El Fenix offers a variety of Mexican dishes that consistently receive positive reviews. The light and crispy chips, mild flavors, and non-salty food are easy on the stomach. The Picadillo Beef Enchiladas are particularly enjoyed, served hot and quickly, while the Fajitas (beef or chicken) are noted for their genuine taste. The Chicken Quesadillas are also highlighted as awesome. The restaurant is known for its excellent margaritas and salsa, which many consider the best in DFW. Guests appreciate the flavorful enchiladas, tasty watermelon el jeje, and refreshing cocktails, all at reasonable prices. The staff provides great service, handling separate checks smoothly for large groups, and the atmosphere remains welcoming and friendly. The restaurant is clean, well-staffed, and offers ample parking, making for a quiet and comfortable dining experience. Some visitors mention that the green salsa and guacamole are available for an additional cost. Overall, El Fenix is a place where customers often return, enjoying the Tex-Mex flavors, Texas hospitality, and consistent quality that has kept it popular for over 50 years.
