buffet as advertised on their website. Disappointed with the sushi selection as it only had tamago, inari, tuna and another similar to a california roll. I was really looking forward to seeing at least one type of raw fish sushi (the usual salmon) being served for the price we pay. A buffet restaurant that I last dined at in York served a wider range of sushi, both cooked and raw at a cheaper price. Very friendly and proactive staff. They collected empty plates really quickly. Also, a good variety of desserts. You can taste the alcohol soaked (biscuit?) in the based of the tiramisu slice. Overall COSMO is alright, I will return but its not my top buffet restaurant.
