Looking for great nachos

Post #1 - July 31st, 2010, 9:05 pmWhere can I go to get great nachos? Preferably on the north side.

Post #2 - July 31st, 2010, 9:10 pmWhereas I don't like much else there, El Presidente on Ashland has good nachos. Appropriate maybe because nachos aren't Mexican. My wife loves their menudo and beef soup too. Open 24/7 365, favorite of cops and musicians.

Post #3 - July 31st, 2010, 9:16 pmCould you be a bit more specific, both as to what you're looking for exactly, and where?
Shooting from the hip, not northside, but the ones at Nuevo Leon are kind of legendary. The fact that there are six in the order should give you an idea.

Just looking for tortilla chips with toppings.
Thanks for the tip on Nuevo Leon. I've never tried their nachos, but maybe it's about time I do!

Post #6 - July 31st, 2010, 9:45 pmCarne Asada Nachos - Cuetzala (or were they al pastor?)
These things are much larger than they appear in the photo. Each chip is 1/4 of a tortilla (fried fresh for each order).The Pico de Gallo is also made fresh.

Post #8 - August 1st, 2010, 10:19 amI like the Chachos at La Pasadita (the southern one on Ashland and I think Elston has them too)
It's chips, their amazing carne asada, cheese and salsa. HUGE portions for a reasonable price. No guac, lettuce, jalapenos etc to mess things up, nice and simple:)I used to think the brain was the most important part of the body. Then I realized who was telling me that.

Post #9 - August 1st, 2010, 10:49 amA friend turned us onto the Cuban Nachos at Cafe Laguardia on Armitage. Very tasty, not exactly Mexican in style, they come already assembled, on fried plantains with guacamole, meat, cheese, etc. They do have some Mexican dishes on their menu for people who think Cuban should be Mexican.

Post #10 - August 1st, 2010, 3:49 pmIf you don't want "traditional" nachos, I'm a fan of the nachos at Crew Bar, on Broadway at Lawrence. The pulled pork variety is most excellent.
