Welcome to Nando's Coquitlam, home of the legendary South African flame-grilled PERi-PERi chicken restaurants. Whether you're dining in, grabbing takeout, or prefer delivery, our restaurant is the best place to eat in Coquitlam for spicy flame-grilled chicken, flavorful sandwiches, refreshing salads and more. Always fresh, never frozen, our chicken is marinated in PERi-PERi chili peppers for 24-hours, and flame-grilled to order in the heat level of your choice. Nando's originated in South Africa in 1987 and has grown to include locations across the globe, including our Nando's Coquitlam restaurant in Coquitlam. The vibrant ambience in our restaurant is great for last-minute dinner ideas. Don't forget to check out our lunch specials.
I love Nando’s food. One thing I know from experience is that you should eat-in, don’t ever take out. Straight from the fire or the fryer is so much more delicious. They could play some music and adjust the lights a bit to improve the ambiance. I would also suggest to offer free mayo to dip the fries.
Nandos supplied food for our block party. Food was great, and great quality. Well prepared and still hot/warm after pickup. Fed 25 peple no problem. I like the small details : provided plates, utensils, napkins, and sauces. Thank you for supplying food for our block party. Will use again for our next block party. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Firstly do not be fooled by the images of the colorful bowls on Uber. You will receive barely a half chicken breast, for $21. Secondly, I paid $20 two chicken thigh skewer that was dark and tasted like it had been sitting in the warmer for a day or two!
Workers behind counter were kind. Walking in was a nice experience. Paying almost $20 for such a small portion was disappointing. Food tasted good, but because of the cost vs portion wouldn’t go back.
This was my first time ever at Nando’s and I will definitely be back. In a world of fast “food” chains it’s nice to find a chain that actually has some quality. I got the rainbow bowl which had a little bit of everything, the different tastes & textures came together really well. My boyfriend got 5pc wings which were smaller than he remembers & chicken livers which paired well with the garlic bread. The side of sweet potatoes with honey & feta was bomb, and the coleslaw paired well with the spiciness of the meal. The tarts for dessert were delish and not too heavy. We left feeling full & satisfied which overall justified the $60 price tag in a world where everything seems to be increasingly overpriced.
Amazing grilled chicken, great for a quick lunch. The chicken was served within 5 minutes of ordering and was piping hot. Very flavourful as well. Even the chicken breast portion was well-seasoned, tender, and not dry at all. The fries had a good amount of crunch and paired fantastically with coleslaw and chicken. A great fast meal for me with little hassle.
Lemon & Herb 1/2 Chicken: Great quality chicken. It’s flavourful and well-marinated. Good coleslaw salad. Nando’s Kisses: a nice, sweet dessert. It’s chocolate ice cream with whipped cream on the top. Service: the manager and the servers are all kind and welcoming. Thank you for serving me, Nando’s Peri-Peri!
The food is very good and many of the staff are polite, efficient, and friendly. If anything, some are too eager as they start asking what would you like to order when your only halfway through the entrance door. Overall, its kept clean. The pop machine is awesome given the choices available. For lunch, I've found hit and miss in terms of wait time for the food. Sometimes it's slow and sometimes its fast. Parking, at times, can be a nightmare given all the other stores around it. But in general, it's good and worth the price.
delicious food SO well seasoned and the peri peri sauce is chefs kiss. we got two plates of wings, mac and cheese and rice for $52. very worth it. most underrated place i know!
What i want for salad they said don t have
The food here is great, but unfortunately both the quality and quantity are very inconsistent depending on who s working.
One of our favourite locations. Always great service and food comes out perfect every time
This location is terrible! Terrible customer service and the portion sizes are tiny
Freeeezing cold in the restaurant - sat down for a few minutes before leaving.
Great place to go for a quick bite. Beats any KFC meal by a long shot!
Had a double leg and coleslaw. Hot, spicy, yummy in my tummy. Parking: Lots of parking can t miss a spot Food : 5/5 |
We was there today every thing was awful , inside was so cold customer service so weak and then food is not like before Not recommend to anybody
Very welcoming and professional people working here. Had a good experience with them. Many Thanks Christy
Ordered Mango & Lime Chicken and it was disgusting. The chicken was grey in colour and inedible!
The people at this Nando s are so warm and wonderful. And after we ordered they reminded us that kids eat for free on Mondays and Wednesdays (dine in only). So they after that promo too- such good food and value!
Tani is awesome, great service,
Nandos in Coquitlam never seem to disappoint. Meal was fantastic and tasty.

Best grilled chicken Ive tasted in Canada.
Friendly staff, excellent food, and very clean restaurant.
The guy at counter was super friendly and helpful
Food was good. The speed of service and restaurant cleanliness is far behind other Nandos locations I have been to. Not sure if its lack of staff or mismanagement. The lady who seemed to be the team lead was nice and quick though.
We had a lovely experience at the restaurant. The food was great and the service was amazing. Ohemaa gave us exceptional service. Our kids loved her.
Kid-friendliness: Offer something for kids while eating at the restaurant Food
Food is exceptionally delicious. Service is excellent especially Vikram is so friendly. Parking is easy. Kids friendly too.
The food is FANTASTIC and great staff and atmosphere!!
Staff are always so friendly and food is always excellent.
This is an amazing chicken place! Praful & his staff are knowledgeable, polite, courteous, so helpful and the food was delicious! My husband really enjoyed the peri peri hot & fresh chicken. I had one of the bowls (Rainbow Chicken) along with the brussel sprouts which were amazing. I also liked the fact that theres a sink there to wash up afterwards as the chicken gets messy!! Our order was hot and everything was freshly prepared. We didnt have to wait too long. Definitely will head there again! Vegetarian options: The Peri Rainbow bowl and Peri Veg bowl were delicious! Brussel sprouts awesome! Dietary restrictions: The staff will custom make your order... just ask! Parking: Lots of parking stalls. Kid-friendliness: Room for kids. A good family place. Wheelchair accessibility: Lots of room. Easy access.
The mashed potato side dish was like 3 spoonfuls but tasty. Brussel sprouts were burnt to black and not cooked well. Wrap was ok. For over $20 not great.
They got a booth on Canada day! Great setup!
Good

Its the bus!
Awesome food and staff!
Always a great place to grab some nandos. Tasty and lots of room for families.
Ordered through Doordash, I ordered a Braai BBQ chicken bowl and somehow it can without any chicken. Spoke to someone named Kristie there and she assured quite rudely that it was there when they packed it so somehow the chicken disappeared while the package was sealed. Very disappointing Nando s.
Disappointment, over priced, not worth anyones time
We ordered Jumbo Platter just now, May 25, 2024 for our dinner but unfortunately the mashed potatoes are watery!! It is like soup I was trying to call them but they cannot be contacted! WHAT A WASTE!!!!
We came at Coquitlam Nandos for the first time. The staff here is so nice. We had 3 dishes for lunch. They even offered us a free dessert on house. That s so nice of them. Great work team Nandos.
I went today to have my lunch. I felt the best services and ambience of nandoo s. The staff was very polite and the manager of the store is very gentle. Food is very delicious and restaurant is very clean. I would recommend my friends and family members to visit once in a month to have a gala time.
Chicken was good but super disappointing side portions! You could fit both sides in one box, I don t remember them being this small
These nice people helped my mom find a great seat and table for Mothers day! The food was fast and fantastic and the staff were very accommodating and friendly. Well be coming back!
Cool site
Best in the town
I have been to so many Nando s but this place is totally the best out of all. What a great staff and food. The service is way too fast and the guy in the front Vikram is so nice and professional. Will definitely be back soon.
Ordered through the app, and the food was ready upon my arrival at the scheduled pick-up time. The taste was excellent, and the portion size was generous.
Good food
Good food and great service.
Good food and good atmosphere.
Not sure if management has changed but the service has gone downhill. Used to love this location but last 3 times there is always issues or my order gets extending and then cancelled after waiting 50mins. Tried giving them the benefit of the doubt but seems like it can t redeem itself.
Food was okay and the taste of chicken was good but the portion was too small for the price. It felt like they were confused of how to handle customers. Washroom was dirty. I do not recommend.
This location of Nandos goes above and beyond to provide amazing customer service whether you dine in or pick up take out. Never disappointed by the food or team here :)
I went on Wednesday with my kid. Kids eat free with a meal ordered more than $10. I ordered a lunch special $12. It comes with a chicken leg, a side and a drink. My son got a kids meal which is macaroni with a side and a drink. We both like our food. Service is great! Staffs are very friendly.
Tasty and Freshly prepared food. Nice variety of sauce selection. Clean and cozy interior. Staff were friendly and professional.
Great location. This time, the bread was stale on the chicken sandwich, and my Mac and cheese was cold. They did get me a new one that was nice and hot. Chicken was killer as usual
I had half chicken. The chicken is juicy and delicious, and the garlic bread is also great.
Some pretty good chicken here, especially if you like different kinds of spicy. It was pretty expensive for what you get.
I tried this location back in July. Food was pretty good. Hand wash station was great and the restaurant was tidy. My only complaint was the small portion. I had 1/4 leg with 2 sides for $14.49 and sides were smaller than I thought. I didn t feel full. I think I ll only go to Metrotown one since the portion is bigger. Service was fast.
Perfect place to go with families or friends,good service
Friendly customer service and delicious Chicken.
Poor service and quality.
Food was hot, chicken and fries perfect. Coleslaw and garlic bread good also. Our food was given to the wrong table but luckily it was one over and we caught it. Only other issue was it was super hot inside the place to dine in, even with just a t-shirt before even eating. Food
Fantastic food! Best take out by far.
Great experience at the Coquitlam Nandos! Joseph looked after us and was able to help answer my questions as Im on a strict diet at the moment. Great location. Thank you Joseph
Good, tasty chicken, not dry
I had the extra hot Nandos ½ chicken. The chicken was well cooked. The beer was not that great would recommend you to not have beer here. If youre looking out for spice then Nandos is the place. The option of hot sauces are the best. It is self-ordering but server at the table. Over all for a chicken love whos looking out for spicy food. Nandos is the place.
Small portion of chicken otherwise really good food.
I went there for dinner with family, restaurant washroom is not clean, service is not great you have to get everything done by yourself from napkins,forks, no straws for my kids. Our table took long time to get cleaned up. My custard tart came burnt. And funny thing is you must leave tips when you pay.
Yummy Custard Tarts!
We were at Nandos today large group Food came fast and was very good The staff was exceptional paid lot of attention to our needs The management is really good and organized.
Healthy and delicious food
Amazing food and service as well. Love the drinks selection as I found it unique. Good stuff! Good value for money for sharing platters. Food
Reading in this time. As excellent and accurate as always! On top of our regular family platter plus ... We tried the hummus. Great, and the pita and drizzle coming with it were excellent too! Food
Delicious food, fantastic attentive service
Nando s in Coquitlam is the best!!! The staff were very friendly and welcoming. Even after served the dishes, they didn t forget to check if we need anything else and making sure we are enjoying the meal.
Great food!
You can t go wrong with nandos. It s just the best place to have chicken. I can eat this all day everyday!
Fast service
Hey, maybe if you want me to eat here place your pin on the map properly? Im sitting at Red Robins and ordering because I couldnt find you when I drove by. Thought you closed because your pin is on planet fitness.
The chicken is always so good, and the pop tower is God-like.
Nice flavor and barbecue sauce..
Small portions. A bit expensive as compared to other fast food chains like Fatburger, Red Robin etc.. Wings were good though! Food
Canada day they gave some free coupon to use lining up for hours to get one , went to their store not even allowed to use says the manager what a scam.
Me, my wife and my mom went here around 5pm to order 1/2 Chicken Hot for my mom, 1/4 chicken lemon and herb for my wife and 1/4 chicken mango and lime. After 1 hour my stomach is already upset and I started throwing up 6 times already.
They gave people coupons for BOGO and it has no conditions on the coupon. When I visited there, they said that its only for 1/4 chicken. It looks like a scam
I made a visit to this restaurant to participate the Mandela day. We were greeted by the manager (assumed manager). We made our donations of school supplies in exchange for a free quarter chicken per person and of course , purchased additional food. I gave this store a single star because the chicken they served us were not chargrilled and no gril markings at all ! We were really disappointed! The management anticipated how busy they were going to be during the event of Mandela day but compromised the quality of the food ! Whats the point of going to nandos if the chicken are not chargrilled?! I will never comeback to this restaurant unless their food quality standard is consistent with the other restaurants I visited.
Chicken sandwich was pretty meh. Much longer wait (even though not many people in the restaurant) and more expensive than Popeyes
Nandos is abundant but this is my favorite place, hands down. First place I been to Nandos was here and Im glad it was due to the service ive been receiving for the past 6 months. The manager here is the best too and Ill explain in a bit. Where Im from, we dont have Nandos so I wanted to give it a try. Since this was near my work, it was the best place I could swing by for dinner pick-ups. I HIGHLY recommend this location. Since my first time, Ive been placing orders online with requests like May I please get x amount of medium sauces? and they get the amount correct every-time. As opposed to the Burnaby location, where I order a whole chicken with 2 sides and I ask for a alot of sauces and they gave me 4.. its still like this so I dont go there despite living much closer to there. The reason Im giving 5-stars is because of the managers ability to solve problems. Ive been in this industry and her management style was so on-point. An uber/doordash whatever person literally took my order from the Pick-up Spot and didnt even check the name on it. I got there and everyone was confused because the workers put my order together with exactly 4 sauces that I asked for so she remembered it. It was no longer there and some poor sap got my order instead of theirs. The manager prioritized my order and I got my correct order in 10 minutes (I hope she didnt get in trouble cause of that unaware delivery driver to be honest). Ill continue to come to this spot despite the Burnaby location being closer to me. The reasoning is that the Coquitlam location does not burn your chicken. When I was buying food for my youth group, I said Nandos is great! Because the order was packed by stickers, theres no way to check the content which I really wish I did. I was too trusting and ended up with a whole burnt chicken (I asked for peri-tamer for the kids and its just black). I think its messed up that they take advantage of the seal-stickers and let the customers find out by surprise. Again, they provided 4 sauces for a whole chicken and they even burnt most of the sauce/outside. SO! Skip the Burnaby location and come to this spot. Im willing to drive 40 mins round-trip because Id rather not deal with entirely burnt-blackened chicken where I have to spend time to scrape the bitter burnt-bits. Thank you guys for your hard work! I really hope your higher-ups see this review cause you guys are absolutely crushing it, thanks again!
First time to Nando s. Got the ½ chicken with 2 sides (rice and cauliflower), extra hot, and ½ chicken with 1 side, hot. Chicken was moist. The sauces were quite salty - tried the extra hot, and garlic. The sides were on the soggier side. Got water to drink but the drink dispenser wouldn t dispense water. Staff were attentive and brought us water and refilled it. The dispenser had a lot to choose from for soft drinks though so that s a bonus. Really liked the hand wash station - big bonus for that. Personally, nandos wasn t for me, but they were busy (for both take out and dine in) so clearly a favourite for many. Staff were really great - friendly, helpful and attentive.
Nandos is consistently good. Unfortunately the tables were sticky and that made the meal less pleasant. I told a staff member, but they blamed the sanitizer and didnt seem to care. Might as well turn this place into takeout only.
I was shocked today how good our family meal at this Nandos was! It was exactly the same as back home in South Africa, and much better than ones we had in Australia or the UK. Also, the staff was very friendly and the whole atmosphere was great, replica of typical Nandos in South Africa. Well be back soon! Kid-friendliness: There are a few decent options for kids.
It was a monday evening and the kids just finished kick boxing and Brazilian jujitsu. They were hungry and needed to feed them. Originally we were going for fried chicken ut decided to do something more healthy. The restaurant was not too busy so we lined up and was served rather quickly. I was not sure what to order so I asked the attendant and she suggested the full chicken platter. It was in special so i went for it. What a great deal! It was a whole chicken with a mango perri sauce, 2 medium sides. I ordered coleslaw and fries. We sat down after we paid. Only $21 for everything. The chicken was so juicy and tender. Only problem I had was that we waited rather long for our water to be delivered to our table. Will come back again.
I have been to many Nando s locations and this location was my first time. Casher that took our order was nice however, when we went to our table it wasn t clean properly. Food didn t take long. I was disappointed with the food portions which chicken skewers, fries and mash. I always get bigger portions at different locations. Spent $30 including tips and was still hungry.
The food is very good and many of the staff are polite, efficient, and friendly. If anything, some are too eager as they start asking what would you like to order when your only halfway through the entrance door. Overall, its kept clean.
Food was decent, seemed to take longer then normal to receive food.
It was ok
My company ordered nando The chicken was dry and rice was hard it s really hard it seems made few days ago It was disappointed Food : 2/5
We had our favorite sides, the macho peas and mashed potatoes with our chicken. Wow wow, everything is so delicious! The staff are super friendly and helpful and I wish your restaurant was over the border in Washington too. I will gladly drive the 40 miles to dine with you again!
Nandos has always been my comfort food. Its my go to when I dont know what to eat. I havent had the greatest experience coming to this location. First time I visited, the workers there were super friendly but they missed an item in my order. The 2nd time I visited, the girl helping me at the cash seemed like she didnt want to be working there. Im not sure if its only this location, or that theyve changed their portions, but very similar to one of the reviews, Ive noticed they really skimp out on the fries. At first I thought I got a smaller amount since it was an add on to my meal. However, I went one time just ordering the fries alone and got the same small quantity. The other Nando locations Ive gone to never close the lid and just pile on the fries... this location closes the lid and and isnt even full. Very disappointing. I dont think Ill be returning to this location again. Customer service here is also hit and miss.
I like this location it s very good clean and tidy there food quality is good i like this location
Great food, service and a well maintained clean establishment. Highly recommend this location
Friendly staff and good food :)
I had a fantastic dining experience at this restaurant. The cleanliness and the friendly staff immediately made me feel welcome. If youre a fan of spicy food, youre in for a treat! The dishes were not only really good but also had that delightful kick of spiciness. I highly recommend trying the chicken liver; its a true delight for liver enthusiasts. The flavors were truly delicious and satisfying. Ill definitely be returning for more of their spicy delights!
The food was great, I guess the furniture needs to be replaced. Thanks
Great service, amazing flavours but very small portions.
Today my husband, my daughter and i went for dinner at this location and we were extremely satisfied with the service! The restaurant was extremely clean and the staff was incredibly nice! We were served fast and well and the food tasted delicious! The manager of the restaurant Vikram, made us feel incredibly special and everything was smooth from beginning to the end of our stay there we will definitely be back!
Very dry chicken wings and they taste like they are not fresh at all. Ordered 2 sides of fries but only received 1. Surrey location is much better with fresh chicken wings and accurate order.
Went to order Ceasar salad which the website says they have got there the double charged me for some spicy kale salad and never told me they no longer sell Ceasar salad
Known for authentic South African cuisine
Kristy (the supervisor) of this location is amazing! I ve had a wonderful experience each time I come in and because of her, I specifically come to this location! She ensures the food, customer service and atmosphere is immaculate! Kristy has made our experience at Nandos awesome!
It is a typical Thursday evening and Nandos is posted as open until 9:30pm. Arrive to location at 8pm and the entire restaurant is CLOSED. Dont advertise its open online if youre closed. Waste of our time and commute. Not impressed with false advertising!
I used to love this Nando s. I even left a 5 stars review 6 years ago. But today I ordered a take out, this Nando s not even forgot my fries but also added a ladybird in my salad!
Nice little place to eat, come early if you want to dine in because its really small inside.
I dont usually make reviews but I just had to, Sav is the best! Everytime I come to nandos she always greats us with the biggest smile and she treats her staff with respect and the environment is always fun even on the busy days. 100%recommended for the great food but 110% recommend for the excellent service.
The food was delicious and theres a variety of pop flavors. The service was great! Highly recommended!
Excellent service, delicious food. Thank you.
Good food
