I tried this location back in July. Food was pretty good. Hand wash station was great and the restaurant was tidy. My only complaint was the small portion. I had 1/4 leg with 2 sides for $14.49 and sides were smaller than I thought. I didn't feel full. I think I'll only go to Metrotown one since the portion is bigger. Service was fast. read more

We were really impressed with our visit here yesterday for lunch. We were greeted warmly upon entering and the cashier was kind and patient while I reviewed the menu. The restaurant was 2/3 full when we got there and filling up fast. Although the food took a little while to arrive, it was very much worth the wait. We would have liked our drinks out a bit sooner but that's understandable considering how busy they were. The manager was around and checking on all the guests which was a good sign. This is one of our favorite Nando's locations - it's a really comfy place between the booths and tables and welcoming decor. Would strongly recommend a visit here - while you're in the neighborhood check out the Coquitlam crunch, a fun hike that's not too strenuous. read more

I waited for more than 30 minutes for our order. To find out that they messed up the ordering queue. When I brought it to their attention, that was the time they started doing it! I had to cancel because we were really hungry and just wet to another nearby restaurant. read more

I love to go with my family to Nandos. We love this place. They do really delicious chickens. Very very good service. Also highly recommended. read more

Ordered from Uber eats. Chicken sandwich. After a couple bites I get to the middle and its completely RAW. Are you effing kidding me ????

Over-enthusiastic staff spoils dining experience. I love Nando's. No other chicken restaurant beats their Peri-peri chicken. But, I am weary of coming to this location because the staff are way too nauseatingly annoying. You are met at the door by hyper-active greeters who have their charisma dial turned all the way to eleven. Their insincere smiles threaten to crack their faces! The food was quickly prepared and brought to my table. There, I was visited by a different staff member, every two minutes, checking to see if I was enjoying my food and if everything was alright. Seriously, I was interrogated after each and every single bite! The same robotic delivery, and the same line, with the same over-exaggerated smile. Food is great, but expect your privacy to be violated. Go check out other locations. read more

I'm going to start out this review by saying I don't normally review chain restaurants but Nando's has my favourite chicken so it had to be done. This restaurant is located just off the Lougheed HWY in the same parking lot as The Brick. They have loads of FREE parking all throughout the strip mall. Once inside you'll realize this Nando's doesn't look like the others. This particular location has been remodelled to have a more modern look to it. Also, just a heads up, if you've never been to a Nando's before you'll realize you have to order up at the front counter. Wether you're dining-in or taking-out you have to order up at the counter, so grab yourself a menu, give it a little gander, Nando's has plenty of options to suit everyones dining needs. On this visit I ordered the Full Pack that comes with a whole chicken, normally I get the chicken cut up into 8 separate pieces so it's a little easier to share but I forgot to this time. The Full Pack also comes with 2 Nando's Size side-dishes, I chose the Spiced Rice and the PERi-PERi Vegetables. They also throw in 3 Portuguese buns OR garlic bread, but I always just end up choosing the garlic bread because its so good. Since I was dining-in this time I added a soft drink to my order because they have a touchscreen Coca-Cola Freestyle machine where you can customize your drink with tons of different flavours, very cool. I can't find the words to describe the chicken at Nando's. It's literally the best chicken on planet earth. The PERi-PERi hot sauce is tangy spicy and compliments the flame grilled chicken so well. I love the PERi-PERi hot sauce so much that I buy my own bottles of it to take home with me for when I have Nando's leftovers. I started eating Nando's less than 2 years ago and I'm distraught that I didn't know about it sooner. There are no words to describe my love for butterfly-cut, flame-grilled, PERi-PERi chicken. Once you try it I guarantee you won't be able to eat chicken from another restaurant again. I'd like to take this time to warn all the Nando's Newbies out there about the dangerous side effects of PERi-PERi chicken... It is highly addictive. Don't become a Nando's addict. Usually at the end of my reviews I say something like "I'll definitely return" but I think that goes without saying this time. read more

Nando's Peri-Peri - Portuguese Near Me - Coquitlam, British Columbia

A couple weeks back my wife went into this Nandos location and was given the worst service. The kid that helped her, calling himself the manager could not even count using a calculator. Her bill was $13 and she gave him $53 and asked for $40 back. He couldn't figure it out and gave her a huge attitude. So she cancelled her order. He just threw her money back at her. So we spoke to the general manager and corporate. They asked us to give them a second chance and sent us two vouchers for peri peri meals. It turns out those vouchers are only good for a very limited selection on the menu. What a waste of time and effort giving them a second chance was. I would not recommend this place to anyone and in fact, I would caution people and steer them away from eating here. As it turns out the girl who helped us today couldn't count either. This poor lady in a wheel chair was loosing her patience waiting for her change. Looks like we are not the only ones getting bad service. read more

I haven't been to my neighbourhood Nando's in awhile and looks like they renovated. It's so much more open now and they have minimalist furniture. I thought I saw some people on wooden stools where others were on proper chairs around the same table. (Not sure if they were going for the eclectic look??) We came in for dinner a few days ago and it was very busy so we decided to just do a take away. The girl who took my order was very friendly and efficient. They have plenty of comfortable seating by the door for people waiting for their take-outs or tables. I received mine in about 15 minutes and the lady who gave it to me asked me what sauce I wanted (garlic peri-peri.... Yum!) and proceeded to give me a lot of my preferred packets. (Before, in this location and others, they wouldn't ask what sauces you wanted and drop in 2-4 random spicy packets.) My medium-spice chicken was a bit dry but spicy rice side was its usual goodness and, the garlic bread was a surprisingly spicy good! read more

The first thing that hit me when I walked in was the great attitude. The two employees at the front counter were actually happy! Such a great departure from the forced smiles you get in regular service interactions. I used an entertainment book coupon for a whole chicken dinner and it was absolutely amazing. The flavour was out of this world, the chicken was clearly fresh and high quality, and the Sides went perfectly with it to make a great meal. I've so often seen poorly matched pairs to create a 'meal' but this was genuinely good. Between the three of us we were able to finish the meal but only barely. You get a lot of food for your money so come hungry! I'm surprised I didn't have to wait in line to order. It was quiet in the restaurant even though it was evening time. Either this restaurant is relatively unknown or they mostly do takeout. However it means it's usually easy to find a table. Prices for sides and drinks are reasonable - they even sell beer! Although eating here does get expensive you get what you pay for. If you want fast food prices you will get fast food quality. If you're prepared to pay a little more for top notch food then check this place out. read more

Usually my go-to place whenever i work out here at the Steve Nash in this same massive plaza w/ lots of free parking. It's one of the bigger ones, about 50 seats and more, good corner location. Find the the staff service is friendlier than Van, maybe b/c they're more relaxed in the burbs lol. I usually go for the half chicken over the smaller quarter b/c a few bucks more, u get more. Includes a side dish too, so after a workout, opt for the veggies over peri fries lol. read more

WOW! amazing! How this place isn't packed daily is beyond me. The staff, the location, the amazing chicken and sides is the recipe for greatness here. Here's the break down. The chicken: moist, juicy, flavorful without being overdone with spice The sides and sauces: Lots of choices, good size potions and executed well, with different but very approachable flavors. The service: Friendly, welcoming, and very helpful(considering it was my first visit) The restaurant: Super clean, laid out well, with a modern and homey feel. Definitely going back very soon! read more

I really like how tasty they can make the chicken and the sides. It's spicy, yes, but not the same way indian, pakistani, or thai food are. Really tasty and good price. read more

Haven't been to this location for years. We were met at the door by a greeter and she gave us the menu explaining how everything worked....order at the counter , each table has a number, where the drinks were etc. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Place was bright and clean. Eyeing the table next to us that ordered a family meal which looked delicious! That's what I'm having the next time. read more

Nando's Peri-Peri - Portuguese Near Me - Coquitlam, British Columbia

Good service and friendly staff. Nando chicken is always great foodwise. The location is small but comfortable

So good I love this place you can eat out and feel Healthy about it good service good food all around yum I recommend this for sure read more

This is the worst nando's branch of the nandos chain of restaurant that I have been to. I came in and showed the lady in the till a mobile bandit steal that I had for this restaurant. I even showed her the deal then I ordered and she charged me full price. I went back to the same lady and made a complaint and she called her manager but did not do anything. She said I'll have to use it next time. Please stop subscribing to apps with deals if you don't allow your costumers to use the app. Very frustrated and I didn't enjoy my meal cuz of this. I'm not a cheap person but a deal should be a deal period. read more

I discovered that I can eat Peri Peri chicken everyday, even for breakfast. It's that good, especially with that damn garlic sauce. I really need to find a recipe for this or I'm gonna go broke. read more

Always a fan of Nando's. The Coquitlam one is pretty good. The service is good. They recently changed the sauces though and I wish they go back to what they had before. The chicken is always cooked properly and consistent. Favourite sides include cole slaw and the spiced rice! read more

I love Nandos! It's also perfect location across from Steve Nash for pre-fueling before a workout! Chicken is delicious and I don't think it takes them very long to make it. The servings are very generous and my boyfriend and I can eat a whole lemon and herb chicken easily! read more

Always ate at this place because I love the chicken and sauce. Ate dinner there tonight with my wife, son and family. The service was HORRIBLE. Gave us the wrong order for fries, spicy, when we asked for regular because it was for my 2 year old grand daughter. One of the servers did not want to take it back but told us a replacement will be served, NEVER APPEARED. I ordered another double leg and REGULAR FRIES and lo and behold SPICY FRIES were again served. When I asked the server to have it replaced, she came back annoyed and literally threw the bowl of fries on the table. I complained to her and to her manager who did not seem to care about the attitude and customer service behavior of this server. GOODBYE NANDOS!!!!! Yes your chickens are good but your employees' behavior and attitude are hard to swallow. read more

I am a fan of the grilled chicken here. Better if there was more meat on since I like to eat! Enjoyed the seasoned wedges and caffeine-free DIET vanilla root beer for my belly. read more

Oy-vey... it takes them forever to prepare food. I don't go unless my boyfriend is really feening for it..I just don't see what the hype is about. It's not really worth waiting for. read more

Good sides, great chicken. Affordable and consistent. wish they have more liquor selection

Decent chicken, I've had it before in other locations before. It was dinner time and we ordered to go. Service was decent and the lady/cashier remembered my order and sauce. The only complaint was the dessert: the NY cheesecake was small, tasted like the fridge and probably expired because it tasted bitter near the end. Yuck! read more

Talk about great service and food that is always hot and delicious, love how they tell me bout the daily specials, great variety of items on the menu ranging from salads pits wraps skewers, burgers, and the traditional piri piri chicken and now my favorite the little pastery dessert :)yummmm read more

Worst Nando ever. Last night we went there. It took us more than 40 mins to have our first dish put on the table,after that another 20 mins for the 2nd dish. The 3rd and 4th dishes came out after another 20 mins. What we ordered is just one whole chicken, garlic bread, coleslaw with large chips and chicken liver. We had to remind them constantly that we still have4/3/2/1 sides. It took us more than 2 hrs to have this meal. Food was good, but the speed and management skill? read more

This is the second chance that I have given this place. The first time I was disappointed because the quality of the food was terrible. The second time around (1 yr later ) there was definitely an improvement. The food was a lot better and the staff was alot better too. Will come back, but will be keeping a close eye.. read more

on multiple occasions the chicken has been dry and not fresh. Standard is below other nandos locations.

Hadn't been in years, ordered the whole chicken after going for the pita or sandwich and dear lord it was delicious!!!

service sucks, definitely not a dine in restaurant which is why most people take out but otherwise fine. chicken is to die for so its worth the drive wherever you are to pick up read more
