The simplicity of their menu ensures that every dish is executed with precision and passion, making the chicken the undisputed star of the show.
But it's not just the flavors that make Piri Piri Frango stand out. Its proximity to the iconic Gran Vía makes it a convenient pit stop for tourists and locals alike. Whether on a sightseeing spree or simply craving a hearty meal, this eatery promises a gastronomic experience that's both satisfying and easy on the wallet.
