We didn't bother using the cups. There was a drink menu for alcohol, but no waiter for a slow Monday night. We had to get up and ask for a bottled water and a beer. Most of the food was bland! The kimchi was old. The noodle soup was water with a hint of color, you would think with all the noodle displays, they would serve all the options? Nope, just one option, the different noodle selection is a display. The food is warm, which I find cold. I expect my food to be piping hot. I can go on, but overall SUPER disappointed and unstable. By the way, the manager was the 2nd host handing us the dirty glass cups. Not worth the hype.

COSMO is all about incredible food. Yes the restaurant is stunning, yes it's been created by some…read moreof the best designers and architects in the country. And yes, it will leave you open mouthed in awe; in its scale; in its custom made features and its grandeur- but it's the food that will really impress. The chefs at COSMO work tirelessly to source the finest and freshest ingredients, so every dish prepared tastes delicious. Those ingredients are expertly combined according to recipes from all over the world, using traditional cooking techniques that give you a taste of each country of origin. Well thats a transcript from their website, do i agree with what they say? The answer is a big yes, eating japanese food alongside chinese, italian etc makes one's tast buds go into overdrive. Its an oasis hidden away in a jungle of retail outlets.

HEY ASIAN FOOD LOVERS. I have a few things to say about COSMO. Firstly the price, its a sky high…read moreprice of £17.99. I don't know about you but I think that is very unreasonable. I am a white women with kids in Britain , I am a tax payer and have a full time working job and I still cant BELIVE the price its ridiculous !! My kids only liked pizza and it was shit quality. The duck, woahh, its DRYYY how do you digest that shit . its stringy and gets stuck in your teeth for days! concluding, I highly recommend you to SWERVE this place.... IM WARNING U DONT DO IT YOU DARE

If you like tasty food, and you enjoy eating well for not a lot of money, do visit Chennai Dosa…read more It is very much an Indian version of a caff, and the seating and service is interesting, but you can forgive them anything. Why? Because you can have a great, healthy meal for less than £5, and there's not many places that will do that in London. It's vegetarian, and although I'm not and there are non-veg options, I stick veg when I'm there, because it is so tasty. My favourite? A chilli iddly to start (a fried dumpling served with peppers, onion and chilli) followed by a Masala Dosa, all for about £4. If there was a down side to it, it is that I didn't understand what a lot of the menu items were - they are authentic. But I've enjoyed finding out.

Quite possibly the worst Chinese buffet in London. They've somehow managed to make everything on…read morethe buffet taste like cardboard. On the outside this place looks like it represents decent value for money with some enticing prices advertised, however when you go in you find out those prices are only available sometimes. You could almost forgive this place for being a tourist trap except that it's quite out of the way and not the sort of place you'd get a lot of passing footfall. I genuinely don't get how they survive! Perhaps my experience was unique, but I wasn't the only one who felt this way. I went with a group of colleagues and we all agreed the place wasn't very good at all. It really did seem like it didn't matter what dish you chose from the buffet; they all tasted the same. I hope it was a one-off and that the place isn't normally like this, but if you do go there after reading this, you have been warned...

Hmmm, not soo good. It's an all you can eat buffet affair which doesn't really bode for quality…read morefood but I do expect better. It's around £5 for lunch and I think £7.50 for dinner, I obviously manage to eat quite a lot and had a bit of a food coma afterwards but I didn't feel satisfied. There wasn't really all that much on offer, if you're looking for variety just the standard sweet & sour chicken and fried rice malarky. So don't go if you want to eat quality Chinese food but if you want to fill a hole...

Worst selection of food nothing tastes good other than sweet and sour chicken which was very…read moreinconsistent as it was getting refilled. Everything tasted so dull and plain like there was no time to season the food. On top of that bathroom was extremely filthy so couldn't even wash hands before eating and when I told the manager the tap isn't working I was completely ignored and instead of fixing the hand dryers they leave a roll of tissue roll out not even paper towels. Only thing that was faultless were the prawn cracker crisps. But £13 to eat prawn cracker crisps just doesn't feel right for some reason... On top of that the Pepsi they charged £2 for was flat like it was from a 2litre bottle that was open from the day before. JUST AVOID THIS PLACE COMPLETELY. Better to get a takeaway or go to a propper authentic Chinese buffet plenty of halal options like Aroma buffet, choudharys, JRC. I don't think I seen a single happy customer walk out that restaurant.

It was very pricey , A WHOPPING £4.99! wouldn't pay 2p for the quality of that grub!!!!!!! The workers, don't even get me started, I am angryyy!

I would highly recommend not to eat or order from this place. Last night I placed an order from…read morethis restaurant and the expected delivery time was 40-45 mins on just eat. It then got delayed a further 30 mins by the restaurant and still had not reached me so I called up to enquire about my delivery and got told it would be an additional 10 mins. I understand sometimes delays occur due to unforeseen and uncontrollable circumstances but it took a total of 2hrs and 8mins for it to reach me after my order was placed and I was given rubbish customer service from the staff. The person on the phone lied to me about the delivery time and could not keep me updated on the location of my delivery which I think is unfair and unreasonable. When the delivery driver finally arrived he didn't even give me an apology and instead tried arguing with me and caused a scene in front of others as well as calling me a liar claiming I didn't order when I said I did. Luckily, a helpful member from just eat was on the phone to me at the time and heard the whole conversation and rectified the problem for me so a big thumbs up to Alex from just eat. When the food arrived, my naan breads were cold and hard; the biryani tasted like plain pilau rice with a few bits of chicken; my chicken, lamb and prawn curries tasted like they all shared the same masala and was buried in tomato purée. So in conclusion, the service, the food and the delivery all deserve half a star. Save yourself the trouble please.
