Founded almost two decades ago by José "Pepe" Hadad, Mad Mexican was born from a passion for sharing the true essence of Mexican culinary traditions.

In company with Sandra Hernandez, our Head Chef, we offer a culinary journey with dishes prepared from scratch, made with the freshest and highest-quality ingredients. Discover new flavours, dive into our specialties like the Mole Poblano and Carne Asada, and create memorable moments with loved ones.
