MAD

This is my new favorite place to go out in Houston. This Spanish restaurant in River Oaks is absolutely stunning—the décor is gorgeous and creates such a special atmosphere. The food was outstanding and the service was excellent from start to finish. We ordered the four-course tasting menu for $55, and while a few small plates come with an additional charge, every single bite was worth it. Truly worth every dollar spent. I can’t wait to come back.

What struck out to me the most was the trendy vibe and chill environments. The food was elevated somewhat even more so than what the atmosphere sets you up for, which is a pleasant surprise. We did the price fixe menu which was very very nice. Highlights included the liquid Frozen Olive which was very flavorful, the iberico ham on toast which was always excellent. The brands you know skin was so crisp and well cooked and so was the suckling pig which reminded me a lot of how those dishes were cooked at bcn. The little flying saucer at the end for dessert was a nice cute touch. Our server was excellent and added to the fun-loving atmosphere. We would definitely go again, and try the the seafood paella.

amazing. we went here for dinner after a proposal. the filet mignon and paella. pricing is pretty decent. food portion is so perfect— you know you will leave this place feeling full with one main course with or without an appetizer. the service is so incredible. I love the food presentation decoration and ambiance (lighting and music). One sad thing is they don’t have the MAD Tomato no more. My fiancé literally chose this restaurant to try that dishes. Hope they bring it back soon in a la carte.

Went to MAD for my birthday dinner and it did not disappoint. The staff was sooo attentive and told us about the artwork, cleared our plates quickly, and checked in on us frequently to make sure everything was going smoothly. I got a birthday dessert and took some great photos. Will definitely be back if I ever return to Houston.

Vibe was amazing, wife and I felt like we were in Madrid. Our server David was amazing. He took such excellent care of us. Explaining the menus, the history of the restand the chef. The chef what done an astounding job of bringing not only the vibe of Madrid to Houston but the flavor. If your looking for a taste of excellence then stop by and grab a bite. You will not be disappointed.
