We live near this restaurant, so we walk to it once in awhile. Never been there on a busy weekend so they service has always been fine for us. The Greek dishes are very good! The menu also includes Indian dishes, which are quite disappointing and I would avoid. My Indian dishes have been served on beds of plain boring white rice. Not even fragrant basmati rice. Bleah. I cook Indian better than this.(I guess that's why it's not called Mad India)
The Greek specials of the day are usually excellent. Not too pricey, either. Go for the Greek.

Much more spacious and open than it appears from the street, the Mad
Greek features a stellar menu of Mediterranean classics, offering
diners a locale with a chic `on holiday` feel. From the hummus appetizer
to the entrees (which range from honey-glazed lamb chops to Halibut
Aegean -- broiled fish marinated in tarragon wine sauce and topped
with Parmesan cheese), the Mad Greek has appeal beyond the feta-laced
standards. The lunch menu also includes basic gyro sandwiches and
pita melts. For those who have never tried the flashy Greek appetizer
saganaki (fried-cheese flambe), this is as good a place as any to start.
In those precious few months of warm Cleveland weather, the glass facade
miraculously rolls up to transform the bar area an open patio. The restaurant
is situated near a row of upper scale boutiques, making it a fine choice
for a midday shopping break.

The wait staff was beyond poor. My wife ordered seafood goa - veggie goa arrived, so we had to wait another 20 min. for her real order to arrive. I asked for tea - the waiter randomly brought hot without asking. My wife asked for more water - took the second request to get this!
I then took the time to bring up these issues to the host. All he did was say 'I am sorry, I will talk to him, that was unacceptable.'
Did he make it up to us?
No, not at all.
So I share this experience with you, so you can avoid the same circumstance.
PS the good was good though - I give the chef credit.

Both Greek and Indian specialties are served at this Cedar-Fairmount neighborhood favorite, which is why diners will find both spanakopita and pakoras among the appetizer choices. No matter: The dichotomy allows for fun (and sometimes fiery) mixing and matching. Soups, salads and sandwiches afford a variety of lunch or light dinner options, including a hamburger for those less adventurous. Familiar Greek specialties - chicken kebab, dolmades (rolled grape leaves) and gyros - mingle with dishes like crabmeat Corfu, a boneless breast of chicken broiled with spinach mushroom sauce, surimi crabmeat and mozzarella cheese; and halibut Aegean, a broiled filet marinated with Greek spices and topped with Parmesan and tarragon wine sauce. Curries are served with salad and basmati rice. For a departure, try alu ghobi, wok-fried cauliflower, potatoes and peas seasoned with Indian spices; or shrimp chicken Goa, stir-fried in a creamy coconut curry sauce. Dessert - namely, baklava - remains strictly Greek.
