Our first time here. We were a little overwhelmed with all the options in the vicinity but decided on Peri Peri Chicken and let me say I am SO glad we did! Upon entering the establishment we noticed it was nice and clean, spacious with plenty of seating. We were greeted by Jasmine and she was very nice and patient with us and our questions. She offered tastings of their sauces and was extremely helpful and friendly. Now the food.. AMAZING !!!! The chicken was perfectly flamed grilled with the perfect amount of charged and so moist and juicy. I got the lemon and herb and my wife got the hot and both were delicious. They also have bottles of the sauces available to bring to your table so I put the hot on my garlic and herb and it was SO bomb.. will definitely stop in when in the area again.

Decent food and price. Lots of sauces that is very good to try and the spiciness really hit the spot for me. I ordered the special for the day which had some sides.

Very good and on top was Halal. Ordered 1 complete with 2 side orders and Hummus which was bit different what u normally get at a Mediterranean resturant however tasted good with hot bread. Parking can be an issue as one can experience lot of cars on Friday / Saturday nights.

Peri Peri was merely satisfactory. I wasn't particularly fond of my meal, which consisted of lemon herb chicken and a side of fries. While the meat had a grilled flavor, it was an unusual taste that didn't appeal to me. I can't say I'll be coming back to this average chicken spot.

Mediterranean salad with 3 Chicken tenders (sauce on side)

We were in the area and needed dinner, so we stopped by this plaza knowing that there were many food options available. Seeing quite a few customers inside the Peri Peri, we decided to try. I ordered a Mediterranean salad with peri peri chicken (with lemon and herbs sauce), my husband got the chicken wrap, and we ordered a kids chicken (plain) bowl for my son. The store worker said that the chicken bowl is their most popular item. Food arrived fairly quickly, and I really liked that all the available sauces were self-serve and you can just grab whatever sauce you liked. They do put the sauce you requested on your chicken before serving it to you though. Chicken tenders were well seasoned and not overly salty. It was also juicy considering that they were tenders (easy to over cook). My favorite part was that all the chicken had a nice charcoal flavor, and the outside of chicken wasn't burnt to death. Yum! Salad was fresh and my husband loved his wrap. Their rice (in the rice bowl) was also fragrant and well seasoned with spices. We all enjoyed it very much. There's also quite a few levels of spicy sauces, including the inferno sauce, which is their spiciest level. if you are a spicy lover, this place definitely has you covered! My only complaint about this place is that the rice tasted like it was reheated and not freshly made. Considering how fast the food came out, that really isn't a surprise. Nevertheless I still enjoyed our meal a lot and would come back. I got to chat with one of the workers after dinner, and she told me that the chicken is Portuguese inspired, while the sauces were African inspired. What an interesting combination of cultures! Definitely come check out this place if you're in the area!

Recently went back to Peri Peri Factory for their Peri Peri Hot Crispy Chicken Sandwich. So good and you must have the Peri Peri Fries. Goes great with their Garlic and Hot Sauces!!!

Ordered: 1/4 Peri Peri Chicken with 2 sides Verdict: The service was quite reliable even at early dinner time. The peri peri chicken is legit as I'm used to Nandos except for the smaller portion

Quick service. The portions were really big and the e wings were huge. Inferno flavor was actually a little spicy! The rice and chicken was a bit dry but still had great flavor.

Mango Lime wings with Garlic Sauce
Nick R.

I live across the street and this was my first visit. I will be visiting again. Kids ordered 18 mild wings with sides, I ordered a four piece wings with mango lime sauce. The wings were really fantastic, more tender than most. And the sauces were fantastic. The mild was bright with hints of tart and sweet and the mango lime wings were even better. The garlic sauce was okay but tasted strongly similar to ranch. Kids really enjoyed it and I was pleased as well.

Whole chicken

Updating review based on most recent visit. Since there are no peri peri restaurants in Austin, I literally make trips down to Houston just for this. I took one star away due to consistent issues when placing orders (sides end up not being brought to our table, and last time I had to convince the cashier that we had paid for the sides we never received). Customer service is a bit lacking, but the flavor is great!

Chicken Rice Bowl with inferno sauce, Peri Peri Fries
Vicki L.

I've never had Peri Peri chicken before but after I tried the Peri Peri Factory, it quickly became one of my favorite foods. My favorite dish to get is the boneless chicken rice bowl with inferno sauce and the peri peri fries. The rice bowl portion is huge and I usually have to take my leftovers home. They have extra bottles of all the sauces that you can take to your table and I always grab a bottle of the inferno and garlic sauces to douse over my rice and chicken. The peri peri fries are so crispy and a must-try imo. If you are a spicy food lover the inferno sauce is also a must-try! It's my go-to and even though it's spicy, it is packed with flavor. My experience with the service here has consistently been great and my food always comes out quickly. This is definitely one of my fave restaurants in Houston, I just wish they had more locations!

Peri Peri Chicken Bowl  with side of  Peri Peri Fries. Should have gotten the grilled tenders, thought they only came fried.

So my coworker loves this place and I have been wanting to visit since I saw it being built (love the Peri Peri chicken I used to eat in Hawaii and I love Nando's when I travel abroad). We were the first people there on a Sunday morning (note they do not open until noon, we got there at 11:30 and had to wait) so we got extremely fresh food. The back of the house staff was courteous (they were running food), but they counter lady had kind of a blah attitude. My girlfriend and I both went with the grilled chicken breast bowl. She went with the salad as a side (note they don't really have salad dressing) and I went with the Peri Peri fries (French fries with spices/seasoning). The bowl was just rice and the chicken, decent but nothing I would crave. The fries were good. Maybe I just failed at ordering because everyone else in the restaurant had orders that looked a lot better. My biggest failure was that I did not realize they had grilled chicken tenders. My coworker said I should have gotten the crispy chicken sandwich (her go to). Will I be back? If I'm on that side of town, I will give it another try and get the crispy chicken sandwich. I am not going to make an out of the way trip though.

Ask the Community - The Peri Peri Factory

Peri peri is your chicken really Zabiha halal? I would think if it was it would be advertised somewhere in the restaurant. I have sent an inquiry to the contact us link within the site, awaiting a response anxiously.

Yes We confirm that our chicken that we serve our customers are 100% Handcut Zabiha Halal and it is posted behind the counter.

This this like Nando's?

Yes and even it has more option for sauces like mango, lemon, garlic and all of which are delicious.

Are there any vegetarian options? Didnt look like any main entree vegetarian options from the menu. Thanks!

Unfortunately, i dont think so there is a vegetarian main entree.

I ordered the halloumi sticks with chili jam and 6 lemon & herb wings. I'm a huge fan of halloumi, but their halloumi sticks were nothing to rave about. No better than grilling halloumi at home. The chili jam tasted like a sweet fruit jam. No noticeable chili pepper flavor or even spiciness. The grilled wings were OK. The wings looked undercooked based on the color of the chicken skin, but thankfully they were cooked all the way through. The lemon and herb flavor was lacking. I had to dress the wings up with the medium spice peri peri sauces and peri peri ranch to get some kick of flavor. Best thing about this place was honestly the service. Staff members were friendly, and the kitchen was very fast at prepping our order.

My first time at this location. Very impressed…read more The customer service was really great and the food is spectacular! Not only my food came out hot, but you can taste the fresh ingredients. They have a lunch special going on right now that starts at $9.99 which is really worth it. All together (including the free bread for first visit with the app) it was $14. Would definitely recommend!

They offer a daily small Happy Hour, a decent rewards loyalty program for frequent customers and their Sauces!! Which I may add are available for purchase and I might have a few flavors at home.......shout out to the Medium Garlic! They offer parking in both the front & back and a semi shaded small side patio. A few small changes that I have noticed since their opening: they no longer offer lunch portions/specials and sadly the Rainbow Bowls no longer come with turmeric cauliflower Oddly, as many times that I have visited, I am either the only one there or at most, 1 of 3 people max. Hopefully it's just the early afternoon time of day I always seem to stop in because I would really like this place to stick around. And as much as I enjoy a good rewards program, their scanner has never worked once since initially joining so I have to manually input my receipt barcode into the app. Not a big deal but I haven't redeemed any rewards yet either so hopefully that will be a smooth process. And if I may end on a suggestion, Please lower the music by 2 levels. I have to put my noise canceling AirPods in every time because it's just a tad too loud and distracting to hold a convo. Other than that, Welcome to the 'Strose Nando's!

It had so much flavor in it mmmm! My husband loved his goat meat he didn't leave behind a single thing, cleaned the whole plate...at his fufu and then some of mine. Service/ambiance: They are the sweetest people you'll ever meet. It was obvious we didn't know anything about the menu and several people approached us to help us get something they think we would like. Didn't even feel like we were eating out but instead eating at a friend's or family's house. We went a bit late so I think people were getting off work and it was clear that this place feels like home for everyone because they were coming just to hang out and eat. Such a lovely place and the best fufu I tried (after eating it I tried it at another few spots just for the comparison - no one could compare).

Oooooooh sweet mother of pearl! I stumbled on a gem today! Afrikiko is on fire (though the door was…read moreopen so it was kinda chilly)!!!! From the minute I walked in, I knew that the odds would most likely be in my favor. First of all there are two huge portraits of the female proprietess and her husband flanking the cash register, in full Asante regalia. Which totally made me feel like I was in someone's living room looking at their mantle, versus at a restaurant. But it added a touch of culture and a huge sense of pride. There was a older man waiting for food, staring at the big screen tv, DANCING to the music. This is a great sign! Do you know how good this food is about to be, because I do, if it makes Papa DANCE!!! Oh yeah, I was getting excited. There was a fridge stocked FULL TO THE BRIM and spilling over onto the floor of every soda, both American and African, plus several types of beer. To me this read as "yup, you gone be thirsty after this FIYAHHHHHH"! And they weren't wrong! My food came out piping hot, relatively quickly, and paired with warm water for hand washing! Not every African restaurant is this traditional, so I again, knew it was about to go down!!!!! I would get into a lengthy description of the groundnut soup but that would waste more of your time reading, instead of driving, STRAIGHT TO Afrikiko!!! I will say that the side of spinach that I requested was so smooth and tomatoey and robust with flavor, that I was thoroughly surprised. I was expecting just a side of sautéed spinach, maybe a bit of onion or garlic, but that damn spinach was soooooo good I almost licked the bowl. If I could give 10 stars I would! This place will make me drive from Dallas yall! And you should too! Worth every single penny I spent! Thanks Afrikiko!
