"So my first visit a few weeks ago I wasnt impressed with the food but I guess I ordered the wrong thing cheese enchiladas covered in queso with refried beans). Today I gave it another try and it was good. I ordered the beef enchilada with chili con carne sauce and chicken enchilada with sour cream sauce with charro beans. There was a bit of spice and the beans were great. Once again the chips were excellent. The hot sauce isn't spicy but you can't get that everywhere. The service is amazing and that is really important. I recommend you give El Fenix a try if you are in the area. Original review: Great service, delicious chips. Salsa not spicy at all. Enchiladas and refried beans were flavorless. I don't recommend eating here if you like any spice or flavor. I was really disappointed."

Delicious! It was my wife's birthday, and she picked this restaurant. We've dined here before, and it was just as fantastic as I remembered. They never disappoint!

Tex-Mex at its finest! You can't go wrong with anything you order here. My favorite dish is the Tina Plate, but the fajitas were also fantastic. Don’t forget to grab a jar of salsa on your way out!

Not at all what was expected. Salsa was very bland, no spice and the food was dull no flavor except a lot of cumin. One order was Fajitas for two and there was barely enough for one person. The serving was smaller than the lunch portion for one person. Don't waste your money here.

Love the food....especially the Chicken Tortilla Soup and the Spicy Brisket Enchiladas! Yum! Usually pretty great service as well. The only reason I'm giving 4 stars instead of 5 is because some food on the menu is bland. Just disappointing when they have other flavorful delicious food.

Wow! What an incredible place! They serve authentic Tex-Mex cuisine. The staff is very friendly and the service is quick and efficient. The chicken burrito was as long as the plate! It came with roasted beans and rice. The tilapia was really fresh and delicious. The chips were crispy and flavorful! I definitely recommend this place! View menu

Ms. Rebecca our waitress was amazing! We had an family member join from out of town she quickly assembled two tables so we could change tables! Then every so often she asked how we were doing, offered refills, chips were always at the table fresh! Shout out to the bartender as well! Long Island tea Margaritas were amazing!!! Never had a bad experience here will definitely continue to go!

Poor service. I have eaten at other Dallas locations, thus was my 1st time in Denton. If I comeback to Denton I wouldn't eat here again. Never had my drink refilled. Queso tasted burnt. Ordered fish tacos (I've had at Dallas locations) No beans and no slaw (very sparse lettuce) Plate was served with first taco flopped open. 3rd taco fish was on the plate and not in the taco. Not sure what the sauce was suppose to be, tasted like mayonnaise

"When you first enter this Japanese sushi restaurant, you’re welcomed with "irasshaimase," which means "please come in." If you're unsure of what to order, Chef James and his talented team are eager to recommend something delicious. Just tell them your preferences, and they'll guide you to the best options. Today, I tried the ono sushi with black pepper, creamy ono sushi, and the rock 'n' roll sushi. The rock 'n' roll sushi features a delightful mix of tuna, salmon, snapper, and avocado, all wrapped in cucumber. It was incredibly fresh, light, and refreshing, showcasing high-quality ingredients. We ended our meal with a flan and a bite of lemon to enhance the silky flavor. I didn’t take many pictures, but I assure you, I ordered plenty! The quality and freshness of the food are excellent for the price. When I bring my family, I have a little one who isn't a sushi fan and opts for fried chicken. Another child loves California rolls, making ordering a breeze! Meanwhile, my partner and I savor all kinds of delicious sushi and sushi-fusion dishes. There's truly something for everyone. On our last visit to the bar, we met a chef who frequents this place because it’s his favorite, and his friend brings him here weekly. They introduced us to many other mouthwatering items on the menu. So, if you’re looking for a tasty sushi spot that serves fresh and creative dishes, head to South Denton and support this local business. The restaurant has new owners now—Chef James and his family—who took over recently. When you go, find a spot at a table, the bar, or even a stand. Enjoy the lively atmosphere, and don’t hesitate to ask for their recommendations. One last tip: when you finish your meal, remember to practice saying "gochisosama deshita" to express your gratitude for the meal!"
