The person who greeted us was friendly and seated us earlier than the scheduled reservation. The food was excellent. The service was quite good, attending to our needs, but not hovering. A lovely place to share a meal- one could imagine being in italy! I will definitely return and highly recommend this restaurant.

From the moment I walked through the door I felt genuinely cared for by every member of the staff. The offerings were creative and went together perfectly; I felt like I was at a culinary Metropolitan Museum of Art! This wasn’t just a dinner, it was an experience. I travel all over this planet and have eaten at some of its best restaurants. None have combined food, art, science, and soul like Cafe Mars.
