We had a wonderful experience at the restaurant. We were celebrating my husband’s birthday and they made him feel special. The food was very good and we particularly loved the steak, salmon, and branzino. We tried several appetizers: octopus, mussels, and oysters and were very good as well. The only downside is that it was raining and foggy and couldn’t see the NY skyline, but the rest decoration and ambience was very good. I would definitely go back!

Gorgeous setting. We had river views in summer there are outside tables. A stylish restaurant with a central bar area. The food was fast and delicious and had a great vegetarian selection. About 5mins walk from York Street. Really can’t recommend this place enough.

This place is such a gem - from the moment you get to the door, you can tell Cafe Mars is not your typical restaurant. The decor is colorful and vibrant; it just screams "walk in here and get ready to have a great time". The staff are warm, entertaining, and knowledgeable. I have had nothing but 10/10 service on all of my visits here. And of course, the food is fantastic. Chef Paul truly works wonders here. Run, don't walk to Cafe Mars!
