We ordered a whole chicken w/ roasted broccoli as a side. The chicken was moist & nicely seasoned. The basting sauce and peri-peri sauce enhanced the flavor. You can add more peri peri sauce according to your heat preference. Likewise the broccoli was fresh & crunchy, and went well as a side. They offer many other sides like chips, salad, et al. Regarding the ambiance, its casual here. You can either order at the counter or your table. Afterwards, they bring your food to you. You have to grab your own plates and utensils. The staff is super nice & helpful. I would definitely return for a healthy, low priced meal at Nando's. It was way better and cheaper vs the mall food we had earlier in the day.

The inside is large with lots of tables, and it wasn't hard to find a place to sit even though it was lunchtime. Ordering was accomplished by scanning a QR code at your table, but unfortunately the WiFi was not working. Staff were able to assist us with ordering at the counter. We tried the grilled strips with peri peri fries and garlic bread. The chicken was tender and delicious with an amazing flavor. The fries were similarly delicious and sprinkled with a zesty seasoning. The garlic bread was perfect. Crunchy outside and soft inside with just the right amount of garlic flavor. Despite an ordering snafu, this was an overall great and delicious dining experience. Look for Nando's on your next travels, or visit one of their locations in the US!

The place was called Hurricane's Express and by the name it looks like the smaller version of the flagship franchise found near the harbour. Contrary to what the name may imply there was plenty of tables and seats both inside and outside. Ordered the half rack of lamb with baked potato. The portion was quite large and the lamb was very tasty. Didn't feel like the lamb was too fatty which was a good thing and the bakes potato was large and enjoyable. For a "half portion" this really felt like a full blown meal. Service was satisfactory, food didn't take too long to come out. Definitely satisfied with the meal and enjoyed it enough to come back and try something else.

Sure they have delicious, fresh chickens but they also have a large selection of hot chicken dishes like chicken curry, chicken stir fry, even chicken schnitzel plus lots of different salads. If you want my pick of the lot, try a whole Portuguese chicken (better than Nando's!) or if you want to add a bit of flavour to a regular chicken grab a tub of their lemon and herb or chilli sauce - for $1.50 a tub you can't go wrong.

A quarter of chicken and chips will leave you bursting, so much is provided, and it'll be so tasty you'll not want to stop. Portuguese chicken is fantastic, so are their marinated drumsticks, devil wings, wedges & potato bake, and most of their daily specials that change from day to day. Their chicken schnitzel is where they really let things down. It's always over-tenderised and they try to recover the flavour too much with herbs and spices, over-doing it. The over-tenderizing also leaves it a little thin so it often gets over-cooked too. Their lasagne, while fantastic, is provided to the chains cold and when ordered gets heated unevenly in a microwave. It really lets it down. It'd be nice if they could warm it up some other way, or in a device that doesn't warm it up so unevenly. I used to be a regular at their Chatswood outlet, but now visit this one at Neutral Bay almost exclusively - purely due to convenience and current location of home/work. Both of these chains are pretty much identical in food quality & choices.

Calling this restaurant "African food" is like going to a restaurant advertising, "Latin American…read morefood." Super general. Africa is a continent of 53 countries and each with a unique style of cooking and individual flavors (credibility re: I lived in Ghana for a bit). The menu claims a couple of their dishes are "north African." To translate, this means the food is pretty curry-esque & emphasis on the sauce. The service was confused and hurried, but helpful and they ultimately delivered without attitude or complaint. There is one African woman in the kitchen and the others are of different ethnicities. I tend to be suspicious of quality & authenticity when ethnic food is cooked by someone not of the heritage. The kitchen is open so you can see things being prepared - there are no hats or hairnets worn, so that is another risk you take when eating here. It's good that it's a lot of curry so it would all gets boiled out eventually... right? Portions are small, BYO liquor. Comes off as lower-to-mid-priced but because you're basically forced to buy side dishes with the main meal to make it well-rounded, in total it's about $20/person. I recommend eating family style with 1 main dish and 1 side dish for each individual at minimum (carbs like rice, couscous, or flat bread are considered side dishes). While the place is fairly small and they could join tables together, I wouldn't bring a group bigger than 4 people here as anything more would make family-style sharing rather difficult for everyone to taste test everything because the portions are so small. Chicken and lamb are their best, most succulent dishes. Lamb felt like it melted in my mouth before I even started chewing. The fish, on the other hand, was dry and overcooked. Would not order it again. Went well with the African flat bread, however. Wouldn't recommend this spot to anyone, but wouldn't mind going here again if we were in the area and someone was really curious about African food.

There was only one staff waiting tables when we were there. It took a while before we got the menu, also took a while after we ordered before we were told that that one of the dishes would take too long to make and that we should order something else. We ordered a chicken dish, but received a lamb dish instead. Because it took so long for the dish to be served, we didn't say anything and just ate the lamb instead. Also the veggie dishes were served cold and they were served way before the main dish arrived. The food was alright, it was good but I wasn't a fan of the cold veggies; so it wasn't for me.

We were seated downstairs in their covered outdoor seating area. They also have indoor seating upstairs. Service wasn't too bad overall but they really could have checked on us more often after they had delivered our food. The food was kind of mixed. A couple in the group had ordered steaks and they were bland and tough. I ordered the Kangaroo for the table and we got that medium rare. Super tender and while it could have used more seasoning, the sauce we got with it paired perfectly. For myself I got the burger and beef ribs combo. For me this is where things go down hill. The beef ribs were TOUGH, hard to bite through and get off of the bone. As for the burger it was pretty dry but luckily I had the sauce from the kangaroo to fix that. I can say that the fries were perfectly cooked though. They have a number of cocktails to choose from but the beer menu was pretty limited.

The locals we were with cautioned us that it's generally very lean and can be tough so we were a bit apprehensive despite wanting to give it a shot so we decided to get it as an appetizer for the table to share and order other mains (it wasn't offered as an app on the menu, but they were gracious enough to do this for us). It cane out a perfect medium rare and I honestly would have believed you if you told me it was beef. I expected a gamier flavor but it was very mild, perhaps a slight note of iron in the aftertaste, but actually very good. For my main I got a steak sandwich and unfortunately I wish I had just gotten the kangaroo as my main, because the steak sandwich was just okay. On a positive note the server did replace my wine after a fly decided to practice treading in it (it failed). We were sitting outside, so I definitely don't blame them that it happened and they replaced my whole glass despite the fact that I had already drank half of it, so I give them points for that. That said, if I did come back here it would only be for the kangaroo if I happened to be here with someone that had never had it before.
