Yes, not bad. Just the extra hot sauce is less hot than medium. In french we say, dommage essaie encore ❤️ Very good experience

I would say the food has gone down hill in Nando's quite a bit and is pretty tasteless and bland. The service was good, thanks to Daniel, but I would say there are much better places to eat in the local area for the same price.

I have been ordering take away for months now but tonight had another bad experience. My chicken wings were not done at all and tasted horrible almost like raw. I finally decided to make a complain and was patronized by the Manager who tried to make me feel like an idiot for complaining. I ordered my food online 1hour in advance because I know how the restaurant is busy. In the end I was sent back without refund and food replacement. Will definitely not come back.

I was greeted and sat at a table fast enough but then, crickets…staff walking past me on a very quiet Tuesday just after 3pm not offering a drink. After 10 minutes I look up and the guy who sat me is chatting to the chefs over the pass. I got up and left too hungry to confront the matter. Very disappointing.

Chain of restaurants specializing in chicken with spicy sauces. Well priced dinner (around £20 each for a decent whole grilled chicken with a side dish and Coca cola). Friendly and rather precise service.

Rude incompetent staff. Ordered food through table barcode, app crashed and server advised it had went through and they are making the order. then 20 mins pass and they advise there’s no order so instead of making food demand that I come up and pay even though showed evidence of payment going through. No food in the end and no refund given. Avoid this branch at all costs.

Popped in and was greeted and seated promptly. Staff checked we knew how to order etc and we chose to order via the app. Drinks were delivered promptly and food arrived in good time. The food was hot, good portion sizes and was nice. It doesn't claim to be gourmet food, and for a chain restaurant we were pleasantly surprised. The restaurant is fairly big, but was warm and comfortable. Plenty seating for larger groups and unlimited soft drinks option is good. Good options for vegetarians.

First time trying a “Nando’s” I don’t like this concept where you have to order every thing you want to eat. For example, you have to order chicken separately, fries separately, vegetables separately. You can't have all three in the same dish, but anyway. The PiriPiri chicken was very good, I had the herb sauce and it was very delicious. The staff was very friendly and efficient

The "manager" on the night has a dreadful attitude. He should really engage with his customers and welcome them. We were brought at least four wrong dishes to our table whilst we were there, showing a lack of control from the kitchen. Two of our party did not have their food arrive. When we enquired about where their food was they didn't have a clue. Then one of our party had his starters and mains arrive at the same time. An absolute terrible experience, from 2mins in there and being interacted with by the "manager". Will never be going back there after that.

I'm a big Nando's fan and have thoroughly enjoyed my experiences at several of their other locations, which I would easily rate 5 stars. However, this particular Nando's location is a major disappointment and the worst I've been to. To start, the food quality here is severely lacking. The peri-peri chicken, which is normally the star of the show at Nando's, was incredibly bland and tasteless. It's as if the kitchen just rushed through the preparation without properly seasoning or cooking the chicken. Even the sides like the chips/fries seemed underseasoned and subpar. The service was also a major letdown. The staff seemed hurried and disinterested, barely acknowledging us as customers. Getting our orders taken, receiving our food, and getting refills on our drinks all took far longer than it should have. It felt like the staff just wanted to get us in and out as quickly as possible. And speaking of drinks, the worst part of this Nando's visit was the fountain drinks. They tasted absolutely watered down, like they were just serving straight tap water. For a restaurant chain that prides itself on quality, this was a shocking disappointment, especially since we were paying a premium for the unlimited refills. Overall, I'm shocked at how much this Nando's location missed the mark compared to all the others I've been to. The food was tasteless, the service was rushed and uncaring, and even the drinks were subpar. I'd give this specific location just 2 stars. I'll continue visiting other Nando's, but I won't be returning to this one anytime soon.

Brilliant food and superb service. A special thank you to the boy that served us - Rory! Not only was he polite and quick with our food, but he also donated both of his kidneys. He then offered to pay for my tuition fees right before fixing my dad’s alcohol addiction. I’ll be forever grateful to that young man.

This was my first time in Nando's. It was an awesome experience. Our server that came and sat us was awesome. The food was pretty tasty. Not everything was for us like the minty peas, but it was well cooked. The sauces were awesome, too. The Peri Peri Garlic was my favorite.

Good food, service was friendly, atmosphere I will justify - we dined for an early dinner/late lunch due to flying later that evening, we went in and the restaurant was empty, we were the only ones in there for a good half hour or so, and even when other tables arrived they were put in a different area to us. If we had dined during a busier period, the atmosphere I would assume would be a lot nicer, the restaurant itself is very nice.

I like the concept of placing your order yourself and not having servers. The food came out really quickly! I had the chicken wrap and my husband had the chicken sandwich. Both were tasty and it is fun to try all the sauces that are available. The wrap was pretty small but that could just be my perception as an American. Atmosphere is fine but the tables are a bit too close together.

Reliable Nandos experience in pleasant, roomy premises with lots of windows looking out onto Lothian Road, the Usher Hall, the Film house, and the Lyceum Theatre. It's a very handy location for these venues and it is also close to the West end of Princes Street. I ordered and paid from the app and the food was delivered to the table along with my glass for the bottomless Coke Zero. My only criticisms are to do with the soft drinks fountain. The Coke Zero seemed to be set wrong, or running out of syrup, as it tasted watery. My server kindly took it away and refilled the glass with Diet Coke for me, so that was a positive experience. There Portobello mushroom pitta was delicious as ever, this time with an extra of grilled pineapple. I enjoyed the quiet, calm atmosphere (mid-afternoon!) and appreciated that they now offer free wi-fi. It has been well over a year since my last Nando's visit.
