We were staying at Courtyard Marriot across the street and found this gem for a quick breakfast. The kids had pancakes and my wife and I had the breakfast sandwiches. They were on point - everything was delicious and made to order. Understand that this location is in an office building you have to enter the front of the building. Then it's down a hallway on the first floor, the guard will show you where if needed. The service was excellent.

Need a ZERO paid almost $12 for Tuna melt..wrong bread, bread nit toasted, extra mayo for no known reason, tuna nasty--My coworker ordered a panini with no sauce--she got shredded looking meat with a pile of sauce..We will not be back

Located on the first floor of an office building. Food made fresh to order. I ate breakfast there 3 times. The breakfast sandwich and french toast platter was great. Plenty food for a decent price!

Decent to-go spot I suppose. I ordered off Uber Eats to try it out. If you're looking for something quick on the go and can't stand fast food options try it out. Other than that it's oretty basic and straight forward food.

Sandwich menu. It could be bigger.

Thank you food gods, for placing this sublime cafe in an otherwise barren office park! Without Kosmos, I would be stuck brown bagging it every single Monday through Friday! I've only eaten lunch here twice but I'm already infatuated. On my first visit, I ordered a spicy chicken sandwich which was grilled Cajun chicken on a toasted sub roll with pesto, cheese, lettuce, and tomato. I would've never thought of combining pesto and Cajun but it was a great combination, and held together perfectly by the fresh, crusty roll. They only use Boar's Head meats so I'm looking forward to trying other sandwiches and paninis. But Lo, you ask, won't you grow weary of sandwiches? Fair point, which is why it's fabulous that they also have a hot and cold bar! As you can see in my photo, I tried a little bit of everything on my second visit.* I believe the veggie egg roll was oven baked since it wasn't dripping in oil like when you get them from a carryout. It was good- I mean, an egg roll's an egg roll. It hits the spot for me when I'm craving something fried. For my protein, I had the jerk chicken breast. It was flavorful and juicy, however the jerk sauce had an almost sweet taste rather than spice. I recommend it but only if you want good chicken, not if you're looking for heat. My two sides of scalloped potatoes and chickpea salad were great, especially for being cafeteria food. The potatoes had just the right amount of lightly browned cheese and were cooked evenly (I hate when you get a couple of potatoes that are raw)! The salad of chickpeas, black beans, onions, tomato, and avocado must have been the day's Latin cuisine item and I'm glad they made it! The ingredients were fresh and it's definitely something I'd buy regularly. Kosmos is also a good meeting space since they have plenty of tables, small and large. I've been there only during the lunch rush when it's crowded and noisy, so you want to go later if you're having a working lunch. The sandwich makers and cashiers are polite and the lines move quickly. *I would normally have selected a sensible salad but I was trying to be a good Yelper.

Kafe Kosmos is one of my favorite places to buy my lunch or eat with my coworkers. The restaurant is clean and the food is very good! I strongly recommend.

My extended family loves to visit this location. Many of the food items are Southern style and…read moretaste great, not too seasoned, and the portions are enough for 2 meals. But what I love most is the ambience. It has a warm, neighborhood feel when you visit. The large bar area reminds me of Cheers, a place where everyone knows your name. It can sometimes be a wait for cook to order meals, but I don't mind because you'll meet people to talk with. I definitely recommend you visit!

Ordered delivery and i can't say I would do it again. I had ordered years before and had a good…read morememory of it, so thought I would do it again. I was craving sides, and this place has tons of them. What I found during this experience was it was more quantity over quality. Everything was just kind of mushy and didn't really have a lot of flavor or taste. The best thing out of all of the five sides I ordered was the macaroni and cheese, and I had to add quite a bit of seasoning to make it palatable. The cheesy potatoes threw me, because there was no cheesiness to them. Also, the home fries were the same as the cheesy potatoes, so that meant to big piles of tasteless mush--hot sauce made it better. Also, there had to have been over a cup of onions combined in this box. I nibbled because I was hungry and sadly threw away the rest because I just couldn't eat it. I ordered the crab soup, and that was delicious. I would say though that the small size for the price paid is very questionable. As this was delivery, I can't be on service or ambience. Given my experience, I would not order again.

Service is always friendly and fast, and the food is packed with flavor you don't often find elsewhere Konjac Noodle Salad - Sour vinegar flavor with a nice kick. I loved the little konjac noodle bundles -- super bouncy and great at picking up the sauce. It's a perfect summer appetizer: refreshing with crisp veggies like cucumber and carrot but doesn't hold back on flavor. 3.5/5 Sour Soup Dumpling - Delicate skins with a savory pork broth that leans more comforting than sour. The filling falls apart as you bite into it and tastes like a mix of pork and vegetables. Simple, clean flavors 3/5 Spicy Beef Noodle Soup - My favorite dish so far! The broth is beefy, spicy, and rich with depth -- layered flavors that feel satisfying but not overwhelming. The meat was flavorful and chewy with fatty pieces that melt in your mouth. Loved the chewy, knife-cut-style noodles that soak up the broth, and the pickled veggies plus fresh cilantro kept it light and bright. 4.25/5 Cold Rice Noodle with Spicy Fried Chicken - Super sour but well-rounded -- flavorful without being sharp. I usually don't love rice noodles, but these were soft, bouncy, and satisfying. Surprisingly, the fried chicken stayed a bit crisp even in the broth. It's fried in a way that's drier and chewier, but that concentrated the flavor instead of making it actually taste dry. Great summer noodle dish 4/5 Signature Fruit Tea - Definitely on the syrupy side, which I expected, but still decent. Lots of blended fruit flavors -- sweet, slightly artificial, but enjoyable if you're in the mood for something fruity 2.5/5

Anyway, my best tip for you on this place is to come hungry because you're going to want to try everything on the menu...including the sides!

I ordered the 1/2 lb pork spare ribs, a side of mac and cheese, and a Cheerwine. The staff was nice and efficient, and the inside is pretty spacious with plenty of seating. You can also choose to sit outside, which has a nice amount of seating with umbrellas. As for the food... I was not impressed. I guess being from the South and knowing what good BBQ should taste like, this just wasn't it for me. The pork ribs were OVERLY salty, I promise you, my blood pressure spiked! The mac and cheese was decent for a restaurant. I wouldn't come back specifically for the ribs. If I did return, I might try something else, but I definitely wouldn't order the pork ribs again.

ABSOLUTELY HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE…read more I had tickets for The National and did an online search of nearby spots to have happy hour before the show. On Fogo de Chão's website, I was pleased to find a promotion stating that its happy hour was "all day, every day" and "in the dining room and bar." I was even more pleased to see a big "RESERVE NOW" button as part of the promotion. I made my reservation for 6 p.m., provided all my contact information, and included a note in the "Special Request" section specifically requesting two seats at the bar. The reservation was submitted and confirmation received at 3 p.m. Unfortunately, I was far from pleased when I arrived and the hostess said, "I see you have a reservation and your note, but the bar is first come, first served." I expressed my disappointment but stated that I would be fine seated in the dining room. She then hits me with, "Happy hour is only available in the dining room if you are having dinner." I then expain that the information on the website made no mention of either of those restrictions and that at no point in the reservation process was there any information that would indicate that reservations are for non-happy hour guests. A manager then stepped in and shared that I must have read the happy hour information incorrectlg and that the online service clearly states that reservations are for the dining room only. He then proceeded to explain that he would make an exception and allow me and my guest to have happy hour while seated in the dining room (which, by the way, was nearly empty). I was pretty annoyed about being made to feel like I was in the wrong and at no point getting an apology, but at least I finally had a seat and could order food and drinks. BUT that brief feeling of satisfaction didn't last because when the bill came, they charged us full price for our cocktails. To make matters worse, I wasn't able to have the bill corrected because I didn't have the time to spare before the show. I have included photos of the website's happy hour promotion and the reservation booking form.
