After 30 years in business, Mad Mex has closed its restaurant near the University of Pittsburgh campus in Oakland.

The company announced the closing on social media Tuesday, citing “ongoing staffing and operational changes.”
The location was shut down over the summer due to staffing issues, reopening in October.
The message posted on Facebook:
“It is with heavy hearts that we announce the difficult decision to close Mex Oakland due to ongoing staffing and operational challenges. We'll never forget the good times we’ve shared on Atwood over the past 30 years. We hope to continue to make great memories with you at our other Mad Mex locations throughout the city.”
Eight other Mad Mex restaurants in the Pittsburgh area are in operation.
Those locations are in Canonsburg, Cranberry, Monroeville, North Hills, Robinson, Scott Township, Shadyside and Waterworks.
