| - This was a lovely surprise. I guess I didn't expect much from a hotel restaurant whose sole purpose seems to be feeding the pool-goers. However, the Cosmopolitan did a great job here. The location and interior are lovely, done in bright tropical colors. The menu contains many small plates to choose from, reasonably priced (at least considering the location) and well executed.
Though I didn't encounter any ground breaking cuisine, I did thoroughly enjoy my lunch and would be happy to return. Special kudos to the mixologist for some delicious, well-balanced cocktails.
We started our meal with the Garlic Edamame, which was my favorite snack of the day. We also split: BBQ Ribs, the Mezze Plate, Strawberry Mascarpone French Toast, and another item I can't remember.
Our server was very pleasant and attentive, though he did not know the menu well and could not answer our questions. For dessert, we ordered a few of the minis, which were very attractively presented, but just OK. The whoopie pies especially were served with cold buttercream filling, which in my book is a huge no-no.
