"Mara, chef Gavin Kaysen’s newest restaurant, was perhaps the biggest restaurant of 2022 — and the cocktail bar is on equal par. The wraparound bar is framed with a series of glowing, golden alcoves, inspired by the tall silhouettes of Minneapolis’s flour mills. A low, plush booth snakes along the opposing wall. The cocktails lean aromatic, and mirror Kaysen’s Mediterranean-influenced menu: A classic Old Fashioned is prepared with fig and hazelnut; the MADhaus infused with currant and wild bergamot." - Eater Staff
