Nando’s - Hamilton, Ontario

It may be personal but I don’t like the taste of the food but my friends who came with me really liked it. The restaurant provides a clean big space which is great for family or big event gatherings. I had chicken liver and 1/4 of peri chicken on rice. I’d ... recommend you try! Read more

A low-key classy place for a date idea. Quality food, worth the money. Portions could be bigger(in my opinion) despite, excellent food. Clean place with quality service team. Had some quality chicken in a long time after looking around for so long.

Error in order due to poor communication from the staff. Upon entering we were instructed to sit down and order specifically at the register once we were ready. We would've ordered online but felt we shouldn't given that request; we should have ignored them. Clarifying that we wanted tap water ... not bottles was even difficult. After much hassle clarifying what we wanted to eat, it turns out it was still done incorrectly. Bone-in versus boneless is an important distinction and should be an easy one too. The correct items of food were still good, but it was frustrating to deal with bones in one of our entrees when that isn't what we wanted. Read more

Date of visit : Sunday, March 24th, 2024 This was our very first time visiting Nando's. We heard of their sauces because they are in grocery stores, but had never been to a restaurant. So, today since we went for a hike nearby, we decided to give Nandos a try for dinner. This ... is a restaurant where you order and pay for your meal, then they bringnit to your table. The atmosphere is very casual with a south african vibe which is a tip of the hat to the company's origin story. We ordered 2 x 1/2 chickens (1 mango lime, and one lemon &herb) We ordered 2 sides each - mac & cheese, coleslaw, sweet potatoes, and cauliflower. The chicken was perfectly cooked...a little char from the grill but moist and tender inside. The sauces were tasty. The mang lime is amazing. The sides were all fantastic. Often sides are not given the attention they should, but here, they do.  The mac & cheese is made with real cheese not cheese sauce and its topped with toasty breadcrumbs. the sweet potatoes are to die for - honey glaze, goat cheese, and pumpkin seeds - yumm. I could make that a full meal. Even lowly coleslaw was given her due. It was seasoned and had a nice pepper bite. It wasnt mushy or gloopy - just crisp and fresh. Prices are very reasonable for this type of restaurant. Ample table seating, clean restaurant, and friendly staff. The kitchen is on full display,  so you can watch them prepare the chicken. They do a brisk take out / delivery business - while we were there (less than an hour) we must have seen dozens of picks & delivery service orders go out. We will definitely be back to try some of the other menu items. Read more

I placed an order for half chicken hot spice with rice and the brussel sprouts. The brussel sprouts were my favourite!! Idk what that cream sauce was but it was delicious. The pictures don’t do it justice. The chicken was cooked really well, generous portion sizes. I wish there was a ... little sauce that came with the chicken. I ordered on an app there was no way to ask for sauce. They was barely any on the chicken. So a container of sauce would have been perfect. Would definitely recommend and will be trying it again.
