Chicken was cooked perfectly with the right amount of moisture while having a crispy outside. I liked their variety of sauces and how you can get your own sauces at the counter.

In my experience, this particular location is always out of something and if you order online, you’ll find out when your meal is missing an ingredient but you’re already home. I love Nandos, but it’s never quite the same here. Also, my side salad is days old (just purchased) and tastes like it was mixed in with bag salad from the grocery store. Not even the same type of lettuce or ingredients. At least the ppl working were friendly.

This is the best Peri Peri location. Has take out and sit down service and doesn’t look like a Chipolte or Cava assembly line. So a step up in vibe for fast casual inside restaurant and a fun Mosiac location. And it’s the only location collecting school supplies for the kiddos on Mandela Day (July 18), mark yr calendars. Easy parking in the garage. Let’s talk about the red garlic mashed. Super yummy. $3, small portion. The mango lime chicken preferred over the lemon herb. Lots of dipping sauce options in terms of heat level and there’s lemon herb and medium garlic. Lemon herb sauce best. Breast comes with wing. Bottomless peach tea alongside soda fountain. Lots of other drink choices including alcohol.

We love the grilled chicken thighs here. The grilled flavor is awesome. They have lots of different sauces to pick from to dip your chicken in. Chicken can come with sides of your choice. Their grilled chicken is absolutely delicious. The restaurant seems really run down and bathrooms and floors need a good scru. They are due for a renovation. The chicken bowls are also delicious. They have a spiked lemonade which is pretty good. Although you can order your food directly at the table and they bring the food to you, the servers still check back to with you to see if you need anything constantly so the service is very good.

Amazing meal. ~$30 for this huge chicken dish and 2 sides. Lots of food. Chicken was cooked perfectly and had great flavor. Many options for sauce. You can pay $1 for spicy mayo, which I suggest.

The wings had a great grilled flavor. I got hot and extra hot. I added a boat load of the extra extra hot to my wings. I like it spicy. The peri peri pepper is not as spicy as a habanero. It has a unique flavor. A few of the wings were rather small. This should be taken into account when plating the food but was not.

I like Nandos, but this one must be my worst experience. The chicken was dry, the garlic beard tasted very bland so probably didn’t have enough garlic mix and the coleslaw was very little on the sandwich, I had to ask for extra.

I came here with my sibling and the first impression is very well done. The person that’s standing at the doorway and guiding visitors/answering questions/etc. is very engaging and friendly. It was a pretty busy day and yet the employees there still managed to deliver every order to their rightful customers’ tables. I loved the food menus because you are given varieties of spiciness levels, sauces, sides, toppings, rice, and many other combinations.

TMI warning. I ordered take-out. Approximately $30 for a bowl – got home and it did not look good. Ate it anyway. It didn’t taste good. Woke up nauseous at 1:00 am, have been throwing it up since then (it’s now 1:40 am). I would highly recommend staying away.
