I have yet to find a Mexican Restaurant that deep fries their own tortillas for tacos

El Fenix.

Del Taco is not new to Dallas or to Texas. I worked at one in Texarkana in 1981. They used to be all over the DFW metro area,

Who'd want their food anyway? They use "extenders" (=oatmeal) in their meat. If you want a taco, go to one of those greasy mom and pop joints in the Mexican strip mall, not to Smel Taco.

That does it for me! If they use oatmeal extenders in their taco meat, they probably use flavor enhancers (MSG) to make it taste better, or make you THINK it tastes better.

Thanks for the heads up on El Fenix. I have heard both good and not so good about it......but I didn’t know they deep fried their own taco shells....i.e. not preformed Taco Bell.

As for Del Taco....I don’t care about the tacos.....those are same as I get anywhere here in Texas...it’s the burritos.the hot sauce...and the fries are great too.....
