As busy as it gets they do a great job at getting your meal out as soon as they can. Always fresh and tasty tender chicken. Decent pricing and you never feel guilty dining there.

Nandos is by far one of my favourite fast food places, and this branch being my local means I'm there often. Their takeaway food is fresh and the periperi chips are perfect. Staff are always friendly and accommodating, store is also kept very clean

Nice, quick and easy restaurant “style” eatery, the restaurant in new Lynn was renovated a little while ago and looks really good
I luuuuuuurve the haloumi chips!
The sharing style menu is really great, point of difference from your “normal” fast food restaurant

You can't really go wrong with Nandos but this place is one of the better outlets. The service is always good and there's sufficient seating despite the small size. Finally I really appreciate their discount for students, always goes a long way!

You should not go wrong with chicken! And this Nando’s outlet doesn’t . Very warm and positive staff. Me and my Mrs often visit for a quick bite when we miss some spicy chicken.

Nando's is one of my favourite food joints here in Auckland. We have been to this place couple of time now. This time was not an exception. Warm greetings. Ease of ordering the food and it is at you table on time. We ordered the full chicken with hot sauce and a coleslaw. It wqs delicious.

This is a popular food chain known for its peri peri chicken flavor. I am very fond of spicy food so I genuinely love this place. There is no alternative to Nando's chicken and the peri peri fries. Though a bit unhealthy, it seems like a perfect meal to me. So, its a great place but I think considering the quantity, it may seem a little bit overpriced. But they offer a special south african flavor which you can't really find elsewhere, so that is alright!!

I usually go to the one in New Lynn and its so good. And pretty much always have the baby back ribs. They are so juicy. Love the sauce they are cooked in. And i like spicy stuff so i mix the hot sauce they provide as well.
Have also tried Paella and found it a little dry. But its good.
I am never disappointed with the ribs.
Keep the good work going guys.

Great place to have a quick meal! We shared a family feast among 3 people and we all left with full stomaches. I love how I can try so many different peri peri sauces! Chicken was cooked perfectly and tender. I loved the BBQ ribs that came with the whole chicken. I could eat 10 of them because they are so nice!! Coleslaw was a bit of let down tho,, It was pretty bad that we barely touched it.

Starting things off...I LOVE THE NEW LOOK TO THE STORE AFTER ITS RENOVATION!!!

The store used to be old and not pleasing to eat in, but after its fresh refined renovation; it's just got all the right puzzle pieces for a great looking restaurant!

Customer service was great! Staff check up to ask how your meal is going, they top your water up and also smile and always are helpful! The tables were cleaned and always wiped down!

As to the food, the taste is just amazing! New Lynn does a great job in terms of quality of Chicken size and the type of pieces you receive! A generous quantity of your desired sauce compliments the flamed chicken for a mouth watering dining! Peri peri chips are my favourite, and they are perfectly cooked to crispness, rather than being soft and jelly like an earthworm. Some other stores serve drip oily chips, which are soggy and sad looking.

As a negative the prices have gone up! First it used used to be a bit cheaper, plus you got a loyalty card. Then they got rid of the loyalty card. Now they have higher prices and no loyalty card!

Nandoos...you're loosing lots of your regulars due to your new sales strategies!

I love coming here and would come more often if the prices weren't so high! Still a great place which I love to dine in!

Been here recently in the renovated New Lynn branch. Good service, good food. Like the new decor. Should probably add more sides on the menu.

I have somehow seen a decline in taste overtime it seems. I remember visiting this place, and ordering tons of different things, and putting on the hottest sauce. But now it seems everything has got same taste, and very limited variety. It's still a good place to grab and go, which I usually do now.

Our second Nandos visit in West Auckland, the first was at Westfield in Henderson. Nothing out of the ordinary, between two of us (either a mate or a family member, mostly a mate) we would always buy the family feast making it extra hot. After all, spicy food is more of my specialty in flavour. The is actually clean I must say and the service from the counter is pretty good, their cooking time is quite fast compared to the other outlets I've been to.

Come here every now and then to grab a quick takeaway dinner if we don't feel like cooking. The service is fine, they get right on to making your food, the chicken tenderloins are always tender (sometimes a bit too salty though) and the chicken Pitas are good. The burgers can be quite dry. The Peri Peri Chip Dip is so yummy and also the Creamy Chip Dip - Nandos chips are awesome. I think Nandos in general is overpriced for what you get, but it's not an every day thing to eat. In my opinion the atmosphere in New Lynn Nandos is drab and dull; it's not very inviting at all and the seats are all squashed together in the way. Overall the food is good especially if you take away.

I'm a huge chicken fan and at Nandos you can always expect well cooked dishes that are spiced to perfection with an option of having mild, medium or hot Peri-Peri sauce.
The chips here are my favourite in town too.

I am a regular here as you can imagine.

Probably the best nando's branch in town to get your grilled chicken fix! Food was very nice and the staff were friendly and checked up on us if we got everything we wanted and the place looked amazing because of all the lights

We used to go in for lunch and dinner but have recently opted for the takeaway option. Food is always good, chicken always cooked to right perfection and the salads are always fresh unlike other branches. The till operator is always so patient and polite with us but the service stops there. This is part of the reason why we prefer to takeaway home now. Another reason is due to the cleanliness of the tables/floor and cutlery which can sometimes get abit greasy/sticky. Other days it is as clean as can be. Not too sure what the reason behind this is but will still visit regularly(once a week or so) for takeaway dinners.

Love the food here and the service is the best I've experienced at any nandos, highly reccomed to all. We ordered the chicken tenderloins and fries which I have to say definetly hit the spot. Although if you do opt for extra hot chicken be ready with an ice cold beverage.

I am editing my review on Nandos New Lynn as recently their service has improved a lot in my opinion. (Just avoid the blonde girl - she continues to be rude and patronizing)

I've been going there 1 (sometimes 2) times a week every week for the past couple of months.

Good service, great food. Keep it up guys :)

Nandos in New Lynn serves really tasty and healthy chicken burgers. We love their chicken with peri peri sauce. The food is always fresh and the flame grilling makes the chicken taste excellent, plus it's healthy. The burgers are also large and very filling. I recommend Nandos.

Well...you can't ignore Nando's if you are craving a nice n spicy chicken bite. Their peri peri flavour is distinctly unique and so I often find myself at this conveniently located outlet. In spite being in the heart of New Lynn town centre, if offers plenty of off-street parking for free (always a major plus). The staff is pretty friendly and dining area is quite spacious. A pretty laid back atmosphere just the way I like it. If you haven't already, you should try their veg burger. Arguably the best veg burger in town. Though, my craving for peri peri chicekn often blinds me to everything else on the menu. Good on you guys, keep up the good (and spicy) work!

People can dine in and should scan a code on the table to order online. We had a whole chicken with 2 large sides. The hot sauce for the whole chicken was delicious. Peri peri kumara chips and corn on the cob with butter were tasty too. Just the corn cobs and some parts of the chicken were burned, so tasted bitter… But fast service though.

This was pretty much par for the course for Nandos. The restaurant was clean, if a little tired looking but the facilities were otherwise good. Toilets were on-site, and parking was better than expected. Staff were friendly and efficient, but unfortunately, they don't take cash payments. This was a little problematic for us as we were from overseas. The restaurant is spacious, and seating is comfortable. There are no steps. All of which would normally lead to an excellent disabled access score. Unfortunately, the front door is so heavy that I had to help my wife open it and keep it open. Recommend that Nandos replace the door with a sliding one.

This was my first time having Nando's and am not disappointed! Four of us went for a midweek dinner here and decided the best option was to get s share platter between us all. Would definitely recommend this option if you want a sample of a few things and not pay more as individuals. All up i think we paid around 70 or just under for the platter and a bottled drink each. Not too bad considering how good the food was. Can honestly say i will be back to try anything qith their delicious bbq sauce on! Our chicken was cooked to perfection, chips crispy and service was very fast. Will be back again for sure to try more from the menu.

This particular nandos was totally awesome. Especially after the recent Renovations this place looks really beautifully. The ambiance and decor was lovely. The staff was also nice. It was totally packed when we went. The food was nicely presented and seemed fresh. The only thing was that the parking was hard to find. Still great experience and highly recommended.

I recently visited Nando's and I must say, I was impressed. The food was delicious and the service was excellent. The staff were friendly and accommodating, making sure that everything was to our liking. The chicken was cooked to perfection, with just the right amount of spice and tenderness. The sides were also tasty and well-prepared. The restaurant itself had a great atmosphere and was clean and well-maintained. Overall, I had a fantastic experience at Nando's and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for some delicious, high-quality chicken.
