| - The Wicked Spoon Buffet is located on the 2nd floor of The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas. Just take the escalators nearest the check-in desk to the second floor and follow the signs......or the aroma of food, I'm sure either one will lead you to this food mecca.
My friend and I decided to to skip any breakfast completely and went to directly to Wicked Spoon for their brunch buffet. Priced at $22.00, the brunch buffet is available Monday thru Friday from 8am till 2pm.
The selections for brunch were quite diverse, and I truly appreciated that since it was 10am....a little too late for breakfast, but perhaps for some, still early for lunch. Breakfast foods included sausages, fruits, cheeses, breads, bagels, and parfait. Other standouts and favorites included the sushi, pizzas, ravioli, and fried chicken.
The food was very satisfactory, but for me in particular there wasn't that "wow" factor that took my breath away. However, I think Wicked Spoon makes an impression with their presentation, such as the fried chicken served in miniature deep fryer basket, whilst the ravioli was served in tiny fry pans.
BEST: The most memorable part about brunch: dessert, of course. I wish I had saved more room for dessert because the choices and selection would have satisfied any and all sweet tooth cravings. Not wanting to over indulge, I made sure I chose only what I knew I would finish. I ended up with 2 raspberry macaroons, 1 cheesecake, and 1 pecan pie. Loved dessert.
SERVICE: Good. Not excellent....but good and satisfactory. The server was friendly enough, but we had to wait for what seemed like a century before we got refills for our soda.
Bottom Line: I thought the price for brunch was reasonable and the selection was satisfactory. I wouldn't rule out another visit to Wicked Spoon, but perhaps for dinner next time.
