Always ordering an extra guaca!
Sad they no longer have the crispy taco as early as 1pm!
Churros was surprisingly good.
Tucked in the corner of the foodcourt just across maccas.
A great idea for a quick and convenient takeaway. Quiet dining area is also accessible since this is at the end of the foodcourt. So crowd is less. Service is efficient.
Taco Taste has room for improvement.. Its okay but not yet impressive for us. Quesadilla was okay too.

My friend and I got nachos as a snack. She's vegetarian, so we only picked toppings and sauces that are meat-free. Even without meat, the nachos still taste really good! It's light and savoury, exactly what we were looking for.
Mad mex was a beautiful addition to the food court at Melbourne Central, with hanging lights and printed photographs.
The food was fresh, yummy and fairly cheap!

This is one of my go-tos for quick and cheap eats. You can customise your dish to suit your tastes and dietary preferences. Just be sure that you already know what you want in your dish as some other staff kind of “pressure” you to choose hurriedly, which is understandable especially if there’s a long queue.
With a price range of $15-$20, you can have a very filling meal for your brunch/lunch/dinner. They are also vegetarian-friendly, and have plant-based protein options! Their plant-based is really flavourful, too! You won’t notice that it isn’t meat! The chicken and beef were awesome, too! Pork was just alright for me. We’ve tried tacos, quesadillas and nachos. You can spice up your meals with the verde and habanero sauces available on the tables when you dine in.
- MUST TRY! Quesadilla - my all-time favourite with oozing cheese and generous filling.
- MUST TRY! Nachos - my partner’s all-time favourite! Crunchy nachos with overloaded guacamole (for an extra cost)
There is limited seating option within Mad Mex vicinity. However, since this is situated inside Melbourne Central’s food court, you can opt to sit in that area. The decors within Mad Mex are quite nice. The tables can just get a little bit unclean depending on the time you come in.

I forgot that I actually prefer the chicken burrito at Mad Mex and ordered the beef (which costs more). They also have a new steak option but they were all out on the day. Tasty enough for a bite on the go
My fave mexican place! this place becomes real busy at night, specially when we went there on a Sunday. There was a bit of a queue so the staffs were quite fast and rushing to get the orders done. We had nachos, quesadillas and tacos. We had mild and spicy and both were equally delicious. I love the habanero sauces too which is spicy but just nice for me. The dining area is a bit small but since it’s located in the food court, we managed to get tables easily even when they closed that we have to move to the food court tables.
When you don’t know what to have for lunch and want something easy, quick & delicious, Mad Mex should be the place you go to ‼️

Excellent staff, generous serving and quick service. What more could I want. The Scottish young lady serving is professional. I understand it's inflationary times but if the burritos were wee bit bigger for $20 that would be wonderful.
The Yucatan chicken is recommended for spice lovers. Personally the warm corn chips are the best had with the burrito for crunch.
