    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!

    We had a wonderful cozy evening. In fact, it’s the best restaurant experience I’ve had in a long time. From the minute we walked in, we felt well taken care of. Every single staff member was kind and attentive and accommodated a change of table with absolute graciousness. Wine recommendations were excellent. Every single dish we ordered was out of this world. Do not skip dessert. Not a single complaint. Grazie mille!
