A New York on Tap pick

Mars 2112

1633 Broadway · at 51st St.
Midtown West, Manhattan

In 2026

Closed; now Din Tai Fung

Checked October 15, 2026.

Overview

It's a bar and it's a restaurant, and it's on Mars. What more do you need to know? If you haven’t been and think you can manage to eat and drink with your tongue in your cheek then it's time you paid it a visit.

History

The future lasted until 2012

Our old listing put it simply: it's a bar and a restaurant, and it's on Mars. Mars 2112 was built in 19991, and all it asked was that you eat and drink with your tongue in your cheek.

In January 2012 it was going out of business1, and the Observer reported that Mars 2112 at 1633 Broadway had closed1.

The address came back down to Earth in July 2024, when Din Tai Fung opened in the space that used to be Mars 21122.
