The atmosphere at Cosmo is modern and inviting, with a spacious, open space that creates a pleasant blend of elegance and casualness through stylish lighting and clever room layout. The live cooking stations are particularly striking, allowing guests to watch the chefs prepare dishes like Teppanyaki or freshly grilled meat – an interactive element that makes dining an experience.

Culinarily, Cosmo is a paradise for those who love variety. The menu includes over 150 dishes from around the world, from Asian classics to European favorites to Latin American specialties. A highlight is the "Crispy Peking Duck", where guests can create their own duck rolls with freshly roasted duck, spring onions, cucumbers, and a sweet plum sauce – a delight that perfectly captures the flavors of Chinese cuisine. Equally popular is the "Butter Chicken", a creamy Indian curry that delights both connoisseurs and newcomers with its mild spice and tender chicken. For lovers of Italian cuisine, there are freshly baked pizzas in a wood-fired oven, convincing with their crispy crust and rich toppings. The "Teppanyaki Tiger Prawns", grilled directly on the hot plate, offer a juicy and flavorful option for seafood fans.

The dessert offering is another pillar of the Cosmo experience. Especially the "Chocolate Fountain" stands out – a chocolate fountain where you can dip fresh strawberries, marshmallows, or small pieces of cake, which is particularly popular with children and sweet tooths. The selection of cakes and Asian desserts like mango pudding completes the offering and invites you to end the evening on a sweet note. The drink menu offers a wide range, from bottomless soft drinks that can be refilled unlimitedly, to a selection of cocktails and beers that harmoniously complement the dishes.

Diverse dishes at Cosmo restaurant

Cosmo places great emphasis on family-friendliness, reflected in the flexible pricing for children and the diversity of the offering – here everyone can find something to their taste. The service is often described as friendly and helpful, with staff striving to make guests' stay as pleasant as possible, for example by explaining the dishes or quickly clearing the tables. However, at peak times it can get a bit hectic, and the waiting times at the cooking stations occasionally vary, due to the restaurant's popularity.

My mum and my 4 year old son fell down the escalator the person behind the check in desk didn’t even move to help thanks a to another member of public who stopped the escalator Didn’t offer a discount or anything just 1 free meal Even tho Won’t be going back Wouldn’t say the new layout is child friendly either with heat things in front of the food now

Have had to give Cosmo 1 star from the perspective of being Plant Based and having seriously limited options. All allergy cards are at the back and very hard to read, No Vegan protein offered with only 1 tofu option which had both egg and milk in, potato options available (chips, mash, wedges) with onion rings but that's about it, we were offered a 25% but ended up not paying for 1 cover as all I had was mushrooms and chips, if you're Plant Based I would give this place a miss, alright atmosphere

Not impressed at all unfortunately. Previous experiences were a lot better. After renovation - added(or should I say squeezed in) more tables, now barely can fit where soft seats from both sides. Less choice of food(at least that's what we thought). No garlic or chilli sauce for kebab. Because counters are now bigger, you need to reach over (on some of them over trays of food) so not only now mess is everywhere, but it's hard for kids to reach back trays. Mine is almost 10 and with some I had to help him. The bar counter is constantly full of empty glasses.
