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.

We had 8 in our group for a Christmas Hanukkah dinner celebration. The restaurant was busy and the staff was incredibly profession, polite and attentive. Nick was our server and was great. Stopped by the table numerous times to check on us (If we needed anything else, etc...) Also never felt rushed. Just an overall fantastic experience. Will go back again! All of us enjoy edthe entire evening.

The food was absolutely delicious, with the creamiest pastas and delicious chocolate mousse cake for dessert. Staff was friendly and accommodating. I did find the restaurant too loud, especially because it is quite small. Overall a great place!

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!
