    I've officially been converted - I'm in love with Nando's. My first taste of a good Nando's in…read moreBritain was at their Cardiff branch in the Brewery Quarter but when my friends decided to come to this branch for some dinner, I have to admit that I was skeptical as I didn't think that all Nando's would be of the same quality. I'm happy to report that I was definitely wrong! ~ Atmosphere: Your standard Nando's decor. They have their own on-site parking which is a definite bonus and the interior is pretty large. From what I can tell, Nando's is quite popular so there were loads of people there even on a weekday night. ~ Customer Service: Really good. Like other Nando's, you order at the counter and they bring your food out to you (get your own cutlery and drinks). The servers though were especially friendly and willing to have a laugh with you as well. Gives a warm atmosphere and nice feeling. ~ Food: I ordered the Chicken Thighs + 2 Sides (Mash and Peri-Peri Chips). Absolutely delicious! The chicken thighs were tender and the medium Nando's sauce it was cooked in was divine as usual. One thing I do love about Nando's is that there's free extra sauce provided if you want; I love drizzling on some extra hot sauce! --- I've yet to experience a bad Nando's in Britain and I hope this trend continues. I'm addicted to that sauce!

    Decent food and good sides. The Chicken burger I has was a bit dry and the bread was hard and dry (…read moretoo long under the head lamp!) The redemption was the Chicken Wings they were cooked perfect and very tasty. Not giving them 5 stars because we had to wait over 20 min for our food to be ready.

    I can't believe no one has reviewed Uncle Sam's yet! It's a bit of a classic American fast food…read moretakeaway right in the heart of Studentville, on Crwys Road (in Cathays/Roath). It has been going for years, and has managed to hold on to its fine reputation for decent quality and value for money throughout that time. It IS rather tiny, however, so it's possible you could easily walk past and miss it - but once you've been there once for food, you'll be a complete convert. Basically, they do American fast food - mainly burgers. It's not healthy, and it's not complicated, but what they do they do very well. The belly-busting All American 1/2 pound burger with fries and a tub of blue cheese sauce seems to go down well with meat-eaters, while there's a generously proportioned veggie option for people like me who don't eat beef. They also do chicken and pizza, but to be honest if you go to Uncle Sam's it should be for a burger, because that's what they do best. Excellent value for money!

    Best chicken in Cardiff, I repeat for effect Uncle Sam's is the best chicken in Cardiff. I used to…read morelive in the States and as anyone who has been there or is from the U.S will tell you bigger is better! Why? It just is and Uncle Sam's certainly lives up to its American namesake. The restaurant is tiny and like other reviews have said it so easy to miss, so its beggars belief how such a small place can churn out such big and hearty portions of food. The price is ok but that is completely offset by taste of the food, as the juicy and flavourful chicken engulfs your taste buds. Of course chicken is not for everyone and they do have plenty of other dishes on the menu such as huge burgers (which have appeared to been given a real shout in other reviews) and pizza but honestly I personally think Uncle Sam's rules the roost!
