Nandos is good for a causal dinner and I enjoy that they run differently than your normal restaurant. When the order was placed they brought the food to the table and everyone seemed to enjoy the experience and atmosphere of the restaurant. With that said, I left one star off because I think the food could be a little better. The chips (French fries) were bland and I ordered a side salad but the salad dressing was not great. I would still go back and try ordering other things next time because I do like Nandos! read more

Nando's and Dakota has become a Sunday night Tradition for my friends and I just a great way to end a stressful and long week, the Decor is just so warm and inviting and you feel instantly at home when you arrive, the music is relaxing and different which is a great thing, the food speaks for itself the chicken burger is brilliant as is the chicken in general, The Nando sauce bottles litter the table as we all have are favorite nandos sauce mine is Garlic Herb. Just such an enjoyable experience from start to finish I recommend it to anyone. read more

Really like eating here. It's grown on me and now I have a routine of lunch here with friends that work nearby. I love the way it's all you can drink and the chicken tastes great. Garlic bread isn't the nicest but the chicken and the burgers are excellent. read more

Considering how much I'd heard about Nando's, I really expected a lot more. The chicken was pretty good, but I've had better pirri-pirri elsewhere. It's a nice location, and there's nothing that really distinguishes it either in a good way or bad. I remember the people behind the counter weren't very nice to my friend when she didn't exactly understand the way the restaurant worked (it took me a second to figure it out my first time too). All in all, it's good but it's not very good. read more

So after all the hype of hearing all the celebrities and footballers loving Nandos and spending hundreds of euros on it, I'm looking at you Bieber so I finally shuffled my ass down there. First of all I went to the Dundrum restaurant and the guy said the waiting list was an hour are you kidding me? So we trekked into town on the luas instead and got seated immediately saved us about half an hour wandering around dundrum. On to the food ... our waiter explained the concept to us as Nando's virgins! I got the hot butterfly chicken (not arsed dealing with the bones) with spicy rice and for the craic grilled halloemi cheese. Chicken was okay nothing special and the marinade didn't seem fresh, spicy rice very dry needed sauce which I got from the many many varieties of piri piri sauce on the counter. The main reason I give it the extra star is the halloemi cheese it was delish!!! Conclusion: It was okay but I wouldn't be running back anytime soon. read more

The staff, specifically Louis, made this an unreal experience for my friends and me. He perfectly explained the ordering process and we left with smiles on our faces. Never had such great service in my life. 10/10 great experience all around read more

BAD CUSTOMER SERVICE!!! It was my first time coming here and I ordered my food at the bar and the woman taking my order was very rude. I went back to the bar to see if I needed to get my drink there and she said to me very rudely "Yeah I already told you we're bringing it to your table". I didn't appreciate it so I walked away angrily and said she was being rude. She decided to personally bring my drink to my table herself and let me know that she didn't appreciate my comment and that I was in the wrong. I apologized but she never did for the way she spoke to me. At my job back home if I were to speak to anyone the way she spoke to me I would be fired on the spot and if I confronted a customer I would also be fired on the spot. Don't come here if you want good customer service. read more

First time in Nandos. Wasn't sure what to expect. Very novel experience. A bit pricey for what you get..piri piri chicken...but enjoyable eating nonetheless. DIY spice levels and bottomless soft drinks are always a great idea. Very nice family evening all round. Nice staff and surroundings. Will definitely go again. read more

Been waiting since 8:27. Food came at 9:27. We were told the food would come out in 5 minutes and ended up waiting another 20. Luckily the manager was nice enough to offer starters on the house as well as free combos for our next visit. Food was good. A little cold. read more

Went there for dinner with a friend and the food was outstanding!! Probably one of the best place for spicy chicken! Service was great also!

This is the most amazing restaurant ever great customer service delicious food and free refills. The food comes very fast and they have a different but better way of ordering. It is a restaurant based on spice but they also have milder options for people that don't like spicy food. read more

This restaurant has the most generous staff I have ever met. We arrived in Dublin from San Francisco less than one hour before, having just gotten off an 11 hour flight and getting familiar with driving in a nee city, on the opposite side of the car and road!When our car broke down outside their restaurant they let me use their phone to call AA. Next, they gave us a seat by the window so we could watch for the tow truck. The food was great, just the right amount of spice. Lastly, when we were about to pay, they told us that it was on the house because "you are having a bad day." I would recommend this place to anybody looking for honest, respectful service and great food. read more

We first found nando's on a trip to belfast and were delighted when they came to Dublin we have since tried Dundrum, Mary street and most recently Andrews street all are good in our opinion but Andrews st. win hands down we've been four or five times now with family and with friends and enjoyed ourselves every time, love the food and the staff here are always friendly and helpful. The carrot cake is my absolute favourite. Hope to be back again this weekend! read more

OVERCHARGED BY €400 AND YET TO BE REIMBURSED We had a terrible experience at Nando's in Santry Dublin last week 16th of Dec 2015. The cashier incorrectly charged me €440 on my debit card instead of €44 for a meal for 3 adults and 1 child. The receipt amount was €44 in total and I only realised this when I happen to view my online banking current account statement balance that evening that I had been overcharged. I immediately called the branch to highlight the huge discrepancy that same evening. In short the management have acknowledged that error was on their side and that it was the cashiers mistake. They have stated that I will have to wait up to 10 days for the €400 to be credited back onto my account. I asked if I could go up and get the amount back in cash however they refused this request. Given the time of year only a week before Christmas this is an unacceptable timeline to effectively only be credited back my own money after Christmas and in 2016! This error on Nandos part has impacted my ability to purchase Christmas and Santa presents for my family. It has ruined our family's Christmas and I feel that is it unacceptable. I am still waiting to hear back from the companies Managing Director and on the 22nd Dec I have still not received my money back from this firm. read more

i walked into the establishment with bae and never in my life was i greeted so beautifully by Daniel M. He almost made waiting at the waiting area an event, His man bun sexy to the fullest pedigree; Bae and i were sat at the waiting area, bodies warmed by Daniels excellent customers service. We were enjoying our first few moments in the establishment when we noticed that the other customers had been seated before us .... we then realised that Daniel M did not favourite us any longer. Feeling unloved and forgotten we were soon seated. Baes booty requires special attention due to fact that it was crafted by God himself, but when she sat on the couch; it was almost as if nandos were trying to destroy Gods work. Once we were disappointedly seated, Daniel M rejoined us and the longing love of Daniel Rejuvenated back into our hearts, "Have you been to Nandos before" his words hit us like when the peri peri milk of a peri peri cow hits the bucket. We guiltily told Daniel that we had not popped our nandos cherry. He explained the basics in such a quick precise manner and left us to fend for ourselves. Body shaking, Bae confused, The Knives of the kitchen created a soundtrack for us as we looked at the menu; we were struck with thunderous confusion ... the choices mixed with the aroma of chicken excited our taste buds, while discussing options with bae, we both came to the conclusion that this.... oh this.... this shall be a cheeky nandos indeed. Choosing two half whole chickens each; hot for myself and medium for bae, we chose the sides that we felt had the most potential, Garlic bread, Peri Peri chips and Corn, Mmmmm, I can still taste that Peri peri chips. Turning our menu to the back, baes eyes lit up like ive never seen before, one word she whispered "alcohol", hello? yeah, she wants to say a few words Hey, yeah this is bae - As i set my eyes on the beer section of the menu i was disappointed by the choices, Let down, i was pushed to settle for "super bock beer"... yeah so im gonna give it back to him now. bye. I walked up to order, and my god was this the worst experience of my life "barlic Gread, with paru paru sauce, corn and 2 large chickens please" were the first words out of my mouth, Stuttered with embarrassment i pulled myself together, Ordered everything and sat down as fast as i could. Bae and I, we're normal people, okay? but when one has to stand up and collect their own cutlery, then thats another bad review for another bad day. The variety of music was so tasteful and mood setting that bae and i proceeded to perform our own special medley of violent lyrics over the sweet serenade of Nandos Salsa music but the music could not stop what was about to happen, Kevin hart knew.... he knew it was about to go down. As the meal was coming to an end, we were interrupted by an outrageous scene erupting beside us it was clear that the two female customers had beef with a male customer. Unaware at the beginning what the beef was about, we soon discovered that an act of unintentional racism had occurred; not wanting to get involved the male dragged me into the conversation "these two its like they've never seen a brown guy before" i nodded uncomfortably as he spoke those words to me regarding the two females. and then it went crazyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy; Daniel M returned trying to stop the fight but the man did not back down "eat your food, You need it" he hurled at one "you're fat, look atcha, you're fat" he hurled at the other. "stop looking" bae whispered to me, but the peri peri chicken was beautiful food for the front row seats to this Saturday night beef, all in all the girls were racist. and they did not finish they're peri peri chicken, as they left in a haste from the embarrassment caused to them, I had fun, Bae had fun, we went home and had some hot peri peri fun of our own ;) x read more
