Nando’s

I love Nandos as an alternative to any other fast food meal. I think the chicken wraps are amazing. Staff in D2 and Dundrum are amazing, however tonight I visited the Henry Street branch and I was met by what I can only describe as the attitude of two uneducated brats, hence the one star rating. I have never received such an appalling treatment in a restaurant in Dublin before. I won’t be coming back but I do indeed recommend everyone to try the other branches.

This place is super ‘meh’. The food itself is enjoyable but not great value for money. I’d give the place a much better review if it was half the price. Been here twice, the service and staff are great which is why I gave it the two stars however the food itself is just a bit of grilled chicken and some chips. Found the butterfly chicken Portuguese roll to be very hard and the tiny but of butterfly chicken you get for 10 euro is hardly worth it. Got a takeaway in work and persuaded my friend to try it for the first time. She was pretty disappointed and I wished I hadn’t brought it up as an option to be honest…

Fast Food just better than the usual choice. My second time in Nando’s after living here for 5 years.
The choices are enough, something for everyone on there — even for the vegetarians if needed. The chicken is delicious, very juicy and tasty.
You can choose spices and flavours to make it yours. The side orders are easy but fresh too and not overlooked at all!
Staff is very friendly and they are quick too! No reason to complain.
I’d give 5 stars if I would have had my half chicken with crispy skin all over :)

This place has some really good chicken. They also have a very diverse set of side items on their menu as well. The large selection of sauces which you can get with your chicken is also quite impressive. The staff are lovely and the only thing I can say negative about this place is the prices are a bit on the dear side.

Have to say I just don’t get the whole Nandos concept. In my opinion it’s nothing more than glorified but expensive & very average fast food style chicken & chips. You pay for your food before you get it. You have to go up & get your own drink, cutlery, sauces, napkins etc. It’s very bad value for money.

Visited the first time ever today to celebrate my birthday and to see what was all the fuss about, and oh my lordie lord the food is delicious! Not only the chicken was amazing but also the mashed potatoes and coleslaw.
The staff were very friendly and made sure we had what we needed. Although the food took a while to come, it was worth the wait. You need to be careful with the sauces though, my mouth was on fire!

Well same fried/​grilled chicken with some southern mixed spices. OK as many refills for drinks was nice. OMG € 30 for 15 chicken wings and two drinks and coleslaw with chips. Overrated I’ll come again Coz I’ve collected enough chilli’s and girlfriend likes it but i may not recommend to anyone. Staff is nice and friendly.

Highly recommended for anyone that’s a fan of great chicken, nice music and friendly staff. May be a bit confusing to order for the first time but the staff is very helpful.

It’s just fried chicken. I really don’t get it. The staff are incredibly nice though, as well as really efficient. I’d never suggest coming here but don’t object when others do. I feel bad for such a ‘meh’ review, but it really does bring out the ‘meh’ in me.

Had lunch here. Not a lot of variety. The chicken is great quality but expensive. The sides are not great. I would consider it a glorified KFC. Worth a shot if you like spicy chicken.

so yeah the ordering system makes no sense to me. We came in, we were asked to wait for a table in a seating area, then we were given a table and told to get up again and go order at the counter back where we were originally waiting… then sit down again… but then if we wanted to order anything extra we could do that from the table.
I have no problem with fast food and the cost cutting efficiency that comes with that. I do, however, have a problem with confusing eating experiences that are unnecessarily complicated.
As for the food itself, it is all about the chicken. I got the pitta meal and it was nice and the chicken was good. Although not as good as crackbird, which (and I never thought I’d say this) actually has a better system. Portions are not huge and I really would compare it in dining experience to Eddie Rockets… and like Eddie’s its probably not really worth the price you pay — you can get a decent early bird for around the price for this. If you buy a soft drink you get free refill, but there’s the usual disincentives of the small glass and having to get up to get it
Still it was nice to try it and see what the fuss was about. Don’t really think I’d bother going there again.

Starved after a day of shopping, we stood outside of Nando’s and saw a decent enough crowd inside to give it a try. I typically make the move for beef or seafood in Ireland, because it’s so fresh and tastes fantastic. I don’t usually crave chicken, so I wasn’t particularly feeling the place when I found out they only do chicken. BUT their sauces are a wide variety (lime and mango, lemon and pepper, and all kinds of spicy variations), so it changes the flavor. I wasn’t overly impressed by the food, but the customer service was some of the best I’ve seen.
For example, a woman at the table next to me ordered before me, but was served much later. The manager personally apologized for their error for the lateness of her meal, and gave her a voucher for a complimentary meal on her next visit.
At our own table we were finishing our meal when this same manager offered to refill more of our sides. This was generous, because their portions had already been fair for the price.
This place adds a different variety to the meal scene, but most importantly serves up top notch service. I like a place where the staff looks out for their customers and treats you with respect.

LOVE Nandos. Used to always get the chicken burger but now Im addicted to the chicken butterfly. The salad tends to be abit mean so I always get the chips which you can get sprinkled with hot tasty special nandos dust which is gorgeous. Staff always super nice, they ahve a loyalty card too which is fab for poor students like me and you can refill on drinks as much as you want. WINNER

Overrated. Too expensive. Definitely cheaper, tastier places to go in town.
Chicken was nothing special. Couldn’t get plain white rice. Only spicey: sweet potato mash was pre made and had milk. So couldn’t have it (lactose intolerant)

Good tasty food in here. But portion sizes could be a bit bigger. Don’t get the whole queuing up to order when they have table service for everything else. I found the menu to be a bit limited but I suppose it is fast food after all.

There was no plans to go for lunch in town. The objective was to get the shopping done and go home, but I was hungry. Where could I suggest we eat, that would entice the hubby? Chicken, he likes chicken. Where could we get some chicken?
Nando’s! We had never been, would he like to try it? Of course he would! It was packed, but we got a seat. I won’t go through the whole process, others have commented on it.
I got the chicken in pita, yummers!!! The greens were lovely and fresh and just delish. The coleslaw was nice and cooled my mouth down after tasting the Hot sauce, next time I’ll just start at medium. Hubby had the ¼ chicken and I’m pretty sure he liked it, if the sounds of lip smacking and the pile of picked clean bones were anything to go by.
As fast food goes, I like it. Not the cheapest maybe, but sure, at least I felt I had proper food rather than «filler»
I will be back. I’ve got some shopping to do on Saturday… bok, bok, bok, bok, bok

i got seated really fast even though the place was packed. you go to the counter to order and pay before taking a seat at your table and waiting on your food. it was a short wait, staff were attentive and the food was yummy. i had half a chicken, chips and corn on the cob. they were all cooked to perfection and the seasoning was a very nice surprise, i loved it!
because of how you order and pay before you seat this place has a slight fast food feel to it but the food is so much better then that! prices were good too!
