I'm pretty sure this is the original Mad Mex, so it's almost like I'm not writing a review for a chain!
Upsides: Blue cornbread that will make your heart melt. Half price after 11. Generally awesome food. Wacky fun wall art.
Downsides: Loud. Crowded. Seating uncomfortably close to other tables. Not enough menu options with queso. And definitely skip their cheese dip for their nachos... it's pretty lame.
I always have a really tough time deciding what I want at Mad Mex, too. The menu is cute (though bordering on obnoxious,) but I don't know if it's really laid out that well. It might be a problem on my end, though... maybe I just suck at reading menus.
