Craving nachos? Whether you like a traditional Tex-Mex take with creamy queso, spicy salsa or tangy pickled jalapeños or a more out-of-the-box option, we’ve rounded up the best Nashville spots to grab a platter of chips with all the fixings.

Bastion Nashville

434 Houston St., Ste. 110 / Bastion

While Bastion's 24-seat, reservation-only tasting menu-style restaurant is a master class in creative fine dining, the Wedgewood-Houston neighborhood spot's casual bar is home to just one dish: a heaping portion of nachos. It may be the only offering, but that's because it's the only one anyone could need: creamy queso cheese sauce, Cotija cheese, house-pickled veggies, cilantro, a dollop of sour cream and your pick of pulled pork or vegetarian chorizo.

Miranda Lambert’s Casa Rosa

308 Broadway / Casa Rosa

A pink oasis in a sea of male-dominated star bars, Miranda Lambert’s Tex-Mex restaurant concept Casa Rosa features live music performances, inventive craft cocktails and a lineup of tempting fare like sizzling fajitas and housemade tamales, not to mention some of the best brisket nachos in town, crafted with shredded cheddar cheese, queso blanco, refried beans, tangy house-pickled jalapeños, scallions, chipotle barbecue, Santa Fe sauce and red onions.

ML Rose Craft Beer & Burgers

Multiple locations / M.L. Rose

This beloved Nashville neighborhood mainstay (with a soon-to-open location in East) may specialize in local brews and juicy burgers, but don't sleep on M.L. Rose's other menu favorite: a heaping and delectable platter of signature chicken nachos layered with queso, black beans, grilled chicken, pico de gallo and jalapeños served with a side of sour cream and salsa.

Noble’s Kitchen & Beer Hall

974 Main St. / Noble's

With a vibrant ambiance, delicious bar fare and an extensive beer program, this East Nashville hub is one to visit for its signature Noble’s Nachos. Made with housemade brisket chili, tortilla chips, queso, tomatoes, jalapeños and lettuce, the nachos can be amped up with add-ons like sour cream, chicken, barbecue pork, brisket or steak.
