It's really tasty. I like it a lot. Just for not the prices you pay for it over here.

Curb Your Enthusiasm

No. Overrated.

It's tasty but too expensive for what it is.

It's overrated.
Chicken and spice.

VASTLY overrated.

The chicken is grand if overpriced. The sides like mashed potato are actually nearly worth getting just to laugh at.

Pile of crap

Go get yourself hillbillys

Sugar Free

Over rated for the price you pay. Marginally healthier than KFC comparing most menu items.

Spicy grilled chicken. Meh.

Better than KFC? Yes, I'm not sure much can be worse.

It's ridiculous why people go mad for this. Cook yourself some chicken, cover it with some sauce so that it doesn't matter what you're eating as it's just the spices you're tasting.

That's what eating in Nandos is like.

It's a bit cheeky.

It's fantastic. Spicy marinated grilled chicken. It's not deep fried and it's not coated in god knows what that KFC coating is and there's no gravy. I'm not sure how people can think it's anywhere near KFC in terms of how unhealthy it is.

I don't even think it's particularly overpriced. Compared to a McDonalds or KFC it is more expensive but it's infinitely nicer. Compared to Eddie Rocketts it's similar in price but a whole lot nicer. It's similar in price to pub grub and the like, but pub grub is very often terrible. Do I prefer Nando's to a dried out, overcooked piece of beef that's been sitting under a head lamp for the last 2 hours, with a side of vacum packed veg, watery gravy and stuffing that doesn't taste remotely like stuffing? Yes I certainly do. Nando's chicken tastes like chargrilled chicken which is lovely!

And the sides are grand. Nothing amazing, but sweetcorn, coleslaw, chips, mint peas. They're nice, I wouldn't rave about them.

It's KFC for people who can use a knife and fork.

Extremely over rated and over priced

Hi I'm your waiter but I don't actually wait. ...

Overrated and overpriced.

Sorry ted1 for the double-up.

Balmed Out

Chipper food at restaurant prices, what's not to like?

Subcomandante Marcos

It's pretty **** to be honest OP. Fast food dressed up as restaurant food. Same ****ty chicken used by the likes of supermacs and KFC but grilled instead of fried and with a pretty basic periperi marinade instead of being dredged in flour.

Give me good fried chicken over it any time. Crackbird or hillbillys are better, find a Korean place that does Korean fried chicken and you'll never think about nandos again.

razorblunt

Tis grand. Not much bang for your buck.

If you're in Cork, wanting chicken and you don't go to Hillbilly's you're doing it wrong!

I think it's a bit restrained myself, but not a bad definition...

I think it's quite nice myself, but definitely overpriced.

There's better chicken for better value out there for sure.

KFC is **** though.

[Deleted User]

Get a bag of big als spicy chicken goujons, much nicer.

Dyr

Over rated, over priced under staffed.

I've never had it in Ireland, have been in London a couple of times. It's grand. Tasty, a little overpriced but I don't feel as guilty after it as I do after a KFC/Supermac's/Burger King etc.

Nothing to write home about, I don't see what the big deal is tbh.

blue note

Where are these better cheaper places? I know of the places that are worse but cheaper like KFC, McDonald's, etc. I know of similar priced places that aren't as good like Eddie rockettes, Milano's and the like. But what places are nicer and cheaper? Or even as nice and cheaper?

I agree that nandos is very simple - it's just nicely marinated and nicely cooked chicken. But not many places just do something simple and do it well. I've often paid the same in a pub for a mediocre burger and chips or fish and chips or whatever.

Most gastro pubs, Bunsen, Pitt Bros etc are all much better and the same price. The staff even take orders and bring It to your table

There's absolutely nothing wrong with the chicken used in KFC or Supermacs. KFC is delivered fresh and coated in store every day, which is more than can be said for any of their competitors, and exactly the same as would be done in the likes of Crackbird (which is vastly overrated for what it is). I don't eat there, but can't understand why people believe any aul ****e they read about them.

It's terrible, factory farmed, hormone pumped crap chicken.

Did you just pull that 'fact' out of your arse? It's factory farmed, yes...like nearly all the chicken in the supermarkets but they use hormone-free chicken, so basically like any fresh chicken you go to Tesco or Supervalu and buy.

It's really fine dining for people who never go to proper restaurants.
