More specifically, the dish features a warm cheddar cheese sauce, shredded cheese, diced tomatoes, bacon bits, jalapenos, chives and a spicy jalapeno-flavored ranch dressing. The new dish joins the chain's existing lineup of Gourmet Fries, which also includes the Cheese & Bacon Fries and the ranch-topped Ultimate Fries.
With popular fast food chains such as McDonald's, Wendy's and Jack in the Box experimenting with their signature side dishes, Charleys' new Nacho Fries help the chain stand out from the its competitors.
