Stepping into the neon-lit space of MAD, an electrifying addition to Houston’s culinary scene, is a feast for the senses. Named after Madrid’s airport code, the buzzy restaurant boasts a Spanish influence in everything from cuisine to atmosphere. The bold, maximalist decor from Barcelona's Lázaro Rosa-Violán Studio channels the over-the-top '80s, and was specifically inspired by La Movida Madrileña, a countercultural movement spurred by the 1975 death of Spanish leader Francisco Franco.
