    We used El Fenix's Downtown location for our rehearsal dinner - specifically the private upstairs area - and it was wonderful. The ambience was perfect, the mixed indoor/outdoor areas provided our guests a nice option for socializing, and the food was delicious. Bar service was efficient and wonderful, and the gentleman managing the dinner was very attentive. The only minor note is they do not have a TV up there in case watching/presenting something was part of your event plan, but they can provide a screen & projector. Highly highly recommend!

    All I can say is WOW. I expected them to come in and take care of the food. They did so much more. They made sure my dad had food, made him a plate and took it to him. Served the champagne for the toast, cut the cake, cleaned up and even offered to take my plates and silverware back to restaurant and wash them for me. (I had purchased so I would have real) At the end they offered to pack up food and take to Good Samaritan House, so happy when I said yes. I was happy food went to people who enjoyed it. I also offered remainder of cake which they packed up and took too.
    We picked up our clean plates a couple of days later, wow what a help.
    THANK YOU! I highly recommend

    We had our rehearsal dinner in the amazing space upstairs that has a fantastic outdoor space connected to it which was recently redone. The manager was so nice to work with and very accommodating. Also, we thought it was very reasonably priced. We would highly recommend it!!

    We had our rehearsal dinner here and it was awesome! We wanted to have the dinner somewhere in downtown with a view of the Dallas skyline and we wanted Tex-Mex. El Fenix was definitely the way to go! We utilized the upstairs room and the outdoor terrace that gave our out-of-town family a nice view of the skyline while still feeling like they were in the middle of the city. The food was amazing! We had a buffet and they kept it stocked and fresh. We were able to decorate however we wanted and had access to a private bar.

    We absolutely recommend it!

    El Fenix was great to work with!! They arrived on time and had everything set up wonderfully!! They got our (mine and my husband's) food before anyone started eating. The food was perfect and everyone enjoyed it. They were very efficient and professional. A definite must for food -- El Fenix is the best!!

    We had our wedding reception at the downtown Dallas location on the rooftop. It was an amazing night. Everyone liked the food. The margaritas weren’t great (too sweet) but everything else was good. We really only picked this place because it was more affordable than other places and because of the downtown rooftop.

    One of my family's favorite places to eat! Can't go wrong with Mexican. The managers and catering staff were very professional and great to deal with. We had some issues with the credit card and they were very understanding. Would recommend.
