    The piri piri chicken was divine! The service was excellent and everything we tried from the fried bananas to the banoffee was excellent.

    After many wonderful meals at Piri Piri, sadly this restaurant has deteriorated. We always go early evening, and unfortunately the chicken and chips were dry and hard. They had been reheated, not freshly cooked. The staff are always good, and the outdoor terrace very welcoming. Such a shame that the food has gone downhill. This is the second time we have been served poor food, so sadly not a one off.

    Great place to have roasted chicken. Desserts are nice as well. Good wine of the house. The train pass by every 30mn which brings a touch of grounded place. Go there and get the chicken. Period.

    We visited a couple of years ago and enjoyed it. The prices seem to have increased and portion size decreased. The food was pleasant but I feel it was overpriced.

    Not our first time at Piri Piri, as always super friendly service. The food arrives fast, the portions are big, and it is very good.

    Based on a previous fantastic experience, we went back for dinner (with great expectations) with a friend, only to be somewhat underwhelmed and a little embarrassed by dry, overcooked chicken (their signature dish), which really looked and tasted like reheated lunch. The beers were great, the caprese salad was good, and the garlic prawns were also ok. The fries also looked like they had been sitting under the pass for too long. The service , whilst intense, was sporadic, and we did not know who our waiter was as everyone kept checking in on the table. If anything, we felt somewhat pressured to order the next course after 30 seconds. It's a real pity, as our previous experience was 5 star. Will we go back? Not sure, but probably, to hope that it improves radically. This may, however, encourage us to try other chicken specialty restaurants. We are not tourists, we live here. Pity, we love the place.

    The food was no better than ok. The staff had no idea at all. Soup arrived at the same time as the main so was sent back. They repeatedly had to read their own menu board to know what the menu of the day included.

    A bit quiet tonight so lacked atmosphere. Food was ok but nothing to write home about. Just didn’t feel up to it’s usual standard. Hopefully a minor glitch in what is normally a great place to eat.
