Mad Mex Restaurant Review: Continuing the big Burrito Restaurant Group’s concept of zany-chic décor, youthful exuberance and wit everywhere, including the menu, this suburban outpost adds a bright, sunny enclosed patio to the original Mad Mex mix. Late-night diners enjoy the same bargain pricing policy. Fajitas join the Cal-Mex menu of dips, wings, wraps, enchiladas, burritos, quesadillas, entrée salads, sides and desserts. There’s no claim to authenticity, but ingredients are fresh, frequently local and chef-directed. Pepita hummus with toasted flatbread, carnitas burritos and grilled tacos reflect the kitchen’s creative bent. To accommodate vegans, all burritos can be made with vegan cheese and tofu sour cream. Desserts continue the Cal-Mex inspiration with gooey ice cream burritos and honey or hot fudge sopapillas --- sweetened fried pastries. Happy hour, running Monday through Friday, attracts a throng. A huge crowd celebrates Cinco de Mayo each year. The no-reservation policy means either go early or go thirsty and progress, while you wait, through numerous microbrews and craft beers. The fearless and foolish can tackle 22-ounce margaritas. |
