El Mariachi Mexican Restaurant on Hamilton Street is now open after being closed over a year due to a small fire. 

El Mariachi is located in the Robison Square area of downtown Albany and will host a cutting ribbon ceremony.

Business owners are Patty Bermejo Bhola and Freddie B. Bhola. Patty Bermejo's family is a native of the beautiful and colonial city of Puebla, Mexico. The traditional cuisine and outstanding specialties from their hometown are incorporated in El Mariachi's Menu.  With the strong family tradition that their parents taught them, the Bermejo family have been able to start the first Authentic Mexican Restaurant in the Capital Region. 

El Mariachi began serving traditional delicious Mexican and Spanish cuisine in the Capital Region more than 18 years ago.
