    I stopped here for a quick lunch after shopping. It was tasty and reasonably priced for the amount of food. I got a bowl with the extra hot sauce and it was super spicy which I liked.

    Original platter (4 piece chicken) with peri peri rice, perimayo corn, and yucca fries.

    This is a decent fast casual option for Assembly row. You order the food at the counter and they will bring the food out to you. I recommend the platter as it is slightly cheaper than ordering by itself. (It comes with sides for the platters.) The original platter ($45ish) easily fed three people. It says it comes with two sides, but actually, the rice is an additional bonus side. The chicken itself is okay and the mild is actually still spicy for me. I like the garlic sauce that comes with the chicken. The perimayo corn is nothing to look at, but it is decent. I like the yucca fries as it is different from the normal french fries. Service is sufficient and prompt. There is a bathroom inside the restaurant for customer use.

    Chicken sandwich

    We stopped by Tribos Peri Peri Chicken and enjoyed our meal! The service was prompt, and the seating was suitable for our small group. Highlights - Flavorful burgers, Sandwich, Boneless Lamb rice bowl. - Prompt and friendly service. - Adequate parking available at the nearby shopping center. Areas for Improvement - Prices were a bit higher than expected.

    Quarter Chicken Dark + yuca fries

    Came for Monday lunch and other than the two outdoor table, the restaurant was very quiet. We placed the order at the counter and picked our seat. The food was brought out shortly. I got the medium spice level chicken quarter and it had just a hint of spice. I would recommend going higher in spice level if you like spicy food. The yuca fries were fried perfectly except I forgot to mention I wanted it with peri peri powder. But just dipping it in the chicken sauce was delicious too so I didn't mind after all! Would be back to try the wings or the lamb chop.

    The closest thing you'll find to Nandos in Boston! Tribos Peri Peri is tucked away in Assembly Row and easily something you can miss. My partner and I decided to check it out and were impressed. You order at the counter and can choose from the plentiful amount of indoor (or outdoor) seating available. We decided to split their "All for One" platter, which felt like not an overwhelming amount of food for 2. For our wings we chose the medium sauce and for the chicken we chose mild. Our side of choice was the peri peri fries. The char on the chicken was delicious and the sauce was super flavorful. Honestly I didn't taste much of a difference between mild and medium, but it was a good amount of flavor and spice. The fries were delicious and paired really well with the white garlic sauce offered at the table. This was very tasty and I'd definitely come back for a quick, fulfilling bite to eat if I was in the area.

    As a fan of Nandos I was excited to see a peri peri chicken establishment nearby at Assembly and Tribos does have solid peri peri chicken. I split a half chicken with wings and 2 sides with a friend and we devoured the chicken. We asked for medium which was honestly spicier than we both expected. The darker meat was the star, the breast was a bit dry, and the sauce had lots of spice and lemony flavor. We had rice and the peri mayo corn as sides and I enjoyed the rice with the chicken but would skip the peri mayo corn. The corn tasted like it was from a can and the peri mayo wasn't very flavorful. The space was fairly clean, and the staff was nice but spacey. I paid for an extra side of sauce and the employee said they would bring it to out table. 10 min later no sauce so I went up and asked for it and they said "oh we looked for you but didn't see you, sorry". Uhm, we never left, and there was 2 occupied tables in the whole space. It is a bit pricey and the service was a bit spacey and slow, but I would return when I get a craving for peri peri chicken.

    Tribos Hot Chicken Sandwich Nashville Style and peri peri fries
    Nicole R.

    Unique dining option in Assembly Row but on the pricey side for what you get. I came here with a 10% off coupon I got at Riverfest last weekend. I was told the coupon was only good for that day despite it not saying so which was disappointing. Lots of dining space both inside and outside. Menu on the screens is hard to read but they have paper menus by the register. I dined in and it took 15-20 minutes to get my food. To be fair, it was a busy Sunday afternoon with a lot of dine-in and takeout orders, but I didn't expect to wait that long for what I ordered. I ordered the Tribos hot chicken sandwich and a regular side of peri peri fries which was about $20. The chicken piece was large and the sauce was flavorful. There was a slice of American cheese on the sandwich, which struck me as odd, as well as pickles and slaw. I think it could have used a little more slaw to offset the spiciness. The fries were hot and crispy with a nice seasoning. Overall my first visit did not live up to my expectations but I would be willing to give them another try.

    This is a great new addition to Assembly Row! If you're familiar with Nando's, this is exactly that, but a lot more flavourful. The chicken is grilled to perfection, it's moist and juicy. The sauce is tangy. We got a platter which was great for two people and came with half chicken, wings, rice and an extra side of your choice. For $25.99 that was a steal! I didn't take any photos because the food was SO good, phone did not eat first. The staff is very friendly. Great for families. All their food is halal and they also have a whole waffle menu as well. The rice, although a side, was phenomenal! It tasted like pulao. Only thing, the masala tea is not to Pakistani standards, but hey, I'm pretty sure this is the only masala chai you'll get in Assembly. 10/10 will be back!

    Went to Tribos Chicken twice, and the first round felt like I entered a spice dimension I wasn't prepared for. I ordered the spicy chicken, thinking I had a superhero-level tolerance--turns out, I'm more of a spice sidekick. Second time, I played it safe with medium takeout order, and it was a flavor rollercoaster rather than a fire-breathing dragon encounter. The chicken itself is top-notch, but note to Tribos: throw in a side note or something on the menu about the chicken order including a side of rice. I found out that it comes with rice--should've saved my extra rice order for dessert. Sure, it's a tad pricey for the portion. I spent about $30 the first time (I got a side of rice because I didn't know it was included and "half-chicken") and ~ $24 the second. I like that you can order online and pick up when the order is ready. I work around the area and this is very convenient for my schedule. Overall, Tribos Peri Peri chicken satisfied my expectations. If you're into poultry pyrotechnics, just be ready to shell out a bit.

    Lamb wrap
    Sophie B.

    Got the mild spice lamb wrap. Super full of flavorful meat. The wrap was also so super soft and good. The mac and cheese bites were not bad, super crunchy and hit the spot but could be improved on. Over all a great place to grab and go Tried the rice and lettuce from the paneer rice bowl with lemon herb dressing. Didn't particularly like either but also they weren't bad

    Mimi C.

    As I was waiting for my food, I noticed a common theme in this comfortable and inviting place. People were smiling, even dads. The patrons are multicultural so it was so lovely to see how people of different backgrounds come together at Tribos to enjoy the same foods. This place is clean and is set up as casual but looks classy. It is simply amazing. They offer halal food and is a mixture of African, Portuguese, Southeast Asian flavors. The quarter leg dark meat is so juicy! They also have Gaby's Crepes and Waffles in there. A great way to end meal or even as a meal itself!

    Lamb bowl
    Kelly Z.

    Honestly this place needs more hype. This place serves one of a kind spicy peri peri chicken and other meats and I really enjoy their unique flavor profile. I got the lamb bowl in the extra hot peri peri lamb. For me, I love spicy and this was just the right level of spicy that is flavorful and not deathly. The lamb is beautifully charred and the peri peri marinade is incredibly delicious! The lamb was a bit tough in some areas and hard to knife through. Great big portions in the rice, lamb and salad. The salad was super fresh, crispy, and evenly coated in light dressing. The rice was super flavorful, I have no idea what kind of rice it is though. The star of the show was the white garlic sauce condiment that they have on the tables. The sauce was just chef's kiss I could literally drink it! I needed the sauce on every bite of my lamb! Absolutely great unique flavors that need to be appreciated and recognized more. This place do seem somewhat understaffed, the two girls working seemed to be all over the place and stressed out. They were friendly and provided good service. Lots of seating area and are cleaned immediately.

I also got the second to hottest buffalo which in my opinion isn't that hot. The only reason for the 4/5 versus a 5/5 would be the consistency.

We placed an UberEats order: a 6-piece tenders meal with fries, and while the packaging was neat and everything arrived intact, the food was just... okay. We totally get the soggy fries situation (delivery life), so we're not knocking them too hard for that. What did get me excited was the variety of flavor options, for both tenders and fries. I'm a girl who loves having choices! I tried something new: dry rub Cajun Voodoo and Garlic Hot Buffalo for the tenders. My boyfriend went with his usual double buffalo obsession: Garlic Hot and Hot Lemon Pepper. For fries, I went garlic parm, and he picked Cajun. (We're a no ranch/no blue cheese household, in case that sways your judgment.) But honestly? The flavors didn't really land. Even with all those choices, everything felt kind of underwhelming. The fries were soft (expected) but didn't wow us, and the tenders, while decent in size, were kind of lacking in boldness. We found ourselves wishing we had some dipping sauces, which is rare for us! Overall, it was a mid experience. Not terrible, not amazing. If the wing craving hits hard and nothing else is open, we might return... but we'll probably check out a few other local spots before crawling back to Wings Over.

Let's start with the "Jamaican" patties. These were not patties. They were empanada-style, lacking the flaky crust, seasoning, and depth you expect from a true Jamaican beef or chicken patty. At $5 each, that's not just disappointing--it feels misleading. Then the soul food. This is where it really fell apart. The chicken was dry, under-seasoned, and surprisingly small--more like an afterthought than a centerpiece. Soul food should be rich, flavorful, and comforting. This wasn't! The greens were another miss. No depth, no richness, and completely lacking the traditional pot liquor that gives them their signature flavor. It felt like a stripped-down version of what should be a staple dish.The only bright spot was the candied yams--they actually had flavor and were enjoyable. What's frustrating is the gap between reputation and experience. When a place has awards and hype, you expect authenticity, quality, and consistency. This didn't deliver on any of that.

I also felt like the price was very fair. A lot of times, similar entrees can cost near $30, but this was just over $20 which was super reasonable especially for the quality. The staff was very kind and friendly as well. Keep in mind that the interior is quite small, so plan ahead on whether you're going to eat inside or take it to go.

Here's how it went! Atmosphere/Appearance: It's a bit of a dive bar and there's nothing wrong with that at all. There's lots of seemingly random swag that covered the dark wooden/brick walls of the open floorplan style restaurant. There are lots of TVs and this place just gives off nice sports bar vibes! Service: Ron the bartender/owner himself was taking care of the entire restaurant so he was killing it! He still was quick, efficient, did things with a smile and still made time to chat! Food: I'm here for the wings and I was able to try out 4 flavors! There are 14 sauces to choose from, but I only had enough room for 4. Lol. First up were the Cinnamon Chipotle Dry Rub. They were a decent size, super juicy, crispy, cooked perfectly. The seasoning was a bit on the salty side and I didn't get a whole lot of cinnamon, but it was there to cut the sauce and give it a extra layer of flavor. Next up was the Honey Honey which had great sauce coverage. They gave me a bit of a grilled/caramelized feel. These had a good kick to them and the honey was blended in nicely. Next up were the Roasted Garlic & Aji! These had a more traditional flavor profile that reminded me of your favorite straight-up roasted chicken. Very class and very good. Lastly, was the hottest sauce on the menu, Chernobyl. These were a BRIGHT RED like a poison dart frog warning you not to eat it. Lol. It didn't smell too intimidating, but Ron did say it was a ghost pepper based wing. Upon tasting them, there was an immediate sensation of heat. Good, pepper-rich sweetness up front. These were very good, but not as spicy as I had predicted, which is totally okay! Value: You get 6 wings for $11.00. A little on the pricey side, but it's Boston, sort-of downtown, but it's okay! It's not bad at all and the food was totally worth it. I loved this place and I'm so happy I finally found a good wing spot here in the Cambridge area.
