5 /5 Mark P: I recently visited COSMO Reading, and it truly felt like heaven-on-earth for an "all-you-can-eat" experience! The variety is massive, with dishes from every continent, and they even have a cool robot that takes you to your table. |I visited on Valentines day, they were fully packed with lots of booking, but walks in were generously admitted, and the hostess there did her best to accomodate me for a single sitting I was given a limited 1 hour time window to eat as were all walk ins, where possible. It was enough for me! But if you want a leisurely meal, please do book ahead as this is a highly saught after quality place, especially on publich holidays and weekends. At around £30 per person, the value is unbeatable for the quality of service and the vibrant atmosphere.
Top Tips: skip the sushi and the heavy carbs. The sushi is very rice-based and can be a bit of a filler, so it’s much better to avoid the bland rice and save your stomach space for the high-quality meats like the Lamb Rogan Josh, Butter Chicken, all the Thai curries, English style roast, and a huge variety of seafood! One pont of note - the quality of the the dessert section is what I term BRITISH LEVEL; it was surprisingly bland with a very samey, buttery taste across the board. Even the chocolate fountain tasted more like butter than real chocolate! Ultimately, you come here for the excellent savory food and the top-tier hospitality rather than the sweets, and on that front, COSMO definitely delivers.
