Nando's Peri-Peri - family platter

Nando's Peri-Peri

Had the pleasure of dining at Nando's last night for my birthday. Upon entering, we were greeted by…read moreHolloway, who was friendly. He asked if we had dined there before, to which we responded that we hadn't. He then told us to pick where we wanted to sit, and he would follow. My kiddo picked out our spot, and Holloway handed me my menu and then opened up my husband's menu and gave us an explanation of the menu. He then gave us a few suggestions for our meal as first-timers. He informed us that we could get the sauces at a counter in the back, and we were free to bring all of them to our table to try. He then let us know if we needed anything to let him know. My husband and I decided to go with Holloway's suggestion of the Family Platter. The sides we chose were Portuguese rice, red-skin mashed potatoes, and garlic bread. My husband also got an additional side of Peri Honey Sweet Potatoes. For our beverages, we got a pineapple lemonade and Rubro Peach Iced Tea. My husband ordered through the app, and our drinks got there first, and then our food was brought to us within 10ish minutes. At that point, my husband had already brought all the sauces available to our table, and we started eating. There are 8 sauces available (I should note we ordered our chicken plain-ish), so we could figure out which sauce we liked for the future. Like I mentioned, we got the chicken plain-ish for our first time. I tried it as is and it was great on its own. The meat on the inside was moist, I personally wouldn't mind eating it plain-ish. My kiddo who is picky loved his portion and was asking for seconds. So that to me was a good sign. The skewers were just as good, obviously with the skewers being dark meat, they were more moist and tender pieces of chicken. 9/10 Garlic bread was excellent; it was crunchy on the outside and nice and soft on the inside. The flavor wasn't overwhelming nor was the bread too oily or greasy. 9/10 Red-skin mashed potatoes were also a great side. The potato skin also added some nice texture. 8/10 The Portuguese rice was good, but it reminded me of Mexican rice at a Tex-Mex restaurant. It tasted like it was a tomato paste base, which isn't my favorite. 6/10. The Peri Honey Sweet Potato was savory, salty, and sweet. At first glance, I noticed a red powder sprinkled on the top, and the sweet potatoes were cut into small cubes. Of course, the seeds were sprinkled on top with the feta cheese. It had a nice texture/ crunch from the pumpkin and sesame seeds. The feta was very flavorful; it was soft and had a more acidic taste than store-bought feta. The red powder on the top added a salty and subtle spice flavor. 8/10. Peach tea was very good; the peach flavor was strong and lingered at the end. 9/10. Pineapple lemonade was great, not too sweet, very pineapple-forward taste. 9/10. Naughty Nata was like a fusion between churro and egg tart. I got the smell of cinnamon at first, and it reminded me of a churro. The crust was very flaky and buttery. The custard inside was nice. 10/10. Nando's was a very nice restaurant to dine at; it was definitely a different experience from most restaurants as you're able to choose your seating, and you are able to get your plates and sauces and whatever else you need on your own without needing to wait for your server. The vibe is very much chill and laid back. I also noticed that everyone on the shift for last night was working as a team. There was Holloway and two other people working the front ( a young lady and an older gentleman). The young lady brought us our drinks, and then the older gentleman brought us our food as Holloway was busy with other customers outside. I loved how the menus were unique, and the artists are credited. I also liked the decoration and how there were so many bright and vibrant colors on the chairs and just all around. I will be back in the future to try more of what Nando's has to offer. Sauce reviews: -favorite out of them all Medium Peri Peri with Garlic: good, mild heat, and tangy Peri peri Medium wild herb: vinegar-forward good flavor Lemon herb peri peri mild: can taste lemon but flavor doesn't linger. Saka medium: sweet comparable to BBQ sauce reminded me of a more subtle Rudy's sissy sauce Peri peri medium: lots of vinegar, not too strong spice kinda like Cholula Peri peri hot: more vinegar-based, tolerable spice, reminds me of salsa roja taqueria Peri peri extra hot: tolerable spice just a notch up from hot, lemony and herby aftertaste Extra extra hot peri: good spicy, maybe different chilies? Most bottles had little excerpts on the back, and some even said what chilies were used to make the sauce. Also I noticed all the sauces were acidic either from lemon or vinegar. Which pairs well with the chicken.

Great place. Great food quality and flavor on baked chicken peri / peri style…read more Peri-peri chicken is chicken marinated or coated in a spicy, tangy chili sauce, then usually grilled or roasted. These folks have multiple flavor profile and sides. Very clean attentive staff. Will be back!

I enjoyed my experience at the Local Spot. I've been back three times and each time, I have been…read moresatisfied. The food was tasty and presented very well. The staff was helpful and courteous. The establishment was clean and organized. It's a bonus that this restaurant is in my neighborhood and I can enjoy it on a regular basis.

Local Table was one of those places that looked more impressive than the actual experience ended up…read morebeing. We were in Fulshear and wanted to try something different that we don't have near us, so we decided to give it a shot. The restaurant itself is beautiful on the outside with an inside that has a modern, open design. You come in and seat yourself, and while there were several tables available, the restaurant definitely wasn't empty. There were people dining in the back room and out on the porch. It was a gorgeous day, but we opted for the AC. Service wasn't terrible, but it also wasn't especially attentive. It took a while for someone to come by with menus, and throughout the meal things just seemed to move slowly despite the restaurant not appearing understaffed. I don't mind a relaxed pace, but I also don't want to spend my entire afternoon sitting indoors at some random restaurant waiting around. We started with chips and queso. The chips were decent, but the queso was extremely thin and soupy--more like cheese soup than queso--thus definitely not worth the $10 price tag. Unless you love soupy queso. Then maybe it's definitely worth the $10 to you. For lunch, my brother and mom ordered The Local Burger with Fries and added avocado, my friend ordered the Beef Tenderloin Steak Wrap with Chips, and I tried the Spicy Buffalo Pizza because honestly, every menu starts looking the same after a while, and I wanted something different. Unfortunately, there were several issues with our order. Everyone's food arrived but my brother's because our server somehow assumed mom and he were sharing one burger since they ordered the same thing. They also forgot the avocado add-on for both burgers. Mom gave my brother her basket, and they shared the burger until his came, which was about 10 to 15 minutes later. Mom liked the fries because they came out hot and weren't overly salted, but neither she nor my brother really raved about the burgers. I think by then they forgot they asked for avocado, and we weren't charged for it, but that's kind of annoying to ask for something and nothing is said...they just quietly make sure not to charge you for it. The Spicy Buffalo Pizza was probably the biggest disappointment for me. I expected a more traditional buffalo chicken pizza, but instead it was kind of a layered, heavily drizzled mess that didn't really work together. The crust also appeared to be some sort of cornmeal-style crust that wasn't my favorite and didn't hold up well under the weight of the toppings. It was the kind of slice you knew would end up on you rather than in you, so I was really careful to make sure it hit the pizza board and not me. I ended up boxing most of it for my housemate. Mark wanted dessert, and they have something called "The Spot Ice Cream Sandwich," which is a brownie or assorted cookie with vanilla ice cream and toppings. Mom asked whether he could simply order the brownie by itself, and our server Victor said he would ask, but we never actually got an answer. One thing that really annoys me at restaurants is charging $4 for fountain drinks and then not keeping them refilled. Victor did eventually ask about refills, but by then the meal was basically over. Overall, this place wasn't bad, but it also wasn't great. The atmosphere and design are probably the strongest part of the experience. I wouldn't necessarily avoid it, but I also wouldn't go out of my way to come back. What made lunch even funnier is that next door at Cross Creek Ranch, there's a hanging sign advertising an "observation deck." We had debated going before lunch but decided to eat first and then check it out afterward. Much like the restaurant itself, the concept sounded far more impressive than the actual experience. There really wasn't much to observe. I just found it amusing that both experiences ended up being equally mediocre.
