"It’s honestly BEEN such a LONG TIME, since I’ve had good grilled food. This shop has genuinely amazed me. Friday night decided to order from here on deliveroo since their meals cost £7 each. Was very happy with portion size! Their grilled chicken burger is 10/10. Look at the pictures attached, the sauce dripping from the burger and the grilled chicken patty within is SO BIG. I also ordered a quarter chicken which was the size OF A HALF CHICKEN. It was full of sauce and was dripping absolutely 10/10. I enjoyed it so much, I had to order again. Will be ordering again."

"Had an exceptional experience at Rio’s Peri Peri Tooting Bec — the chicken was fresh, juicy, and full of flavour. Big shoutout to brother Ali for his outstanding customer service and impeccable manners. He was friendly, professional, and made us feel genuinely welcome from start to finish. Service like that really stands out — a real credit to the shop. Highly recommend and will definitely be back!"

"The food was absolutely delicious! I ordered a double cheese burger meal with a drink and a fried chicken burger , with corn on the cob . The corn was fresh , the burger both of them were fresh ! The fries were perfect and crispy ! And the sauces were amazing ! Which makes it even more tastier is the fact that the sauces are home made ! The garlic sauce and chilli sauce were outstanding! I even got a complimentary apple pie . I asked for 2 sauces because I didn’t have enough money to get more and they gave me 5 sauces extra. I really enjoyed my food ! Probably the best chicken shop in Tooting ! Thank you for an amazing food experience! I will definitely be ordering from here again ! 10 out of 10"

"Fantastic Food and Fantastic Service! Went as a group and we ordered a variety of things 1. Chicken salad - I was surprised to see that the salad was actually more than just lettuce tomatoes and cucumber. It had olives feta cheese peppers very delicious and refreshing 2. Chicken and rice - the rice was very well seasoned and the portion size was very generous 3. Chicken wrap - The chicken wrap did not disappoint the ratio of chicken to salad to sauce along with the toasted tortilla bread worked perfectly together 4. Chicken wings - Can’t go wrong with the wings juicy fresh and flavourful Overall the chicken was soft and tender which is a struggle to find these days. I was definitely surprised in a good way. The staff went above and beyond to make my experience as enjoyable as possible and I really appreciated this. Will be coming back for sure"
