This is not your standard buffet. Located in the Cosmopolitan, the interior design and the food match the rest of the casino -- modern and sophisticated. The vibe was really chic and service was quick. The dishes came in little silver pots that allowed the food to be sizzling hot. For $35 I ate $350 worth of food:
* Beef Ribs - Seasoned perfectly and very juicy.
* Prime Rib - A perfect medium rare. Meat was tender and juicy.
* Breaded Mac & Cheese - Nice cheesy taste but the breading was just too much.
* Cheese Spinach Dip - had a very nice flavor.
* Mashed Potatoes - Creamy and properly seasoned mashed potatoes.
* Truffle Potatoes - This has a great truffle flavor to them.
* Salmon - Nice and tender and not overcooked.
* Pad Thai - Noodles were mushy and the flavors did not work.
* Shrimp Grits - Very flavorful Cajun flavored shrimp with grits.
* Skirt Steak - Nice medium rare, but was under seasoned.
* Shumai - Tasty but lukewarm.
* Yellowtail sushi - The sushi was acceptable for all you can eat.
* Tuna Sashimi - On par to the other all you can eat sushi places.
* Braised Beef - Very moist and flavorful that just fell apart nicely.
* Tri Tip - Perfectly cooked!
Hands down, the carving stations were my favorite. While I still think the Bellagio and Wynn buffets have much higher quality food, the Wicked Spoon Buffet isn't far behind.
