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.

First time there and loved it. The chips are the best I've ever had and the fajita enchilada with chicken was great!

Mae

The staff here is always friendly , the food is delicious, for a chain it's fantastic

Angela Skees

Good chips . Fajitas are really nice. One of few places to get pralines .

Deni Dickson Snyder

Slow service. Drinks suck at over $6 a pop. You can get one for half that price at other Mexican places that actually have alcohol . Chips and salsa are great though.
