About this restaurant

  • Great for creative cocktails
  • Good for special occasions
  • Innovative
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.

                                                    This is a really interesting restaurant with creative and fun decor. I especially liked the use of plants and cacti — it gives the place a fresh and unique vibe. The waiters are super friendly. Shoutout to the waiter with the mustache — he’s the best! The food was delicious. Definitely try the crispy balls — they’re awesome! The cotton candy drink was fun, though a bit too sweet for my taste. We tried a few different dishes, and I highly recommend the ribeye — it was a standout. The owner was very attentive and even came by to ask for our feedback. She also took a picture with us, which was a nice touch. Overall, it’s a great spot to hang out with friends or family. Highly recommended!
