Wide range of food available though most patrons seemed to be solely interested in stacking their plate in crab legs. Quality was reasonable, nothing outstanding but all fairly tasty.
Did not like being asked for a gratuity before even setting foot in the restaurant. Short wait to get in around 10.30am, the queue was significantly longer by the time I left. I recommend booking online. You can skip the queue if you have MGM Status or by paying.
Reserved for 9 am slot for a brunch, large selection of various foods, stayed the whole 1.5 hours allotted to feast on appetizers, main dishes, and desserts. Non-alcoholic beverages are free but you do have to request them through your waiter. People started to pile up at the front as we were leaving, so consider making a reservation if you are planning to visit. Considering we didn't eat lunch at all that day, the price tag isn't too bad, considering Vegas.
We visited the Wicked Spoon Buffet at The Cosmopolitan with early reservations, so there was no wait. The dining time limit was 90 minutes, but we finished within about 45 minutes due to the limited appeal of the food offerings. Overall, the food quality was average at best. Aside from the smoked salmon rolls, which I enjoyed, most items were underwhelming. The sushi, in particular, was below par. The overall quality felt comparable to a standard $15 Chinese buffet rather than a premium Las Vegas buffet experience. Table service could be improved, as used plates were not cleared promptly. The bone marrow station was an interesting concept, but it lacked flavor, and there was little guidance on how it was meant to be enjoyed or paired with accompaniments. One concerning experience was that my child felt uneasy after eating the French toast, despite being a very light eater. While this may be subjective, it did affect our overall impression of the meal. On a positive note, the restrooms outside were beautifully designed and well maintained. Overall, the experience did not meet expectations given the reputation and pricing of the buffet.

Worth every single penny! We took our adult kids for Christmas Day brunch. Booked a prepaid reservation for 2:30 PM. Arrived at 2 PM, waited in a couple lines, sat at our table at 2:40 PM. Let me just say that the ladies and gents handling the process up front were PHENOMENAL!! They were working their tails off but were extremely kind and friendly and so very efficient.
Our server, Rodrigo, was absolutely delightful. He suggested adding the bottomless mimosas and wow, what a fantastic idea that was. He visited our table countless times. Drinks were always full. Rodrigo was so fun and engaging and made our experience a total blast. The restaurant was insanely busy but Rodrigo was so attentive, it felt like he was our own personal server. Truly THE standout person for our entire stay in Las Vegas.
THE FOOD:
Oh man, where to begin? Collectively, the four of us tried nearly every option and it was all perfectly prepared, presented, and utterly delicious. No bad choices whatsoever. Many, many options for seafood (crab legs, shrimp, sushi, more), poultry (AMAZING TURKEY, chicken, duck), tons of meat options. Rice dishes, potatoes galore, veggies, yummy kale salad, endless breads, pizza, pho, cooked to order entrees, and a huge dessert island.
I had read some negative reviews and was honestly not quite sure what to expect but I have to say, were these folks at the same restaurant as me? Because we were blown away with the entire experience!! Food was phenomenal, front of house staff were excellent. Kitchen team were rock stars, providing an endless stream of sweet and savory dishes, smiles everywhere.
Wicked Spoon has us talking about making Vegas a Christmas tradition. Thank you, Wicked Spoon and Cosmopolitan Hotel, for a great time!
I visited with two other families—friends and relatives. We arrived around 11 AM and waited in line for over an hour. Even though people were finishing their breakfast or brunch, we had to wait for tables to clear out. Waiting in line seems to be a staple of American culture now, and we’re quite used to it; chatting with the group made the time pass quickly.
There were three separate lines at the entrance, including ones for walk-ins and specific cardholders. We had a card ourselves, but it didn't apply to this specific line, so we waited with everyone else. Back in the day, Vegas buffets were known for being cheap with plenty of coupons and promotions, but that’s a thing of the past. Prices are higher now, and those old-school coupons are hard to find. That said, if you’re looking for a 'must-visit' buffet in Vegas, I highly recommend Wicked Spoon.
