" What a great place for a family gathering! We had a large table of 10, and they accommodated us without issues. The menu had tons of options for everyone, from vegetarians to meat lovers. I personally enjoyed the veggie fajitas, which were colorful and flavorful. Service was friendly but could have been quicker. A lovely spot to revisit! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited El Fenix with a hunger and left completely satisfied! The atmosphere buzzed with energy, and I immediately felt welcomed. The shrimp tacos I ordered were everything I'd hoped for: fresh, flavorful, and packed with a good amount of fillings. I thought the service was prompt and friendly. Can't wait for my next visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" The tortillas at El Fenix are out of this world; they truly set the tone for the meal. I love how they make everything fresh! I recommend trying the enchiladas. Each time I have visited, they have been perfectly melted with cheese and ingredients fresh from the market! Service can sometimes be lengthy, but the food truly makes up for it, and the atmosphere is always buzzing with energy. A great spot for anyone wanting to enjoy traditional Tex-Mex. " (*Curated Review*)

" So happy I stepped into El Fenix! The nachos were delightful and the generous portions meant that my friend and I left with leftovers! The service was friendly, and they catered to our dietary restrictions without a frown. The only downside was that the ambient noise level was a little high, making it tricky to have a conversation at times. Still a great experience overall. " (*Curated Review*)

" A hidden gem in the Dallas area! El Fenix always surprises me with its portion sizes and genuine flavors. I tried the mixed platter and it was not only a feast for the stomach but also for the eyes! Service was delightfully quick. I always leave with a smile! " (*Curated Review*)

" El Fenix holds a special place in my heart. The chips they serve are always fresh, and the salsa is to die for! I am especially fond of their tamales, which are hard to find anywhere else. Whenever I'm back in Dallas, this will always be on my list. The mixed crowd and lively atmosphere provide the perfect backdrop for a relaxed meal. I recommend it to all my friends! " (*Curated Review*)

" El Fenix is incredible! We came for a large family dinner, and everything from the appetizers to desserts was phenomenal. The server was attentive and took care of our large group's needs without any issue. I adore the tortilla chips, and don't even get me started on the flan—it's the best! This is a place where I will always be spending my evenings. " (*Curated Review*)
