"When Nico Russell retooled Oxalis, his seasonal tasting menu restaurant, into Cafe Mado, he wanted to better meet the needs of his Prospect Heights neighbors, who were looking for casual, flexible dining after the pandemic. What they got was a laid-back all-day cafe where Mr. Russell quietly juxtaposes refined technique and unorthodox flavor to build a menu of perennial favorites. His Caesar salad is boosted with horseradish. Fries are crispy strands perfumed with herbes de Provence and served with aioli. But it’s the ever-changing seasonal vegetable dishes that really show off his brilliance: bean purée with charred sweet peppers, a pea green salad and crescents of spiky fried pumpkin dusted with cherry blossom. Cafe Mado turns a neighborhood weeknight out into something truly special."

How to Spend a Perfect 72 Hours Eating Your Way Through New York
“After spending time the park, pop by Cafe Mado for a refreshing drink before dinner. They’ve got everything from spritzes and martinis to wine and housemade zero-proof cocktails (we’re especially partial to the Grand Fir, best described as a “Norwegian Sprite”). They also make their own nitro cold brews, including one that incorporates raspberries from the greenmarket.” - Deanna Ting
