COSMO Belfast in Belfast

this spot is the best despite some nasty reviews lovely staff would go back forever and family loved it the day i took them

This was an amazing dining experience. The food was absolutely delicious, and we enjoyed flavors from different countries. The sushi was excellent, and the Chinese dishes were also fantastic. The roast chicken was tender. The staff were all very friendly, especially Manager Josh, who took great care of me and was extremely attentive. I will definitely come back again.

Staff was friendly and efficient, as soon as our plates were empty someone appeared to ask if we’d like them cleared despite it being a busy dinner period. A few of them stopped to chat as they were clearing our plates to make sure everything was all okay for us. Also a very wide variety of food on offer which was constantly being topped up with fresh batches. Everything we tried was great, definitely be back to try the dishes we weren’t fit for.

I have been going to Cosmo Belfast for over ten years and I still find it one of the best places in the city centre for a great night out. The food is fantastic and of course over ten years of regular visits there have been the rare occasions when things weren't quite right, but those times are so rare they are hardly worth any further comment. The atmosphere is brilliant and the staff are amazing. I know Cosmo will be closing soon for refurbishment and new menus but I can't wait to get back to my restaurant home again. I want to thank the staff for helping me through my recent bereavement, they were so kind and thoughtful. I feel like we are friends and really appreciate the welcome back smile each time I go. Special thanks to Jose, Carlo, Polar, Airis, Nike, Josh, Qin, Hania and Emil all great people. As for those who have posted negative comments I would say where else would you pay a small price for an all you can eat buffet in this day and age? Go somewhere else and pay double the price for half the amount! Cosmo is a fantastic place and I highly recommend it.

I didn’t have high expectations but this was inexcusably vile (except for the friendly staff). The food was so full of MSG that everything tasted the same. Processed deep fried rubbish and not much else. Nothing was being replenished so there were just bits of congealed meat stuck around the edges of the serving trays to scrape at. The freshly cooked prawns were actually quite nice but the beef was like eating my own shoe. It was so depressing to see the state of the gluttonous clientele, not that we needed further proof that eating highly processed junk food turns people into obese and immobile zombies. Entire families of unhealthy adults and children making themselves fatter and sicker through ignorant overindulgence. Sickening, would never go back.

Visited Cosmos in Victoria Square for a lunch, we were disappointed, there was little selection and the food was below average, chips were soggy, Eton mess dessert was just a lump of cream with no meringue 😭 The servers on the other hand were pleasant and friendly

I planned a three day trip to Belfast with my twelve year old daughter and we decided to come to Cosmo in the shopping mall. We didn’t reserve a table in advance but when we got in to ask for one it was so crowded with huge groups of people in a tiny area. We asked to get a table for two and the lady at the desk said it would only be a little wait. When we were waiting we decided to look around the giant mall. When we got back (after about half an hour) we were still told to wait. We were waiting in the not very pleasant reception area for a further half hour! We asked for a table at about seven and only got a table after eight! We were both famished by the time we got seated and expected a great selection of food but there wasn’t much to chose from and the food that was there was very limited and half of the food dishes were empty as we arrived near closing time. It wasn’t great considering my daughter is a very picky eater and there wasn’t a big selection for her but that was to be expected considering it is Asian food that she hasn’t really been accustom to that. I had a few different curries and mostly Indian food which was alright but not great quality. We weren’t seated until after eight and at about ten to nine we were told that we had to leave soon for closing which wasn’t great. The dessert selection was very good there was so much to chose from but you don’t go to a buffet or restaurant for the dessert. The price was bad too it was very expensive for alright quality food. I wouldn’t recommend this restaurant especially if you don’t book in advance.

Not as nice as it used to be. Wide selection of food and decent enough price. But you get what you pay for so food was just ok.

I went to cosmo yesterday 8/2/24 at 2.30pm when it first opened. I didnt find it that nice at all as it usually is, I was expecting the food to be fresh as it just opened but the food was dry and some of the food was cold as if they were sat their from the day before and just re heated up. A woman was going around checking the food temperature ( it was only just opened so if it was fresh food why check the temperature within 5 mins of opening) and I observed the chicken wings to be in a low temp reading at 52, she walked away and left them. Then I met her again testing the ribs which read 54 I said to her " they need to be took away they are reading low " so she did take them away, within 5 mins the same dish came out, everyone went to the ribs and took them thinking they were a new fresh dish, I observed people eating them and putting them down after 1 bite. The noodles were also very dry, I kept thinking about the food readings as this turned me off eating so me and my partner left, we were only there for 30mins. I question if this food is pre heated..

I had a lovely evening with my family in Cosmo, Belfast. The food at this restaurant is absolutely amazing. Every single dish was extremely delicious. Thankyou Cosmo Belfast

Wide selection of food available and good drinks menu. The price was reasonable for the amount of variety including desserts. Liked the festive decorations

All the food was nice and hot, waiter was helpful. For a buffet it was definitely something! The range of desserts was really great. Only down side was not many vegetarian options :(

okay service with good food considering price.£20 per person for unlimited food is very reasonabl.Packed atmosphere how ever

We went here today 'Boxing Day' the food was ok and the service was great. When leaving we paid our bill and left a tip. My husband happened to look at the receipt when we arrived home and noticed it states OPTIONAL 3% SERVICE CHARGE, well its not optional the server at the till had added it to our bill without asking!!!! This is not America!!! How dare you think this is acceptable to take customer's money!!!! I just urge everyone to check their bill before paying in any Cosmo restaurant.

Honestly the worst experience I’ve had in a long time. Limited cold food. Management didn’t care. Never again don’t waste your money.

Don't think I will be back, food was all shrivelled up in every section, nothing was warm, no selection at all for children as this section was closed. Food that we did have was tasteless and hard and cold. Had to ask 3 times for glasses for a drink.

From reading some of the reviews I wonder if they were in the same place or if they are just a bunch of self entitled Karen's lol. The food was fantastic my only complaint was I got to full to try everything. The layout was fantastic with having a very wide selection of mains and deserts. Our server was very polite in explaining the concept of the restaurant to me and my girlfriend as neither of us had ever experienced it before. We both felt that the price was very fair and would happily have paid a higher service charge for the excellent service we received. Unfortunately this restaurant does seem to receive a lot of Karen's 🔔ends as 'customers' one of which was seated at the table next to us and spent her entire time there complaining about everything, her husband however seemed to enjoy himself, so poor man lol listening to that. We will 100% be back as this was a delightful place to eat.

My 12 year old nephew and his best friend of the same age were excited to eat here as it was their first proper outing alone in the town and he was excited to spend some of his Christmas money. My nephew was charged almost double what his friend was despite being a couple of months younger, just because he was taller. I know it states this on their website but what a ridiculous rule! It's penalising taller kids, it should be by age. My nephew loves it here but was really upset by having to pay double what his friend did, it's really unfair.

I wish I had of read the reviews before visting again!we used to go here every Christmas while we did some shopping and decided to go today. I wish we hadn't! The food was cold, the choice is no way near what it used to be, and the food and selection of desserts were nothing but frozen items you could have bought in iceland! The staff unfortunately did not seem like any of them wanted to be there, unhelpful and unhappy, and then have the cheek to try and charge a service charge, which probably doesn't go to them anyway! The worst part for me aside from the food was the ladies toilets! An absolute disgrace...there was USED sanitary pads sticking out of the bins, this is totally unacceptable in any public facility!! Will never be back through the door again, its not the cheapest place to eat so sort the place out, people should not be wasting hard earned cash on cold tasteless food!

Food is always just OK but on my most recent visit decided I’ll not be back when the majority of the plates out for people to use still had remnants of the last users meal. Toilets were filthy too, whoever is supposed to be checking them either isn’t checking them or is putting on a blindfold before going in

First time visiting during/after the pandemic. And honestly, i applaud them for all they're doing under the currant restrictions. Pleasant staff, and service - wasn't left disappointed.

Awful awful services ,serving staff were so rude and the lady who looked like a manager at the top of the stairs was horrible. The service let the whole experience down ,definitely won’t be back or recommending to anyone.Massive lack of manners among them.

We were looking forward to visiting Cosmo again after the restrictions had eased a bit. We booked a table for Sunday Lunch and it was a little different to what we were used to, but under the current restrictions, they really are doing the best they can to remain open.Instead of the ‘help yourself’ that you’re use to, you are now served by a member of staff to what you want. They tend to give you a skinny portion, but if you ask nicely for more, they’ll give you more. Also, you can go up as many times as you like so there’s no need to go away hungry. All the staff are trying to do is minimise food waste, which has always been a problem there with people with ‘eyes bigger than belly’ syndrome.Although it’s not the dining experience you are use to, they have tried their best to keep the best bits but work within the government guidelines. My one gripe would be that there was only 1 member of staff per long row of food. If it was quiet, this was ok, but if you got stuck behind a group, it meant you could be waiting a long time. Also the soft serve ice cream machine has gone which disappointed both the kids and us adults!Well done Cosmo, it can’t be easy jumping through the hoops the government has set out and trying to keep your customer happy.

Visited my first restaurant out since lockdown and had a poor experience we have been here lots of times before . Firstly make sure your hand sanitizers are full secondly I was challenged about not wearing a mask even though I had my sunflower lanyard which says I’m exempt and staff should be made aware they aren’t to challenge that person . Very small portions we all came home hungry won’t be back ever again be frankie and Bennys you ah w just lost yourself a loyal customer

I went there for my holy communion great food but it cost £180 so yea I recommend this place it's way better than china china it says June 2020 but I went in 2019 July

Very nice experience in this cosmo , feel very safe and comfortable to eat here ,will book a table again well done 👍 .

We visited Cosmo Belfast on Saturday 19th December. We have been many times before and were very disappointed with the changed due to Covid 19. A one way system is in place which only works for half of the restaurant. We had a choice of only two beers and two cocktails. The food is served by staff who seem to have been trained to only give tiny portions. Items on the menu were not present. So much or the original menu was not available. They should have remained closed rather than offer less than half the expected service for the full price. We all have bills to pay but I feel Cosmo has damaged their reputation with this current offering.

Had a great time with my friends in cosmos this week, everything is kept really safe with covid 19 safety measures put in place, it's easy to order, the staff are an absolute delight, especially the staff member who served me at my table for drinks and at the tills, his name was Dan and he was super friendly, hospitable and well mannered and made out experiencing a very charming one. We will definitely be back!!! Its excellent to be able to try foods that I would not usually try for one well rounded and very reasonable price, the cocktails are fantastic also.

Always loved cosmo but after yesterday 13th December won't b back I know they have to put safety measures in place but they need 2 review government guide lines 2 make a 2yrold wear a mask impossible chefs didn't even know wot dishes they were serving asked for potato waffles got salt chilli chicken very badly floor layout no stars 4 this visit and will never b back

Went there tonight (11th December) and was really looking forward to a family meal in a restaurant that was highly recommended to us. Well this was the worst experience ever, inedible from start to finish.Rude staff, 'chefs' that didn't even know the food, carvery that looked awful. The food really was brutally bad. I complained and was more or less ignored. Will never be back.Oh, and very flimsy Covid protection measures... Awful... no stars

Bought food and had to wait 30 mins and the food still never came. When I asked for my money back she ignored me. The workers are so rude. Never going back. We didn't even ask for a big meal. It should've only taken max 15 minutes!!

Just had a take away lunch! All safety measures in place (temp taken etc) Worked well and a treat during a restricted half term holiday Thursday! Oh and a good lunch too! Great value £6.99 for one medium box which did two (portion size great value)

¡Mi lugar favorito para disfrutar! Amo la comida. . muchos platos para deleitarse y satisfacer los antojos. El ambiente es hermoso y el personal, especialmente la recepcionista, es muy acogedor y servicial. Tienen muy buenas medidas de seguridad en términos de Covid - 19 en su lugar. . que van desde el sistema ibe way hasta los escudos protectores transparentes instalados en cada mesa es muy eficaz. Recomendaría mucho el lugar. . ¡vale la pena cada centavo! Obtener reserva!

Loads of food selection and the staff are very friendly. Would definitely come back again and recommend this place to my friends and family.

Alimentos deliciosos, ambiente agradable, inodoro limpio y personal amable, especialmente mi hermosa mejor amiga Cessy, que trabajaba allí como recepcionista. Mis amigos y yo lo pasamos muy bien y disfrutamos de la comida. Muchas gracias ?? Sin duda volveremos allí con amigos y familiares.

My 6y/o's favourite place loves being able to go and choose little bits of food for herself :) friendly helpful staff, fresh food, all recently replenished. No sauvignon blanc but wont hold that against them

Took a trip to Belfast and after a bit of thought we decided to try Cosmo. We had heard lots of good reports from other friends who've been so we just HAD to try it. On arrival we were warmly greeted with a cheerful hello and a smile by a lovely guy..Stefan, I think, was his name, and he explained how the Cosmo system worked. We were amazed with the large variety of food on offer...nobody should ever leave hungry. I opted for the vegetarian options and they were all delicious. My friend went for the more spicy choices and the meat dishes! Everything we had was piping hot so no complaints there. I also spied the array of desserts but i didnt try as i don't really have a sweet tooth...my friend must have had a bit of everything and cleared her plates! The staff were all excellent and very attentive, nothing was too much trouble...even when I spilled my drink round myself, table and floor they were quick to get me extra napkins and had it cleaned up in no time. I was so embarrassed. If you enjoy a buffet style self-service definitely give them a visit. It was very busy during our visit but that just added to the vibrant atmosphere that we enjoy. We were well impressed...looking forward to another visit in the near future!

Had dinner here last night with two friends. It was 9 pm on a Saturday night and as such, pretty late in the day, a lot of the food had either run out or had gone a bit hard!! Still we managed quite a bit and food was nice. Wish we had of eaten earlier!!

I would really like to give 5 stars only to larisa an employee of Cosmo me and a friend went in for a meal and cosmos is cosmos good food for how much your paying but seriously just because of larisa on the 19th of February I will definitely be back in a heart beat her customer service would amazing she was so kind and welcoming person definitely will be back to see her!

My family and I love going to COSMO’s; we all have different dietary requirements and love how we can all get something we like there. This was my first time going there for lunch however, and I was surprised how few options I had as a pescatarian in comparison to dinner time. There were only very few vegetable dishes, only 1 tofu dish and only 1 seafood dish. There were 2 soups and they both contained meat, so I was relegated to chips, onion rings and rice for most of my meal, which is a world of difference in comparison to their dinner offerings. The rest of my family still ate very well, and we had a great time, I just won’t be back for lunch; I’ll stick to their dinner buffet. And I would recommend vegetarians and vegans do the same.

I wanted to leave this review earlier, but I had forgotten until a friend reminded me because she had been to Cosmo as well. I was in Cosmo Belfast a couple of weeks back. It was our first time there. When we got into the lobby we were greeted by a really friendly man. He was absolutely lovely and told us to take a seat while waiting for a table to become available. Then we went upstairs and me and my husband had some doubts because the lady who was waiting for us didn't seem very kind or welcoming, but then we were taken to a table by a young man i think his name is Nahel. We hadn't reserved but he got us a table for just us two near the window, which was perfect because that was what we wanted, and because it was our first time there he explained to us how the restaurant worked. He also recommended us some dishes that he personally likes which was very nice and then he asked if he could take our drink order but neither me or my husband was really sure and he recommended us some cocktails, but I don't drink alcohol so he recommended me a non-alcoholic cocktail. We had an overall lovely experience and our waiter was great. Enough choice of food as well. It was all fresh and warm and when my husband couldn't find something there was staff around to help him. We both loved the desert section the most, especially the chocolate fountain, but would like to see more clearly indicated where to find which cuisine and maybe in larger text where clean cutlery is. Or maybe we both need new glasses. It's also not too expensive. So it's really great. Even if you're on a budget, but you want good food and a lot of choice then this is definitely for you.

Restaurant à volonté au centre de Belfast proposant un buffet gargantuesque. Ce n'est pas un gastronomique mais très bon rapport qualité prix et permettant de passer un bon moment en famille.

Massive buffet style restaurant with lots and lots to choose from. Obviously it’s quantity rather than quality. Big queues in the downstairs lobby even overflowing outside, yet when you go upstairs to the Restuarant there are plenty of seats available. Booking would be advisable. Overall just okay and we wouldn’t rush back. On a very positive note - staff were very friendly yet professional. Well done guys.

Went here while we in Belfast visiting the Titanic museum and city. Pleasant atmosphere not too noisy but very busy. Food choices brilliant, hot and plentiful. Food from around the world, Chinese, Japanese, Mexican, Italian, Indian, English. Puddings and fruit to die for. Well recommended

We went of an evening was very busy, a huge range of food especially chinese and Indian. Food was hot, always a big bonus at these places! Was meant to have a roast dinner section that was a big let down. Was ok ....

My husband and I took our 2 kids out to Cosmo last night for the first time. When we arrived it was quite crowded the girl on reception imogen was so polite and smiley even though clearly under a lot of pressure. She explained the restaurant to us and of the waiting time. I would recommend booking on Saturday as it’s very busy. Stephan showed us to our table, was so lovely, very positive and upbeat, couldn’t do enough for you. The food was reasonable for the price, it’s all you can eat and drinks aren’t included in the price, we ordered the bottomless glasses which we could just keep topping up as often as we like. Perfect for kids, my girls loved it will definitely bring them back on another day.

First time in Cosmos and will definitely not be my last. Food well displayed and easy to serve yourself. Loved the variety and everything I tried was delicious. Staff were very friendly and helpful

I came here 2 days ago for dinner with family for my sisters birthday, the food was so lovely we got to try a bit of everything that day, the staff was so lovely and polite specially the girl that brought our drinks and cake, we tried tipping her but unfortunately she wouldn't accept the money for herself, she suggested to write a comment about her instead, her name is Britney, i would recommend this restaurant for big groups as there's plenty to choose from.

Me and my husband met up with a friend at Cosmo. Good selection of food. The service was the best service we have had. The waitress was very polite and very professional and courteous. Her name was Larisa, she was from Romania.

Visited here with family on a busy Friday night. We hadn't booked but were seated after a wait of less than 15 minutes. The waitress explained to us about the food stations since it was our first time at Cosmo. She was friendly and attentive. With regards to the food, there was something for everyone from Chinese, steak, roast dinner, Italian, sushi, Mexican, etc. The kids in our group enjoyed watching their steak being cooked in front of them.

OMG didn’t expect so much to choose from. It was amazing. Great variety and at only £16 per person. Staff were lovely and we just arrived and got a table within 5 minutes. You can eat as much as you want from Chinese Mexican Japanese and the desserts - what can I say. My fav was the lemon cake. Would highly recommend and certainly will be back

Variety is key for me! Fussy eater yet always come away stuffed! Love everything about it and food nice and fresh. Would def recommend.

So we arrived with great anticipation as this was our first ever visit to Cosmo, we were greeted by a very welcoming and polite young man who proceeded to send us upstairs to the dining area. Our server was also polite and it is clear customer service is a key attribute with the staff here.

Fui aquí hace 2 años, estaba bien. Llevé a mi madre a niños a almorzar hoy, no hace falta decir que nunca volvería, para comenzar con los vasos nos dieron nuestras bebidas absolutamente desagradables si no tenemos herpes labial, me sorprendería mucho que tengo 2 niños pequeños bebiendo de vasos sucios, cubiertos sucios, platos arenosos con suciedad! ! ! La comida era de 2 estrellas como máximo y es generosa, los desiertos con muy pocas opciones de 10 como máximo. Hablé con el gerente sobre el estado de la vajilla y los vasos y él acaba de pedir perdón y adiós. . . . . . Ah, por no mencionar 3:45 para un pequeño jugo de manzana. . . . . . necesita una revisión seria, ni una persona se acercó a nosotros todo el tiempo. . . . . . Evita este lugar a toda costa. . . . .

My kids love it as they can try lots of different things, great for getting them to experiment a bit more. Restaurant can be a little chaotic and often super busy but if you can get beyond that then it’s good food, reasonable price but booking essential

It has chinese food, curries, pizzas, sushi, desserts, ice cream machine. Soft drink refill as much as you like my view not the best for taste cheaper stlye flavour. But saying that still great there you wont go hungry. Need to book tables wont get in without doing this as a rule. Does have a lift if you need it wheelchairs would be no problem.

I visited Belfast City and decided that we eat in Cosmo as I heard great reviews and I wasn’t disappointed, the food is amazing and everything was perfect had a great time. The guy on the bar Jordan was his name I recommended a drink to us and it didn’t disappoint. Very Friendly Staff!!!!

Lovely place. Even if the place is buzzing and really busy the service is great and food always nice!! We return every time with great enthusiasm!!

Tried to book a table in advance but was told as only two people they don’t do bookings and to show up -so we did. We were told it would be a half hour wait (not roughly or a maximum of, we were told “it will be a half hour wait”) so we put our name down, said we’d wait & we’d quickly nip to the bathroom round the corner in Victoria sq first. Must have been 5 minutes we came back. Stood in the over crowded reception, people and prams all crammed in, new people pushing through, very uncomfortable. Stood right next to the reception desk, smiled & made eye contact with the two receptionists. Over 30 minutes passed & we noticed couples getting called who were after us. So we asked if our name was still on the list to one receptionist, as they checked the other immediately said “yea the name we called earlier” & they could put us down again but it’ll be “ half hour wait”. The girl was rude & embarrassed us in front of the crowd. They let us stand there for over 30 minutes knowing she had scored off our names from the list . Extremely dissatisfied & quite angry. Will not be back.

Great choice and quality food. Very friendly and helpful staff, especially Stefan who always makes sure everything is perfect. Would recommend 100%.

Visited Cosmo for lunch on a busy Friday before Christmas. We had a 25 minute wait for a table but the organisation was exemplary and there seemed to be very good communication between the staff. Once seated we got our drinks very quickly, even though they were flat out busy. Food was amazing!! Constantly being replenished with fresh food and also an amazing selection. Our plates were promptly cleared and all staff were so friendly. Please ignore all the negative comments on this page, as someone who works in hospitality, the staff were amazing and so friendly no matter how busy it was!

Not impressive compared with a long, long waiting queue. Just normal average food with a wide selection.

Me and my husband visited Cosmo on the 27th December 2019 as we always loved coming here. However on this occasion the food was freezing cold and when I went to the bar , the bartender ( I didn’t get his name but he’s Black and has a beard) i don’t care if that sounds rude however it’s not meant to , he made a remark to me calling me the prettiest woman he’s ever seen and I said thank you. but he also kept asking me for my phone number and saying advanced remarks, I felt uncomfortable so I won’t be back. However a lady named Laura I think was very helpful.

It was my first visit to Cosmo Belfast, although I have dined in buffet restaurants on previous occasions. The place wasn't busy and hence we didn't see the harm in placing our used plates on an adjacent (empty) table for the staff to remove. That's until I received a rather terse reprimand from an Australian member of the staff. A simple polite request would have sufficed, but instead I got told to 'Stop doing that on our nice clean table, ok!' from a lad approximately 30 years my junior.

Went here as a group of 4 , walk in, Bad start to the experience , warned we had the table for 1 hour and told we would then have to leave.

It was amazing for first time visit but you will get bored after the 3rd visit. All food is nice except the sushi. Good price if you come during weekdays but they shut half of the food, so better come on weekends so you can enjoy all kind of food they offered.

Era mi primera vez en Cosmo, parecía muy ocupado para un jueves por la noche, la calidad de la comida era impresionante y el personal era encantador. Pudimos dividir la factura y eso lo hizo mucho más fácil incluso si inicialmente no era posible. Definitivamente regresaremos.

Fui aquí con mi novio, conseguí pizza y un cabello negro agridulce en cada una cuando me dijeron que el personal se encontró con una actitud despreocupada y despreocupada, luego retiraron las bebidas de la mesa cuando se les preguntó acerca de esa misma actitud totalmente fuera de servicio.

Fui hoy al restaurante como estaba visitando Belfast. El restaurante estaba muy ocupado, así que esperamos 20 minutos para una mesa y tenía grandes esperanzas. No había un menú a la vista fuera del restaurante, así que no sabía qué esperar. La comida no era nada especial, los platos son pequeños para evitar que la gente tome mucha comida a la vez, lo que hace que uno tenga que levantarse muchas veces para probar diferentes platos disponibles. Mi tarjeta fue rechazada cuando fui a pagar e informé al miembro del personal femenino, que había un montón de dinero en la cuenta, por lo que no fue un error de mi parte. El miembro del personal fue extremadamente grosero y me echó la culpa, a pesar de que mi tarjeta fue aceptada en 3 tiendas posteriores sin problemas. Esto causó vergüenza pública que era totalmente innecesaria. La factura era de casi 50 euros para dos personas y esto parecía muy excesivo para lo que se ofrecía, después de todo, es un buffet.

Como un examen de mitad de escuela (AQE), llevé a mi hija estudiosa de 11 años a cenar. Ella quería ir a Cosmo Belfast en el Victoria Square Shopping Centre Belfast.

Loved coming here but it was so bad this time 16.95 an adult half price for 3 year old ,,where to start currys like water brussel sprouts in a veg curry Bombay potato with baby boil potato nan not even buttered

Ordered water. Usually the waiter brings the first glass of water to you. Now it is 'policy' to bring an empty, plastic tumbler. We were sitting at the far end of the restaurant, a fair old distance to walk. So, I asked for a jug to fill with water and was refused.I pointed out that the girls behind us had one, but that was because they bought cocktails. I don't drink alcohol and am not allowed fizzy drinks, so, water drinkers are discriminated against.

Great variety, nice staff, clean and warm environment. Food is very good quality and delicious!! Chinese, Indian, Asian and European food

So, I do appreciate buffets aren’t known for great Michelin eating experience but I must say some of the staff made it absolutely clear they aren’t enjoying their job.

I was in having dinner on Monday past and i was so pleased with the service and the food. Staff was more then helpful. Can`t wait to come back. Thanks

I was in today and I was impressed of the quality of the food, staff were all smiling and it being my first time Stephan took time and effort to explain to me exactly how their system worked. I would highly recommend this to everyone and will be coming back soon.

As an all you can eat buffet restaurant, it ticks all the boxes. Food was edible, and plentiful. M Food was edible

we visited on tues nite there was 8 of us we enjoyed ourselves plenty of variations of food to keep all happy some of the wings and chicken had gone very dry but there was still plenty on offer would recommend the live cooking station scallops where lovelly

Tasted like my dogs sick, the range of food is so low more of a choice in McDonalds, the coke is made from syrup so is very very sickening and puts you of your meal and staff can just about speak english which isnt convenient especially for tourists

Booked cosmos as we were staying in Belfast for two nights and the kids wanted to go it. I'm not fussed on the place as it's not really to my taste. Anyway we booked for 5.30 waited around 5-10 minutes which was fine. Got into the restaurant and it was like a cattle market people these days have no manners and would nearly tamp over the top of children. Quite a few of the most popular Chinese dishes were empty the food itself was poor because of the poor selection. Safe to say it was terrible and a waste of £90. Was charged for 4 adults and 1 child because they charge by height instead of age in my eyes charging an adults price for a child is a complete rip off because theres no way my child would eat an adults portion. Will definitely not be back.

Place has gone downhill, the coke is made from like a syrup mixture and is either flat, or too bubbly to the point where it feels like your swallowing razor blades which made me feel incredibly sick after having 2 small glasses. All the food is extremley dry and bland and feels like there is no effort put into at all. Never been more disappointed and the staff are extremely ignorant, lucky I didnt smack him, good luck trying to keep this business running as I'm hearing more and more bad reviews about this place, worst restaurant in Belfast do not recommend, unless you wanna be sick cos I'm lucky I wasnt,also atmosphere is dead feel like I'm at a funeral, maybe the restaurants funeral since its dying. Don't have any photos of the food but that's pretty much the same thing.

so much choice at a fantastic price and very friendly staff great place to celebrate all kinds of occasions like birthdays and retirements etc. food to suit anyone with all types of eating habits or allergies.

Visited on a Sunday evening. Great selection of food management was great, sorted two dairy free deserts even though it was near closing. There was one waiter Jim that stood out. He was young but such potential and very pleasant.

Was impressed by food selection and desert selection when they say eat all you want they mean it enjoyed the chocolate fountain

My cousin said he was taking us for sunday lunch ...so we were expecting traditional..what a lovely surprise when we walked into Cosmo .....Had to report to receptionist and wait a few moments to be called upstairs ..We were meet by a very friendly young waitress who showed us to our table . She explained certain soft drinks were refilled for free and told us to enjoy our food ...There was a hugh variety including traditional roast ,it was all hot tasty and the place was lovely and clean . There was also a vast array of sweets including a large chocolate fountain ...Can't wait to return to try all the dishes i couldn't manage first time ..

Awful experience - went for lunch and it was horrible. Dried up cold food with a very poor selection. No fish or sushi counter. Only food to choose from was moreless Chinese or Indian which all tasted the same with dried up cardboard chips. Some pizza aswell which was hard as rock. Staff very rude and tried to charge us twice for our bill. Only two options on desserts. Shocking

Great memories of this place from a few years back, when it was buzzing inside, and queues outside to get in.

Terrible experience in Cosmo , We arrived before 8pm checking it was open to 9.30 pm on Sunday evening so this gave us 1.5hrs to relax and eat at our leisure

Great quality and variety of Chinese and Indian food.

Staff seem annoyed to be there + food is of a very poor quality + soda is flat + booming music = my experience in Cosmos. I would go to McDonalds before I would return to Cosmos again.

Dropped in again for an evening meal recently. Our table was ready at the pre booked time and the check in girl was efficient and friendly.

We come here quite often and are never disappointed. From being greated at the door by the wonderful Imogen who always works so hard and meets visitors with a welcoming smile, to being met upstairs and shown to our seats by the fantastic Tata who finds nothing troublesome, the staff are always most helpful and attentive. There is every type of food here for all tastes, Chinese, Indian, European including Sunday lunch mash, pizza, salads and the fresh cook counter is amazing. It can be very busy but we tend to go later to let the crowds disappear. The desserts aren't to my taste but there's a great ice cream machine or as the locals call it - a Mr Whippy and with melted chocolate over the ice cream, it's sort of hard to resist even for me. Well done as always to all the staff.

we had booked - which is a must - staff friendly /helpful - food amazing and such variety to suit every taste - pick your own and as much as you like - it was an experience not to be missed

First time here - food is just okay, great selection, weren’t waiting to long, Something different decent experience.

This is the first time we have visited a Cosmo and I think they have a pretty standard set up, so if you enjoyed it elsewhere you will here. We wanted quick easy food after a day out sightseeing and this hit the mark. Good service and no queue when we arrived as soon as they opened at 5pm.

I reviewed Cosmo in 2015 and back then I gave it a glowing report. Unfortunately more recent visits have not been quite so wonderful. The range of food is still quite extensive but many "we make for you to order" stations were shut down. The plate stacks were cold and many of the trays were empty and not being replenished, even though it was only 12:45. I got the impression that the place was not being run on a budget and corners were being cut.

Wow! The food here is fantastic! Absolutely changed my opinion of an ‘all you can eat’ restaurant! £15.00 per adult (bargain) and food is gorgeous! The smaller children pay half price but the selection was incredible. It was very busy...but only waited 10 minutes for a table for 12 of us! I was very impressed with this place! Would I go back? That’s a yes!

The girl was rude and agresive, she shouted us saying that if we left the reception she cancelled our book. Normal food it's no the best. She was rasist.

I definitely would recommend booking well in advance. The waiting area was queued out the doors in disorganised chaos when we arrived for our table. Thankfully another person waiting told us to fight through the crowd to let the girl at reception know we were there. Then we had to wait for our name to be called. One of our party had to wait inside as over the crowd this was impossible to hear! Our table was booked for 7.30pm but we had to wait 20/25 minutes.

Very crowded waiting area with the hostess appearing to be under a lot of pressure. We were seated 30 minutes late despite booking, the place was very busy. Expect to wait up to an hour to be seated at busy times if you don’t reserve a table. Food is average but well priced and a lot of variety.
