About The Port of Peri Peri
Our story begins long ago, when Portuguese sailors took with them a souvenir plant after visiting the coast of Africa. A tiny pepper, called The African Bird’s Eye chili is also the star ingredient of our signature blends which gives our food a burst... More

Customer Reviews
All my cousins rave about Port of Peri Peri, and after my second or third time there, I can see why they love it. It’s a solid spot! What I really like is that you can customize your spice level—they’ve got a few ranges, from lemon herb to hot. I went with “hot” this time, and wow, it was way too spicy for me. But if you’re into spicy food, you’ll love it. If not, the milder options are still flavorful. I got the veggie burger, and it was actually really delicious! It’s not your typical veggie burger with cheese and condiments—it’s unique, and I’d definitely order it again. We also tried their fries, which were great, especially with all the sauces they have. Honestly, the sauces are a game-changer—they make everything taste better. We also got their salad, which was just okay, but again,
Ordered 24 wings today 11/8/25. When open the packing all the wings were very small pieces which r not regular size they serve. When called and complain they justified by saying that we have put extra pieces because we are giving small ones. I asked for refund which Mr. Abbas said we can’t do anything you can go online and let the bosses know. I want my refund when talked to Abbas about coming and returning the food he said we will not refund or replace it. Is that’s the way you treat ur regular costumer.
Great restaurant! Their chicken rice bowl is really good flavorful, fresh, and filling.
Wow! The chicken here is so delicious, juicy and the sauces are incredible! The people working there are just so kind! Thank you for serving the community quality food!
The Port of Peri Peri offers a decent take on Portuguese-inspired grilled chicken with that signature spicy kick, but it falls short of being a standout spot. The peri-peri sauce has a nice balance of heat and tang, and the chicken was juicy enough, though portions felt a tad skimpy for the price. Sides like the peri-peri fries and corn on the cob were flavorful but arrived lukewarm, which dulled the experience, and the ambiance is casual yet a bit cramped during peak hours. Service was friendly and prompt, making it a solid option for a quick meal if you’re in the mood for something zesty, but it doesn’t quite hit the heights of more authentic or polished competitors—worth a try, but not a repeat destination for me.
