Customer Reviews
This was our first visit but definitely not our last. Service was outstanding, our waiter was so attentive to everything we needed, made sure our drinks where refilled. Chips where fresh and very tasty, right amount of salt. Salsa was excellent as we are definitely picky about our salsa. My son and myself shared the El Jefe Dinner and it came on two plates. My favorite of the dish was the tamale it was great with the tomato sauce was excellent. The Fish taco's my daughter got she said were her favorite the fish was great tasting, seasoned wonderfully she said she will order again. Husband ate the Beef Taco's but did throw in a chicken one and he said they were great tasting. Great Atmosphere, Great service and the food was excellent. We will be going back again.
I got an old standard beef fajita nachos and tortilla soup. I haven't eaten at an El Fenix in years but it's exactly as I remember which is what I wanted. The tortilla soup by default does not have chicken, witch in my opinion is perfect.
Pretty quick service considering the amount of people that were there on a Friday night. Food as always was amazing. My step daughter and I had a great time and the churros with ice cream and soppapilla is a must have!
Held a celebration of life for a fallen family member there. Staff was friendly and respectful. Thank you.
El Fenix has been a favorite of my family and I for as far back as I can remember. Most of the time, we go to the location in downtown Dallas. But we would occasionally go to different locations. It was my Granny’s favorite restaurant. So whenever we go, it always gives me memories of her no matter which location. Even though we always pass the Greenville location, we have never actually been inside and eaten. We tried one time and it was so busy, we didn’t have time to wait. But this time my wife and I decided to stop by and grab a bite. We actually had that rare occasion where we were both off of work on the same day. We decided to stop by and grab a bite for lunch. I ordered the classic chicken enchiladas and they were good. My wife, she ordered the tortilla soup with her rice on the si
