"It's Wednesday evening - still almost afternoon - and it's cold, but the line snakes out the door almost the street any day. It will still be there when you've finished eating. Inside, the place, though just remodeled, still has the bustling, noisy atmosphere, kitschy murals, and plastic plants of original Tex-Mex places.

It's Enchilada night at El Fenix on Northwest Highway and Hillcrest, and it's an event every week, with a good percentage of Park Cities residents - Mary Kay Ash (Mary Kay Cosmetics founder) was leaving as we entered - lining up for a real meal deal: two cheese enchiladas, rice, and refried beans (no substitutions), the quintessential Tex-Mex meal..."

excerpted from Star Time, the Entertainment Magazine of the Fort Worth Star Telegram, May 22-28, 1998

"Wednesday: Many restaurants offer an enchilada dinner on Wednesdays, but the granddaddy is the...special at the El Fenix chain, the oldest Tex-Mex restaurant in North Texas (established in 1918.)"
