    Just not worth the money. I ordered a $80 filet and it was chewy....horrible. this place is overpriced and just not worth the money. The atmosphere is fantastic and people are nice and the service is excellent, but the food is just....ooof! Stay away

    Flavorless oysters that were small and the dressings did the opposite of enhancing. Even the Cesar salad was poor tasting. Scallops were ruined by the overpowering red pepper slices on each one on the linguini. Bass was rubbery and tasteless. We ended up not eating the food after two bites each and took them home and threw them both in the garbage. For the most expensive meal we’ve had in a while, this was all around the worst meal we’ve ever paid for.

    Beautiful restaurant and decor. Very classy, classic culture and feels as if you're in another city (definitely not Evansville, lol) Our server was very nice and attentive. Appetizers were great and set the tone for optimism of a great meal. Salads however were such a disappointment and not worthy of a restaurant of this caliber. Ive had better on a Delta flight. The Caesar salad was just a wedge of iceberg lettuce with a little dressing drizzled on top. Thats about as far from a Caesar salad as one could get. I can't recall the salad my wife tried but it was uber lackluster as well. Wife and daughter ordered filets and they were very good. Not fantastic but very good. I ordered the ribeye and unfortunately it was dry, tough and no flavor. The sides of Mac cheese, mashed potatoes were top notch. We tried a few mixed drinks and they had those on lock and were very good. We tried a few deserts and they were decent as well. Our bill was a little over $500. Was i impressed? No, because ive had far better steaks at Perry's, flemings and steak houses in Vegas. Would I try again. Absolutely, its a nice place. However the prices are too high for the steaks we received (aprox $95 ea) with even higher versions available. (i question how good a $250 steak would be in Evansville with our demographic and the volume Nandos can accommodate) I expected much better steaks but we will definitely give them another chance. They appear to be on the right track to have an incredible restaurant.

    My husband and I celebrated our anniversary at Nando's and it was a wonderful experience. Neither of us are big steak people but there is so much on the menu to entice anyone and all of it was amazing. His ribeye was delicious and my sea bass melted in my mouth. We also split a bottle of wine and enjoyed a complimentary glass of prosecco for our anniversary (thanks!). The best thing was the croquettes, which were just perfect. I would have been happy to eat three plates of those. While it's definitely a spot to splurge, I'd love to come back for cocktails and apps at the bar, or another celebratory night out.

    I recently had the pleasure of dining at NANDO Wood-Fired Steak & Seafood, and I must say, it was an exceptional experience from start to finish. The ambiance was warm and inviting, setting the perfect tone for a memorable evening. But what truly stood out was the outstanding service, especially from our server, Rhys. From the moment we were seated, Rhys was attentive, friendly, and incredibly knowledgeable about the menu. He guided us through the specials with genuine enthusiasm, offering insightful recommendations that perfectly matched our preferences. His passion for the food and dedication to ensuring we had a great time were evident throughout the meal. The food itself was cooked to perfection! The wood-fired flavor added a unique touch that elevated each dish. Overall, NANDO Wood-Fired Steak & Seafood exceeded all expectations, thanks in no small part to the exceptional service provided by Rhys. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a top-notch dining experience.
