Rios Piri Piri

You're walking down Marlowes past the usual high street suspects when you spot the queues outside Rios. It's not accident—word travels fast when someone's doing flame-grilled chicken right. The menu's refreshingly straightforward: choose your bird (half or whole), pick your heat level, grab some sides. What sets it apart is the marinade work. This isn't generic piri piri slapped on for show; there's actual depth to the spicing, proper char on the skin, meat that's actually juicy. The casual setup means you're not paying through the nose for what you get. Roll with it as a quick bite or settle in with a crew—it works either way.
