Literally just wanted to add cheese on my chips for my meal and it was a huge complication for them. They were saying they needed to charge me for two portions of cheese because the cheese isn’t enough for my chips but they have another option of cheesy chips instead. What a circus. The Absolutely unreal and unheard of. Didn’t bother in the end what a joke.

A cheap version of Nando’s in both price and quality. Food and staff were ok though

We arrived at about 3pm, so a strange time in between lunch and dinner, but Frango Grill was open and very accommodating, especially as we had the entire restaurant to ourselves! The chicken was well seasoned and tender with the option of some tasty sides. They also have some good wine and friendly staff which was an added bonus. It's quite obviously a Nando's imitation but they seemed to know how to do it!

Really disappointed, underwhelming, bland and no flavour! I mean was it even flame grilled? I ordered 5 chicken strips to come in the Hot flavour, with Spicy rice, Peri salted chips and garlic bread. My daughter had 5 chicken wings medium spice, with corn and peri chips. My chicken strips were terrible (see pictures) these were definitely not fresh or flame grilled, they were chewy, wet, rubbery and so bland that I could have eaten paper or tissue and it would have been a better experience. The spicy rice was a joke, again please refer to the picture!! This was some bland yellow coloured rice with no spice and no flavour, it was worse than ready made boil in the bag rice. My daughter said it looks like the school dinner rice but after tasting it, she said it was much worse. The chips to be fair were cooked well, however what I don’t understand is the peri salt. It absolutely ruined the chips, does anyone actually taste and approve these things at Frango Grill? It has a dull lifeless flavour to it like eating a raw spice that you are meant to cook with, like seriously how can you get something so basic, so wrong?? I asked for sauces on the side and I promise you, these tasted of nothing, just a spiced broth with absolutely no flavour, again I stress who in the business taste tested and approved these, terrible. My daughter said the wings were ok though, however for nearly £40 I can think of 50 high street restaurants I’d rather go to and leave a 100% more satisfied! Now I understand why this place is empty on a Friday evening, which is usually one of the busiest times of the week for restaurants. It was depressing and there was no atmosphere or ambience at all. I doubt these guys at Frango’s actually visit the competition, because they really need to do some research in to why competitors like Nandos for example are so successful throughout the UK. I’m sorry Nandos, I will never cheat on you again! This place was Bad, actually it was VERY Bad and please don’t be fooled by the Google reviews, most of those reviews are from 5-6 years ago, when I assume they actually cared and produced better food and quality because whatever they are doing now as a business just isn’t working! Seriously disappointed and I would never be silly enough to visit again and I know I’mNot the only one - Sorry for the bad review Frango Grill, but you really need to do better. Anyway, please see pictures and you’ll understand.

Second time I have been here. Very large portions, we had to take some home in the end. Fills a hole inn your stomach however the restaurant appears to be loosely stylised on another well know chicken restaurant going by a similar name. Therefore it make it very hard not to compare the two. Feeling like a slight knock off this is not reflected in a hugely differentiated price for what appears to be, in my opinion, slightly inferior food. It is very nice to have a close local restaurant like this though, and I'm sure I will be back soon! The reward card is an additional incentive.

After ordering we spent 40 minutes waiting for our appetisers and only 1 of 5 occupied tables actually getting food in that time.The waitress came over at the 40 minute point and wanted to confirm the order. At which point I got up and confirmed with the kitchen if they are now starting our order. To which I was told the chicken takes 30 minutes and it would be with us soon, while looking over their shoulder to see our appetisers hitting the grill.I then told them don't bother I want a refund. The pepsi tasted watered down and the place was cold with people keeping their outdoor jackets on.Given a full refund.My opinion from what I've seen here for a copycat Nando's is they are more interested in online takeaway orders that footfall through the door.

Quite possibly the driest, toughest chicken ive had in a long time. But to be fair the marinade was good. It was quite quiet when we went so it had probably been sitting around a while

This was the first time I had paid a visit to this restraunt. Fancied something different as a takeaway. Their menu seems to have a more healthy selection of grilled Chicken and Steak dishes served in buns, wraps or pittas. Salads and veggie options are also available. The food is cooked to order and packed in cardboard containers rather than the foam plastic containers used by many other takeaways. The food is offered to you either plain or spicy and you can choose how hot you want the spice to be. Restraunt was clean and had a good friendly atmosphere. If you want to eat in, there are plenty of tables to sit down at. They also offer a free delivery service, if you spend more than £20 and you live less than 3 miles away. The only criticism I have, is that I found it a little pricey.

Fantastic food, some of the best chicken available. Like nando's but much better, bigger portions, better chicken and some of the friendliest staff ever! Can't rate highly enough!
