3 x Deliveries ordered from this store and ever one has been a shit show. They NEVER remember the drizzle - might as well go to Tesco for Houmus and Pita breas as its cheaper. Tonight in addition to no houmous drizzle we didn't receive our Halloumi Sticks. You need to retrain your team. Disappointed again and will never return.

A convenient Nandos right in the heart of Dublin. Luckily we got seated straight away, though the restaurant is quite small and I'm guessing can be full a lot of the time!

Double Pitta was delicious, with succulent chicken and well distributed halloumi. I only got a side salad with it so hard to award a 5/5 without seeing how the chips are here.

I'd forgotten how expensive Nandos is in Ireland compared to the UK!

My first Nando's outside the UK and my 130th different Nando's was a memorable affair for all the right reasons! SVC and I arrived at lunch time having flown to Dublin from London at breakfast time and were warmly greeted by manager, Jason. The restaurant was busy but we were seated straight away and there was no queue to order, great stuff.

On our whistle-stop tour of Dublin, it was imperative that we sample the local Nando's and compare its validity to those back home. On arrival, we were greeted by the manager who was incredibly friendly and had many suggestions on how to participate and enjoy a Nando's. He enlightened us to the joy of livers which we devoured on a subsequent visit to Nando's. This Nando's had lovely decor, nice paintings, fantastic lavatorial facilities and positive Nando's loving staff.

So in April this year, I finally branched out of the UK and visited my first "international" Nando's and it didn't disappoint!

I can't comment on the parking situation, but it is located in the busy City Centre, so would rate this as N/A.

Arrived here at 2pm on a Monday afternoon. It was pretty quiet, maybe only a third full, so no wait to be seated, to order - and the food came in 8 minutes.

First visit after having heard a lot praise and several people mentioning it to me as I like very hot food.
I like the way of ordering and how you can choose your level of hotness on all dishes. I chose the XX Hot which was hot but still very tasty. It is easy to make things hot but not as easy to keep it tasty as well. Staff was friendly but I wish they would not ask us every five minutes if everything is OK.
Overall, very nice visit. I will be back.

Mary Street, Dublin, 3rd nandos in 2 days, Preview night hence why it was so busy! Staff amazingly freindly and helpful despite being run off feet by the massive queue of people. The managers were out helping and cleaning tables ect but still had time to chat to the customers. Decoration nice, loved the ceiling. Sauce and beverage area had cool cut aways for the various bottles and was right in front of till so they can see when it needs help.
