Nando’s, the global casual dining sensation known for its legendary flame-grilled PERi-PERi chicken, has officially made its much-awaited debut in Pune. The brand opened its very first Casa Portuguese for “home” at Phoenix Marketcity Mall, Viman Nagar, bringing with it the signature heat, flavour, and vibrant culture that Nando’s fans love.

Pune Welcomes the Iconic PERi-PERi Experience

We’re proud to bring our PERi-PERi experience to Pune, and Phoenix Marketcity is the perfect place to begin.”

Fresh Ingredients, Flame-Grilled Goodness
