Nachos @ The Sixth Ward

How much: $10.95
Rating: 5
Our Review:  These tie with nice guy eddies for bar 'chos. Good flavor and decent portion size. Fair amount of topping. Outta the bag chips and over complicated chip layout made sharing difficult and uneven topping distribution. The chef purposefully surrounded the plate circumference with naked chips. Also a tad dry.

Brief description: So so 'chos. Salsa and sour cream on the side made these 'chos extra dry. Good amount of cheese and jalapeños. Guac was absent and so was Miami. Good place to go and watch Sunday football. Go Steelers!!

Restaurant: Mary Ann's Mexican Restaurant

Location: East Village

Rating: 4

Ingredients: Tortilla chips, cheddar cheese, sour cream, salsa, guacamole, jalapenos, and refried beans.

Price: $4.95

Brief description: Good flavors, but only enough for one. Crispy on the edges and great to have sour cream, salsa and guacamole on top, but all the beans made the nachos implode into a soggy mess.

Type: Fiesta Nachos

Price: $9.95

Ingredients: Jack and cheddar cheese, tomatoes, jalapeno peppers, onions, and chicken. Topped with sour cream, guac, and salsa.

Rating: 8

Brief Description: Delicious nachos. Tons of cheese and topping. All toppings were on top, rather than as sides. Few naked chips, great portion size, and did we mention super cheesy?? We wish the chips were homemade, but at least they were tasty.  The chicken was a little dry -- try it without, but don't skip on these chos, Phebes certainly didn't!

Nachos at Saint Marks Ale House

Restaurant: Saint Marks Ale House

Type: Tex Mex Nachos 
Ingredients: Grilled chicken, black beans, sliced jalapenos, diced tomatoes, monterey jack and cheddar cheese, sour cream, and guacamole. 
Price: 10
Rating: 6

Brief Review: There are definitely things to admire about the Nachos at Saint Marks Ale House, particularly the cheese with its slightly burnt edges and it's overall greasiness. However, even with a strong layering of cheese and grease, these nachos quickly dry out due to the unimaginative topping distribution and overcooked chips. If you're on your fourth or fifth beer, then these will certainly hit the spot, but if you want to be fulfilled you may have to look elsewhere on the menu. Total in-betweeners!

Price: $7

Rating: 8

Description: Thanks VM for recommending the pork nachos from Marfa in the LES. Highly recommend it with notes of nutmeg and delicious cheeses. I'd give it a solid 8. Not to mention the ambiance--various sequined drag queens from Lucky Chengs (sharing the same building) floating through for cocktails. It's a hoot.

Brief Review: Nothing at all special about these nachos served up in foil pan. Pretty much glorified chips and salsa nachos with some extra toppings. Ingredients were generally cold. Boring.

Brief Review: Great portion size, lots of toppings. Interesting combination of shredded cheddar and cheese whiz. Chips were disappointing. Lots of "queen mother chips" and too many of naked chips left at the end.

Type: Central Bar Nachos with Chicken

Rating: 8

Brief Review: Avoid the off-the-menu version of Central Bar's nachos (see left pic). Instead, ask for the customized nachos and you'll get some super yummy nachos (see right pic). The customized nachos were piled high with the works and a generous helping of chicken. The portion size was ridiculous!

Brief Review: Disappointing nachos. The key toppings that added a bit a flavor to these dry and boring nachos were on the side (guac, sour cream, and salsa). The portion size was miniature and the chips were out of a bag.
