Nando's - Sheffield

I have to confess, I was eager to visit Nando's. The location on Ecclesall Road turned out to be larger than I anticipated, but it was just as friendly and the food was just as good. It definitely lived up to my expectations.

If you haven't tried Nando's, you are missing out. This restaurant chain offers a unique experience that falls somewhere between a full-service restaurant and fast food, and the food is delicious.

The chicken was perfectly cooked and flavorful. The free refills on drinks were a nice touch!

Went earlier this evening, always love Nandos but had a bad experience at this branch. Despite the fact that I ordered first out of my table my food never came. When almost everyone had finished eating, 20 minutes after their dishes arrived I was finally able to get a waiters attention and request my food which was then plated up (we didn't get our cursory check from a waiter during the meal as no rooster had been placed at our table). I don't believe it was the extra hot as ordered as well. No apology or anything. Very substandard service.

If you haven 't tried Nando 's, you don 't know what you 're missing. This chain fills the gap between full-service restaurants and fast food very nicely. As a regular customer, I 'm now very used to the style of service and don 't find it at all inconvenient. The customer orders their food at the counter, and collects their own (refillable) soft drink or bottle of beer from the counter and self-service soda machine, before picking up a set of cutlery, but from this point onwards everything is handled by your server. Service of the increasingly-expanding grilled chicken range is very rapid and you can see the entire production process very clearly from the restaurant area, which provides a great deal of confidence in the origin of the product you are eating. Cooked from fresh, chicken is available in 1 4, 1 2 or whole chicken sizes, as well as various chicken burgers wings etc, and comes with a choice of peri-peri sauces ranging from very mild to blow-your-head-off hot. There is definitely a heat level for everybody though, and don 't be put off if you don 't like spicy food. The quality of the food on offer at Nando 's is definitely high, and although you may be eating chicken and chips with garlic bread, it feels like a 'proper ' meal in a restaurant rather than a fast-food joint. Nando 's is great value for money and highly recommended for all.
