About this restaurant

Modern kitchen redefining expectations by blending innovative service with elevated dining. Serving globally inspired, made from scratch plates and cocktails.

Our journey began with a simple idea: to venture into uncharted territory, blending robotics with elevated dining to push the boundaries of what a dining experience can be. Our menu is crafted around a spirit of breaking boundaries since, in space, there are no bounds. Each dish and cocktail is an invitation to taste something unexpected—a fusion of cultures, and styles that feels both familiar and surprising.

While our playful robot servers glide by, delivering your food and drinks with a wink toward the future, Space Cowboy is deeply human at heart. Our team is a collection of creators who infuse their own stories and passions into every sip and bite.

The atmosphere was cozy and dark, with clouds and cacti adding a unique vibe. There’s no full bar just a cocktail lounge, but the drinks were excellent. We tried the Alien Blood and Venus Seduction, both of which were delicious. For dessert, we had the sticky toffee pudding and it was really good perfect for a party of 2.

The food was incredible - so much so we hardly took any photos! Will absolutely be back! FYI - make sure you’re ready for your next app/meal when you order, because it comes out almost immediately! Recommend: space balls, shishito peppers, corn ribs, inked seafood risotto.

Half the dishes did not come through their signature robot, which kind of ruined the experience.

A cute spot with some delicious items on the menu. Mocktails and cocktails were phenomenal. Will preface by saying the cute little robot trolley things don’t necessarily bring most of your food during the busier times. They only have 3 for the whole restaurant so we just got our drinks delivered on them. Parking is minimal as well.

I went to this restaurant for Mother’s Day expecting a special experience, but instead, I was served a dish that contained an allergen I specifically communicated I could not have. This wasn’t just a minor oversight—it was a serious health risk. What made it worse was how the situation was handled. There was no real ownership, no apology with any sincerity, and no meaningful effort to make it right in the moment. I followed up with an email after the incident, hoping for at least some acknowledgment or assurance that they take allergy concerns seriously, but I have yet to receive any response. If you or a loved one has food allergies, I strongly caution you against dining here. It’s clear that they are not equipped—or simply not willing—to take allergies seriously.

Good food, but it was way too hot and I was sweating. Also, there was a lot of flies which is very annoying considering the price point of a restaurant
