When you’re craving a huge pile of messy, delicious nachos, where do you go in the Charlotte area?<\/p>\n

We want to know because we\u2019re in search of the best nachos out there, and no one knows better than you.<\/p>\n

To nominate your favorite restaurant, just fill out our nomination form<\/a> or email us at charlottefive@charlottefive.com<\/a>. If you find it too hard to pick just one place, we understand. All you have to do is refresh the form and nominate another place.<\/p>\n

As with past CharlotteFive Readers\u2019 Choice contests<\/a>, each restaurant must have a location in the Charlotte area \u2014 which includes Lake Norman, Gastonia, Matthews, Mint Hill, Fort Mill and other nearby communities.<\/p>\n

We\u2019re also looking for a place with fewer than 20 locations nationwide, and one that hasn\u2019t previously come out on top in a CharlotteFive Readers\u2019 Choice contest. (That unfortunately knocks out the stellar nachos at Que Fresa and Que Onda \u2014 our winner and finalist for best tacos \u2014 along with the heavenly version at Wing King, our winner for best chicken wings.)<\/p>\n

Once we collect the nominations, we\u2019ll invite you to vote for the ones you think are the best. Stay tuned for more details and make sure you\u2019re signed up for the CharlotteFive newsletter<\/a> to follow along.<\/p>\n
