Chilli Flames in Cardiff

Tastes good, but it can be better if they make the order faster

Worst food place in cardiff. Avoid. Agonising pain in my stomach after eating their food. And also had diarrhea. Avoid this place if you don't want diarrhea or anything

Not particularly bad but nothing particularly great either. If anything, it's a conveniently located and somewhat reasonably priced joint in the city centre if you maintain a halal-meat diet. See it as a Nando-lite for a few pounds less and arguably a bit quicker. I've been going here since opening in around 2018 and the experience has mostly remained the same.Food: First things first, on a recent visit I was served a raw, pink, ground beef burger. Pink all the way through, yes I'll repeat, pink ground beef - which is potentially very dangerous to consume when uncooked due to bacteria. It was busy at midday and I was limited with time on my lunch break so couldn't bring it to the staffs attention. I sadly threw the burger away.Onto the chicken, it's decent. The chicken strips can be a bit 'rubbery', but other than that, the whole piece chicken is good. Often times, and this is across almost everything on the menu, the sauce is very often quite watery with a more bitter/vinegary taste than spicy. It doesn't seem to stick onto anything like what a marinade should do. It gets in the way both in terms of mess if you're eating a burger, and generally in the way of flavour.To their credit, there is a fair amount on the menu to choose from. From burgers, wraps, salads, chicken pieces, it's good variety and there's also a decent number of sides to choose from too. Be warned that if you ask for peri fries you'll likely only receive a dusting of peri salt.Prices are okay, acceptable. I understand that inflation has affected everyone but I can't help but feel their prices are anywhere between 50p-£1 too dear, especially when buying a meal.There's not a great deal of single seating arrangements, which is a bother. You'll end up taking up at least 4 seats to yourself on one table if dining in solo which doesn't feel great when others are lining up with acquaintances. The premises is kept clean and nothing feels grubby, you can quite comfortably eat in, there's also a washing basin which is always well maintained and loaded with hand towels, so top marks here!Staff can seem a bit stressed and busy at midday and peak times so you'll have to anticipate them rushing your order and forgetting to ask things on your order like sides/eating in or takeout etc. Other than that staff are polite and prompt to help.Overall, if you've not yet tried chilli flames I'd recommend making a visit if you're in town. There's a good chance you'll enjoy it.

Found hair today,carless manager with aggressive attitude 👎🏻

Excellent succulent chicken and good Punjabi/Indian food.. Best Indian joint in City Centre.. Cardiff.

Absolutely adorable service. Four times consistently keeping track of how long before the food is cooked; if we are comfortable where we seated; how was the service once food is served and how the food was? I never saw anything like this before and I have seen PLENTY!!!Totally extraordinary

Great Halal food! Definitely worth of every single penny than Nandos

Had some very tasty and good price food here . Ordered the half chicken with two sides and coleslaw for £8.5 which i do recommend ! Was excellently made ! Halal . In the middle of town (high street) . Accessible toilet , eat in or takeout available . Also do delivery . All in all id go again and id recommend this place to others . Easy going staff and great food . Hot sauce has a beautiful taste . Thank you for a wicked meal and see you in the future .

Really enjoyed the food. Better than I expected. service was quick and on time. Chicken salad was filling, fresh and tasty.

Loved the chicken. It was so juicy and well-grilled. This place trumps Nandos for its grilled chicken. The hummous was surprisingly delicious as well. I often get food delivered from these guys but this was my first dining experience and what a meal! Thank you Chilli Flames.
