Banana Leaf Restaurant

Let me start off by saying that the staff was very polite and helpful! The food was also amazing! We got the Tom Yum Soup, pineapple rice, black pepper chicken, and Optum Tofu. Very well balanced with spices. The restaurant was very clean and well set. It was busy, but understandable because the overall restaurant experience was amazing!

It was our first time here and we loved the food. Warm hosts and great ambience. The only thing that I didn’t like was that the tables were a little too close to each other. Apart from that, delicious food and a great experience. All of us were vegetarians and we legit were heavy after trying out such different options. The food quantity varied in each dish. A couple didn’t feel enough but the rest of them were good. Highly recommend checking this place out. Do reserve a table as this place is pretty busy.

I recently visited the restaurant and ordered the Vegan Nasi Goreng, but I received pineapple fried rice with cauliflower and raisins instead. Although the restaurant was empty, we were seated next to the restroom, which was not ideal. Additionally, they didn’t ask for my preferred spice level. Despite these issues, my husband really enjoys the food and this place, which is why he brought me here. Unfortunately, I regret the visit.

Very popular restaurant, some dishes are better than others but flavors fall a bit short of Malaysia imo. Mixed satay takes a while but is grilled quite well. The roti is a little too crisp and papery on the edges. The char kway teow was tasty but could have had a bit more wok hei. The kangkung with belacan is a generous portion and not too funky. The beef rendang lacked a bit of depth and beef was perhaps a little too tender to the point of shredding. The assam pomfret was decent tasting but on the bony side. Skip the Kueh dessert, it's not right at all.

Good Parking, But Poor Value and Service Needs Improvement ​Overall Rating: 2.5/5 (Okay for a one-time try, but not returning) ​We made a reservation for four people several hours in advance (4:00 PM for a 7:00 PM sitting) and found the telephone booking process smooth and efficient. Another significant positive was the ample parking available in the shared lot—always a plus. ​Ambiance and Seating (3/5) ​While we were seated immediately upon arrival, the table provided was unfortunately in a high-traffic area, right next to the kitchen and employee station. For a reserved party, this was a disappointing location, making it difficult to enjoy the meal as we felt constantly in the way. I highly recommend that management prioritize giving reserved guests quieter, better-located seating areas
