The chicken was juicy and well spiced. Their portion of fries was large and satisfying. However, I feel like I waited for my order longer than I expected.
i was really impressed by their chick n rice, i chose the extreme sauce and it blew my head off! so spicy but really enjoyed it. The chips was also nice. Customer service is really nice and friendly and the seating area was nice and clean. the prices i guess are reasonable too.
The first restaurant I visited after landing from Toronto. Was suggested to me by a friend who lives in the UK. I got the half peri-peri chicken extreme flavour. The food blew away my expectations. It was very spicy just what I wanted!
Coming from Toronto we often visit grilled chicken places like Nandos. Unfortunately most restaurants in Toronto fail to understand and deliver spicy flavours. I go to Nandos and get the extra hot every time but I have to repeat the same instructions (extra hot sauce, extra baste, etc.) and still it fails to meet expectations and it is never spicy enough. Every restaurant I go to its the same story, no spice no flavour.
This was not the case for Pepes. All I had to say was extreme and they delivered. I ended up purchasing a bottle of extreme sauce. I usually take a bottle of nandos extra hot sauce everywhere. This will be my replacement for the next few weeks and I can have a bit of Pepes everywhere I go. Then I unfortunately will have to go back to my usual nandos sauce.
Hoping one day Pepes will come to Toronto too (if you do come please don't downgrade your spicy standards, extreme should stay extreme even if people are unable to eat it there are lots of people like me who can).
