Overall a good experience! No wait times, quick service, and good vibes. Their menu offers a wide range of options, from tacos 🌮 and burritos to salads and appetizers. The portions are generous, the atmosphere is lively and fun, with colorful decor and upbeat music. The drink menu is extensive, with a wide selection of margaritas, specialty cocktails, and craft beers. Love their Margaritas 🍸 and wings!
Stopped in with a coworker for lunch on a weekday and was quickly seated and greeted. Tried their beer cheese dip and chips, it was pretty good, with only a slight beer flavor and definitely wasn’t as spicy as the menu and server made it out to be. Also tried their original salsa – it was thick, not saucy and it was tasty too. Entrée consisted of their Tinga Taco – the marinade on the chicken was great! The beans and rice that came with it was just OK, but tasted better with lots of hot sauce.
The restaurant has a cool, authentic theme and décor and the menu is loaded with interesting, unique southwestern style food. It’s definitely not the typical Mexican joint, slightly more upscale of a menu. I’d definitely return.
It's hard to beat half priced drafts and wings during happy hour. I always get my wings naked so they come out crunchy and juicy. It's rarely too busy here, but also never dead. Love it.

I wish I have come to Mad Mex earlier. I have heard about the place from friends but didn't understand the hype. I understand now! If you like Chipotle (or don't like Chipotle) Mad Mex is a higher class restaurant for burrito and bowl lovers! Wow! Its a sit-down restaurant, but they serve your food within five minutes or less! Yes! The food came within less than 5 minutes! The burrito was out of this world! Not only that, they put the salsa and guacamole on the side so you can add them onto the burrito however you want. That's super smart! I don't think I will ever go back to Chipotle! The food here is so much better and you get your food much quicker her compared to waiting in line at Chipotle!
My friends and I had a great time! Our server was excellent. However, we were a little disappointed in this location because their steamer was broken and they couldn’t make any burritos. Otherwise, this is a smart pick for anyone looking for a good restaurant with good food and a nice atmosphere.
My boyfriend and I had a delightful time at Mad Mex! We were seated promptly, enjoyed the festive decor and music, and found the staff extremely helpful to make drink and food recommendations! Staff was also extremely patient, offered excellent service, and provided food and drinks that were delightful! We will definitely be back! Thank you for the positive experience🙂
Servers were prompt, friendly and attentive. I ordered my go to Don Julio margarita and Mad Max steak burrito. Drinks were top notch and food quality as expected.
I always love Mad Mex no matter which location I end up around the city. Always cool ppl taking care of us, always great brews on tap and always good food.
Mad Max is back after Covid-19. Real deals and great food order early the kitchen gets backed up. Generally really clean and family friendly, priced competitively ($$)for Mexican food.
Fun and funky vibe. Hostess seemed apathetic but server was friendly. Dips and salsas were pretty tasty. Three types of chips, Tonga tacos were absolutely delicious but way too messy. Juices got all over the place. Rice tasted a little underdone.
