    I was disappointed in the porcini paella, much of which was burned. However, our other dishes were superb.

    MAD disappointed us again. Even they have made progress on menu bringing so FAVS back. We payed $48 for iberico and the tomato bread was super chewy. Unacceptable. We let the services staff to know but there was not a replacement. The food quality was not good. We asked for a cheese plate. They only had manchego in an Spanish restaurant (idazabal, tetilla, Mahon) Not worth it.

    Ordered the Surf & turf (steak with lobster), they accepted my order and brought me something else (steak with shrimp). I was then informed that surf & turf was taken off the menu a month ago, why then accept my order? Also, requested my steak well-done, I got medium Rare. The entire experience was disappointing, MAD used to be top on my list.

    Absolutely enjoyed our dinner celebrating my aunts birthday. Our waiter (can't remember his name...Filipino waiter...maybe Raylen?) was fantastic! Took care of our table from start to offering amazing recommendations that our table enjoyed. Can't wait to come back!

    My husband and I celebrated my birthday at MAD. Incredible food, service and libations. I am vegan and had plenty of options without having to go off menu. Plus our server, Lucida, made excellent suggestions from the food to the wine. Thank you for a truly wonderful experience!
