Industrial Flex space with Natural lighting
II are Beautiful spaces. Both available rooms are blank slates that are very versatile. We started our evening in the smaller space as a cocktail party with live music and a grazing table for guest as they arrived. Then we transitioned to the larger space for dinner and the birthday...

Unique Bar/Rest in the heart of Capitol Hill Seattle
Life on Mars really exceeded our expectations. The food was great, as we're the cocktails. The space itself was a treat and the staff were incredibly helpful. We had such a good time, my partner and I both remarked the next day, that we'd want to host something...
