| - WOW Wicked Spoon! You really know how to impress! Located inside the gorgeous and very chic Cosmopolitan Hotel, this was our first time dining at their buffet. I can honestly say that it was the best buffet experience I have ever had!
We came for Brunch on a Friday around 10am. The line was very long which means popular and delicious! For $27 per adult it was an incredible meal. I've been to almost every buffet in Vegas over the last 7 years and this was the best one.
The food area was divided between breakfast and brunch sections. We started with eggs, sausages, bacon, waffles, maple syrup and smoked salmon bagels with divine whipped cream cheese. Croissants and cheesy hashbrowns and crispy chicken wings! Next I headed over to the "brunch" section to look at the Asian items, pizza, prawns, fried chicken baskets, grilled salmon, desserts and a full Gelato bar that would put Jean Philippe to shame.
Once I discovered the thick cut applewood Slab Bacon at the Carvery there was no way I was ever looking back.
My husband and I looked at each other and exclaimed "Manny's!" after taking one bite. If you've ever been to Manny's Steakhouse in Minneapolis or The Strip House Steak House inside Planet Hollywood, it tastes just like the Bacon appetizers both of those restaurants have. Outstanding. And having it for brunch, even better!
I also had Prime Rib sliced nice and thin and just pink enough. The regular crispy bacon was good too!
Smoked Salmon was fresh and light and just perfect on my toasted bagel. The coffee was some of the best Buffet coffee ever. It was far superior to Bellagio and Wynn's coffee but I love both of those buffets too.
Dessert: I had a maple pecan bread pudding with Salted Caramel Peanut gelato. Mini Tres Leches cake and chocolate covered strawberries topped it off for me. So much food I couldn't finish it. Even the orange juice was divine.
Interior: One of the most beautiful interiors I have ever seen, with such thoughtful attention to detail like amazing light fixtures (sculptures, if you will) and nice large tables and chairs that were so comfortable. You don't feel like you are dining at a Buffet. You feel like you are in a fancy restaurant. Service was spectacular. Everything was remarkable. Will definitely return!
