  “A well run operation. The staff were really busy but everyone handles it so well. Our host Fran was lovely. Food as good as Nandos does. Busy but didn't feel that way.”

  “Had an early dinner at the Covent Garden restaurant before a show and the service was good. Did not have to wait for a table and was served very quickly. The food was nice, hot and consistent for Nandos, however my only criticism is that the tables for 2 are VERY close together, you may as well be eating with the couple at the table next to you. The service was good in terms of we were seated quickly and brought our drinks glasses and food quickly, but as with all Nandos you are encouraged to order via the app, so minimal service is required really.”

  “honestly don’t think I could survive London without my Nando’s fix! I find myself at the Covent Garden location at least three times a week, and it truly never disappoints. First off, the vibe here is just great. It’s such a nice, lively place to sit down, whether I’m grabbing a quick bite or catching up with friends. But beyond the atmosphere, it’s the consistency that keeps me coming back. Every single time, the chicken is cooked perfectly—juicy, flavorful, and exactly how I like it. You know exactly what you’re getting, and that reliability is rare these days. What really makes this specific branch stand out, though, is the team. The servers are consistently polite, friendly, and efficient, even when it’s packed (which it usually is in such a busy part of the city!). It makes a huge difference to be greeted with a smile and to have staff who genuinely seem to care about your experience. If you’re in Covent Garden and looking for somewhere that is guaranteed to hit the spot, this is it. It’s my absolute favorite place to eat—I’m basically part of the furniture there by now! Highly recommend it to anyone craving a solid, delicious meal.”

  “10/10 Nando's is very good.. until you realize you’ve just spent 20 minutes standing in front of the sauce station trying to decide if you’re brave enough for the Extra Hot, only to chicken out and grab the Garlic PERi-PERi for the tenth time in a row. But honestly, that’s the beauty of it. It’s the ultimate, undefeated champion of reliable, casual dining. Whether you're starving after a long day of walking around central London or just need a massive plate of PERi-chips topped with extra peri-salt, it always hits the exact same satisfying spot. It’s simple, it’s fast, and it never lets you down!”

  “Great experience at Nando’s. The food was really good, but what stood out the most was the service. Nikhil was very friendly, took the time to explain the menu, and helped me choose. Made the whole visit much better.”

  “Hadn’t been to nandos in ages as I was living out of the Uk. Was suprised that a order couldnt be taken from the table, had to be made via mobile and Pay online or at a counter like a fastfood shop, but service was quick! Food was great, although burger could be a tad bigger for 18£”

  “This was my second visit to a Nando’s, and once again I wasn’t disappointed. All the dishes are chicken-based, with a slightly spicy but very tasty flavor. Service was very good, and the staff were friendly and helpful.”

  “Went to Nando’s in London for lunch today and honestly it was way better than I was expecting. I’ve had Nando’s loads of times before so I kind of thought it would be the usual, but the food actually tasted fresher than normal. I ordered peri peri grilled chicken, garlic bread, and fries, and obviously grabbed some Nando’s sauce because what’s the point of going without it? The place had that normal Nando’s vibe — a bit busy but nothing stressful. People were chatting, waiting for their food, doing their own thing. Staff were pretty chilled, not rushing around like crazy, and they got my food out in a decent amount of time. Didn’t feel like I was waiting forever, which is always a win when you’re starving. The chicken was probably the highlight. Proper juicy and cooked right, with that nice peri peri kick without being stupidly spicy. The garlic bread was warm and soft, not dry or burnt, and the fries were actually hot and crisp, not the sad cold ones you sometimes get during busy times. And yeah, the sauce just makes everything taste better — I ended up using way more of it than I planned. Overall, it was just a proper decent lunch. Simple, tasty, no drama. Would definitely go back to this Nando’s again.”
