Nando's Flame-Grilled PERi-PERi Chicken tantalizes tastebuds from London to Leeds, Bristol to Brighton. Here in UK the flames of Nando's are spreading like wild fire. But even as we grow, our aim is not to be another chain of restaurants. We want each Nando's restaurant to be individual reflecting the local characteristics of each area. Visit some of our restaurants and you will see that although they serve the same great chicken, each one has something unique. This includes 57 restaurants that serve halal chicken. We are known for our PERi-PERi chicken, which has a truly unique taste. Fresh, never frozen, A-grade chickens are butterfly-cut and immediately marinated in the top-secret Nando's marinade for a full 24 hours to ensure that the flavour penetrates right through the meat. The chicken is flame-grilled right in front of you and basted thoroughly in your choice of sauce: Lemon & Herb for the not so brave, Medium PERi-PERi for the slightly more adventurous and Hot or Extra Hot PERi-PERi for the real daredevils. Flame-grilling the chicken means that half the fat of the chicken literally disappears in the process, and the result - the finest tasting chicken in the world.
Staff has given verbal assurance of halal status. Not all Nando's outlets offer halal chicken, but the outlets listed here have been known to do so. Please check with the individual outlet first.

Great food as always from Nandos! This spot does get busy at peak times, waited around 15-20 minutes to get seated. Was frustrating that they seemed to serve not based on group size but just whoever is at the front of the queue - so spent a long time waiting for a group of 6 to be seated when most of us were twos or threes. Overall though service was very efficient and friendly staff all round, with delicious food - highly recommend the Fino Pitta.
Came with my lovely girlfriend to Cardiff Saint David’s Nando’s, we was instantly sat and asked in a choice of seating, when asking for extra condiments, Julie was quick and very quick to cater towards our needs, Julie made this great experience that little much better
I had a great experience at Nando’s Cardiff. The food was fresh, hot, and full of flavour — exactly what you expect from Nando’s. The chicken was perfectly cooked and the peri-peri sauce hit the spot. The staff were friendly and efficient, even though it was fairly busy, and the restaurant was clean and well organised. Service was quick and the atmosphere was relaxed and welcoming. Overall, a solid Nando’s experience and definitely a place I’d visit again when I’m in Cardiff.
Whilst souvenir shopping during our visit to Cardiff, we stopped by the St. David’s Shopping Center. And whilst we were there, we asked an employee for a lunch recommendation. She quickly recommended Nando’s. We’d never heard of Nando’s, since I don’t believe they’ve made it out to the west coast of the US just yet. But based on the recommendation and the description of spicy/seasoned chicken (YUMM), we checked it out. We were very pleased with Nando’s. Nando’s gives kind of a semi-formal vibe. Like, upper class fast food. We were seated, and then shown how to order on our phone, right from the table. Then we were given our drink cups for self-serve, and shown the self-serve utility station. You just grab your own preference of sauces, silverware and seasonings (salt/pepper) whenever you’re ready. When the food is ready, they bring it to your table. Easy peasy, lemon squeezy. When the food came out, we were very pleased. The chicken was tender and juicy, with lots of flavor. I got a plate of chicken, and my wife got a chicken sammich. The spicy rice was also very good. The fries (or “chips” in the UK) were good, with a nice seasoning on them as well. The maca maca cheese was just ok, I thought. The service was fast and friendly, and the food was really good. I’d say the prices were not too bad, especially by today’s standards (dang inflation), and again, it’s a little elevated over fast food. All in all, we were happy with our Nando’s lunch and would recommend it to anyone, especially if you’ve never tried it.
Horrible, dont ever come to this nandos. The staff were incredibly rude, avoided eye contact at all cost. The food came and it was wrong, I ordered chips but instead got spicy rice. When I did take it back the staff had horrible expressions on their face as if it was my fault when I clearly asked for chips. My chicken leg was also under cooked, it was still pink. Unacceptable! Never come here, it is not worth the money for these rude staff and the wait was way too long, we waited about 25 mins.
