*Dry run review*

Central London has a brand new Nando's which is one minute from Bond Street tube station. It has a small front with a handful of tables as you walk in including some stools for individual seating looking out on to the street while the majority of seating is in the natural light deprived downstairs area.

The decor is rather nice with interesting diamond-shaped tiles lining the walls and a nice private booth near the lavatories.

The food came after 15 minutes and was of a high standard although my friend's chicken seemed to have much less sauce on it than mine, luck of the draw! The peri chips were great, the halloumi was perfect and the garlic bread was tasty.

All the staff were lovely and are clearly enthusiastic about this new Nando's baby. This restaurant is a welcome addition to the Zone 1 Nando's collection!

I was really badly hungover and the girl at the door let me sit downstairs away from the light which I thought was really cool of them. I chose to order before sitting because I was sooooo hungry
The girl who served me at the tills was really helpful and friendly. All I wanted was some food in me and she was more than happy to give recommendations about what was quick in the kitchen and quick to eat (I got a lemon and herb double wrap with cheese inside and chips with peri peril salt which was delicious by the way!)
The thing that stuck out most was that I ordered spicy mixed olives and she actually asked me if I had a preference for anything in the bowl, so I got loads of garlic - my favourite! That's the first time someone has asked me in any Nando's branch and I thought it was a really nice touch.
Overall the place wasn't very busy so it was clean, nothing bad but nothing special. It wasn't busy so food came very fast - less than 10 minutes wait and Customer service was amazing, I don't remember the 2 girls names but the door girl was tall, dark skin and very poofy curly hair and the till girl had straight blue/green hair
