| - Every time we come to Vegas we are told by everyone to go to Wicked Spoon. But always skipped it because I just couldn't see coughing up almost $90 for two people for dinner. But after using our Aria room credit and starving for something good to eat for dinner we walked next door to finally try this buffet. You have to walk some through Cosmopolitan to find it. Its around this empty hallway full of art and classic posters.
I have got to point out that EVERYONE working here is beyond friendly, helpful, and actually talkative. I waited for the mac and cheese bar and the guy making all the orders struck up conversations, made jokes, and was really efficient. Our server was also super nice and vigilant on refills and empty plates. And the gelato guy was really funny and quick.
They had a range of food from Japanese to Israeli to Spanish and even comfort food. I especially liked the ceviche, shepherd's pie, mac and cheese and oh god the desserts. But I skipped over or barely ate a lot of what I picked up. The prime rib had a lot of fat, the bool kogi was dry, and the sushi was average. But back to the desserts. I would say they had the best tasting desserts I've had at a buffet. Come on nutella gelato!!! your killing me! Macaroons, mini cakes, and cupcakes, oh my! I was in sugar heaven.
The place is nicely decorated. There wasn't that many people eating there. In fact there was no line at 7:30pm on a Saturday.
