Recently re-opened under new management, this Nando's location delivers great service and high standard Nando's famous items!
Most Nando's locations have different interpretations of interior design that reflects the S. African/Portuguese influence, and this location also shares this design concept! Cheerful, individualistic & user friendly!
I particularly like the Chicken Liver here, its grilled to perfection, texture is creamy and rich, you will have a choice of Garlic toast or Portuguese Bun, perfect for soaking up the delicious sauce!
I find the chicken here are grilled perfectly as the skin are crispier then a few other locations, even thought we have a Nando's where I live, but I will prefer to come to this location just because of this reason!
Remember, you have a choice of different spicy level, I usually go for medium and ask for more spicy Peri-peri Sauce on the side, just in case you want to kick it up a few notches!
Service is very friendly and all the Covid precautions were adhered, plenty of free customer parking at this mall!
(during Covid, fountain drinks are not available, you will have a choice of bottled soft drinks)Helpful 13Thanks 0Love this 17Oh no 0 - Elaine H.Richmond, BC02Oct 15, 2022Updated review
When I got to the car I looked inside the bag and saw that the girl had given me the Peri-Peri (string) fries. I had specifically asked for fresh made wedge fries. So I took them back and she would not refund or take responsibility for messing up my order. All she would give as an explanation was that she had repeatedly asked me if i wanted peri fries, which is not true. It wasn't until after discussion that she finally explained to me that they are completely out of wedge fries. So she shrugged her shoulders and blew me off. On top of that the string fries were old, limp and over salted. Gross. Even my junk food junkie roommate wouldn't eat them.
I will never return to the Queensborough Landing location on Boyde street & it's doubtful I'll feel compelled to enter any other Nando's location.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0Oct 11, 2022Previous reviewI was in a bit of a hurry but was craving wedge fries so I went inside and asked how long it would take to cook up a fresh batch of wedge fries. A large box. They said 5 minutes so i waited. Bought a bottle of sauce. She gave me my paper bag with the fries and ketchup and napkins and everything but I was in a hurry so I just grabbed the bag and walked out the door. When I got to the car I looked inside the bag and saw that she had given me the Peri-Peri fries I guess is what they call them. On top of that the fries were old limp and over salted. Gross. I had specifically asked for fresh made wedge fries. On the menu they are called Peri wedge fries. So I took them back and she would not refund or take responsibility for messing up my order. All she would give as an explanation was a lie that she had repeatedly asked me if i wanted peri fries. It wasn't until after that that she explained to me that they are completely out of wedge fries. So she shrugged her shoulders and blew me off.
I will never be back to the Queensborough Landing location on Boyde street & doubtful any location. - Amy K.Surrey, BC1167122Jan 26, 2019
I've been to a few Nandos locations and they all pretty much have the same standard and vibe. This location is no different. We got a salad and I got the peri peri chicken burger.
My spice tolerance is embarrassingly low, but I still sprung for the medium level as I didn't want a bland burger. This restaurant isnt like most. The level of spice indicated is what you will get. Medium was perfect as I definitely felt the spice - cue my nose running, but it wasn't so overwhelming that I couldn't taste anything else. If you've got more of a indian taste for spice the hot and extra hot level will be more satisfying.
Service was really good. At the Guildford location once we got our food that was the end of us interacting with any of the staff. But here the staff regularly checked in to see how the food was and if we needed anything else. The attentive service was appreciated.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Richell D.New Westminster, BC1039Aug 4, 2021

Nando's Peri Peri

We can't get Nando's in Seattle so it's been our tradition to stop by every time we head to Whistler! The service is quick and friendly. We love the peri peri flavors and hot spice level is just perfect! We tried the new nando's the dried rub wings this time and while it was good we thought it was a bit salty.

I admit I am not a regular here, mainly because of the price. With that said, the food is pretty decent.
Parking is ample thanks to this location being part of a strip mall. Service is prompt and friendly, and there are also newspapers available.
They have different sized meals ranging from $8-11. You can either get chicken with 1 or 2 side dishes.
The chicken is among the best you can get around here. The difference? It's grilled, not fried. Oh, and the Peri Peri sauce is awesome. There are 3 types, and you can add it all over your rice, fries, or chicken. The chicken itself comes with different spiciness levels. I had the Hot (2nd level from the top) spiciness, and hot it was. They don't weaken it here. The pieces of chicken are not that physically big though, so don't expect something from the BBQ section of Superstore or Safeway. This is my biggest gripe. You can leave hungry if you're not careful.
$10 for a chicken meal is a bit on the expensive side in my books, but maybe it's because I'm used to eating (cheaper) Asian food.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Stargaryen C.Riley Park, Vancouver, BC19155110Jul 26, 2018
The service at this Nando's is amazing. Popped in here for lunch on a Thursday afternoon and the very courteous and friendly young male staffers greeted customers at the door and followed up with customers after their meal. This is unheard of!! I normally don't eat here but will now be a frequent flyer knowing that staff and management take pride in their work.

I love this Nandos. Great Chicken every time. This one is not a franchise, it's a Corporate Store, so you get a good mix of staff, unlike day a Subway, where many don't hire anyone except there own family. The staff here a courteous and always cleaning up. They have a manager on duty all the time. They have a discount of 15% for anyone who works in the landing, Casino or Transit yard, in fact many places there give a discount. Prices I find a reasonable and the difference in quality shows, unlike other Nando's, especially the Subpar Metrotown locations.

I have to agree with the other reviews here, in terms of portion and quality of food. The menu here is bigger than the Nando's we usually go to by Metrotown and we happened to be in the area so we decided to dine in.
Service was not horrible, a guy greeted us and let us know we could get seated anywhere, and then told us we can go up to order and they would give us a number like usual for someone to bring our order to our table.
The portion seemed so much smaller than what we normally get at the Metrotown one, and I don't think Metrotown is overly generous or anything.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0
