Before opening the doors of their restaurant, they sold food from their food truck. 12 years later they saved enough money to open their restaurant. In 2002 El Mariachi opened its doors to the public.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe food that we serve here is homemade. My husband is from Guanajuato and I am from Texas, so the food is kind of a fusion of food from Guanajuato and Texas. We also have traditional dishes like chicken in mole sauce and one of our most popular dishes is pork ribs in chile negro,\u201d Virginia Castro said.<\/p>\n<p>She mentioned that these past 10 years have not been easy. There has been a lot of hard work. There were sad times and happy times, profits and losses and of course, there was the fierce competition of the market. That is why the 10<sup>th<\/sup> Anniversary of the El Mariachi restaurant is so special for this couple.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEven though today the competition is tough, but thanks to our loyal customers, we are still here. It is all because once they enter here and try our food, they keep on coming back,\u201d Mrs. Castro assures.<\/p><div id=\"holaa-1566156770\" class=\"holaa-ad-inside-articles\" style=\"margin-top: 2px;margin-bottom: 2px;margin-left: auto;margin-right: auto;text-align: center;\"><div class=\"holaa-adlabel\">Advertisements<\/div><a data-no-instant=\"1\" href=\"https:\/\/hhs.iowa.gov\/health-prevention\/diabetes-prevention-management\" rel=\"noopener\" class=\"a2t-link\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"Diabetes Spanish 300&#215;250\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/holaamericanews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/Diabetes-Spanish-300x250-2.jpg\" alt=\"\"  width=\"300\" height=\"250\"  style=\"display: inline-block;\" \/><\/a><\/div><br style=\"clear: both; display: block; float: none;\"\/>\n<p>In order to celebrate their 10<sup>th<\/sup> Anniversary Alfredo and Virginia Castro plan to have a ribbon cutting ceremony with the Greater Quad Cities Hispanic Chamber of Commerce and all guests will be able to try some appetizers and the restaurant will offer drinks and food specials all day.
