We had a lot of expectation from Barcelos and it did not dissappoint us at all.
The location is very apt as it is located in the food court of One Awadh Centre. Can easily be spotted with decent amount of space and seating. The ambience is very decent and good with some soothing numbers playing.
We ordered for Espalanadas, cheese poppers, grilled chicken tikka and pastas.
Espalanadas we something different with spinach and corn stuffings and it tasted good and different.
The cheese poppers had to be good as it had cheese. But they cooked it really well and made it taste really awsome.
The grilled chicken tikka was our favourite for the evening as it had just the right amount of flavours and spices. Cooked to perfection with really soft from inside.
The pasta tasted average.
The service was good and fast. The staff were very attentive and helpful. Had an overall good experience.
Its one of the finest mexican restaurants in the city of nawabs located at cinepolis mall its one hell of a place the sauces are mind blowing and the food is literally drooling you can visit this place as many times u want without getting bored
Great food, staff ppl r humble and nice, combos HV good choice, sit ,n hangout WID frd's for hours, nice ambience ...,
Still can add some snacks.......but overall loved it

If you are looking for a refreshing menu with a lively ambience, then this is the place to look for.
Visited twice so far and had a great time with family.
1. Their signature black bun burger is a must have item, so do not miss it. Veg patty was crunchy and thick with proper sauces.
2. Thin veg crust pizza was ok ok, nothing special about it.
3. Stir fried veg rice bowl was great and trust me, they provide amazing quantity in that.
4. Tacos was another show stopper here, the wrap was of fine quality and the filling was very good.
5. Pasta was above average, can have once but won't recommend it for 2nd time.
6. Veg sizzler was awesome! Highly recommended.
7. French fries were also very crispy and tasty. Kids loved it.
8. The big let down was cream of mushroom soup, not even a single piece of mushroom was present . Only a hint of mushroom was there.
Though their menu's majority is non veg food and will definitely visit again soon to taste that.
P. S : They serve chilled beer and other liquors too and installed big tv screen as well. A perfect place to hangout, chill and watch world cup matches right now :)
The restraunt is on the food court of one awadh mall in a corner..Its a very cozy & inviting place amidst the loud and busy food court atmosphere..
The ambience is simple yet classy...
Food..is awsome..we tried quite a few dishes and everything from flavour to presentation was on point.Not asingle dish was disappointing..The staff is super courteous and attentive...I am impressed.
I really recommend this place and will myself return to try other dishes.(we over ate already🙈)
Cheers!

FOOD Review
Barcelos India, One awadh mall
Barcelos Lucknow
It is very very rare that a multinational chain opens up in Lucknow after starting off from Delhi and Mumbai.
#HISTORY- So, #Barcelos opened its first store in Pretoria, South Africa in 1993. Using recipes mastered by the Portuguese hundreds of years ago, their flame grilled flavours became so popular that they franchised the business in 1998. Since then they have opened outlets in 21 countries including India
The Barcelos brand is famous for its flame-grilled peri peri menu and has carved a niche for itself by introducing it to the discerning foodies with their own brand of innovation. It's menu offers mixed cuisines from different countries like Portugese, Mexican, italian, Spanish, American and more.
The Black Burger is the best-selling product of Barcelos F&B offerings in India. It has revolutionised the concept of ‘burger’ in India by presenting it in different colours.
#VISIT- So we visited Barcelos Lucknow few days a back and got amazed to see this type of international place in town😍
Here is a quick Summary-
#AMBIANCE- Situated at 4th floor of One awadh mall(Cinepolis) the place welcomes you with wonderful international ambiance. Nicely done decor with a rustic feeling, has 3 sections of seating including Bar and the corner one is going to be the most coveted one with the walls painted. Seating is comfortable and lights are dim.
#FOOD- Each table is provided with four peri peri sauces- Tangy lemon, Mild Peri, Veri Peri and Supa peri named after the spice quotient of the sauce. The sauces are imported from South Africa. The veg dishes are marked by Green flag in it while Non veg comes with Red Flag.
- MOCKTAILS-We experienced some wonderful innovative food starting with drinks in various flavours like Blue current and Mint blast In the main course.
- BURGER SLIDERS-The burgers for which the place is famous is a must try. All the burgers come in vegetarian and non vegetarian options.offering red, black and white burger where the colours of the burger buns are made with natural colours and are an off shoot of spinach, cocoa or beet root
- CHICKEN ESPATADA- wow factor’ is their signature dish of Chicken Espatada.Where the chicken skewers are served hanging with sliced bell pepper and onions with a side of your choice and complimentary rice and gravy.
- ITALIAN STALLION SANDWICH- A heaven for cheese lovers, the sandwiches are just wow.
- SHELL TACOS- filled with juicy filling, the veg taco was amazing. It had beans veggies and sauces complimented by rice and Rajma.
- PERI PERI CHICKEN- Another signature dish for people who love spicy food. It is must have .
- CHEESE BALL POPPERS- my favourite from this place since it's light and loaded with cheese. One of the best cheese balls in town.
You get a lot of fusion items in their menu. So if you are looking for a place which offers different food and international cuisines this is a place to go. Portions served are very good. You can expect the prices to be around 1000-1200 for 2 people. They also deliver from Swiggy and Zomato.

The first impression you get when you enter is how similar this is to the more popular Nando's chain. The question then arises, will this live up to the expectations that that creates?
It definitely does, and more. The one in the One Awadh mall has a really attentive manager. Also, this is definitely less crowded. The nice ambience really sets the right now for the main attraction, the food.
The food is great, really fresh, with distinct flavours that do not overpower each other.
Definitely recommend.

Some knock out food and great music is what barcelos serve. Truly amazing and scrumptious food! We ordered a Mexican rice bowl, veg fajitas and for dessert a sizzling brownie. Everything was on on point perfect! Do check 'em out!
Barcelos was on my go-to list for the longest time ever!
The place has a very cozy vibe and the ambience is pretty good!
The menu is quite similar to that of Nando's.
We tried their pizza, mild peri chicken wings and the grilled chicken meal.
The place for sure is must visit as the dishes offered are quite unique and one of a kind in Lucknow.
The food is priced moderately and Is definitely worth the money!
The service was amazing but they can definitely improve upon the food quality!
The ambience, the food, everything is just perfect. Loved the Peri Peri chicken chunks, fish fingers and crispy prawns. A must try for seafood lovers.

Nice and modern restaurant with a relaxing vibe. Me and wife came together to this place to enjoy a quick bite. Being a Zomato gold partner with a high rating, this restaurant was an obvious choice for us.
We ordered 2 items from the menu Dip or Dunk and Veg Empanadas. For our Dip or Dunk, we chose Hummus along with Pita bread. I wanted to try Guacamole as well but it wasn't available and took Roasted Pepper Dip instead.
I had a acquired taste for Mediterranean food from my previous encounters with this cuisine. I would say that I have eaten authentic pita bread with hummus and other middle eastern dips. Unfortunately, the pita bread in this place was not very authentic and looked more like a naan. I was impressed by Hummus and Roasted Pepper Dip. They had a nice texture and good taste.
Empanadas for desi people is nothing but gujiyas stuffed with vegetables. The Empanadas here had a crispy outer layer with a tasty inner filling. Inside it had a filling of beans, spinach, onions and corn.
The service at this place was good and servers are calm. Overall, a must go place if you are visiting One Awadh mall and in a mood to try something new.

Good restaurant. Perfect for couples. Must try. Good privacy
Particularly the paav bhaji and paneer Tikka were a sediment. Loved the aura and ambience
A nice place for foodie like me. They offer a whole range of lip smacking starters. Everything is quite nice about this place. A must go place especially with family.
A good place to go with family and friends. Had a great time there . they have good ambience and the food is also good as i ordered black barbeque chicken burger and chicken ceaser salad which was good.
Everything was good...we were really impressed with the quantity of food......even we got a free mocktail(nd we loved it)..regarding taste...it was better than average...nd yes...very friendly staff..
One of the most amazing food joints in Lucknow, offering a unique platter. Situated in One awadh mall, so you don't have issues in parking. This place offers the best of South American and Mexican food.
Coming to the food. I've had some of the most unique dishes at Barcelos and I must say each was yummy. Here is what all I have tried - espetada, mint blast mocktail, slider platter and bbq chicken wings. Each of them is awesome in taste and seriously leaves u wanting more. The espatada is like a meal for 2 while the slider platter is good for 3 to 4 people.
Must try place...
This is a Great place to hangout with friends and family, the staff here is very kind and polite and the place serves amazing food with good ambience.
Yesterday we went there.. after seeing Aquaman at cinepolis we were craving for good food..I was searching nearby zomato gold restaurants and barcelos poped out.. barcelos is in their food court only.. classy decorations with wooden sitting arrangements.. we ordered black burger and quarter chicken with Peri Peri sauce.. both were amazing.. staffs are very polite..we liked it..want to go again there
Finally there's a restaurant in Lucknow that serves something different, than all the other up and coming cafes, which becomes necessary for standing out.
It has a nice interior and there's no overcrowding so one can have a reallynice time.
Coming to the food, we tried the Peri Peri Grilled Chicken, which was delicious. The chicken was juicy and succulent, we ordered frwnch fries and garlic breads on the side, which were pretty awesome too. We also tried the Chicken Espetada which was on a league of it's own!
All in all, a must visit! 👍🏻👍🏻
Visited twice. Enjoyed chicken dishes - peri peri. Chicken, pita gyros & chicken chunks with side dishes mixed grilled veggies & Mexican rice as also party meal on the other occasion. Excellent food, ambeyance and service. Would like to visit again.
Located in Awadh city centre mall. Ambiance is good. We had peri peri chicken sizzler, burger platter and fish starter. Fish starter was really good. Service is quick.
Very friendly staff if you are here ask for Shashikant he was really helpful today!! Amazing Food, nice ambiance...if you are here do try the Fajitas
We had a Very good sizzller with grilled vegetables, pasta and rice bowl .
Very good suggestions from service staff.
It was good experience.
I love this place because of nice ambience , courteous staff and delicious food.
The sizzlers are mouth watering ,
Flame grilled chicken,
If you are a foodiee you must visit this place for its delicacy ,
Must visit place for having enchiladas. Nice hangout in food court of one Awadh mall. Must try is the signature dish fiery grilled chicken. The side sauces are a cherry on the top.

Ambience: 3.5/5
Service: 5/5
Food: 4/5
Price: 4.5/5
We ordered: a Mexican Rice Bowl, Fresh Pineapple Juice, Flame Grilled Quarter Chicken Signature Dish.
I loved the fact that our servers were well aware of the menu, the ingredients and quantities. He even gave us suggestions that were exactly what we were looking for (rather than the usuals that most restaurants train their servers to talk about).
Both meals were quite good in quantity, so much so that we could not finish either of those.
I opted for a Grilled Vegetable side dish with the chicken. They asked for my preference of sauce as well (Very Peri was what I went with).
The chicken was well cooked, served with some Portuguese rice (which had a strong aroma of turmeric and herbs). The grilled vegetables stole the show; sauteed in butter and garlic, they were fresh and crunchy! They did not shy away from serving ALL exotic veggies like Zucchini, Bell peppers, Broccoli. I loved it!!!
Coming to the rice bowl, it was as flavorful, served with kidney beans, veggies, cottage cheese, sour cream and nachos. It was a yummy veg treat!! The sour cream and salad were both fresh and the nachos were crisp.
All in all, it was a wonderful experience, considering we randomly dropped in for a quick bite.
Barcelos The Flame Grill as the name says this place is all about grilled food and is a must visit for non veg lovers.
.
.
They serve great sizzlers. Peri Peri Grill Chicken is one of their speciality. They even serve tasty veg food but our personal favourite and highlight for this restaurant was Nonveg Food. They have an amazing menu which has Mexican Italian and Continental Cuisine.
.
.
So if you love grilled nonveg then you must visit this place for you once .
Had recently visited Barcelos and it's gotten to be one of my favorite places in Lucknow. I love the interiors of the place. Vibrant and lively. Comfortable seating, quick service makes the experience even better. The Quantity of the food is amazing. There were 3 of us and we had ordered Crunchy chicken wings, chicken liver, mexican rice bowl, mocktails and they food was sufficient for at least 5 people. Just loved the portion size. The taste was bang on, flavorful and delicious. A must visit place.
Had wonderful lunch there yesterday. Must try Peanut butter banana shake. Special thanks to Bhanu Pratap Singh for helping us have an awesome lunch.
Amazing food and ambience and the waiters were very polite and attentive 🙂 had a great time with my friend here.. the food tastes really well and the quantity of the food is also very nice and I definitely loved the virgin Mojito ❤️
This place is a must visit
It is located at the food court of cinepolis mall/ one awadh mall..
Good staff they greet us so well.. loved the food nd ambience is beautiful. Come and enjoy Ur evening with the pizza nd brownies ❤️❤️ the village barcelos ... Overall excellent experience..
Ambience is awesome... Staff is well behaved and always wear smile... Food taste is very good specially for their signature dishes... I was served by Shashikant.. he was very humble...
Very nice food and one of its kind in Lucknow..the staff is very friendly and the service is very good.food served here is very fresh and they have good complimentary offers too.
Loved the food here at Barcelos. Ordered quesadilla, Tacos, and tangy mango. Food tasted great and the portion size was food too. Amazing service.
Food at Barcelos defines great mexican food.
We tried:
Veg quessadila: amazing preparation and presentation.
The filling was delicious and the portion size is to much! Delicious taste.
Cottage cheese tacos: Amazing presentation again. The tacos were fresh, tasted amazing and again the quantity was great too.
Mocktails: Tangy Mango and Mint Blast which were also very refreshing.

Finally, after a usual hectic college routine, I got time to go out for lunch to check out this new place. As a Chicken lover, I was very keen to visit Barcelos since the time I heard that it is now opened in Lucknow!
So, by not wasting any of my weekend time further, I decided to visit this place, which is opened at One Awadh Center Mall, for lunch with my friend.
The ambience here was really cool and nice.
Since this is a South African chain and is famous for its variety of amazing Chicken Wings, for me, it became quite mandatory to order one.
So we went ahead by ordering BBQ Chicken Wings, Trio Chicken Wings Meal & Classic Neapolitan Chicken pasta.
There were these 4 different varieties of Peri Peri Sauces placed on our table and all were lovely, especially the Lemon one and I would honestly recommend anyone who goes here, to definitely try these.
Now coming back to my order:
BBQ Chicken Wings: American styled Chicken Wings glazed with Barcelo’s house-made BBQ sauce, served with Peri Mayo. These wings were amazing! The Sesame seeds sprinkled on the wings and the saucy taste of the Chicken was great. I loved this dish.
Trio Chicken Wings Meal: Whole Chicken wings grilled in a tangy peri peri sauce, served with French Fries, peri peri mayo and a house salad. These wings were non-saucy unlike BBQ wings, but the Peri Peri taste could be felt while having it. The Peri Peri mayo was really good along with the Fries, yet making this another good dish.
Classic Neapolitan Chicken pasta: Penne pasta in Tomato sauce. The best thing I liked about this pasta was that the chicken was very fulfilling as they had been shredded wonderfully. This helped the flavour of the sauce to be tasted in the chicken also. It’s very rare to see or have a Pasta like this, especially in Lucknow, where Chicken Chunks are generally used instead of shredded one. Really Amazing!
One more thing, as this place is a Zomato Gold partner, you can get 1+1 on Food, if you are a Zomato Gold user (Like me!)
So make sure to use this Gold service ;)
CONCLUSION-
Food: 4/5
Ambience: 4/5
Service: 4/5 (it was nice!)
Total Experience: 4/5
If you are a Chicken lover, then this place is for you and it’s a must visit! I would love to visit Barcelos more often from now on. But why? Well, just for their amazing Chicken Wings. :D
Barcelos is an awesome place to be with your family and friends. Cuisine is really delicious and offers a lots of variety. Staff is very courteous. Awesome burgers and their peri peri sauce are amazing...Excellent service by #shashikant...
Very nice experience
Burger is very juicy loved it
Chicken finger was also good
This is my 2nd visit and I love this place
Must visit atleast once
Where do you get the best grilled chicken in the town? Now the answer is sorted. Barcelos. A Portuguese fine dine restaurant with peppy, urban comfortable seating. The lighting is the centre of attraction.
We ordered
1.Flame Grilled Peri Peri Chicken in mild sauce (which was accompanied by portuguese rice, cucumber salad and a dip.
2. Espatadas. Succulent chicken pieces served on a tall, hung skrewer. Again served with rice and other condiments.
3. Sauted veggies and garlic bread came as sides.
Both the chicken were juicy to the bone sbd perfectly grilled. Cant get any better. Sauted veggies and garlic bread were the best i have had in lucknow.
Absolutely courteous, well trained staff made the meal more enjoyable.
The icing on the cake was the Hot Sizzling Brownie which, surprisingly, came complimentary।
Overall an extremely satisfying meal. Highly recommended.
Very eye appealing as well as nice food. Service is good. Bhanu was very attentive and helpful. All the best team. Hope you go for the liquor license soon 😉 keep up the good work 👍
Nice place and food is good. Staff was courteous and friendly. Service was efficient and prompt! The dishes served are presented will and authentic! Keep up the good work.

Great experience at Barcelos. Food was really good.
Good varieties of Mexican food available.
A must visit restaurant. Great service by Bhanu Pratap Singh.
New restaurant opened at Cinepolis mall, visited yesterday and had cottage cheese sizzler with fresh water melon and orange juice. Sizzler served with rice and extra veggies, it was very tasty and they served fresh juices. Mexican food dishes is the main attraction of the menu and they have introduced the new concept of various sauces. You can customise your food with the same. Worth trying. Seating arrangement was good and comfortable as well . Design of chairs was unique and interiors of the cafe was also good.
Amazing, amazing and amazing! One of the best restaurants which has opened in Lucknow! It’s equivalent to Nando’s and if not dare I say much better. It’s definitely in the top 3 restaurants for me. Great and delicious food and a good ambience. If you are a non vegetarian you need to check out this place asap. Sadly it’s not really vegetarian friendly. Everything we ordered was scrumptious.
You have to check out this place and see for yourself
! ❤️
Great ambience, nice grilled chicken and prawns. Quick service. Polite staff. Great experience! Would like to visit again soon to try out the rest if the menu..
Hi Lucknowites, :-) my very first visit to Barcelos!! I am really that I came to our city Lucknow. Inside it’s a nice sitting area, talking about food I had (BBQ chicken wings, - it was smokey and chunks of chicken wings) ( Empanadas was something new for to try it had vegetables filling inside, this is must try) ( Crispy Fish Black Burger with fries was good too the fish patty was deep fried & taste really good) for drink I had ( Kiwi Cooler - must hv it was very refreshing) overall good experience, Service is quick and courteous staff. Best wishes to BARCELOS team :-) thank you!
A great place to have a quick lunch with peaceful ambience and yeah. The peri peri sauces are the specialty of the place. I tried the Peri Peri chicken wing with traditional Portuguese rice and tomato Curry and it tastes awesome with the variety of Peri Peri sauces alongside they serve you side dishes also with a free mocktail if u check-in and review them
Very good service.. Signature dishes r worth trying.. Lots of combo offers suitable for big parties.. Calamari overcooked and rubbery. Bt prawns and chicken to die for.. Didn't get to try the dessert and pizza menu, bt looking forward to it next time..
Offers the most unique cuisine in lucknow. A major addition to the Lucknow food culture. The place is amazing. Ambience,servie and ofcourse without any doubt the food is amazing. Such variety. A must visit
This is exactly what Lucknow was missing from a long time. Finally some new cuisines in Lucknow. The food here is fantastic. The staff is really friendly and the ambience is amazing. I had their famous peri peri black burger and it was really something. Never tasted something like this before. Excited to try new stuff next time.
Now this is something that Lucknow was eagerly waiting for. The interiors are beautifully done. Excellent hospitality. Staff were very friendly. And the food was lip smacking. We had black burger (southern chicken). They had a variety of peri peri sauces. Shrimp was a bit light but it was cooked very well. This place just took my heart. Will visit again.
Mouthwatering food with great hospitality and the complimentary snacks made our day !! Highly recommended to those who are in love with cheese !!
I loved veri peri and tangy lemon sauce they served. Food nd view both were good but a bit pricey not enough in quantity Service is very good staff is really friendly
Amazing mexican food.
Very gud quality authetic taste and awesome presentation.
For the first time in lucknow we had calamari fish.
All the very best
Barcelos is a new outlet in Cinepolis, Lucknow that serves Mexican, Italian and Spanish...we tried appetisers..Southwestern rolls and coconut shrimps were good...Bruschetta was OK..staff is courteous and service quick.. recommended for those who love Italian and Mexican..
Food 3.5/5
Service 5/5
Ambience 4/5
Value for money 3.5/5
Amazing interiors. Very high end . Positive vibes all across. No place is there in town to match this place. Food is again awesome and next level. Most of the dishes are new in town. Peri peri chicken, black burger and pastas and appetizers are to due for. Must visit
Awesome food i had.
Chicken wings and prawns were fabulous.
Definitely a must go go.
Keep up the taste.

Good place with nice ambience and great food taste.
The restaurant is located in the food court of one avadh mall mall. The restaurant’s best dishes are its signature dishes of chicken steak and grilled chicken both prepared in veri-peri sauce. Their burgers are also worth trying. The menu is elaborate with Mexican food choices like fajitas and tacos too. Drinks are also served in the restaurant. Try the cocktails menu, if you don’t usually do it, it’s good. Also with the main signature dishes you get complimentary sides too, which makes them a complete dish, generally sufficient for 2.
Good food, good bar, with nice music
Ambience : Lovely place to hangout with family and friends. Well decorated according to the theme.
Food : tasty and delicious
Staff: Good service and courteous, acknowledges the problem fast enough
Location : Easily accessible inside the mall.
The food is amazing but they take their time so I would recommend this place if you want to hangout and have plenty of time. It's not suitable if you are really hungry and want to grab a bite as soon as possible plus the food is expensive but totally worth it.
Its very good beautiful n its tastes also awesome so delicious food n theirs waiters also polite behavior person Bhanu pratap singh
Good place to sit and hangout. The bar has a lot of options and the food is also good. Totally recommend it !
Good to see Barcelos finally in Lucknow. it offers great Peri Peri chicken with variery of Sauses and sides.
Excellent food, ambeyance and service. Would like to visit again.
Bhanu u were a great server. Keep up the good work...
Great ambience, excellent staff particularly waiter shashikant.
I love this place because of very good Portuguese food and ambience
Awesome place, expensive but delicious food.
