I can't believe how many Mexican and tex mex places there are right in the Monroeville area. That being said, I'm very glad Mad Mex is there! I wasn't sure what to expect as I was told it is "different" and that was a very accurate assessment. The menu has many of the typical mexican items, but most are featured with a fun twist.
I love that there are a variety of salsas and dips to choose from. My favorite is the pineapple habenero. It is sweet put really packs a punch. The chips are great, but my favorite appetizer is the tofu. It was perfectly flavored and the peanuts provided a nice added texture to the dish. The portions are huge and tasty. Fresh (and when possible, local) ingredients are used. I highly recommend this restaurant.
