Really amazing chicken. Can someone confirm if you are open again? I think you guys were closed for a bit.

I really liked this place, but I ordered a pickup order through DoorDash not knowing it was closed (DoorDash and Google didn't show it as closed either). I arrived to pick up my food, and the restaurant was closed. I haven't been able to get a refund for my order.

I loved this place !! They should have had a line out the door. BUT...there never was a line because people did not know HOW to order. My first time there confused me also and they were clueless on communicating their food options. Once I started going reg I would end up helping almost every person who came in. The workers were NEVER HELPFUL . They were not rude, but because they did not help people order they lost out on $$$$. The name of the restaurant alone, Peri Peri hurt the business because NOBODY knew what that was. I had a delivery job and I talked to many people a day and NOT ONE person who lived in area had been there or knew anything about the place. They should have done a USPS "door to door" mailing , which cost less then 1 cent per house and this would have given them a huge customer base. I have seen other places do that and its worth every penny. COVID was prob the last nail in coffin....but their lack of customer interaction is what really killed them. I havent seen the place opened for a while.

I had the 1/2 Chicken in two sauces medium ( ) and mild ( ) . The one being spicier than the other. Both were very good. The chicken was not dry and definitely had flavor. The sauces were not only spicy but flavorful. There's also an amazing garlic sauce for the chicken, which heightens the flavors. The steamed veggies and French fries come with a peri peri salt sprinkled on them which has made them my favorites. That peri peri salt really should be sold to go. I would definitely use it on more foods. Definitely a good experience, and I'll be back to try a new dish soon.

This place is seriously unreal good. If you like tons of flavor and grilled chicken, this is the spot. I’m typically a HUGE fan of local restaurants, but this place takes the trophy when it comes to grilled chicken in the region. Hands down top notch the best! Do yourself a favor and try it!

This was my first time here, and the food was amazing. There were only two people working, but the cashier was friendly and patient. I highly recommend this place as it doesn't seem to get a lot of business, but has an incredible menu.

Let’s start with price. Considering this place is a Portuguese version of Applebees… their prices are VERY HIGH.Last night i purchased 8 Lamb Chops and that alone was $40!!Worst part, the cashier (Carrie), made what i assumed was a joke about eating one of my lamb chops, then i got home and realized she wasn’t joking.My 8 lamb chops was really 7.With no explanation as of why. ($40 for 7 small lamb chops).They’re under new management, and the service is horrible. They never answer the phones, and orders take forever.

Food would be great if they stop over salting by cutting the Peri Peri seasoning with extra salt. If you believe your food to be extra salty, tell them light Peri Peri seasoning.I've heard their chicken is good but their falafel for some reason tastes like $h*t and I'm not sure how they accomplish this. I have asked for lemon sauce and they said it was reserved only for the chicken because the sauce was imported. A lot of products are imported and unless there is a shortage of the lemon sauce then it really is no different. Nonetheless, it wouldn’t have made a difference in the taste of the falafel that I threw away after two bites. (My tastebuds were confused. 2nd bite got a spit out.)No cook or server wear masks so ventilation may be poor that they cannot I guess. Some cooks do smoke outside, but I was like…do they really wash their hands after coming back in from that?

Food looked and tasted like cafeteria food. Fry's were good. Chicken was pure white, no flavor at all, and the corn was very very old and dry.Yes I am talking about your restaurant. Asked for something else but the staff refused. The sauce isn't good for me and plain is just nasty white chicken. I assumed it would be a breaded and deep fried chicken tender just like every other restaurant in this country. Sorry if you think your restaurant is good.

Hot,hot,hot...oh wait, these are mild.

This was my 1st visit. The young woman behind the counter was very patient in explaining everything! She let us taste things to help us decide what to order. Once we got the food we couldn't stop eating. We had the chicken, corn, and fried yucka. Everything was beyond delicious! We wanted to try something new and different. This place scored on both counts and then was fantastic! I will definitely be going back, and ordering on line!

I can offer nothing but glowing reviews of the food - their extra spicy grade has an immaculate burn to it that keeps working at you all the way down. What's not so commendable are their prices and quality control. I've twice ordered 1/2 chicken with pieces missing, and there are no combo options unlike Nando's.
