This restaurant had such a cute vibe! I’d rate the atmosphere an 8.5/10, but the food I ordered was more of a 4/10. One highlight is their live DJ during brunch, who played some really great music. If you’re in the area, check it out and let me know what you think! #chicagofoodie #foodie #unfi

Just checked out Nando’s, and it did not disappoint. The chicken was super juicy, packed with flavor, and cooked just right. The Peri-Peri spice had the perfect kick, and the sides were solid—Peri-Peri fries and garlic bread are easily a top-tier combo. The mashed posted were also really good!
