Celebrating Mexican Festivals with Food

Experience Authentic Mexican Festival Flavors at El Mariachi

Our menu prioritizes celebrating Mexican Festivals with food. Mexican culture bursts with vibrant festivals filled with music, history and food. From Dia de los Muertos to Cinco de Mayo, every celebration features traditional dishes that bring people together. At El Mariachi in Parkersburg WV, we honor these traditions by serving the flavors that define these special occasions.

Honoring Loved Ones with Pan de Muerto During Día de los Muertos

Día de los Muertos (Day of the Dead), celebrated on November 1st and 2nd, honors loved ones who have passed. Families create ofrendas (altars) decorated with candles, marigolds, and Pan de Muerto, a soft, sweet bread dusted with sugar.

Celebrate Cinco de Mayo with A Flavorful Tribute to Victory at El Mariachi

Though often mistaken for Mexico’s Independence Day, Cinco de Mayo commemorates the Battle of Puebla in 1862. The day celebrates Mexican heritage with vibrant flavors, including mole poblano, a rich sauce made with chilies and chocolate, and chile rellenos, stuffed poblano peppers. We bring this festive energy to Parkersburg with flavorful dishes and festive drinks.

Christmas Posadas Means Tamales and Ponche for the Holidays

During the nine nights of Las Posadas, families reenact Mary and Joseph’s journey, ending with feasts featuring tamales, buñuelos, and ponche navideño (a warm fruit punch). We prepare hearty tamales year-round, giving you a taste of this cherished Christmas tradition anytime.

Feast on Tacos al Pastor at El Mariachi for Mexican Independence Day

On September 16th, Mexico’s Independence Day, the country erupts in celebration with parades, fireworks, and tacos al pastor—marinated pork sliced off a spit and topped with pineapple, onion, and cilantro, full of bold, zesty flavor. We serve bold, flavorful dishes that bring this patriotic celebration to Parkersburg.

Food connects people to culture, history, and each other. At El Mariachi in Parkersburg WV, we bring these beloved Mexican traditions to your table. Join us for a meal that captures the spirit of Mexico’s festivals.
