    Fries with Veggie Burger and portugese rice
    Carlos M.

    Overall great service, and tasty menu! Had the veggie burger which was pretty good. Love their sauces too. Not too crowded either for a weekend night. Good ambiance!

    Lemon herb 1/4 chicken and "chips"
    Michelle G.

    Got a free 1/4 chicken and "chips" in exchange for nonperishable foods in honor of Mandala Day to celebrate South African heritage AND a "naughty nata" bday dessert to-go I'll enjoy at my 4-hour class tonight after a long day of work! Staff was super friendly and attentive, food was fresh (love the sauces), restaurant was clean and well-stocked, and all I did was leave a tip! More restaurants should give back like this, will definitely be back to this location!

    Front entrance

    AMAZING!! Highly recommend. Dine in or take away. Draft beer along with a great menu. Limited menu, but that means they make it each item fresh and delicious! The PERi PERi Chicken Bowl is amazing!! The decor and ambiance is lively and tasteful. The staff very and helpful as this was my first time. All good things, I'll be back!!

    The food was really good and came out quickly. I will be visiting again. The lemonade is also delicious. I had wings,mashed potatoes, corn, garlic bread.

    Great meal here, love their chicken, either chicken breast or Nandoca's Choice (large moist slab of chicken, topped with coleslaw on a garlic bun. Sides were real good, either mashed potatoes or fries. Love the different flavors of dipping sauce. Can't wait to return.

    Delish! Upon entering, the woman at the front greeted us and let us know what to do - Order at the front, they bring your food to you, and once you finish leave everything on the table and they will clean up. Utensils and sauces are on the back wall. All her recommendations were spot on so much so that we came back later that evening to get fries, mac and cheese and a spicy salad.

    Spicy kale Caesar with chicken thighs and a side of some fancy peas
    Dani A.

    First time eating Nando's, I expected just a roast chicken place like any one of the many local Peruvian chicken joints but it was much more refined. Walking in, they ask if you want to be seated or do a takeaway order. We were seated by the window and began to admire the decor. The restaurant actually looked beautiful and there was some nice background music. We ordered using the QR code, though they gave us the option of walking up to the counter to place our order. The food came fairly quickly, I ordered the spicy kale caesar with chicken thighs seasoned hot, and a side of avocado and those fancy seasoned peas. My wife got one of the bowls and she was pleased. I sampled her rice, I wasn't very impressed because it though it was seasoned, it tasted overcooked and bland. The wait staff was attentive if not distracted. They dropped off our food and didn't bring our drinks or my side of avocado. After asking for those items and waiting 5 minutes, I got up to find him. As soon as he saw me, he snapped his fingers remembering that we were waiting and brought them right over. We'd forgotten to try their sauces and after noticing a family pouring out many little cups of sauce for their takeout order, I grabbed a sampling of each. The family and I chatted for a minute and they suggested we try to the extra hot sauce. After sampling them all, I'd agree that the extra hot is best. It's not very spicy and offers a nice flavor.

    Food is great. Service is friendly (rare for Alexandria). It's a fast casual place and hits the mark.

    Tiniest piece of chicken.... Crunch salad.
    Doug P.

    Ordered a crunch salad with no croutons. They gave the SMALLEST piece of chicken. What a joke. And they added croutons. Laughable.

    Half chicken and side of cauliflower
    Brent S.

    Excellent customer service, delicious food, best dipping sauces in the game. I wanted to try everything on the menu, but I refrained! The half chicken was very moist and had a perfect char. Side of golden cauliflower was super interesting and did not disappoint. I will be back no doubt. Thanks Nando and staff!!

    Stopped by Swahili Village with a group of five after taking a pottery class at Moonlight Studios…read morenearby and it turned out to be the perfect way to end the evening. It's only about a five minute drive away, so the location worked out great. This was everyone's first time trying Kenyan food and we were all blown away. The flavors were rich, comforting, and beautifully balanced. We ordered several appetizers to share and then entrees including the salmon, oxtail, goat, and snapper. Everything at the table was delicious. Our server Diamond was wonderful. She was warm, helpful, and really guided us through the menu since we were new to the cuisine. Her service made the experience even better. Such a great introduction to Kenyan food and a really fun group dinner. We will absolutely be coming back.

Started with a Margarita cocktail which was $16.00 and terrible. Low grade tequila and store bought margarita sour mix. Service was very slow and one of the mangers was drinking and having a long conversation with the bartender. We decided to try the Jollof Rice and Suya bites. The rice was very bland. The Suya had some flavor but seemed to be missing something. I decided to take the leftovers home but unfortunately the Suya bites got very hard overnight so were not enjoyable the next day. Since eating out is pricey you may want to choose a different restaurant to try.

Service is swift and personable, with well-informed staff to suggest items that surprise and delight you. We started with the Daddy Bofa drink. Strong and not for the faint of heart. Definitely worth it. Had a Mocktail Sobolo (Zobo). If you're of Caribbean descent, think Sorrel. The Kelewele is good for now and later. The spiced coating on the Plantains and lightly spiced peanuts do not overtake the sweet kiss of the fried Plantains, although, some will be more Tostones-flavored and textured. They are also good with the sauces that come with the Chofi. Chofi's fried turkey tails. Similar to Chicharron de Pollo but smaller and a tad fattier. Comes with three (3) sauces with different spice levels. Come with sweatpants or other LOOSE fits, make 'em fancy though because it's a sexy place. The Waakye gives three (3) large succulent Oxtail smothered in Gari. The Rice & Peas (Red Red) (Red Black Eyed Peas) and a Jollof-styled Rice (without the spice), which was good. The Red Red are DELISH. We're a legume family. The Elmina Spicy Chicken is really for two (2), A LOT! Stewed in a savory but spicy red pepper sauce. DIVINE. We added a side of Jollof, which honestly, it should automatically come with, considering the price. FANTASTIC dishes together! After all of that, no room for dessert, although we were gonna get the Malva cake. It does come with ice cream and we simply had no room. We took everything for leftovers because it's that much food. Amapiano usually plays overhead, giving a Motherland vibe. Once in a while, you'll hear GoGo beats to remind you that you're Stateside in The District. Overall, an immediate return!

Very delicious. We also ordered every kabob on the menu (shrimp, scallop, chicken and lamb). The shrimp and chicken kabobs were excellent - charred to perfection and bursting with flavor.
