I ordered a side of papaya salad with shrimp. I ordered my delivery through doordash. Wow is all I can say :) The sandwich was still warm and freshly made when I received it. The mushroom substitute for meat was extremely delicious. The bread had the right amount of crunch. Papaya salad was refreshing and not overwhelmingly sweet. Would order again!

Maybe it was in the back of the store, some secret hiddenway? Nope. We turned the corner to the back side. Lo and behold, Kebabtown. Seating was decent, a few tables and chairs. Can't fit more than 3 small groups. Food and portion was mediocre for the price...lamb shawarma and mixed shawarma wrap. The food was served to us cut in half without us asking so that was nice. Meat didn't taste like off the spinner. As I suspected...no spinner in the restaurant. Fine hidden spot for late night dinner I suppose.

I usually get delivery, and the food always arrives well-packed, hot, and delicious. Their wings are amazing, and I especially love the chicken bites--they're so flavorful! My favorite combo is the chicken bites with salad and rice. The salad dressing is so good! My husband and son love the wings too, but we've also tried the steak bites, wraps, smash burgers, lamb chops, impossible burgers--you name it. We've sampled a lot, and everything has been great. I've walked by the restaurant and it looks like it's a bit small inside, but that hasn't mattered since delivery has always been super reliable. But it's like it's clean and nice inside. Frangos is a real gem in the neighborhood. I honestly can't remember ever getting a bad meal from them--and I order often!

Frangos Peri Peri is a mini Portuguese chain specializing in said African-Portuguese dish. The most…read morewell known chain for this spot is Nando's with a few in DC but there's none of them here. There's a a couple of these spots with the original one being in Middle Village (in queens) but there's also a few other locations as well. I went here with one of my less common groups to sample some of the tasty food here. The head was ordering for us as he had a mild/moderate spice tolerance so we stuck with the less heat focused options but it was still tasty. The service was alright being pretty friendly but not with the best English. I presume the guy spoke Portuguese or something similar. The drink selection has a good soda fountain with more unique options than most. We started with the hummus listed as hummus with a drizzle of peri peri sauce and served with nachos or pita bread. We got it with pita and it was fine. The hummus had a fun spice kick from the peri peri but had some of the creaminess you'd associate with a hummus. I presume they don't make in house but the peri peri was a nice touch. We got two of the Whole Grilled Chickens, Lamb Chops, and the Beef Bites as the main. The former was with a mix of mild and the garlic and herb. The chicken was pretty sauce and quite tasty. A bit of heat but not much as expected but they did have some sauces on the table which helped kicked it up a bit. The lamb chops we got with mango and lime. You couldn't taste the lamb much from the sweet sauce but it was tender and tasty. Pretty solid but tiny chops for the price. If you're looking for something more substantial based on price, the beef bites with flame grilled bite size beef served with rice & salad or fries was probably the most filling. We got the lemon & herb for the beef and the beef could have been a bit more tender but it still had a tasty sauce. For sides, the Grilled Cauliflower was probably the best of the group also having some peri peri on it. The Seasoned Fries were also very tasty with a tiny kick. The Coleslaw was luckily not that watery but lacked a bit of flavor and the Spicy Rice wasn't that spiced and the salad was standard with a creamy dressing. It's hard to rate this spot. The chicken was solid and the food overall was pretty tasty but I find the prices a tad high for just about everything with especially the sides being overpriced for the sizes. Still solid though and I can see why it's liked by a lot of people. Mid 3?

We ordered the Vietnamese iced coffee, spring rolls, curry chicken rice noodles, and beef stew egg noodles. The spring rolls were crispy and the meat was flavorful. The curry rice noodles was the perfect amount of curry soup. My only negative comment on the dish was that the rice noodles were a bit too broken apart. The beef stew egg noodles came with a nice rich broth. Everything came quickly and my water was refilled numerous times without asking. I was skeptical at first but I would return.

I chose chicken basil stirfry, tom yum soup and Thai coffee. The stirfry was watery instead of having a stirfry consistency. Flavor was OK but the soggy texture brought it down. Not that many vegetables. The chicken was sliced very thin and it was too chewy. Tom yum had very few mushrooms. To sum it up, this is uninspired Thai food that delivers the bare minimum. The service was OK, but they tried to take my food before I was finished. They do make an effort for the ambience with Thai movie posters.
