::We visited El Fenix while on a trip to the science museum. Great location in downtown and delicious food. We are from out of state and I was skeptical how good this place would be. Y'all walk don't run to El Fenix!!! Delicious and we experienced no wait time. Our waiter was absolutely amazing! We had chips, salsa, and lunch fajitas and it was all amazing! 👌

::I would not recommend having a large group here. My family and I came with a group of 17 total and we had to wait over 1.5 hours to be seated because they did not have a server ready. I witnessed 3 managers and 2 hostesses standing about on their phones and basically twiddling their thumbs. There were elderly people and children with no where to sit. The table was empty and ready the entire time. After waiting so long, we were seated at separate adjacent tables. The food was very bland. While this was a cheap meal for downtown dining, it wasn’t worth it. My kiddo enjoyed the chicken fingers, so that’s a positive. Two thumbs down for me.

::My husband and I went to El Fenix for lunch on a Saturday. We were very pleased with our experience! The atmosphere was fun and festive. The food was delicious and the service was exceptionable. This location is in walking distance of many downtown Dallas attractions. It is a large restaurant with plenty of room for big groups. There were so many delicious items to choose from including plenty of vegetarian and gluten-free choices! Highly recommend!

::I love eating at the original El Fenix. This takes me back to when I grew up in Little Mexico ,2911 Harry Hines, My Birth/ Childhood to age 6 play area, which has changed so much. One thing that HASN'T changed, is THIS AWESOME TASTING FOOD and RESTAURANT still like when I was a little girl and my Parents would bring me😋😋😋 As you can see by my Super clean plate, they DIDN'T disappoint again! Their service is still superb, From the friendly Hostess, their Attentive, Nice staff, along with their cool Atmosphere made me want to keep this location, the original, be my El Fenix go to... I suggest you all give it a try!

::Great affordable tex-mes food here. The service was friendly and hospitable and we were seated quickly. But what stood out was the food. All the dishes I tried were well-prepared and very reasonably priced. I enjoyed the lunch special which let you choose 3 different dishes, all for about $10! Stop by this Dallas institution if you have charge chance!
