First impressions are a lasting impression! I actually didn't know Jose Andres had a restaurant at Cosmo, and when I passed by it during the day, I was so excited I made a reservation on the spot for later that night. The ambience and decor was awesome! Colorful and very spanish, definitely reminded me of Spain. One of the tables even had foosball under that you could play with. now that was... awesome.\n\nWe were seated promptly, and because it was a monday after EDC weekend, a lot of items on the menu were not available. It was saddening.. we were so hungry and all of the popular dishes were gone :( Anyways, we ordered:\n\n-Croquetas De Pollo- I love this dish at bazaar! Had to get it here, it was just as yummy but a little bit more salty.. It comes served in a shoe. When I asked the server why, she explained it was the brand Spanish Camper- the oldest shoe brand in Spain from a small village. Jose Andre wanted to support their company, so he created this \"food on the run\".. haha\n-Jamon serrano Fermin- delicious! Came with little bread sticks and it was so so good.\n-Ensaladilla rusa- ultimate spanish tapa: a salad of potatoes, mayo, and imported conserved tuna with spanish trout roe- after mixing it together, it was very rich and flavorful. Yum.\n-La Serena con membrillo- La Serena cheese, walnut dust, and quince paste cone- wasn't a big fan of this, the cheese was overpowering, usually love Jose Andres' cones but not this one.\n-Ostras Gin and Tonic- oysters with lemon, gin and tonic. So refreshing and light! These oysters were small and sweet- loved it! although we both had a slight allergic reaction to these oysters.\n-Paella valenciana rafael vidal- couldn't leave here without trying a paella! only paella they had left.. it had chicken, rabbit, and green beans, and was absolutely yummy. We finished every last piece of rice haha.\n\nOverall extremely yummy meal. Our server was very gracious and recommended and explained the dishes very well. She was like a Jose Andres dictionary- she really knew her information on the dishes and what was on it. \n\nThe six dishes left us feeling satisfied for two- not too full and not too hungry. Total was about $120 without tip and we ordered a drink. I saw some reviews complaining about the prices and small portions, but hey- its Vegas. Also, Jose Andres' prices and portions are always consistent- Bazaar is similar to Jaleo in terms of that. This place isnt as good as Bazaar in LA (that place has a special place in my heart) but if I am back in Vegas, I would definitely come back and eat here!
