I'm new to this app right now, but used it in finding this place to eat. When we were seated I asked for the gf menu and the waiter said as he walked away, "we don't have one!" So now I can't trust this app. I ended up ordering my go to "safer choice" in Mexican restaurants, nachos. I'm not celiac, but if I were I probably would've left and ate elsewhere.
Dont even bother...chips are not gluten free...neither is most of the food.
The chips and salsa are gluten free and delicious! It's so great to be able to eat fresh chips at a restaurant! They had a limited gluten free menu, but the food was good! They were careful about cross contamination too! I will definitely go again!

They have a separate gluten free menu which is nice.
We have been going here for years and years a couple of times a month. Recently, I found out the hard way that the queso recipe had changed but no public notice has been given. The staff also had no idea. It has always been GF and was even listed on the GF menu, which is also no longer available. I was bedridden the following day with very severe symptoms. Terrible :(
NO gluten free menu. Very unfriendly and unwilling to help or even try. Sat and watched my family eat. 100% do not recommend.
The plano location has removed there GF menu and now only offers chips and salsa as GF items. Very disappointing to only get chips when out with friends
This is no longer the same El Fenix. The company changed ownership a few years ago. THe menu has changed and they offer NO gluten free options!
