  I went there for the first time with my family, and the food and service was exceptional. The Chicken was well cooked, presentation was great, and the peri peri souce was probably the highlight of my dinner. The owner, Amosh was a great host, accomodating all our requests and met all our needs. Thank you! We certainly are coming back and telling all our friends about this gym in Ballwin.

  This Port of Peri Peri is amazing! The food is absolutely delicious.its fresh, flavorful, and perfectly seasoned. Every dish we tried was cooked just right, and you can really tell they care about quality and taste. What truly sets this place apart, though, is the service. The owner/manager is incredibly kind, welcoming, and attentive, which makes the whole experience even better. Honestly, everyone there is so nice and friendly, you feel genuinely welcomed from the moment you walk in. Great food, great vibes, and even better people. Highly recommend this place.

  Ordered from Uber eats twice. The food didn't even taste cooked. Last time the rice was terrible but the chicken was okay, but this time they were both terrible. Definitely would not recommend.

  Lovely food, well-seasoned, and so full of flavor. Their chicken is SO good, and their sides are great, too (especially the falafel). I haven't had Nando's, but looking at the menus, I'd say this one has a leg up in terms of variety. My girlfriend has had Nando's and loves this place, too, and gets really excited whenever we get the chance to come here. The sauce is DELICIOUS but be VERY AWARE of the heat level you get. There is a *MASSIVE* jump between medium and anything above it, and there are *THREE* levels above medium. I'm pretty well-acquainted with spice, and I feel like medium is the sweet spot without ruining enjoying the meal. Even then, my sinuses were cleared out! However, I will say that their soda dispenser is an absolute menace. The first time I came here, the ratio was off, so it was like 90% carbonated water. The last time, the ratio was better, but the soda is dispensed with the force of a fire hose and creates a ton of head and splashing. All in all, a great place for some actually exciting chicken that isn't deep fried. I just wish I didn't have to go all the way to Ballwin for it. Please expand across the river!

  I've been going back and forth on this review in my head for a while now but finally decided to kill some electrons and get it written. The good: amazing chicken! The bad: customer service, even after the change in management, was non-existent. Apparently everything the new management team posted on Facebook turns out to be eyewash as opposed to substantive change. The ugly: what the hell is in your food that you won't disclose the nutritional information?!? Not available in the restaurant, not available online, nothing. This is a franchise which is operating more than 20 locations and as such is required to post nutritional information. I loved the food but the rest of the experience makes it doubtful I'll be back anytime soon. 'Could have been better' associated with the 2-star rating absolutely describes our experience. Really disappointing!
