The new site may be on Olive Street by McKinney Avenue, according to a\u00a0filing with the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation,<\/a> which lists a renovation project at the address as “Nando\u2019s – Uptown.” The site is listed as a little over 2,000 square feet and would be the second Nando\u2019s location in D-FW, with the\u00a0first in Addison<\/a>. Construction could start in January 2027, according to the filing.<\/p>\n

A representative for Nando\u2019s declined to comment on the filing. Details in TDLR filings are preliminary and subject to change.<\/p>\n

Nando\u2019s menu is heavily influenced by the peri-peri pepper, a close relative of the tabasco pepper that ended up in South Africa by way of Portugal.<\/p>\n

Everything on the menu isn\u2019t spicy, however. Customers can choose their spice level from among sauces ranging from mild, or plain, to extra hot. The flame-grilled chicken is served with a variety of sides, including Portuguese rice, sweet potatoes, coleslaw and fries.<\/p>\n

Nando\u2019s Addison restaurant is located at 5100 Belt Line Road and features a wrap-around patio, a small bar area and art sourced from South African artists. It opened in December 2023, becoming the first Nando\u2019s in North Texas and the second in the state.<\/p>\n

The chain got its start nearly 40 years ago with its\u00a0first location in Johannesburg<\/a>, South Africa. Nando\u2019s made its U.S. debut in 2008, in Washington, D.C.<\/p>\n

The address for the Uptown location is listed as 2355 Olive Street #130 in the state filing.<\/p>\n
