During the day, the restaurant was well lit with large windows at the front and many overhead light fixtures, although the lighting is dimmed in the evenings. At the time of visiting, the music was kept fairly low in volume. Mad Crush offers a lunch, dinner, and weekend brunch menu, which all feature good contrast and readable font size. Mad Crush’s excellent customer service was a highlight of the visit — the staff were extremely welcoming and eager to offer assistance!
