Had an amazing experience at the El Fenix in McKinney. Went in with a large party last minute and we were seated quickly. Our server was Nathaniel, he was great and very attentive to us. Drinks and food came out at the perfect time and everything was fantastic. We will definitely be back.
$7.50 for an enchilada plate is astoundingly fantastic, high-quality as well. I came in with my fajita mindset, but that quickly changed when I found out the deal on the enchiladas. The food is always quality and consistent, and our young server Noah was extremely genuine and professional. I’ve been to multiple other El Fenix restaurant around the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex, all of which have lived up to their excellent reputation. I am particularly fond of this location. …
I’ve been going to El Fenix for 50 years. Their recipes are standard and always pretty good. Service here was good. Quickly seated but there we’re about 5 or 6 tables we passed that has not been bussed. It was not the noon rush hour. They could really upgrade their margarita selection. There is not a selection that does not include the “mix”. Still it’s El Fenix and we will be back.
