The Decor and Ambiance at Nacho Mama Are Sublime!
The brick-laden walls, wooden rustic tables, and a piece of Mexico everywhere you look make Nacho Mama’s a fantastic spot for your next Instagram post.
It has an outdoor seating area where diners can sit and enjoy their meals while listening to the water in the fountain race down in a series of cascades.
What’s even greater is that they serve really good Mexican food, which is what this Nacho Mama’s review will be about.
The Ultimate Food Guide for Nacho Mama’s
After getting a seat in this lively Mexican restaurant, I finally got the opportunity to look at its menu. At Nacho Mama’s, the variety of food is limited, which is a great sign as you know you’ll be getting absolutely delicious meals.
The friendly staff suggested some of their best sellers, which included the fish tacos, Buffalo chicken burrito, chicken Chesapeake, and quesadillas.
I decided to stick with the staff’s recommendations and added Nacho Mama’s Nachos to start off the early dinner.
It didn’t take long before the meals arrived. After taking the first bite of the quesadillas, I was instantly hooked. The sautéed onions were caramelized to perfection and complemented the gooey cheese and chipotle steak. It was a match made in heaven.
All the meals came in big portions, enough to share between two people. I quickly munched down on the rest of the dishes and had some room for dessert, so I ordered a warm chili chocolate cake served with blueberry sauce. That definitely hit the spot!
Don’t Forget to Check Out Their Happy Hour Menu
I went to Nacho Mama’s with a couple of friends for an early dinner at around 6 PM on a Thursday. Lucky for us, the restaurant has a happy hour menu between 3 PM and 7 PM (Monday to Friday), which offers discounted prices on draft beer, wines, and cocktails.
The staff mentioned that they served the meanest hubcap margaritas, so we had to order one. It arrived in a metal bowl dish with a couple of straws sticking out of it. Made from tequila, triple sec, and a house-made lime mix, the drink was refreshing and a delight to the senses.
