The best restaurants serving Portuguese food in South East

Nando's Hempstead Valley, Gillingham, Kent Located in the middle of a huge, free car park, this establishment is easily accessible especially to drivers. It’s also served by local buses including 007, 113, 130, 132, 659 to the best of my knowledge.  Although at busy times you may have to queue for a table the wait is not too long. Most of the time there is no waiting.  Staff are very pleasant, helpful, welcoming and attentive without being overbearing. The food is tasty with a variety of dressings and sauces available to suit all tastes.  I particularly recommend their Mediterranean salad.  They still use their loyalty card and give discounts to NHS workers. They are allergy conscious and there is disabled access. They cater for children too. They also have a seating area outside for when the weather is conducive. All in all a pleasant establishment to visit.

After visiting many other Nando's we are extremely disappointed with this experience, food quality was poo with very dry chicken and fries as well as having no taste whatsoever, the restaurant itself was red hot and the beer was warm. Poor service this time I'm afraid Nando's

Nando’s seem to have done away with any garnishing in their pittas. Had a chicken pitta which was basically the chicken and the bread. When queried with staff they said they all come like this. Wife’s bean meal was absolutely disgusting as well.

My family and I are big Nando fans. The one at Oxford Westgate has always been reliably good for us with staff and managers always being very accommodating and generous. Still our favourite place to eat.

Me and my husband wanted some lunch and brought our special need child. Our child will not eat at Nando’s so we brought him food and were told he could not eat it there and turned us away even though we were paying customers. There were only 3 other groups in there at the time so clearly they didn’t care about getting more money. We have done this same thing at other Nando’s and they have always been supportive. Very disappointed and will not be back

Friendly staff and clean table food mostly fine but garlic bread too hard to eat was like a brick toilets could go with being a bit cleaner but overall enjoyable
