What people say

Nando's Peri-Peri, located in Oakbrook Center, Oak Brook, has received mixed reviews from newspaper critics. A review from the Daily Herald dated March 4, 2020, praised the restaurant for its "tender and flavorful" chicken dishes cooked to perfection on an open flame grill. Another review from the Chicago Tribune dated July 1, 2019, applauded Nando's Peri-Peri for its "spicy and addictive" peri-peri sauce and salads made with fresh ingredients.

However, not all reviews were positive. A review from the Naperville Sun dated January 9, 2020, criticized the restaurant's lack of attentive service and understaffed kitchen leading to slow service. Another review from the Chicago Reader dated May 30, 2019, noted that while some dishes were flavorful and well-prepared, others fell short in terms of taste and quality.

Despite these mixed reviews from critics, many customers have raved about their experiences at Nando's Peri-Peri online. On Yelp.com, one customer wrote that they "love their chicken livers" and that "every visit is a win." Another customer on Google Reviews raved about how Nando's is their "go-to spot for great food," adding that their chicken is always cooked perfectly.

Overall, while there have been some criticisms of Nando's Peri-Peri in recent newspaper reviews regarding service and consistency in quality of dishes served; many customers have had positive experiences dining there for both takeout or dine-in.
