Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Peri Peri Grill House is 100% certified halal at both our Brooklyn (Bed-Stuy) and Bethpage (Long Island) locations. All chicken and meat is sourced from halal-certified suppliers. This is non-negotiable for us — it's part of who we are and the communities we serve.

Peri peri chicken originated in Southeast Africa, where the African Bird's Eye chili — also known as piri piri — grows wild. Portuguese traders encountered the chili and the cooking tradition centuries ago, helping spread it across the world. At Peri Peri Grill House, we honor that tradition: our chicken marinates overnight in our own peri peri spice blend, then hits the open flame for that signature char and smokiness.

We offer 7 levels on our Peri Scale — all packed with flavor, not just heat:

1. 1 — Lemon & Herb: No heat. Bright, citrusy, herbaceous.
2. 2 — Mango Passion: No heat. Tropical sweetness with depth.
3. 3 — Garlic & Herb: No heat. Savory, aromatic, comfort-forward.
4. 4 — Jerk BBQ: Mild heat with smoky, sweet notes.
5. 5 — Mild: Gentle peri peri heat, accessible for everyone.
6. 6 — Hot: Real, satisfying heat with full peri peri flavor.
7. 7 — Extra Hot: Maximum flame. For serious chili lovers only.

Three things separate us from everywhere else:

1. 12+ hour overnight marinade. Our chicken sits in our peri peri spice blend overnight, not for 30 minutes. The flavor penetrates deep into the meat — you can taste the difference immediately.
2. Flame-grilled to order. Every piece goes over live fire. No oven. No fryer. The open flame creates a smoky char while the overnight marinade keeps the inside juicy.
3. NYT reviewed. The New York Times reviewed us in 2019 — not because we asked, but because the food speaks for itself.

Yes. Our vegetarian options include falafel burgers, falafel wraps, fresh salads, and a variety of sides including fries, rice, and more. Our peri peri sauces are also available on the side for dipping.
