Cosmo's Bar & Lounge

Great drinks. Scrumptious pork belly tacos. Lana was the real deal!Please don't come during the week as I want to gatekeep and always have a place to sit.

I was a bit wary when my wife said, "We need to try this place. My Uber driver raved about it." Let me get this straight - it's a dive bar with Vietnamese food? Why doesn't that make sense? It does. This is a magical place. I'm not sure I've had a check before that had an Old Fashioned, some Pork Belly Tacos and Tater Tots. I think my wife was planning to treat it as a restaurant, and the food choices are plentiful. I walked in, looked around and said, "My bar!" so you could just go for drinks, as well. (If you do go for drinks, have some egg rolls and dumplings with them. You're welcome.) Here's a relatively strange test I give many restaurants, and very few are successful - How good are the Tater Tots? Decent Tater Tots are crispy outside. Great Tater Tots are crispy outside and creamy inside. World Class Tater Tots are crispy, creamy and have sea salt. Don't ask me to explain it - if you know, you know. These are World Class Tater Tots, which then gives me faith in the entire menu. I wasn't sure if I wanted Mekong Delta (spicy ribeye) tacos or Seoul (pork belly) tacos, so I asked for help, and was told to start with the pork belly. Now, I have to go back for the ribeye, because the pork belly was amazing. Drinks are very good. Food is amazing. Service is great, with a side of quirky, but in a good way. I may have to start trusting my wife's Uber drivers more.

The best in East Dallas ! The food, the vibe, the bartenders.. Welcome to the best of what Dallas has to offer !

Cute spot, went with some people after work, chatted, got drinks and some food. I got the Vietnamese Fried Rice, which was pretty good and flavoful.

This place is unreal. You wouldn't expect the bustling atmosphere from the quiet shopping center Cosmo's resides in, but upon entering you are transported. Cosmo's is not try hard, feels genuinely cool, and is unusually unbuttoned compared to the typical Dallas bar or restaurant. The food is delicious, the kimchi tater tots are a must try: the tangy kimchi sauce and melted cheese on the bottom make them the most satisfying bar snack. The chicken pho with beef broth was also top tier. Everything is well priced here.Service is quick and they give you a written tab which is kind of nice. Cosmo's feels like a super cool, super secret club you shouldn't tell anyone about.

Finally got to try the beef pho! Best I had in Dallas hands down. It's so so flavorful!! It is very loud in the lounge so it's impossible to have a conversation with the rest of the table but the food is excellent.

Service was awesome food even better!!!! The Oxtail Pho is the best I've ever had. Dumplings where also awesome.

This bar has fantastic food and an excellent vibe. I love the decorations- it almost feels like you're in a old record store mixed with a diner. We sat at the bar and ordered a glass of wine and an espresso martini. I really enjoyed the vegetarian vermicelli noodle dish which was so creative and flavorful. I love the seasoned tofu and chopped spring rolls in it! Our food came out quickly and so did our drinks. It was pretty busy so I expected to wait a bit, but was pleasantly surprised. The clientele were super friendly and everyone cheered when they played the opening game of the Ranger season!

Good place for chill late night vibes and good Asian bar food. Cosmo's was fun and a cute concept inside. Food was great, I really liked the oxtail pho, egg rolls, and lychee martini. LOVED the crispy wings and Vietnamese coffee espresso martini. Martini was super smooth and better than a regular espresso martini. The espresso to alcohol ratio was perfect. Not a fan of the kimchi tater tots, some flavor was missing, and cheese was at the bottom and made the tater tots soggy after a little. That's just a personal preference. I highly recommend this place. Cuter for a date night spot, good Asian food, or a chill night with friends!

Waited 20 min to get service then didnt serve pho anymore because they didnt serve us in time
