Hammonton, New Jersey is the blueberry capital of the world, and also home to several Mexican restaurants of note.

On the way back from the shore one Sunday, El Dentista Loco and the Nachojawns stopped off at El Mariachi Loco for some dinner.

The burrito is the multiple Hammy Award winner, but we were here for the nachos.

Interestingly, the nachos featured a different chip than the ones given out in the basket to start. These were sturdier and better suited the dish.

There was not great layering, and Nachojawn loyal readers will know that I’m not a huge fan of the head of shredded lettuce topping the nachos. However, there was a great bean puree that really kicked up the dish a level.

These chicken nachos were pretty good, but not as good as my enchiladas mole and verde.

Nachojawn Jr. went with the mixed taco plate.

As for the nachos…

3.66/5 pickled jalapenos – Eat these on your way to or from the beach, and BYO to enjoy the live singing on Sundays.
