El Fenix

Branch of a long-running chain serving Tex-Mex staples in a hacienda-style setting. The creation of El Fenix began in the 1890s with the birth of Miguel (Mike) Martinez. Over time, the El Fenix menu evolved into a new innovative style, now dubbed Tex-Mex.

Great food and service. However, if they sit you in the back right side of the restaurant , you don't receive there BEST customer service.

The place needs a MAJOR renovation. Take a look at the ceiling and the 1970's decor.
