Frangos Peri Peri is a mini Portuguese chain specializing in said African-Portuguese dish. The most well known chain for this spot is Nando's with a few in DC but there's none of them here. There's a a couple of these spots with the original one being in Middle Village (in queens) but there's also a few other locations as well.I went here with one of my less common groups to sample some of the tasty food here. The head was ordering for us as he had a mild/moderate spice tolerance so we stuck with the less heat focused options but it was still tasty. The service was alright being pretty friendly but not with the best English. I presume the guy spoke Portuguese or something similar. The drink selection has a good soda fountain with more unique options than most.We started with the hummus listed as hummus with a drizzle of peri peri sauce and served with nachos or pita bread. We got it with pita and it was fine. The hummus had a fun spice kick from the peri peri but had some of the creaminess you'd associate with a hummus. I presume they don't make in house but the peri peri was a nice touch.We got two of the Whole Grilled Chickens, Lamb Chops, and the Beef Bites as the main. The former was with a mix of mild and the garlic and herb. The chicken was pretty sauce and quite tasty. A bit of heat but not much as expected but they did have some sauces on the table which helped kicked it up a bit.The lamb chops we got with mango and lime. You couldn't taste the lamb much from the sweet sauce but it was tender and tasty. Pretty solid but tiny chops for the price.If you're looking for something more substantial based on price, the beef bites with flame grilled bite size beef served with rice & salad or fries was probably the most filling. We got the lemon & herb for the beef and the beef could have been a bit more tender but it still had a tasty sauce.For sides, the Grilled Cauliflower was probably the best of the group also having some peri peri on it. The Seasoned Fries were also very tasty with a tiny kick. The Coleslaw was luckily not that watery but lacked a bit of flavor and the Spicy Rice wasn't that spiced and the salad was standard with a creamy dressing.It's hard to rate this spot. The chicken was solid and the food overall was pretty tasty but I find the prices a tad high for just about everything with especially the sides being overpriced for the sizes. Still solid though and I can see why it's liked by a lot of people. Mid 3?

Met former coworkers for lunch here. The food was very good but the service was a little lacking. Not sure how long this place will last since they didn't seem busy at all but if you do need a solid lunch option in the area, I recommend it.

Chicken cooked with unique sweet and spicy flavors. If you dine in, there's a selection of sauces at each table so you can experiment with the whole flavor range.

This is one of my favorite go to places for delivery. The food is always packaged well and tasty. My favs are the chicken kebob apps, the hummus app and the wings. I also love the chicken bites and beef bites (which come with peri peri sauce on top)platters with rice and salad, which comes topped with the dressing so if you don't want the dressing on top, make sure to mention that in the comments. I have not actually gone to the restaurant even though it's near my house I walked by it, and I think I would go in if I was in the neighborhood when it was time to eat. This place has never done me wrong!

My entire family got food poisoned yesterday. I've ordered from here few times. I miss Nandos and flavor wise this was the closest to Nandos. In the past the food was always a hit or miss but yesterday I can't even fathom what the 6 of us went through. The chicken smelled like fart or faeces. I didn't think too much about it. We were starving so we all pushed through and just ate and we all discussed how the chicken smelled like fart. I complained to DoorDash talking about the quality & we got half of the food refunded. Then at 3am, one by one we started throwing up in the toilet. It hit my 4 year old the worse. We are still in the process of getting better and hoping this feeling is short term. Overall I'm disgusted they served us spoiled chicken. Not much to say to that.

Visited Frangos Peri Peri for dinner with a friend on Wednesday evening. I was super excited to try this place as it seemed like an equivalent to Nando's, and I was not disappointed! We ordered the meal for two which came with 1/2 chicken, 5 wings, and 2 sides. We opted for the lemon & herb spice for our 1/2 chicken, mango & lime spice for the wings, and garlic bread & spiced fries for our sides. It was the perfect amount of food for a great price, and everything was absolutely delicious! The servers were also attentive and friendly -- everything about the experience here was great. Will definitely be back!

Excellent peri peri! Absolutely on point! I haven't had peri peri this good in years... and I've been searching. Everything was so good. The chicken was grilled perfectly and had the right amount of sauce. The chicken was crispy outside but flavorful and juicy inside. The rice corn and coleslaw paired nicely together and complemented the meal. It's open late and I'm glad i decided to stop in and give it a try.

Nice spot and would recommend for takeout. Small but friendly owners who make you feel welcome. Even the mild sauce is a bit spicy so be prepared. Interesting flavors so get all three to try.
