Everything was great, and appreciated the friendly service. Highly recommend checking this place out.
+ Fires of Vesuvius was our favorite cocktail. Strong flavor and great spice level.
+ Enjoyed the crudo. It was light and fresh, packed with flavor.
+ Monkey bread seems popular, so I don’t have much to add. I will say, it was larger than expected and pretty filling!
+ Definitely preferred the riggies over the rotalini. I just don’t think we had the palate for the broccoli rabe.
+ Panna cotta had three or four layers, so satisfying to take a spoonful.
+ Baba-yaki was interesting. Great texture, and fun to eat. I don’t think I ever tried amaro. It was definitely an adjustment.
Overall, it was a lovely and creative experience, with lots of little surprises throughout the evening.

Cafe Mars is one of the most creative dining experiences I’ve had in Brooklyn. The gel olives were super unique a really fun, flavorful dish that shows how playful their menu is. The anchovies with the pizza seasoning were also surprisingly good, packed with flavor and a perfect bite.
I tried the Riggies, which is originally an Ithaca, New York dish that’s normally made with chicken, but here they do a version with mussels. It ended up being really good and full of flavor definitely worth ordering if you want something different.
The decor is beautiful, with a cool, modern vibe, and the service is extremely friendly and attentive. Overall, a great spot if you’re looking for something creative and memorable in Gowanus.

Café Mars is such a funky place from their creative dishes to their interior design. The staff were all super friendly and welcoming throughout our time there!
My favorite was the girelle pasta. Very strong lemon flavor that reminded me of similar dishes I’ve tried in Italy.
Overall, we thought they were all tasty but not too memorable. Ended up being pretty pricey for each person (I somehow forgot to take all photos, but we’ve ordered more than what’s shown here).

The inside is cute and we appreciated the creativity! The food was 50/50: monkey bread and lemon pasta were ah-mazing and worth the trip! The fried figs, while individually delicious, was overall a clunky dish. The scallop dish missed the mark. The service was good, however, it was really odd to have the utensil drawer being restocked at our table multiple times during our meal.

Everything that was breaded and fried were excellent— the asparagus, mushroom. The breading was so light and crunchy and flavorful, and perfect with all the sauces that came with it. The monkey bread was amazing with the garlic butter. The lemon pasta was great as well. Portion sizes are on the smaller side.

We had an amazing experience at Café Mars, the food is as unique as the space, flavorful and delicious, some of the highlights were the scallops, girelle pasta and the ice cream sandwich. While the vibe is fun and relaxed, it’s a true fine dining experience full of creativity. Every detail has been thought out from the interior design to the pop-up thank you cards!. The service was outstanding and everyone was very friendly. Can’t wait to come back to explore more of the menu!

Solo dining on V-Day and I was treated like family from the moment I walked in. The staff is incredibly kind and hardworking, and all the food I tried crudo for the first time I loved every bite! What could’ve been a lonely night turned into a memorable experience. Above and beyond

Can’t stop day dreaming about the Garlic Butter Monkey Bread! Cafe Mars is not just mouth watering food, but a unique experience with the most incredible staff. Our waiter was not only well informed, but funny and friendly and made the night that much better. I recommend everything on the menu. Every dish that came out was delicious and sometimes quirky! From the ambiance to the impeccable service and mouthwatering food, it’s clear that they put a lot of care into creating an exceptional dining experience.

Came with a group of 5 for a birthday so we did the prix fixe menu. That set up was perfect for us, you got to try 1-2 bites of every single item on the menu. Specifically, we LOVED the meatball dumpling with sesame and the lemon pasta were excellent. Two friends do not eat pork and they were flawless in respecting that and maintaining the integrity of the dishes. Service was very friendly and enthusiastic about the culinary work. The decor and vibes are fun/kitschy, not your typical Italian spot with brick and old timey vibes, it’s modern and colorful. I would highly recommend a group dinner here.

The place is fun, the decor is great, the service was very attentive. Fun surprises, like a complimentary drink at the beginning of the meal. The cocktails had really strong flavors. The menu is interesting, features creative dishes that are well executed. The menu changes regularly which is great. Have been here twice and would come back again.
