    Come here. Order half chicken, hot, with rice and macho peas. Enjoy it. Make fun of your Brit friends in New York for not having Nando's.

    The South African chain serves signature flame-grilled peri-peri chicken on the bone or in a sandwich, wrap, or pita with sauces for all spice levels and sides including butternut squash with corn. Read more

    The chicken is great quality and the sauces are to die for. The mango-lime is my favorite. The chocolate spoon cake is an awesome. Great wait service and its a super cool and trendy spot.

    Finally the restaurant my family got to know so well in London is finally here! The chicken with the different sauces are always a hit. The sides delish & healthy. Very family friendly.

    Order a quarter, half, or full chicken, pick a sauce to put on top of it, and pick a side. That's it! The sauce is made of "peri-peri," which gives the chicken an incredibly unique kick. Read more

    If you love chicken you have to check this place out!! Try the spiciest sauce. It's delish! Hard to say which entree was the best because I've had everything before and they all are tasty!

    Finally in Chicago! Been to Nandos in DC and London but so happy to have one at home. Try the medium spice chicken - delicious flavor. Staff is very helpful and the atmosphere is fun!

    Went to the one in Streeterville on 8/8. I had the Peri Chips w/ Perrinaise (housemade sauce) aka fries. The service was good and it didn't take long to get the food. They forgot one thing, napkins.

    The chicken is a specialty of course, and the cute decor and lively atmosphere makes this place amazing as well

    The chicken is moist and perfectly grilled. Make sure to try the varying degrees of hot sauces - and the garlic bread.

    Peri-peri sauce on chicken is delicious. Outside seating is quite nice on a sunny day. Good price.

    The 'hot' 1/2 chicken wasn't very hot. It was tasty, but nothing particularly special. Frankly, it was pretty similar to a grocery store rotisserie in my opinion.
