Their food and service are the best. Their Hot Chicken Sandwich is one if not the best in town, and their hummus and pita are always a must every time we order food here. Support delicious and locally owned businesses!

Quiet, very casual eatery just attached to the mall. Counter service with tons of seating. The roast chicken with hot peri peri was delicious with spicy rice and added garlic sauce on the side. Drinks limited to bottles and cans but a solid selection available. Comparable to Nandos but a bit spicier. Very good. Highly recommend if you like a little bite.

I had a fantastic first experience here this week. I was catching a movie and decided to stop in for a quick bite to eat. The owner was very sweet and helped me pick something from the menu. I loved the option of sampling their sauces too! Everything I tried was delicious. Falafel is always hit or miss with most restaurants, but the falafel here is perfect- not dry, crumbling, etc. The flavor was great and I’ll definitely be back. If you’re looking for charcuterie boards, the owner’s wife does those! Ask about her Instagram. He’s got a sign readily available with her QR code (love to see the support). I can see they’re a passionate couple with a lot of talent for food and creativity.

Peri Peri is located in Lakeline Mall in Cedar Park across from the AMC theater. Absolutely delicious! Wow! What a delightful surprise! It is actually a Portuguese inspired restaurant with a varied menu including Korean Fried Wings. The menu had something for everyone in our picky group of five. The Korean Wings came in a huge portion and fairly priced. Tossed in a not too sweet sweet and sour sauce the crunchy breading remained crunchy long after the dish reached the table. Six wings in the order and these are the biggest wings i have seen in a while. At $11.99, these were a hit. We also tried the grilled paneer skewers with bell pepper and onion- also amazingly delicious and huge portion. Everyone had something a little different and every plate was reasonably priced with a combo of Peri Peri chicken and rice with drink about $12. You can choose your sauce level of spicy and they also have a sauce sampling bar where you can try the different sauces and pick your favorite. He even offer us small dishes of each sauce to try at the table. The staff were so welcoming and the food freshly prepared and brought to the table. Must have the Korean wings, paneer skewers, and the Peri Peri rice which is absolutely addictive. This is a little out of the way but totally worth the drive. Both the bone in peri Peri chicken and the boneless breast had a taste that you just need to try. Great price for huge portions and absolutely amazing service. The restaurant is really nice and would be a great place for a large group or party.

In short, loved Peri Peri. It's a nice place to bring your family or take some friends, casual and very reasonably priced. I ordered the family meal w 2 chickens and 4 sides. It was plenty of food and unique in flavor. The chicken, dark meat and white meat, was very juicy and succulent. They give you a choice of spice level, and I chose lowest heat, but flavor level hit the spot. They give you plenty of garlic sauce and Mozambique sauce to dip your chicken into. My daughters and their friends loved the food and they ate well. Owners were very friendly and welcoming. I'm picky about cleanliness and this restaurant meets my standard. I will definitely come back the next time I'm having a craving for chicken.

Wife’s favorite spot. Clean and organized. The chicken was juicy. I like all the different sauces. New go to spot when we watch the movie. It’s kind of pricey but that’s the way it goes

This place is 100% halal, which is great, but if you're expecting a traditional Desi (Indian/Pakistani/Bangladeshi) restaurant, it's not that. The burger itself was mediocre,bland in taste but the sauces are the real highlight. They have around seven different sauce options, and you’re allowed to sample them yourself with tiny spoons, which I really appreciated. For me, the sauce completely determined whether the food was enjoyable or not. That’s a big gamble from a culinary standpoint making the dish's success fully dependent on the sauce but in this case, it worked. The seating area was spacious and comfortable, and although it's technically self-serve, they brought our order to the table with a small buzzer system, which felt thoughtful and efficient. Service was excellent even without full table service. Prices were very reasonable, especially for a large group. One thing to note: the menu didn’t have many kid-friendly options, which could be an issue for some families. Overall, not perfect but definitely worth trying at least once, especially if you love customizing flavors and U want to support a local business.

Peri Peri Love ❤️ My meal at Peri Peri Republic was deeeee-licious!! The restaurant is very squeaky clean and inviting. There are subtle touches to the decor that makes me thinThe staff greeted with smiles and were helpful in navigating the menu. The chicken breast was juicy. I chose the garlic sauce, which was flavorful, but not hot. The potato salad was sweet creamy contrast to the mayonnaise based Mozambique sauce which is smokey and spicy. The African bird's eye Chile therein packs a punch, I could feel the heat from the sauce in my gums. The rice was a well seasoned filler. If it were not so far from us, we would already be back, because the menu has plenty of choices to keep the visits fresh Thank you so much for the great meal and service.

I never expected to find such a gem in a mall! But Peri Peri Republic is a wonderful place and the service is amazing. We had the falafel with rice and grilled chicken with rice. They also have fried chicken tenders that our kids enjoyed. While everything was great, the grilled chicken is the real standout and that is what you should absolutely get. The staff brought our food to our table after we ordered at the counter, and brought us an assortment of sauces to try as well. The decor is very cute and has the vibe of an outside cafe but inside. I can't wait to go back.

Such a convenient spot to drop by and get something quick to eat, especially if you're around the mall anyways! And the workers are so friendly and efficient. I got the chicken tender bowl with corn, and it was so good! The rice itself was already so flavorful. And the corn was grilled so nicely. The chicken had a good amount of spice on it, but was a little too dry for my liking.

This place is absolutely amazing! Super conveniently located in lakeline mall so ample parking and a huge beautiful decorated space inside. Very clean and easy to order, there are SO many options and I love that you can sample all the sauces! Honestly this is just a better version of nandos, the chicken is so juicy and the portions are huge, I got a panini and they don't skimp on any of the toppings and filled it with three gigantic juicy tenders which I ended up eating with a side of rice. The panini was truly a hit I loved the cheese and the pesto combo with the chicken and onions. The service was super kind and polite and I love that we have such a fun halal option in Austin!

The food was phenomenal! I didn't believe I would taste a chunky hot N crispy burger like this one! The takeout service was very quick and fast. I took our dinner out to the pool area, where this meal was well placed listening to the kids play in the water. Ordering the same thing again and gain!

These are some of the best damn wings you can get in the Austin metro - I'll stand on that even not having tried every wing place. I have quickly grown to love PPR after nearly two years of deferring it on my list of restaurants to try, so hopefully this review convinces you not to do the same. I will happily fanboy, as I tend to do, over a restaurant that excels in a simple menu. So here we go... This place is a sleeper hit in a sleepy mall - but sleep not, fellow yelp folks, for Peri Peri Republic's *grilled* hot sauce wings (the only place I know of around here that does grilled wings) are tied for me with Cover 2's buffalo wings for the best wings I've had in the Austin metro area. Further, the quality of their chicken is great - it's consistently fresh-tasting and the meat doesn't taste like it's been ravaged by chemicals (Costco's $5 rotisserie chicken, anyone?). But seriously, there's only really high quality chicken here (iykyk). Whenever I see how much Pluckers is poppin', I think if folks knew how good the wings are here it'd be poppin' too. Plus $30 for 24 quality wings is one hell of a DEAL; it's $35 for 20 subpar wings at Pluckers! Make sure to get their Peri rice for the perfect side. Their Peri Peri hot sauce is truly one of the best hot sauces I've ever had. You've got an idea of what to expect if you've had Nando's, but ohhh it's even better than that. That wonderful blend of spicy heat from the peri-peri pepper, a touch of acidity, and salty umami flavors is deliciously addictive. Their other sauces are good but nothing shines quite like their original hot sauce. And on that note, the garlic sauce they give you on the side pairs incredibly well with their original hot sauce. In a span of a month since coming my first time, I went here 5 times. This is now one of my weekly staples. A few weeks ago, their restaurant was closed with a notice indicating a rent dispute with the mall owners, which legit made me sad. I am happy to report they are open again as of 4/27 after speaking with the owner, Ash, who has done an incredible job making consistently amazing food in a tough location. They are located right at the entrance to Lakeline Mall next to the AMC, so you don't even have to go into the mall to get to the food court. Support these folks and their wonderful food! On paper, their menu may look like nothing special, but I assure you that a few bites will quickly change that perspective, much as it did for me. Go get you some grilled wings and tell me I'm wrong, but I bet I won't be hearing nothing from y'all because you'll be too busy eating Peri Peri Republic.

The restaurant was very clean and had great seating. The woman at the counter was very helpful in choosing our food since it was our first time. She told us about all the different sauces and helped us taste a few before deciding what to order. The loaded fries were amazing!! Perfectly fried, the garlic sauce was to die for and the chicken was so tender. We will definitely be back. We are very happy we decided to take a chance on this gem of a place.

Love the peaceful side of the Lakeline Mall. There lies this gem. I was skeptical at first as how authentic Peri Peri in Austin can get. Well, I celebrated a bday of work daughter who is Muslim and Halal is the way to go. Love that the lady on the counter knows each dish by heart and able to explain the ingredients of each item. The wings were yummy with combined garlic sauce and peri sauce. We had mango lassi for drink---yummy. We had loaded chicken and half platter lemon (I'm weak on spicy!) and food's great my friend took home some because it did not disappoint! Y'all should try it! It's conveniently across from AmC theater. Plenty parking!

Decided to try out this place for the first time! The 11.99 weekday lunch plate has a lot of options-- I had the grilled tenders with rice and corn with the medium peri peri sauce. Service was really warm and friendly, even let me try out some of the sauces since I said it was my first time and directed me to the spicy rice which to me had a really good aromatic component as well as being a little spicy. I wish I'd gotten her name but she was legitimately so kind and helpful! I had takeout otherwise the actual place had a really welcoming, warm vibe that wouldn't be bad to sit and eat in. You can really taste the grill and btw? Don't skip the wings!

This place has been on my radar for a little while, so I decided to give it a try, because why not? Prior to coming here, I was familiar with the Peri-Peri flavor, but only as it relates to this flavor profile on prawns. Pil-Pil, Pili-Pili, Piri-Piri, or Peri-Peri, is Africa's most famous flavor. One of the keys to that Mozambican Peri-Peri flavor is sun baked fermented African Birdseye chilies, and as such, I was looking for this distinct flavor when I came across this place. When I arrived at the entry of the establishment, I was greeted by an employee and provided with a sample of the chicken and was advised the food was Portuguese in origin. Yes, while this may be true, it is actually a South African staple and it's the Mozambique Portuguese who introduced it into the country, so if you're visiting South Africa and want the best Peri-Peri experience it's the Portuguese restaurants to look for. Now, for the meal, I ordered the following: Chicken tender lunch combo with rice and potato salad. The chicken for this dish was grilled, and the Peri-Peri sauce I elected to use for my order had slight heat with notes of mango and garlic. There's a lot more going on than just heat. The spicy rice was flavorful and complimented the chicken entree well. Loaded Fries The fries were covered in Peri-Peri seasoning topped with shredded chicken, peri garlic, and Peri Mozambique sauce. The fries marinated their crispness while covered with Peri sauce, which was a welcomed surprise. The chicken for this dish, like the lunch combo, was grilled. Mango Pudding Shot I've never had a mango pudding shot such as this one. I was introduced to mango pudding shots in Hong Kong at Yum cha. However, these were different from what I am accustomed to. These mango shots here were light, refreshing, sweet, and topped with green and red canned fruit. *This place also serves Mojitos! I didn't try one but am jazzed to know they offer them. Total for these menu items $27.56

I love Peri-Peri and it's really hard to find in the United states. These guys are authentic and soooo delicious! Ash the owner is from Mozambique and he's almost always there. The staff that work there are awesome as well. Prices are also pretty reasonable. I always get some extra to bring home. Check them out. One little tip is they are not in the main part of the food court. They're just around the corner near the AMC movie theater. Thank me later

Was at Lakeline Mall recently and noticed a new restaurant had opened up next to AMC and we decided to check it out. Have mostly heard about Peri Peri chicken from friends overseas and wanted to see what the fuss was about as they usually rave about it. (If you're familiar with Nando's and such) The interior is super modern and cozy, with warm lighting and a nice open concept. At the counter we were greeted by a friendly fellow who introduced us to the concept and did a sauce tasting (they have a ton!) The menu is pretty big but we opted for the classic, chicken thighs with medium Peri sauce and sides. We opted for waffle fries, coleslaw and spicy rice. They had a ton of options for sides, with 4 different types of fries, vegetables and more. The Peri sauce can be described as tangy, spicy and sweet at the same time. And it complimented the chicken perfectly. The waffle fries were excellent, and we paired those with the smoky Mozambique sauce. Overall was pleasantly surprised at how good this was, and the prices were quite reasonable. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking to try this type of Peri peri style chicken out. It's bold and loved the grilled taste. Check it out.

I've been craving peri peri chicken ever since my visit to Maputo, Mozambique a few years ago. So, I was thrilled to discover a spot in Austin after Tio Pepe closed down. The ambiance upon entering was delightful--beautifully decorated with an open layout. It's hard to believe this gem is tucked away in a mall. The staff graciously allowed us to sample all the sauces, helping us determine our preferences. I've visited twice and both times opted for the Family Chicken platter, which includes a whole chicken with two sides. We tried the Spicy Peri Rice, Fries, and creamed corn--all of which were satisfying. In terms of sauces, we've tried the Peri Inferno Sauce, Peri Mild Sauce, Peri Mango Chilli, and Peri Lemon & Herb. Personally, the Mango Chili stood out as my favorite, closely followed by the mild. Inferno and Lemon & Herb were acceptable. The trick is to mix the sauces; for example, add Mozambique and hot sauces into the rice for a flavor explosion! Now, let's talk about the chicken. Although the grilled chicken tasted good, it lacked the authentic peri peri flavor, deviating from the Peri Peri I experienced in Mozambique. It seems fair to categorize it as a desi-Portuguese fusion. Nonetheless, it was tasty, and the overall food quality was impressive. . Everything is also Halal so a good spot for those with that dietery restriction. They also have a decently priced lunch deal during the weekdays. I do feel the mall location might prove to be a liability for this restaurant. I hope I am wrong! Will continue to visit and try out other items.

The service is very friendly and helpful. I ordered from the lunch menu. The food is plentiful and good. I chose the Mango sauce which is excellent. The food was cooked and seasoned to perfection. The place is not crowded and has a TV for viewing. The restaurant and bathroom is clean. The area is very spacious.

No offense to the other guys, but this is not a food court stall! It's a really amazing chicken restaurant, that is beautifully decorated, and staffed by friendly and kind folks, that just happens to be right across from the movie theatre in the mall. I knew we were in for a treat when the cashier offered us a taste test of all their sauces, and told us the story of Peri Peri. My (Haitian) son went for the mango chili and I chose the barbecue. All of them were tasty. We each got a leg/thigh and split a side of the peri rice. That was already destined to be delicious, but then the cashier brought over bottles of garlic (white) and Mozambique (brown) sauce. Instant upgrade! We both devoured our food with great delight. I can't tell you how excited I am that this is in our backyard. They also have some fun drinks and desserts. We skipped today since we'd just been going hard on soda and candy in a movie, but next time... If you like grilled chicken and would appreciate an opportunity to try a Portuguese by way of Mozambique take on it, you should come check it out. It's worth a trip to the mall, just for this!

Peri Peri chicken has been my obsession for the past few years, and unfortunately have had to travel to Houston as of late for my fix since Austin was totally devoid of options after Tio Pepe closed. The restaurant was pretty empty on a Saturday evening surprisingly, but we were able to get our food fairly quickly. I ordered the whole chicken with two sides (spicy rice and fries) to share with my brother to go. The prices are comparable to most of the top Peri Peri restaurants, and the flavor profiles of the sauces nearly the same. Starting with the star of the show, the chicken. I was a tad bit disappointed to find out when we arrived home to eat that it was completely drenched in the lemon and herb sauce we had ordered . I like the chargrilled flavor and grill marks that Peri Peri restaurants give to their chicken and the amount of sauce that drenched its skin took away from that flavor. I also wasn't the biggest fan of the texture (again, from being overwhelmed by the sauce). The sides were pretty good. The spicy rice had a good amount of flavor (but in my opinion wasn't spicy enough) . I prefer the basmati rice version this restaurant uses over what is used at Nandos. The fries were crinkle cut, so while not my favorite cut, they were seasoned fairly well albeit not crispy by the time we got home to eat. Had we sat and ate at the restaurant, there were plenty of dining tables to eat and a fairly large space available. This restaurant also has some Indian desert favorites like Gulab Jamun and Mango Lassi. We tried the latter while we waited for our order and it was delicious. Was this the best Peri Peri chicken I've had? Definitely not. I would give the Port of Peri Peri and Peri Peri Factory (both in Houston) the leg up over this both flavor wise, aesthetically as well as their diversity in sides. But having a Peri Peri spot in Austin is priceless. I will be back!

OK, so my husband and I decided to take the plunge and try this place. We really weren't sure what to expect considering it's inside the mall. But it had good reviews so we thought why not. When we got there, the seating area is actually quite nice! You walk up to the front counter and order what you would like. This was our first time, and we told the person at the register this. I am not sure if he is half owner, or just really loves his job, but he was incredibly lovely and helpful the entire time we were there. His name is Pradeep (unsure if i spelled that right) but he says he also goes by Peter. Anyway, they have a bunch of different sauces that you can choose from to put on top of your entrée. The entrée that I ordered was falafel on a bed of rice, and my husband did the same except he did grilled chicken instead. We also ordered, the paneer sticks. We had never tried any of the sauces, so Peter gave us a spoon and let us try each and everyone until we decided on the ones we liked. How very nice of him! Our entrées actually came out first, they were piping hot. But soon followed, came the paneer sticks. The paneer sticks were OK, but some of it was cold and some was warm. If they were a bit hotter, I think I would've enjoyed them a bit more. Our entrées were magnificent! I was so full, that I could not even finish my entire plate. I also ordered a mango lassi on the side, and that was so creamy and delicious. After I was done with that, I asked my husband if go get me a cup of water from the front. I'm not sure if you can just get cups of water, but Peter gave us a bottled water instead, free of charge. Peter was constantly checking up on us to see how the food came out and if we liked it. Even though this was just a walk up to the counter and order your food situation, Peter went above and beyond in terms of making sure we were happy and satisfied. When we asked for some boxes to go, Peter actually thanked us for coming in and also said he would be giving us a dessert, on the house. I forget the name but it was little round balls soaked in a juice. So good! Service, and food were all A+. We'll definitely return in the future!

Interesting spot, some things were a hit, some things were a miss. Grilled Chicken Tenders - HIT. The tenders were juicy, and covered in a mild sauce, which was tasty. Excellent flavor when mixed with the Garlic and Mozambique sauce as well. Fried Wings (Mild Sauce) - HIT. The mild sauce does it again. The wings themselves weren't anything special in terms of quality but the flavor of the mild sauce was great. Fried Wings (Lemon & Herb Sauce) - MISS. The acidity was overpowering for this sauce, and I couldn't quite put my finger on it, but something just tasted off. I'm not sure if this batch was just uneven but I did not enjoy this flavor. Cole Slaw - MISS. I was hoping for a lighter cole slaw, but this was one of the classic fast food mayo-based cole slaws. I don't mind mayo cole slaw, but it was too heavily drenched and reliant on the mayo. The chicken is good here, but I think they need some more balance. Some veggie sides or grilled veggies that can come with main dishes/entrees.

I was recently at the Lakeline Mall for whatever reason when I stumbled upon Peri Peri Republic. Peri peri chicken?? In Austin? This spot was nowhere near my radar and I'm often hesitant of mall restaurants, yet I saw a good amount of people in there eating and the food looked good, so I figured: why not? I got the quarter leg and thigh which were so tender as well as their wings which were a great size - both in which I got in their medium sauce which I would suggest because it has a subtly sweet flavor with an enjoyable level of heat to compliment that char flavor of the meat. They even have some of the crispiest fries in town that I've had in town. I know how it may sound being located at the Lakeline Mall, but don't let that turn you off because the food here was pretty satisfying! I know we have Nando's opening up in the area later this year and I have not been there, so I can't compare the two.

It's located in the mall but also has its own entrance to enter. The inside is wide and spacious so great for large group too. They let us sample all of their sauces from Mozambique, and I choose the medium sauce for my chicken leg and thigh. The chicken is like the Latin American style, so it is healthy but still tastes good. I really like the sauce on my chicken and got their potato salad too. My one critique is that i love the charred pieces, so I wish mine had more charred to it. I also ordered their chicken tenders spicy sauce with rice, and tried their lassi shot dessert. Overall the price is very affordable, food was good, and service was good.

Great service and great food! You don't normally expect much for mall food, but I would go out of my way to come here. All that said, the fusion stuff here is....electic? I see Portugese peri peri things, paneer things, falafel things? It's kinda all over the place, but the sauces are on point, so no matter what your entree of choice is, the sauce will flavor it superbly. Food has a slight kick, but not too spicy. I think the medium peri peri sauce is a good level for me but if heat isn't your thing, I would go for the lemon and herb sauce. Entree wise, I got some chicken tenders with a side of rice. The chicken is perfectly juicy and expertly grilled and the rice is plentiful. Nothing crazy special on the rice side, but just slather it with sauce and go. Definitely be back!

We came here to celebrate my friend's and my birthday. They prepared us for the wait for our food. I was a little disappointed that my wrap was smaller than expected for the price. But the food was AMAZING! The sauces are delicious, and though the servings may look small, you will not be disappointed given the flavor. Also, the service was great. The owner was so excited to have us over and sang happy birthday to us. He told us that private parties are available if we ever wanted to book. I will definitely be coming back if I'm in the area.

Very unique restaurant showcasing the cuisine of Mozambique! We got the spicy chicken burger and the fish plate with spicy rice. The ambience was surprisingly good for the mall, loved the tiled floors and murals on the wall. They have a number of sauces that you can taste before adding to your dish. Will def be back to try more things! They also have a lunch special on weekdays for $9.99.

10/10 Upon walking in we were greeted by a friendly lady, she explained the menu and let us try every single sauce they had. This was above and beyond as it helped us choose exactly what we would like as it is our first time here. We chose the peri peri medium- and the lemon and herb sauce. With a 12 piece wing combo (6 grilled and 6 fried, so we could try the variation) To my surprise, the grilled wings was OUT OF THIS WORLD. The flavor, Smokiness, was amazing and it was cooked to perfection. And the fried was just as good!! Amazing flavor, perfectly cooked, grilled just took my by surprise as i usually loved fried wings. We also paired with the spicy peri rice, which isn't too spicy but very flavorful. Recommend to anyone in the area and surrounding. This place is amazing with great indoor seating and ambiance. Quiet but in a mall, but just perfect. Recommend 100%

Nah, I'm not eating there again. It didn't seem the cleanest place but really my problem was them not providing a regular meal. I ordered through Too Good To Go and I was disappointed with the quantity, the wait for someone to recognize me, and the overall quality. The quality wasn't the worst but definitely not a place I would go back to. I see a plate listed that is just rice and a leg for $8. I spent $7 through a discount website and that's all I got- no veggies, no sides. It was supposed to be a full meal, that's how the program works. Barely any discount, not great food, no variety. Cheap manager I guess. Oh and the owner decided to reply to my review on Google saying this isn't the place to review my order and invited me to order a la cart. Haha, that whole thing is funny. And he reminded me that there is no $8 chicken and rice dish. I looked at the menu again and he is right, for $8 you get one chicken leg with very little sauce, not enough flavor, not very well cooked. So apparently I was luck to get any rice haha. The app says you 3x the value the app charges you, so it should have been something akin to a $15 plus meal but the manager is cheap- big shocker there.

Spectacular. I've been twice with different folks and we all got something different each time. Literally my mouth waters every time I think about it. The chicken is tender, the hummus is fresh, and the fries are cooked just right!

This place was amazing. The food tasted fresh and the flavors are so good. The inferno sauce is a *little* [extremely!] spicy, but that's just a preference/tolerance situation. I highly recommend this place to anyone in the area who is looking for something a little different.

This place is soooo cute. Always see it when going to the movies and finally made plans to stop in before a showing. The staff is so friendly, the doctor is so cute and the food was delicious. I had the paneer which is always a favor mine. The spicy rice was so moist and flavorful & we were given a complementary desert which of course I cant recall the name of it but it was mango with some fruit in it and the texture was silky like a custard. I loved it. Can't wait to go back and try more.

I wouldn't normally eat at a restaurant inside the mall, but wife and I heard good things about this place so we went and checked it out. Guy at the front was super nice and helpful and let us try all of their amazing sauces before committing to any. Paneer sticks appetizer was slightly cold but didn't hinder the taste whatsoever, Chicken I received was very flavorful and wife's Falafel was delicious. We also were given a complimentary dessert which was completely unexpected and thankful. I normally don't care for Mediterranean food, but this restaurant really changed my mind. Definitely would recommend going.

This was our first time at Peri Peri , have eaten a lot in Chicago, Houston so we had some expectations. Tried fried wings, grilled wings, hot crispy burger, club sandwich amd 1/2 chicken platter a side or creamy corn. Chicken was cooken well and it was still very juicy and succulent. I loved the medium sauce and Lemon herb sauce of the many available. They allowed us to.sample the sauces which was super cool. The grilled chicken and wings's out skin could have been more charred, felt the chicken skin a little soggy. Charred crispy outside would have made it the beat. Don't miss the Mango lassi and Lab e sherren (mango shots) - both were so so yummy. The ambience of the restaurant was very nice and a cozy corner. Will definitely go back for more items.

The two spinach, wraps with cheese was very good. The crinkly crispy fries are also very good . Finally, the desert is also very good the chocolate cheesecake.

Got reminded of the desi taste bud that I had when I ordered the Hit and Crispy Chicken Burger. Perfect crispiness and the sauce on the side was the perfect match. I had ordered a takeaway and the service was quick. The packaging was good too. It came in a sealed box unlike what you get in the regular styrofoam boxes.

We came here after seeing the great reviews online and have to say it more than exceeded our expectations. We came for the lunch special and ended up getting an appetizer and dessert as well. We loved everything and the service was so amazing. I recommend trying the Manganese sauce they have in the coolers. Also a good note is they are not in the food court, they have a front door and plenty of parking.

We tried the grilled chicken sandwich and chicken sandwich on ciabatta. Both were delicious. I ordered through ubereats but I'm sure the food tastes even better sitting at the restaurant. The mango chilli sauce was my favorite.

I love a peri peri place, and this restaurant in particular has a great variety of sauces. The chicken and rice were very tasty and fresh. The staff were extremely friendly. We're definitely going back.
