I was worried by some poor reviews on Trip Advisor but having enjoyed the similar restaurant in printworks (pre 20121) and one in Blackpool we wanted to go. It was very good. The grandkids (1 vegetarian the other a fussy eater) had a great time and my wife and I both enjoyed our food.

Came here today with my daughter who had been looking forward to the food all day. What a waste of time as well as money the food was dry and bland! Without many options! The food Wasn’t replenished the whole time we were there. Was told by who I expect was the manger “what do you expect with fried food” shocking customer services told him I would write a review he said it’s a free would do what you like!! Half the food stations were empty there was no steak option on the Teppanyaki and was told they rotated the meats which is not stated on the menu! The tables were dirty and the bathroom was appalling every toilet was soiled and not clean! Again I brought this to a member of staff where the manage was in ear shot! No apology or a refund just enjoy your evening! The other staff were friendly enough but seemed like they were walking on egg shells around the disgusting manger! Wouldn’t recommend!

Food is okay, it’s an average buffet place, felt just like an all inclusive. not worth travelling for though. The place itself is quite dirty (tables feel gross and unclean). Really could use some better air-con in there as it felt really hot and made me feel slightly claustrophobic. The toilets were absolutely filthy and stunk, which was disgusting. Would not recommend or return.

Weve been going to Cosmo for a nimbet of years. On the whole, we have found it to be a very enjoyable experience. However, some of the food could be a little hotter.

Let's be honest, you don't go to an all you can eat buffet restaurant expecting fine dining. You go to have a quick and filling tasty meal at a reasonable price, and this is exactly what I got on my recent visit. We visited early on a Monday evening so the restaurant wasn't massively busy. We were greeted by a friendly member of staff who quickly showed us to our table. Drinks were ordered and arrived promptly and we made our way to the buffet. Despite what some other reviews have said, there was a plentiful supply of each dish on offer and a wide selection available. As expected the food was not of the highest quality, but tasty enough and very enjoyable. In my opinion the Indian selection was the best. The behaviour of some of the other guests left a lot to be desired - piling plates high and eating while walking back to their tables. I'd imagine that the place would be quite chaotic at very busy times. All in all, it is what it is, and I'd go back if I was ever in the area again.

We tried this restaurant over the weekend as a family of three and was left deflated by how unorganised the infrastructure was laid out. We did pre-book too and stating that one of the party was visually impaired yet we were placed on a table that had longer walking distance to the Buffett! The restaurant was far too busy and guests couldn’t pass each other due to the lay out of the place and what actually crossed my mind is how things would pan out in an emergency such as a fire, it worries me how constructive the plan is as everyone has problems just passing each other already. I felt this venue was over booked and needs to be assessed as a priority because the capacity needs a review due to the venue layout. The food wasn’t ‘Amazing’ and was very bland, the only thing I enjoyed was the salad! The waitresses were kind and pleasant which was the only highlight of the restaurant. I wish I could give a better review…. But it’s best to give honesty! Although we won’t be visiting again

If you want a variety of foods from a variety of countries at an all inclusive fixed price then this is the place to come. Yes it is a buffet and you have to serve yourself but that's why you come, and yes you have to fight with all the other customers but that's to be expected. The food can be a bit hit and miss but generally it is good and plentiful and you can go back as many times as you want in the allotted time. We'd had enough in an hour ( you have 1 and a half ) The drinks are also cheap (£4.70 a pint)

Buffet lunch. Greated by a lovely lady, whom escorted to our table. Good layout of food, but unfortunately lots of food cross contamination. If you have allergies, food intolerance or any food requirements such as vegan, vegetarian and halal, unfortunately it is the wrong place.

I seldom write a review but this was the worst restaurant experience I have ever had. We arrived for our booking and the staff were distracted. We were shown to a table in the middle of a restaurant where all the other diners were around the edges. It felt intimidating. I asked of we could move to the edge where we would be more comfortable, and this seemed to be a huge problem, with the server repeating that I had to go and ask the person who seated us – most of the other tables were empty and, they confirmed, not booked? Anyway, I did ask, and we were ‘allowed’ to move, eventually. Then we ordered drinks, and we were charged for the meal with the drinks up front, which I don’t object to, but some warning on arrival would have been nice. On to the food. Obviously, as a buffet, you take a plate and choose the food. But all the plates were wet, some were cracked and some looked dirty. The cutlery we had was so worn you could taste the metal. The areas around the covered food dishes were covered in food, and many of the dishes were empty. There was little choice, and most of the starters I chose were cold. The mains were not good at all. They were hot but seemed bland. A few examples - I love noodles, but I couldn’t eat them as they were chewy and greasy. I chose some green beans and they were cold. There was some chilli char sui but the meat was chewy like it had been there for a long time. The ‘crispy duck’ was a grey, unappealing lump and there seemed to be lots of dishes with reformed ‘chicken balls’ as the main ingredient. There was also a strange fishy smell around the food area and I went back to my table wondering what on my plate was safe to eat. While in the main’s area, I tried to ask one of the buffet servers something, but they ignored me and carried on talking to each other with their backs to me. So while the hot food was cold, the desserts, which would normally be chilled, were warm. The cakes seemed ok but were impossible to pick up with the serving tongues and crumbled. The Eton Mess was just whipped cream with a few unidentifiable berries (2 in my case). I didn’t try the ice cream, but it looked okish. Finally, the general appearance of the place. This could be a nice restaurant with a little care, attention, new furniture, clean plates and cutlery, customer service and actual cooking. But the toilets smelled very bad, the restaurant floors were sticky and there was a big slip hazard in the form of something brown someone had dropped which was there the whole time we were it the restaurant. These are below the basics of health and safety you could expect from a food outlet. Did I complain? No I didn’t. I am a polite, patient person who tries to find something good in everything, but my patience was tested from the start with the issue over the table. As I had paid up front I felt obliged to either try to eat or to leave, and I didn’t have time to find another restaurant. Even for the ‘£20-£30 per person’ cost as stated on the website, the profit margin must be enormous, based on the assumption that most of the food is bulk bought frozen and reheated. I understand that you pay a premium in a restaurant to be served, and this was a self-serve, but the little contact I had with the staff was at best vague and at worst rude. It was a real waste of my money and time, so bad that I would never go there again. There are plenty of clean restaurants with delicious food to go to in Manchester, sadly this isn’t one of them. I am genuinely sorry of this offends the people who work a Cosmo but the management needs to do a lot better.

50 minute wait after being told 35 minutes, we’re sat in an area with about 50 other people and the ceiling was leaking so the chairs and floor were soaking, we’re only seated after reminding the woman we were still waiting, upstairs was absolutely packed and no organisation or order in sight, each time we got a new plate I had to get up and ask someone to clear the previous plates from our table, kids were running around almost knocking everyone’s plates over and there was no structure or line just a giant huddle of people , definitely need better trained staff or structure plan for busy Saturday nights, waste of money , after waiting 50 minutes we were only allowed the table for an hour and 20 minutes, with the chaos of the floor we only managed 3 plates each and 1 dessert before having to leave, horrible evening, shame because the food was decent

Esta fue nuestra primera vez en Cosmo, pero hemos estado en el antiguo restaurante llamado Red Hot Buffet antes muchas veces, lo cual fue definitivamente mejor que el Cosmo. Lo primero que notamos fue que las escaleras que conducían hacia arriba estaban bastante sucias. para limpiar el arroz viejo de los asientos obviamente desde la noche anterior, ya que eran las 12 en punto del domingo, así que estaba en primera sesión, luego el camarero les pidió a mis hijos que se levantaran para poder trabajar allí. niños mayores de edad, pero mi muchacho es alto para su edad a los 11 años, por lo que dijeron que pagará el precio completo a pesar de que no come en ninguna parte lo que un adulto come broma absoluta.los platos se pegan y se pierden los viejos alimentos que están en ellos definitivamente no se lavan correctamente, así que tuvimos que mover 3 platos de la rejilla para obtener un 1 limpio cada vez que subesCOMIDAahora, la comida que no podría fallar en otras necesidades debe ser más caliente, solo caliente, y eso es más que todo, pero la elección es increíble, con diferentes gustos, así que 10 de cada 10 para elegir.Después de pagar con la tarjeta, procedimos a bajar las escaleras hacia la salida. Una niña preguntó si habíamos guardado el recibo, el cual teníamos y luego dice que puede verlo, ya que muchas personas no han pagado y han salido. Manténgalo, esto es extraño. Nunca me han pedido mi recibo. Alguna vez he visto algún tipo de estafa que me ha puesto mal gusto por haber devuelto la vergüenza, ya que este lugar podría ser mucho mejor, pero probablemente esté gestionado por una mala gestión.

I was very dissapointed when no steak was available.. or salt & peeper chicken wings.. the salmon was very tasteless this occassion and my friend wasnt happy with scallops.. i spoke with staff who told me to call before arrival to check what is available on menu that day.. the ice cream machine never works ! Pots of cheap mousse as replacements taste like air & are awful. Asked staff member for salt and was told they were where food is.. no offer to get it ! Great customer service.. many seem young staff. The dessert selection is penny sweets, dry bitesize cake, popcorn and fruit not much variety.. however the duck and pancakes were nice also enjoyed chilli duck with tai rice combo.. seating area not very spacious feeling compact not much room between tables.. where we was seated also, my friends wasnt to impressed which was unfortunate

Enjoyed an excellent meal here yesterday. Huge choice of foods from different parts of the world, all hot, appetising and freshly made. Great daytime value. Tables were cleared promptly, staff were charmimg and efficient, especially HAE (?) - sorry if I got your name wrong. The handwashing facility near the drinks station was very useful and appreciated. All in all a veryenjoyable experience. One word of warning though, avoid half term when the restaurant is teeming with children running about with plates of hot food, there are long waits for a table and the restaurant is very noisy. We called the week before (half term) but didn't stop for the reasons given but are so glad that we came back when it was quieter. Great place, great food and great price.

Visited here during half term with my son and daughter and grandchildren.. we booked a table as we thought it would be very busy and we weren’t wrong.. Our waitress was very nice and our drinks came quickly.. There was lots of choice but there were a lot of empty dishes which didn’t get filled up during our time there.. what was there was nice and the children enjoyed It although the ice cream machine was broken.. would visit again, maybe in an evening when I believe there is more choice

Visited Cosmo as a family meal for our baby daughters birthday. First of all the food was fantastic, everything was hot and fresh, and a lot of things are cooked in front of you (the lamb chops were outstanding).Secondly the girls who were waiting on our table, and the tables around us were amazing, always paying attention to our two daughters and smiling and saying hello, making the experience special for them.I’m not normally a fan of buffet restaurants, but we will be returning in 6 weeks for our older daughters birthday.

Traveled a fair away just to try this restaurant. First impression are good and a good selection of food. Went to the teppanyaki section, and was greeted by a very bad attitude chef who had no manners at all. when asked what kind of sauce we could have, he just pointed to a sign without any eye contact at all. And just threw the food on a plate, like customers are beggers. Really think the restaurant owners need to have harsh words with him and give him new training in how to serve customers.

Went here yesterday with my family and it was such a pleasure! Food was magnificent, so much choice and the quality was brilliant. We was seated in a booth where we greeted by our wonderful waitress Sophie. We ordered our drinks and then went to help ourself at the buffet! I was spoiled for choice. Stations were clean and presentable, table and cutlery was spotless. Plates were removed at the end of each course by Sophie, I couldn’t sing her praises more. She was always checking up on us asking how the meal was and checking if we wanted any more drinks (tea,coffee). Her customer service skills were impeccable and she always approached with a friendly smile. All staff were appropriately dressed and they made the visit extra special- special thanks to sophie for looking after us.Cosmo expect to see us again soon!5***

We queued then when we got to the front got seated straight away as we had booked. Ordered oh drinks and head to the buffet. It was very crowded and took to long to get food, alot of things had ran out such as popadoms,garlic mushrooms,eclairs etc. This further limited my options being veggie, I donot think the price is value for money when you are a veggie alot of it was bland, the sagg paneer was awful. The ice cream machine wasn't working, dessert section extremely lacking. The layout was better at world hot buffet as there was a big enough space for people to walk round without bumping into each other. Wouldn't hurry back.

The breakfast is incredible with a fantastic selection to suit everybody's taste and needs. No need to book, just turn up and help yourself. The manager and all the staff are very friendly and very helpful. Highly recommend!

We came here for a couples nightout, little we did know that there is basically nothing to eat, or its so smelly or poor wuality or bad looking that you won’t want yo eat anyway or the chefs are not there or the machines dont work... whichever way you look at it, its nothing like you think or it sounds. No fish, No asian(pakistani) food, No clean standard ice cream machine.. you’re expected to put your hand in that ice cream tub and take a scoop !

As a family of four, there was something for everyone here and I thought the quality of the food was excellent. In addition, the service was brilliant - it was my son's 13th birthday and Michael, the manager arranged for him to have a jug of Mocktail which he loved, along with a few freebie bits and pieces. Caitlyn, our waitress also brought cakes with a candle for us to sing happy birthday too. It is a big busy place really well managed, very efficient.

We booked a table for 7, the queue outside was ridiculously long but we just went pretty much straight up because we’d booked. The soft drinks are bottomless and all the food was delicious!! Really nice restaurant but it is busy.

We were so looking forward to our breakfast. The website promised us lots of yummy choice including jacket potato and garlic bread. Neither were available. The sausages and bacon were cooked on a rack with coals underneath that meant they arrived on the plate covered in black bits. I didn't even try the bacon, my partner had one bite and left it. The sausages were tasteless and had a grey look to them. They were left. Both the steamed and scrambled eggs looked rubbery. Didn't try them. Fortunately the black pudding, beans and mushrooms were OK, as was the French toast. The chef did his best with the food. The manager was not bothered in the slightest about our constructive comments. Clearly it is a small price to pay, maybe put the price up and offer edible food. It has now put us off visiting the buffet in the evening too.

I was taken to this restaurant for my birthday. The concept is good,All You Can Eat from various countries. We booked a table,which is advisable. Because it was busy the food was fresh,but several of the dishes were empty and you had to wait for them to be refilled.I adore the Chinese starters and curries but they didn't have any Prawn toast,Sweet and Sour pork or any Curries.There were quite a few Indian and Thai Curries.The choice of desserts is extensive and very tasty. My son has been previously and said he was disappointed this time as other dishes he'd had weren't available. The staff are very friendly and very hard working.I don't think we will go again.I would like to advise that the tables are very close together and you do get jostled about.

Ordered using just eat. Have been waiting almost two hours for a drink and a cookie dough and some macarons. No update or anything delivery time keeps getting pushed further and further. Can’t contact them as they don’t have any means to contact them online and no phone number is available. Really disappointed with the lack of any customer service. Ordered this as a treat for myself as I can’t cook due to illness and am very let down.

WOW...My 1st time here today, I had a full English and a cappuccino...firstly on arrival the lovely lady Messi, was very friendly and seemed to really care about giving the customer a fabulous experience here. The food was amazing,huge plate, gorgeous bacon,no fat and the best sausages I've had in years....it was faultless and presented beautifully. My cappuccino was in a BIG mug and it was hot,frothy and amazing 🤩 totally a fabulous experience,I really enjoyed the food. Thank you Chef.... *I would like to say that good food is good food, the best feature was the service and attention given to me from Messi, it wasn't just me. Every single person that came through the door while I was there,was welcomed, asked how they were and all made to feel special* That for me is why I will be returning.👍😍👏 HIGHLY RECOMMEND DIDSBURY CORAL... HUGE thanks to Messi 🤩💯

We came to Manchester to visit our daughter at Uni. We were hungry and went to a few places on the same road, but walked straight out. This place came up in google. You can smell the food in the air coming down the road. It has a nice relaxing chilled vibe inside, reggae music playing. From a family of chefs who respect the art. Well what can I say we were not disappointed. We ordered the jerk chicken, brown stew chicken, mutton, steam veg, coleslaw and dumplings & a red stripe. Highly recommended, the food was on point, big portions wholesome full of flavour food. I’m a hungry guy and the standard portion was more than enough. We all could not get enough, amazing, well done you guys are doing a great job, no nonsense Jamaican Food.
