El Fenix Mexican restaurants are as much a part of the Dallas tradition as the State Fair of Texas, with the restaurant tracing its opening back to 1918. While the first menu featured mostly American food, more exotic tastes with combination plates of Mexican-American dishes soon followed. Over time, the El Fenix menu evolved into a new innovative style called Tex-Mex that has been copied by many...but never duplicated! Today, there are El Fenix restaurants throughout the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex, gaining new fans every day. With the internet helping to spread the legacy worldwide, El Fenix shows no signs of slowing down. People everywhere order El Fenix products online, while others are just now discovering what the people of Dallas and visitors to Dallas have known for decades. Tex-Mex food excites as much as it comforts, so come in and see why this innovative food is so good, a city grew up around it. Whether you swing by for an afternoon snack or a hearty evening meal, El Fenix's kitchen is busily culling fresh ingredients into a fantastic array of options. Can't decide what to have for lunch? Try the Assorted Botana Platter with its combo of Chicken Nachos with Sour Cream, a Beef Fajita Quesadilla, both a Chicken and a Beef Faluta, Guacamole, and Chili con Queso. For dinner, specialties like the Fajita Enchiladas, Fiesta Burrito, and Pan-Seared Fish Tacos are just a sampling of what this bountiful culinary adventure has to offer. Of course, you can always stop in for an unforgettable margarita or other drink, settling in at the bar to catch the game while snacking on a plate of nachos. NOTEWORTHY: Take Home Family Packs are the perfect way to feed that hungry bunch waiting for you at home. If you have something bigger to plan though, El Fenix can transform any ordinary get-together into a memorable Tex-Mex experience. Whether it's at home, the office, or at a picnic there are a variety of catering styles to fit your needs.
