1 /5 prasanth sritharan: This is the second time this week I’ve visited Nando’s and asked for a booth seat, and on both occasions the request was refused by the lady manager. Each time I was told it was because the restaurant was going to get busy, even though the restaurant was almost empty when we arrived.
Two days ago, there were three of us and we were seated at a smaller table, which ended up being too small for the amount of food we ordered. Today, we returned as a party of four and were again refused a booth seat. We were told the booths are for six people, however just two days ago I saw four people seated in one, and another booth was available at the time.
Unfortunately, the manager’s attitude felt unwelcoming both times, which was disappointing, as the rest of the staff were friendly and the food is good, mac n cheese can be a bit better. On this occasion, we decided to leave and eat elsewhere. This used to be our local Nando’s, but after these experiences, we’re unlikely to return.
