Tried the new WATFORD branch today for the 1st time and I must say that it serves amazing food ....
The Piri Piri wings are really juicy and the chicken n rice are the best
The most important thing is the staff there are very polite and welcoming , the manager is doing a great job by looking after the customers and making sure everything goes perfectly
keep it up
Will def recommend every one to try n will be back
Ironically for a chicken joint this place hands down served me the best, most tasty beef burger that I have had in all my 42 years, the macho burger was incredible! The piri piri chicken is very good too.
Best chicken shop ever! Always fresh and nice,and the staff is very nice also! The croydon one is the best!
its my best place to eat here best test i usualy go there with my whole family
Good place, good people, good food. Not too crowded, service is quick, even with a queue. I ate there once, then I kept going ever since. haha
Best chicken i have ever tasted. I am currently recommending this to all my friends.
Absolutely love this place all food is 5 star ❤ better than nandos
Was big fan of wings n chips...missing in Nepal wish was one in Nepal. .
Seriously you have to try the mango and lime wings... Ok back to the food.

Great place for chicken lovers and grilled meat
Simple place with casual seating space
Ambiance - 3/5
Nothing much to talk about casual seating place with a seating space fr 40 odd. Ample enough lighting
Food -4/5
The food in here is really good
Tried the grilled chicken and chips
The grilled chicken is marinated well and cooked to perfection
The spices are just right
The chips are fresh and crispy
Then comes chicken rice
Surprisingly this one is worth giving it a try
The rice is steamed one with simple flavour added to it and grilled boneless chicken chunks and some gravy topped over
The usp is the gravy topped over the chicken and rice this enhances the taste .
Service - 4/5
The staff are polite and their service is quick too
VFM 4/5
A sheer value for money and it’s a steal deal
The prices are nominal are not too heavy on ones pocket
Do give it a try .
A great local place for me - food is generally quite good and it's consistent. Most of the staff are friendly even though they have to put up with lots of unnecessary attitude from the local riff raff and wildlife , especially on Friday and Saturday evenings.
One request - please, please can you learn how to make your hand-made Rancho burger 'rare' or at least 'medium rare' - stop over cooking it and burning it.
Interior also needs to be kept cleaner and tidier in which case I would have rated it even higher. The manager/owner needs to be more hands on and be around more often to keep an eye on things.
The food is amazing and very addictive but the business is let down by the telephone etiquette. At first I though it was bad connection but the problem occurs 4/5 times. They frequently mix up my order because it feels like they are in a rush to get you off the phone. I was halfway through my order and 'he' put the phone down? I was in mid sentence? Doesn't make sense. Anyways apart from that I'd defo recommend !
Two words, really good. Wouldn't recommend the bread-crumbed stuff as you can get that anywhere and its bad for you (probably still tastes good, haven't tried it from Rios) but their grilled chicken is just incredible. Establishment has a fresh and most importantly, hygienic atmosphere, food is quick and if you ring them before going they can have it done in 10-20 minutes depending on what you order. I love you Rio's
I haven't tried any of the burgers but every time I take away from Rios, it's always either the fried chicken or the grilled chicken or one of those lovely wraps. The chicken always felt fresh and though I know it's fried from frozen, it doesn't have that ''frozen for several weeks' taste to it ... Feel like you guys marinate the meat well. Interiors are a bit boring and has a take out feel to it, but that's not going to stop me from coming back!
Best taste of all similar piri piri restaurants.
1. The Food tastes Great
2. Plenty of choice on the menu
2. The Hygiene rating is good
3. Better taste than Nando's at reduced cost
4. Excellent customer service
Hands down the best chicken shop i've ever been to - and i've been to a lot! If you've been to Croydon you'll know there aren't many great HALAL places to grab a meal, but Rio's has changed all that. There is so much variety to choose from, including different flavours and buns. They also have a really cute kids meal option which comes in their own little animal box (like a Happy Meal). The shop itself is very clean, quirky and spacious. On average a meal costs about £5 but it's well worth it for the quality and flavour! The staff are extremely friendly and helpful.
I would highly recommend the Rodeo meal!
Not your regular chicken and chip shop. its spacious, clean and delicious. It has enough space for you to sit and have a meal inside. Situated near the Croydon shopping mall and at a 2 minute walking distance from the Croydon library. Perfect for a quick snack on your revision or shopping break.
Rio's Piri Piri offers a variety of options varying from burgers, wraps and pitta breads with chicken or lamb fillings. It is known for its grilled chicken and huge portions sold at a reasonable price. My personal favourite is their chicken wrap served with garlic sauce. Very filling and full of flavour.
On average, a meal for 2 people would cost around £10.
I would recommend everyone to pay Rio's Piri Piri a visit and discover their favourite meals for themselves.

My kids love Rio's and so do I, There garlic dip and peri fries are to die for !!I love their drinks too mango one reminds me of one from back home and ofcourse its HALAL
Despite being a Piri Piri restaurant, I'd have to say Rios spicy southern fried chicken is hands down the best SFC in South London.
Having tried many of their competitors non come close.
Great team working there too!
Best chicken shop in South London. Their delivery range and service is mid though.
The piri piri grilled chicken is great. This place is great for takeout. Good value. The dining space is what you'd expect of a chicken shop.
Rio's Piri Piri Croydon is another good place for chicken!
It was interesting that I saw them get delivery from Roosters.
Anyway, their choice is amazing and they now have this new MExicana burger which is tasty and tangy.
the 'hand made' Rio Rancho beef burger is one of the best things on the menu (when it's available).
highly recommended.
I really wish they kept the place a little cleaner.
They missed item all the time other than that food is perfect
Just checked prices they increase prices too much also quality of food decrease on the name of cost of living they are taking a piss whole chicken 17.99 wow you can get more than 4 chicken and cook at home
Lovely food. Sometimes wings can be dry but if I call up & ask for extra sauce on the wings, it’s never an issue.
Lovely food and service
Excellent fastfood. Chicken with rice is tasty, both fried chicken and grilled chicken is a nice option. Definitely try it. Had a fresh food experience.
Only downside was priority given to online orders then walk-in customers. Bit of a wait, otherwise great.
