Nando’s opens its first Casa in Pune

Nando’s has made its debut in Pune with the opening of its first Casa at Phoenix Marketcity Mall, Viman Nagar. Casa – meaning “home” in Portuguese – is what Nando’s calls its restaurants, and the new venue promises to bring the brand’s signature fiery flair to the city.

Known worldwide for its bold PERi-PERi flavours, Nando’s has been delighting diners across Delhi, Bengaluru, Chennai, Punjab, Hyderabad and Mumbai, and is now ready to serve Punekars the unforgettable experience they have long awaited.

“Pune is a city rich in culture, creativity and a serious love for food,” said Sameer Bhasin, CEO, Nando’s India. “We’ve felt the excitement from Punekars, who have been visiting us in other cities in India and abroad for a long time, and now we’re ready to serve the bold, unforgettable flavours they’ve been waiting for. We’re proud to bring our PERi-PERi experience to Pune, and Phoenix Marketcity is the perfect place to begin.”

All of Nando’s bastings, marinades and sauces are made with fresh, real ingredients and are free from artificial flavours and colourants. True to its global signature, the chicken is flame-grilled to enhance flavour, with guests able to customise their meal’s heat level — from Mild to Extra Hot — to suit their palate.

In keeping with Nando’s distinctive brand personality, the new Casa is a celebration of modern African culture, featuring bold colours, handcrafted art, and the signature Afro-Luso beats that immerse guests in the heart and soul of Southern Africa.

With its Pune debut, Nando’s continues to expand its footprint across India, now serving its iconic flame-grilled PERi-PERi chicken in seven major cities and reinforcing its position as one of the country’s most exciting casual dining brands.
