Nando’s

Nandos one of my favourite place to dine in. Quater peri peri chicken with coleslaw and nandos chip is my all time food order. Succulent chicken with crunchy skin is really delicious. I particularly love their chips because it is thick and soft inside and it is sprinkled with peri peri powder. If you like rice, you can order the mediterranean rice as your side dishes. All the outlets at nandos is pretty much on the same standard. They have their signature sauces hot, garlic, and extra hot peri peri sauce. I usually mix both garlic and extra hot peri peri by far the best combination. You can always opt for your favourite part of the chicken that you wanna eat either thigh of breast.

I am not sure why but nando’s service has been dropping down lately. I mean I love the food and I’m sure everyone does and it is not easy to find replacement for nando’s, but sometimes their service just make you want to second guess eating here.
I mean, it is not like it is always bad, but last time I went out for lunch with my colleague few months back, we were a group of 8 people, and we sat down on nando’s here in Bangsar Village, and called the waiter couple times just to get our order, and we never got any respond for half an hour till we decided to just walk away. So disappointing.
It is like a love and hate relationship. The one in Bangsar doesn’t have the best service, I think Nu Sentral has the most awesome service amongst all, but Nando’s in Bangsar have pretty decent wi-​fi, and when it is not too crowded, then most likely you will get your food and you can sit down quiet and nicely and enjoy their appetising grilled chicken.

Nando’s has been present in Malaysia for many years now and is an ever popular favorite for many Malaysians. However I feel that over the years the portions have been getting smaller and smaller as opposed to the price which has been increasing. A couple of years ago, I could order an Ala Carte ¼ chicken and be full but now days I find myself ordering a ¼ chicken and 2 sideline and only being satisfied with my meal.
The service her is terrible. Most of the waiters are slow and chose to ignore the customers. I have seen on more than one occasion where a waiter has seen a customer and just turned their head in the other direction and walk away.
Though the portions have gotten smaller, the quality has remained the same, which is good as i have yet to find anything that tastes as good as nandos chicken.

Requesting for vegan food at a grilled chicken diner is, what most people would say, is a joke. Nando’s do have a few vegan options, mainly wraps, side dishes and salads. I like how their menu states all the food information such as a dish being dairy-​free, nut-​free or even vegan-​friendly as some people may have specific requirements for food due to certain allergies. Their veggie side dishes include roasted veggies, fresh salad, rice, beans, corn on the cob. Though it may seem like a lot, I paid almost RM 7.90 per side dish. And due to it being a SIDE dish, it was a child-​like serving size. Eating here would cost a lot, in general, but if there’s a certain occasion and there’s not much you could do, this would be the solution.
The staff here are attentive and friendly too. Young and also vibrant, they are up to beat with the customers. They even took the time to explain what’s good on their menu. Also, if you come here, you HAVE to try out their condiments. Their Peri-​Peri sauces are the bomb. It can go from Hot to Extra Extra Hot. Do not be fooled though, these flavors pack a punch and a whole lot of heat.

Suffice to say that every time my boyfriend wants to go for lunch for some reason he wants to go to Nando’s.
I know what’s the reason but so every time we are near the mall and if there’s a Nando’s around we have to try the food. His favourite meal is the one you can share for only RM55. You can actually have a whole chicken and you can choose from 4 side or 2 specialty sites.
The restaurant is really neat and really pretty, they have a really nice decorations inside and we to love their hot sauce. We even buy them for cooking at home. The restaurant has really good food and the prices are pretty good. You can even have a meal between RM12 to RM15 or you can choose one of the shared plates.

Oh my Nandos. Feel like eating half a chicken? Come to Nandos, thats what I do anyways. No doubt, Nandos is known for their Peri-​Peri sauce, which starts off from Lemon & Herb, Mild, Hot, and Extra Hot. I really like how I can choose how my chicken taste like depending on my mood.
A normal set here includes the chicken, and sides of your choice. The fries here are really good, and you can ask for more Peri Sprinkles, which is the seasoning. If you prefer to feel healthier, you can also get the grilled vegetables, but why? Just kidding, vegetables are good.
You can also opt for a bottomless drink, but I usually do fine with just a glass of plain water. Yes! One of those rare places that lets you get plain water. I don’t know about other outlets though.

Not a fan of Nando’s? Then gurlll you gotta set that straight.
What I ALWAYS order when I come here is the quarter chicken, (half when I’m feeling greedy, and end up regretting because I can’t finish), you have the choice of either Lemon & Herb, Mild, Hot, or Extra Hot PERi-​PERi sauce of which I obviously go for Hot or Extra Hot, with my sides of regular chips and grilled vegetables, and there you go, all your daily nutrition needed on one plate. The chips is made very basic with simple seasoning, but what I truly appreciate is that my fries are never soggy and oily. The grilled vegetables though slightly oily, is still my fav because your vegetables are accentuated by the smokey flavor and it is seasoned well. The butter rice is pretty good too.
Quite frankly, the main reason why I am such a die-​hard fan is because of their Peri Peri sauces. My must haves would be the Garlic and Extra Hot, it goes so well together and it is worth the sting and burn on my lip. Whoever created this heavenly blend of ingredients is god-​sent because you can purchase them at supermarkets and it goes well with just about any meat you cook and is a savior for anything.
It is priced below RM20 for a quarter chicken set, and about RM7.90 for a bottomless soft drink.

I have really mixed feelings about Nando’s.
First, let me tell you about the positives. Nando’s serves Portuguese food, which is delicious and offers healthy options, like the sweet mashed potatoes as a side to their signature Peri-​Peri chicken. The way the menu works is quite clever, giving you the option of a whole chicken, half or a quarter, and different ‘degrees’ of spicy. You can also choose from a variety of side dishes, including corn on the cob, rice and others. The ambiance is quite nice in all outlets I’ve visited.
On the downside, the service is really bad. I’ve been to multiple outlets and found the service rude, rushed and not very helpful. They have a policy of ‘greeting’ you by yelling «Welcome to Nando’s» or something like that, which I find a bit disturbing. Overall, inspite of the service, I really like the food, so I will continue to get my Mild chicken with sweet mashed potatoes.

Whenever I feel like having grilled chicken, I just know I’ll get the most satisfaction at Nando’s. Their peri-​peri chicken is always, and I mean always, grilled to perfection. And the home sauce at Nando’s is just as amazing. They serve their chicken according to one’s taste for spiciness by using one of four different flavors of sauce for the chicken; lemon and herb, mild, hot or extra hot peri-​peri sauce.
The service at the Bangsar Village outlet is very good as they are quick to serve you your food and I like the fact that it is not usually crowded. Also, seeing that it is in Bangsar Village, parking is not a problem.

Nando’s is Nando’s what can I say, if you are in KL and you haven’t tried it and especially the peri peri chicken, then you are missing out! The food is really great, different spices are used to give out amazing taste. I would encourage you to try it out with friends or family.
The staff is friendly and polite. I wouldn’t count on getting super fast service but it doesn’t take long either. and who cares if the food is worth it right? :D
If you want to get delivery, don’t worry about it they provide home delivery. you can even use Food-​Panda to find them :) you can call them here (03) 2287 6555.

If you wanna enter in the wonderland of chicken and spicy food with amazing flavours, Nando’s restaurant is the place. Why? Because they marinate the chicken for 24 hours in a secret sauce until the flavour goes right through to the bone. After that, they flame-​grill and basted with your choice of Nando’s PERi-​PERi sauce. The result is ultimate perfection!
The signature dish of the place is Chicken marinated for at least 24 hours in PERi-​PERi sauce and flame-​grilled to order.
The PERi-​PERi is the heart and soul of Nando’s. It’s the secret ingredient behind the restaurants and it’s so good.
The sauce is delicious with almost anything you want. Nando’s range of PERi-​PERi sauces combine flavour with varying degrees of heat that will satisfy the flavour profile from a PERi-​PERi beginner to a fiery heat seeker.
The price for such an amazing place is between 15 – 30 RM

Nando’s is one of those fun places you’d go to for peri peri good food and fast service. If you go in the afternoon however I wouldn’t recommend sitting outside as it tends to get kind of hot because the outdoor section is situated right beside a the outdoor parking lot.
The last time I was there was with my brother and his now ex-​girlfriend and yes, we made the terrible mistake of sitting outside. We ordered our food and the service was extremely fast which was good as we were extremely hungry at the time. The heat combined with the spiciness of our food made us peri peri hot, but it was the good kind of hot. You know the one that usually comes after stuffing yourself to the brim with spicy chicken kind of good. One thing I know, I left the place feeling extremely satisfied!
One thing though, have I gotten big now or are the chicken nowadays getting smaller?

One of the best places to go for Nando’s in KL is in Bangsar Village for several reasons: There are no queues, the food is served very quickly and the service is outstanding!
When me and my friend came for the very first time we could not believe it, because it really didn’t feel like usual Nando’s experience. It was definitely out of the ordinary. Even the interior of this restaurant was more elegant. I could suggest to bring your date to this Nando!
Something you definitely have to try if you haven’t before is: Butterfly chicken with potato wedges and grilled vegetables! I promise you won’t regret! :)
