Haven't had a Nando's in 5 years since I left the UK and this was surely a lovely way to reunite my taste buds with Nando's Chicken! The Bugis junction branch has friendly staff and the environment is nice and clean. The restaurant was really busy when we got there, we waited about 15-20mins before we could get our table. We ordered a Lemon and Herb chicken wrap with potato wedges and coleslaw and 5 mango and lime wings with coleslaw and peri peri chips and a perinase on the side.

We ordered a Lemon and Herb chicken wrap with potato wedges and coleslaw and 5 mango and lime wings with coleslaw and peri peri chips and a perinase on the side. The wrap was by far one of the best I've had, the amount of sauce was just right, not too moist and not too dry. The wings were a little over cooked, but still tasted great. 

We enjoyed our meal very much here and would definitely come back when we next visit Singapore

I believe in tasting food at it's most natural form, with minimum seasoning possible. Coz then we can really taste the skills of a good chef. If we need chili for everything, then everything will merely taste the same mah. But I dun deny that some spice will help to heighten the taste of food. Most importantly, you must enjoy the food according to your preference, whether it's spicy or not.

The chicken was a tad dry, not as tender as expected. Side dishes wise, okay but as an advice, maybe it's not a brilliant idea to order 2 potato sides, reason being too filling la!

Cataplana ~ $18

This dish was like tomato rice with stir fried vegetables and chicken. The chicken here tasted better but was not given a lot, buried by all those vegetables (garlic, capsicum, carrot etc) which we dun really eat.

Overall, food was okay although there was no wow factor to really draw me back. It will be just another restaurant that I will probably patronize if I need food. So much about the hoo-ha when it just started. Oh well, I suppose I'm not easily impressed. =p

Also known in Swahili as Bird's Eye Chili, Peri Peri sauce is available with different spice levels for individual palettes. While I have the penchant for some spices to really give that kick in my food, I opted for mildly spicy just to avoid sweating bullets during a meal.

I ordered the quarter chicken meal with came with 2 side dishes of my choice - garlic bread and potato wedges. The chicken was the star of the plate, gorgeously flamed-grilled with grill lines seared beautifully onto the skin. The drumstick was also beautifully seasoned and the meat still moist and succulent.

For the sides, I would also like to give special mention to the garlic bread. The dish by itself is pretty standard, but the ones at Nando's were just better toasted in particular, crispy and really working it with the irresistible aroma of garlic.

It's the most wonderful time of the year once again.


Went there with my girlfriends for our Christmas dinner, and was seriously impressed by the effort of having a pleasant atmosphere and excellent service. The food is mainly chicken.


But whatever, it was good, well cooked, with interesting per-peri sauces you can choose from. It's Christmas so we ordered their Jumbo Platter. Served with two large whole Peri-Peri Chickens, and 5 regular sides. We picked their Potato Wedges and Mediterranean rice. Since not all my friends love spicy food like I do, we just ordered the mild sauce. I just added the spicyness with their range of Peri-Peri sauces. From Medium, to Garlic, Hot and Extra Hot Sauces.

It was a very cheerful, and fun place to dine in. Ideal for special occasion and get-togethers. I would say that this is indeed a perfect place to get delicious and mouth watering Portuguese dishes.

The star/s at nando's is/are actually the side dishes since there are so many to choose from, depending on your personal taste and preferences. For this visit, we had the garlic bread, grilled vegetables, mixed salad and mediterranean rice. All were good except for the grilled vegetables which gave a funny aftertaste. Order different side dishes so you can get to taste more of the items on the menu.

So, what makes the flavor really special? It's because of the peri-peri or the African Birds Eye Chilli which according to their website was discovered in Africa by the Portuguese. The news is, peri-peri doesn't contain any preservatives, colourants or artificial flavours.The chicken is good as it is but if you are more adventurous, you may opt for the other peri-peri sauces: hot and extra hot.

The chicken is good as it is but if you are more adventurous, you may opt for the other peri-peri sauces: hot and extra hot. I reccommend eating the peri peri chicken, as the grilled chicken is really good and you get to choose you spice level. it comes with 2 sides, which can be chosen. The wedges is a must try and the mediterranean rice is tasty. The soft drinks are bottomless, which means they are refillable, which is good especially when you try the spicy peri peri sauce. The staff in Bugis Junction mall are attentive and the service is commendable.

Overall, this place is great and i recommend it to everyone !

We are big fans of the choco rolls available at Nando's & sometimes visit Nando's only to have their Choco rolls.They are basically chilled chocolate rolls made of chocolate & biscuit & dusted with some icing sugar. 3 pieces are served in a plate. They taste more like kit kat. It is slightly over priced though. It costs about 6 $ for 3 pieces. However, its a real sweetner after a spicy & sumptous meal. I would like to recommend this dessert from Nando's to everyone. Its worth trying.

I was working half day yesterday, So hubby & I decided to meet for lunch at Nando's. We reached Nando's at around 3:30 Pm for a late lunch & were super hungry. We glanced through the menu quickly & ordered for 2 quarter chickens with 2 sides. I ordered for a medium & my hubby ordered for a hot one. For sides we ordered for a spiced rice, mediterranean rice, peri fries & 3 bean salad.

We listened to the lovely Salsa music till our food arrived. It took about 4-5 minutes for the food to come. Finally when it came We just attacked the food. I digged into a big piece of the medium chicken which was so juicy, tender & perfectly cooked. It was coated with a medium peri sauce. I then tried a bit of the spiced rice, which was a mild flavoured rice with some veggies in it, I liked it. Then I tried a bit of the mediterranean rice, this 1 was a little spicy & more flavoured with lots of herbs & spices, it was just OK. The fries were normal, but sprinkled with peri spice powder & was great. The best side was the 3 bean salad, which was great, it was a mix of 3 different kinds of beans with some salad dressing. I enjoyed the bean salad. We enjoyed our meal with a glass of coke.

Once we were done with food, we ordered for Choco rolls for dessert. We have been fans of this dessert & order it every time we go to Nando's. They are basically chilled chocolate rolls made of chocolate & biscuit & dusted with some icing sugar. 3 pieces are served in a plate. We enjoyed the chocolate treat & asked for the cheque.

We had an awesome time in Nando's & enjoyed the food, the music, the ambience. The staff were very friendly too. IT was a lovely sunny saturday afternoon.

Although the menu isn't that extensive (everything on the menu is chicken, even the burgers, and the sides are a little limited and honestly, quite forgettable), they do their chicken right.

The restaurant's air-conditioning was way too cold. The food turned tepid very quickly, especially the sides (because we were busy eating the chicken first), and we didn't finish the sides because they were just nasty when cold.

Bear in mind the restaurant doesn't accept reservations, so you'll have to eat early to avoid queuing. The weekends will find this restaurant a bustling full-house with a long queue, and while service is pleasant and generally friendly, they can be a bit harried and inconsistent (2 of our quartered chickens didn't arrive until we were finished our meal and checked in with the waiter). I suggest you do takeaways from Nando's instead.

We had:

1) Full Platter ($85) set consisting 6 quarter chickens, i.e. one and a half chicken, 4 large side dishes, 2 salads and 2 pieces of bread. Best to order the platters if you have a bunch of boys eating with you. Nando's grilled chicken is the best of the best, and the juiciness of their chickens are unparalleled anywhere on the island. I dare you to find another place that does chicken breast as moist as Nando's (but must be of the same price or less lah). We do feel that the lemon-and-herb flavour is the nicest, it's got a very light, fresh, herb-y taste that's so mouthwateringly yummy. Besides, you can always customise your preferred level of spiciness with the various bottles of peri peri sauces at your table

2) Portuguese Salad ($7.90 from ala carte menu) - a mix of rocket and mesclun leaves, romaine lettuce, tomato wedges, green and red coral, green olives. Simple and uncomplicated but the fragrant dressing has gotta be the star

3) Peri Potato Salad ($5.85 for large from ala carte menu) utilised baby potatoes with skins on, creamy but not too rich and with a hint of spiced pepper providing a lift to the creamy potatoes

4) Peri Chips ($5.85 for large from ala carte menu) - very commendable. Thick and crisp, the peri spiced powder lent a nice savoury kick. Please make sure you eat this before it turns cold, it's awful when cold

5) Mediterranean Rice ($5.85 for large from ala carte menu) - a little lacking in flavour even though it was fragrant. I wanted a little more kick, a little more zing, a little more richness

After poring through the menu, I finally decided to take the classic chicken but I was not so brave to take more spicy stuff, I chose mild chilli. We get to choose 2 sides too. The dish arrived after 15 minutes and it looks gorgeous! Yummily delicious! I saw the label… “Not so brave”… haha! It was cute! It varies according to level of spiciness. The meat of the chicken was tender and was roasted very well. I love the taste and the spice level. It was just nice for me. I chose fries and garden veges as my side dishes. The fries were sprinkled with chilli powder and were awesome to my taste buds. Overall I love the dishes here. Though service could be a little quicker. The Bugis outlet seems to be understaffed. I love the ambience as well. It was casual and good for chilling out with a couple of friends. It was not noisy despite the crowd. My friends ordered some other dishes and they turned out to be awesome too. Apparently this restaurant has quite a reputation overseas. I have heard of it long ago and am very glad they decided to set up outlets here in Singapore. I will visit more often. Hopefully they will increase their menu offerings too. I have yet to visit other outlets. Since then, I have visited the Bugis outlet twice and had the same dish twice. The experiences were awesome and I believe they will continue to excel. Not the forget the drinks. I think they are very nice too. Some sparkling soda I had, it was tasty and cooling. I give this restaurant a thumbs-up!

For my main course, I ordered my usual 1/4 chicken with extra hot peri peri sauce and 2 sides. I chose Mediterranean rice and grilled vegetables. I find the chicken alot better than before. What used to be dry and hard has become really juicy and tender. The extra hot peri peri sauce is still not hot enough. I am still wondering why the taste is so different from what I had in Melbourne but I guess they are trying to localize the taste. The Mediterranean rice is yummy and you can really taste the flavor from the first mouthful. Grilled vegetables have improved alot also. The carrots are cooked well now. ($14.90)

Wouldn't mind dropping by again if I'm around the area.

The side dishes here are very different from other restaurant and fast food outlets. Instead of serving butter fragrant rice, they uses lots of spices and curry powder to make into their unique rice. The coleslaw here taste abit more sour compare to others who actually served creamy and sweet coleslaw. The french fries here have lots of pepper dashed on it instead of salt. It is crispy but not really hot when served to me. Their serving also take quite long upon my order of foods.
