Came back and it was even better dining in!! What a great concept, you order yourself so for the impatient person it’s amazing, plus it avoids splitting tabs when with larger groups. Chicken, sprouts mashed potatoes to die for! Ate fries too yummy
July 2025
Stopped by Nando’s for lunch and had a good time. Our table was on the outside balcony overlooking Michigan Avenue, and it really was one of the best spots to dine; the view was spectacular. I tried the Chicken Burger and it also tasted amazing. This restaurant is do-it-yourself in terms of service, but I didn’t mind that too much. The food and seating are all that’s needed, and they were worthy of five stars.

Idk I wasn’t impressed. I just don’t like paying for something and then feeling like I’m forcing you or that you’re doing me a favor. The “service” (if you can even call it that) here was subpar. The food? Barely there.. I honestly don’t get the hype. I tried the one at the mall in Dubai as well, and was equally not impressed. The whole diy thing.. not my thing.
