Our waiter Foysol yesterday was very helpful and has great customer service. In regards to the food, the loaded fries definitely could have had more chicken instead of tiny dash of it on top of the large fries but good amount of sauce.

Rafael absolutely deserves to be Employee of the Year! He’s a fantastic person and makes every visit to Nando’s feel truly special. Rafael is always smiling, incredibly helpful, and his service is consistently 100% exceptional. He goes above and beyond to ensure a brilliant dining experience. Keep up the amazing work, Rafael!

Excellent Customer Service at Nando’s Stratford Westfield! I had a fantastic experience at Nando’s in Stratford Westfield recently, and I want to give a big shoutout to two outstanding team members – Monica and Fedelia. From the moment I walked in, they went above and beyond to make me feel welcome and taken care of. They both greeted me with a warm smile and helped me find the perfect table. They were attentive without being intrusive, and made sure I was comfortable throughout my visit. They were both equally impressive. What stood out the most was their genuine friendliness and teamwork. You could tell they enjoy what they do and take pride in delivering a great customer experience. In a busy restaurant, it’s rare to feel that well looked after, but they truly made my visit memorable. Kudos to both of them for their professionalism, positive energy, and excellent service. Nando’s is lucky to have such dedicated staff! Thank you!!!

Nando's Westfield Stratford is the largest location I have visited so far. It is situated on the 3rd floor of Westfield Stratford, near the cinema. The restaurant is designed to handle a high volume of customers, featuring a queuing system outside and plenty of seating inside. The staff are friendly and welcoming, and the service is reasonably fast. The seating is comfortable, with options available for individuals, small groups, or larger parties. The food is well-cooked and arrives warm. Additionally, the prices are quite reasonable compared to other establishments. Overall, I had an enjoyable experience and would highly recommend it.

My daughter and I popped in for a meal on the 14th of June 2025, after visiting relatives in Forest Gate. While the service was good - the staff were attentive and efficient - we were quite disappointed with the portion sizes. My 1/4 chicken, creamy mash, and spicy rice, along with my daughter's wings, creamy mash, and garlic bread, seemed noticeably smaller than on previous visits to other Nando's restaurants. The selection of drinks were great as always, but the reduced food portions definitely impacted our overall experience.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We celebrated my daughter’s birthday at All Star Lanes in Stratford, and it was absolutely amazing! The manager, chris, was incredible he was always there when we needed him, super friendly, and made sure everyone was happy. He went around to all the tables with a big smile, creating such a positive atmosphere. Everything was well organized, and the kids had an amazing time bowling and celebrating together. There were 15 of us, and everyone left with big smiles. Thank you, Chris and the team, for making the day so special!

Visit last week. We booked for private party. Place and environment was amazing. Rashid and Tamy was amazing and friendly, best thing is food was ready and settled before we pop into the restaurant. We had great time. Recommend 100%

Had an amazing time bowling recently! The lanes were well-maintained, and the overall atmosphere was lively and fun. What made the experience even better was the exceptional service we received. A special shout-out to Geethika — she was incredibly friendly, attentive, and made sure everything ran smoothly. Whether it was helping us get set up or checking in to make sure we had what we needed, her positive attitude really stood out. It’s rare to find someone who’s both professional and warm, but Geethika nailed it. Great bowling, great vibes, and top-notch service. Highly recommend for a fun night out!

Amazing experience. Tried the bowling, was many shoes to use but we decided not to. Lane was clean and place was organised. Featured a mini arcade with a fun selection as well as a bar and restaurant. We had the pizza and wings and chips and pitta bread, tasty and quick. Would deffo recommend to anyone!

Had an absolutely amazing time bowling and dining here! The atmosphere was fun, energetic, and perfect for a night out. The lanes were well-maintained, and the staff made sure everything ran smoothly. A big shoutout to Geethika for her outstanding service — she was incredibly friendly, attentive, and made sure our experience was nothing short of perfect. The food was delicious, served hot and fresh, and paired perfectly with the fun vibe of the place.

From the warm welcome at reception to the food, everything was superb. The dishes with their little pots of flavours were excellent. The only slight downside, and it really is only slight, was the temperature inside the restaurant, which also affected the temperature of the food, depending on your point of view. The background music also warms up the atmosphere and sets the mood. The decor is very nice. Otherwise, we recommend this restaurant 1000%, which is number 1 on our list of establishments visited in Stratford (95%).

Hishila was professional from start to finish! Attentive, diligent and the most graceful hostess. Excellent food and allergen knowledge and suggested phenomenal combos of starters and mains! GIVE THIS BLOODY WOMAN A RAISE!

Came for lunch, really enjoyed it. Spacious inside with funky tunes and open kitchen providing all the atmosphere. We had one of each taco, big bowl of padron peppers, the gorgeous bean stew and winning casava with truffle + parm. Great price with offer; want the tomahawk next 😋 Shout out Aisha who was perfect professional waitress.

We had a lovely dinner at Cabana in Stratford. Started off with the grilled prawn tacos, which were fresh and full of flavour. For mains, we had the grilled chicken skewer and the flat iron steak—both were cooked beautifully and really satisfying. The only downside was the cocktails, which didn’t quite hit the mark for us taste-wise. Everything else was spot on though, and we’d definitely recommend the food—just maybe skip the cocktails.

I’d heard of this chain previously but had allowed myself to be put off by a general distaste for the person who recommended it. Foolish of me. I learn. He was someone who never tipped though, so you can understand the sentiment. Anyhow, staying in Stratford for a couple of nights and this place was very near my hotel (Hyatt) – I love Mexican food and, from what I could see through the window, it looked very tasty. I thought therefore I’d give it a go. The interior of the restaurant has a faux industrial/rustic vibe going on, with exposed rebar (I like a bit of exposed rebar) and mismatched seating, some of it sunken in the manner of the 1970s. The restaurant is brightly lit, which is a good thing as there were several steps. The kitchen is semi-open and raised, so you can see the food upon the pass. Nice to see. The only negative for me was a big painting of sweetcorn on the wall – I have a visceral dislike of sweetcorn. This is a personal thing though and shouldn’t put you off visiting. For some reason the sweetcorn is multicoloured and is being visited by a large honeybee, I didn’t understand that. Service was quick and efficient, and the waiter tried hard to interest us in the special – normally I would have jumped at this as the special was Birria (I love Birria), but it was a sort of sandwich thing and I wasn’t in the mood for bread. I find bread is a mood these days, whereas once upon time I couldn’t get enough of it. Interesting how we change as we age. I ordered a Diet Coke for my drink, as I continue to offer respect to my liver ahead of the festive period. The menu is interesting, it isn’t divided up in a traditional way – starters, mains etc. You have some small things as like pre-dinner snacks, then some small plates, then some large plates, some sides and some random things that don’t fit anywhere. You can design your meal. I like this, but I know some it would not sit well with. Anyhow, given that choice I thought I’d have a double helping of tacos, because tacos are life. Beef Gringa and buttermilk chicken – these were very different, the beef was saucy and rich, the chicken was fried and crisp, both adorned with loved accoutrement. Impressive tacos, I really enjoyed these and would certainly order them again. Whilst dining, I saw a burrito being eaten at the next table – it was huge – I’m glad I didn’t order that. I thought I’d break tradition and have a pudding here – this was mainly because they have combined two of my favourites into a single dish with a marriage of tiramisu and a tres leches cake, to create a tres leches tiramisu. Gosh this was rich, delicious, creamy and rich. Beautiful, sweet pudding, I could have had this again and again. Definitely have this if you visit. Overall, a successful visit and the price was more than reasonable for such tasty food – I would recommend a visit here. Two paws up. Don’t let yourself be put off trying things, give it a go. Dining in Stratford is a strange experience – I prefer these restaurants that are ‘outside’ of the shopping centre rather than clustered together around it’s internal food market area. Better opportunities for people-watching.

We walked in without a booking and they found us a lovely table away from children (school holidays). The staff are all incredibly friendly and efficient. They had some great deals. We had the feasting menu (pictured), which was probably a little too much for two averaged sized people, it didn’t leave room for a pudding. The cocktails and mocktails are equally delicious. You don’t miss the alcohol in their cocktails. Bathrooms have separate male, female and disabled loos, although everyone shares the sinks, ideal if you just want to wash your hands before you eat.

We went here before going to ABBA voyage and it was so lovely !! Really great and delicious food (we both opted for some tacos and different sides including sweet potato and cauliflower). The mini margaritas were so cute 🥺 fab experience !!

We had such a great time at Wahaca today. Our server, Sanel, was absolutely amazing — genuinely friendly, attentive and made the whole experience even better. We loved one of the hot sauces, and Sanel was kind enough to bring us nachos on the house so we could enjoy it properly. Little gestures like that make a huge difference. The food was delicious, the vibes were great, and honestly the sauce was so good that Wahaca should definitely sell it — we would buy it in a heartbeat! Highly recommended. Will definitely be coming back! 🌮🔥

Lewis was brilliant, very personable and brought great energy in his customer service with us. Thanks to Lewis and the whole pizza express team for our smooth experience.

I would rank this a 5 star pizza chain in Stratford area. Quiet for sure compared to the one at Westfield itself, which is what I like about for families with young children to dine in. Been couple of times, service and food have been fantastic! Would come back to this place again for sure.
Felix Gan - a year ago

The service was excellent as always, the restaurant is very child friendly, the drinks are reasonably priced and I just love the reliability of knowing Pizza Express is a consistent brand we can trust. There's something for everyone there whether a child, baby, adult or vegan. Best restaurant in our area. I also appreciate that we get to add our own tip instead of these crazy 13.5% bills on service in other places. The staff are always great and a friendly face.
Amy Jackson - 3 months ago

Hands down, this is the best pizza I've ever had in my entire life, and that includes my time in Rome! The staff was exceptional, with a friendly and helpful waiter who guided us through the menu. I wholeheartedly recommend this fantastic place with an outstanding kitchen.

Amazing experience. Food is fresh, clean and tasty! The service is amazing because everyone has such positive energy! Christy and the team will always look after you, with a smile! You can always rely on pho! Highly recommend, always come here for heart warming Vietnamese cuisine.
Mark Castillo - 5 months ago

I recently visited Pho, a restaurant known for its Vietnamese cuisine. They offer a wide variety of dishes, which is great, but I did notice that halal options are quite limited. However, after speaking with the staff, we found out that the chicken is halal and they were accommodating enough to prepare the broth using vegetable stock upon request. We decided to go with that option, and I have to say, the food didn’t disappoint. The broth was flavorful, light yet rich, and paired perfectly with the tender chicken and fresh herbs. It was a comforting and satisfying meal. While I do wish they had more halal choices on the menu, the staff’s willingness to adjust the dish to suit our needs was appreciated. If you’re looking for Vietnamese food in Stratford and require halal options, it’s worth having a quick chat with the team — they seem quite flexible. Would definitely go back to explore more of their menu!

This Pho restaurant is situated in the Westfield shopping centre Terribly disappointed with this food. I have tried the Vietnamese spring rolls that were so tasteless and so terribly done. I would not recommend eating there ditto for the warm wine!! The photos will say it all: if this restaurant cannot make what I consider the most basic spring roll then please step out of the way! The service was good though

I remember this restaurant from when I lived in London and the mall had just opened. It’s been ages since my last trip to London, but on this visit for work I had to return. Food here is just as delicious as I remembered, and the staff are very friendly. Highly recommend! ☺️
Sofia Pereira - a month ago

Keep visiting because I really love the taste of steak pho and they have lovely, friendly staffs, also I live near by. The food is fast so it really fits people who is hungry or don’t want to cook. The only one thing to suggest: Will be great if the quality of food can be kept in a same level, bc sometimes the soup will be salty than ever, sometimes the beef is rare or well down, sometimes too much green onions on the top……if possible, but is really a lovely place though.

One of the many (better) options in Westfield Stratford in the food court. If you’re a Thai (food) lover, definitely visit the place. Great options, lovely staff, mouth watering food. Added advantage 25% NHS / blue light discount

Best test I ever had in Thai food. Value for money I would say. Very helpful staff & good service. Thank you Raj for suggesting ur best dish.

A large and spacious branch of Rosa’s Thai. Visited with colleagues on a Wednesday evening and lots of space available without booking. Food was pretty standard but the head waitresses / manager was clearly in a terrible mood which gave off a bad vibe. Also the fish sauce was visibly different in concentration which makes it difficult to believe that bottles are new. Will probably skip coming here next time.

While the food was undeniably enjoyable, I wouldn’t rate the service a full five stars—mainly due to the increasingly common reliance on online or screen-based ordering. That said, the food itself was excellent. I thoroughly enjoyed the chicken burger—well-seasoned, juicy, and cooked just right. The chips were a standout as well, with a delectable flavor, especially with the sauce generously drizzled on top. But the true highlight of the meal was the pistachio milkshake. Rich, creamy, and perfectly nutty—it stole the show and left a lasting impression. A delightful way to end a satisfying lunch.

Food was amazing as always. The limited Smokey Chipotle fries was unreal, just a bit spicy. Too bad they're not a permanent menu item. Expensive, yes, but delicious. A treat every couple of months. Love it! Only real issue it was very slow. 17 mins to get my order, and it wasn't even busy.
John Brownlie - 6 months ago

I like the food. The service and the place itself suck. It's a shame they've gone to self-service screens - the whole vibe of the place is weird and dystopian. Don't do draft beer anymore, which is a shame, and the food took far too long to prepare. It's supposed to be fast food - a twenty minute wait isn't really on. Geared up for delivery drivers more than customers who want to eat in. Still, I guess the shareholder value must be improved and really, what else matters?

I love that they have the breakfast menu all day here, the staff is friendly. The last time I ate at Balans in Kensington, they said they stop serving breakfast after 5, which was a bit disappointing for me. I love the pancakes with Korean fried chicken. The chicken was crispy, the pancake was fluffy, although I wish we had more sauce. The veggie with a hint of kimchi was subtle and not overpowering. I added extra bacon, which made it perfect.

i was skeptical and had my reservations due to all the negative reviews, but this meal was fantastic. i ordered the fried chicken pancakes and everything was full of flavour! meal arrived piping hot and the portion size was brilliant. the pancakes were such a lovely texture, and i’m not even usually a fan of these american style ones. the food also arrived quickly as well, in about 10 mins total. my friend ordered the full english breakfast and she really enjoyed that too. 5 stars ⭐️

The staff are very attentive and professional. The pancakes were very nice and fluffy, although very sickly so I would recommend splitting with something savoury. The mocha’s are so good too. I would definitely recommend visiting.

Great place to eat. Front of house is one of the best in the business! Would definitely go back. Slightly more expensive than other places close by but the food is very good. Would recommend the salmon salad to start as the size of it was very big for a starter. The cheese cake for dessert was definitely the best as I have tried them all! Plenty of different choices on the mains depending on what you fancy that day. Would recommend. On a Friday or Saturday there is normally live music you can listen too when eating which makes the experience better. Have to book in advance for Friday's and Saturday otherwise wait time is rather long.

Located on the corner of the casino floor in its own area which offers a break from the hustle. The layout is open with lots of booth style dining which is perfect for socialising. I've visited here a few times and whilst the service and presentation has got a lot better the food standard for the price sadly hasn't improved, it's just all very... average. I ordered the lamb rack which was very flavoursome however each lamb piece was a 1/3 fat. For a non member price of £30 (members £22.50) it is a bit steep. I'm not saying the price should be dropped here but the quality of ingredients should improve which would help attract more visitors.

Met my daughter for a birthday meal. We had a lovely Sunday roast. Good portions and fresh vegetables. Staff were polite and attentive. Will definitely dine there again. Many thanks for a memorable day!
Bob Harrison - 5 years ago

Service was acceptable, however the food was not up to standard. Pasta dishes are over cooked and tasteless so do not order that option as you'll just end up regret it, I had to end up sending back my food to the kitchen. Ended ordering fish and chip which you think you can't go wrong with however it did went wrong as the fish had bones in it which was shocking and disappointing as I noticed too late. If your in the casino and hungry your better off popping out to get something to eat elsewhere and food was really not enjoyable. P.s check your cutlery before you start to eat as you'll be surprised.

Really nice roast dinner, shame no roast potatoes though, this is my reason for 4 stars.The new potatoes were nice but I expect roast potatoes with my roast dinner. The meat was delicious & lovely desert too. Service was excellent.
