Mad Chef has always been one of our favorites. We’ve moved from the area so we don’t go regularly anymore. The food is consistent. Drinks are always good and we love the seasonal dessert specials. The overall energy of the place is notably different, however. Nothing that we can point out specifically but definitely different. And not a complaint but an observation. We did notice that the staff was disheveled in their appearance…untucked shirts, etc.

The food was very good, we got the Black and Bleu burger and the Blackened Mahi sandwich. Both came out delicious and the Old Bay and Malt Vinegar fries were a great side. I thought the prices were good, not cheap but nothing crazy. The only critique I have was the service was a little slow. It was a busy night and the server was polite and helpful but things just took a little longer than expected.

Fish of fish and chips were good. Chips were greasy. Salad with steak, salad was old with browned edges and steak was bland. Beet salad, is just a bowl of beets? No greens. We asked and we were charged for for a bowl or greens! Crab dip app was good with chips. Waitress was nice but spoke too low. Her zen needs to increase a little.

The ladies and I always have a great time at Mad Chef! The kitchen is very understanding of allergies and the servers are always attentive without being overbearing. My friends and I ended up staying WAY longer than normal and nobody ever tried to budge us out the door or anything. Mad Chef is always one of my favorite places to dine at.

Good service and food was good too, but the 2 top tables are way too close together. It’s uncomfortable to bump into someone on both sides every time you get up. Feels like a cafeteria instead of a nice restaurant

Great appetizer (street corn). Great sangria. Husband loved the seared tuna. A little disappointed in the seared scallops over risotto as the scallops were very salty for my tast. Otherwise, will definitely go back and try other items on the menu!

Came to the Mad Chef on Sunday with my wife to celebrate my son’s birthday. Ashley was our server and provided outstanding service. Food was decent but quality was wanting in some respects. The crab meat used for our crab cakes could have been better. No jumbo lumps in what was supposed to be a jumbo lump crab cake. Otherwise, all dishes were well prepared. The chicken taquitos were delicious and we fought over the accompanying potatoes to our breakfast dishes. This is our second time coming back to the Mad Chef, and we probably will return again.
