Great place to go with your friends! It’s a little bit expensive if only one or two people go. Their fish and chips are my favorite!

Mad Mex is a State College staple. Come here for the queso, the margs, the tacos, and so much more.
The atmosphere and service are wonderful. Prompt and friendly servers, patient with newcomers about the menu, and happy to give recommendations or fix problems. Portions are very generous.
We didn't love the waffle fries since they're very oily compared to most. Everything else was great! Dip trio was a highlight. Salsa wasn't our fave, but the guac was very fresh, and the queso was surprisingly good. Both tacos we ordered (sriracha tacos and wing tacos) were large portions and we took a lot of food home. The classic marg was tasty and well balanced. Not too sweet or too sour, and a nice kick. Def not a weak marg.
I'll definitely come back to try other items from their menu (tons of options, nobody can get bored), and the desserts I've heard great things about!

(Updated) Ordered the Mad mex burrito with chicken and got it with steak. Food took a while to come back out. Server was apologetic. The burrito dish was well portioned but tasted extremely bland and was filled mostly with rice and beans, little protein to be found. Ambiance is nice.

Service was incredibly slow. Server didn't pay attention to us and never refilled any waters. Food was decent but not worth it for the price. Chipotle has a more worthy burrito.

Amazing Service from Mel! So I have made the decision to become vegan about 12 days ago, but I was still able to eat and enjoy such tasty meal and wonderful service here at Mad Mex! I want to say thank you to the cooks and Mel for such an evening!

Really fresh food, big portions, prices a little above average but within reason for downtown, and the food was served surprisingly quickly. Downside is it's a little roundy and not the kind of place is bring kids or even your parents if you're a college student.

Great staff, especially Julia our bartender. They really were considerate about the balance between being safe and having fun. Had some fantastic wings and quesadillas to go with an excellent margarita!

This place has a very... "Mexican Sports Bar" feel to it. I really enjoyed the atmosphere and my waitress (Lola) was very nice.
The food looked a little awkward and defied expectation. My wife did not enjoy the majority of her tacos, but my boneless wings were quite tasty.
A good place to meet friends for drinks.
