    Pad Pahd Thai (Seafood) 太果條
    Natalie T.

    3.5/5 stars! Came here with a group of people to share family style so let's get into the foods I think is worth getting to share. Also I've noticed the spice levels here were pretty mild compared to other Thai/asian restaurants 8/10 pineapple fried rice; this was pretty good! We got the regular one and the spicy one, the spicy one wasn't that spicy, but the flavor profile was good overall 8/10 pad see ew, can't go wrong with this, had lots of veggies and a reasonable amount of protein ish, but I think this might have been my favorite dish out of all the ones I've tried 7.5/10 Satay Chicken, this was not bad, chicken was juicy and the sauce paired well with it, enjoyable skewer! 6/10 pad Thai, this was too sweet for my liking and the noodles were a bit overcooked, so they were a bit mushy 6/10 Black Pepper Chicken, never had this before but the black pepper sauce was a bit sticky for my liking, so didn't really eat too much of this 6/10 papaya salad, the papaya was cut too thick and long, the flavor and seasoning was lacking 6/10 mango black sticky rice, I will say the mango was juicy and sweet, I was just a little thrown off with the black rice, it wasn't sticky but it was more grainy

    Malay Sizzling Beef 鐵牛

    I've been searching for a good Malaysian Singaporean restaurant and I'm so glad to have stumbled upon Banana Leaf! This restaurant seems to be well-loved by the community for years, and it still seems that way as it was packed on a weekday dinner. The restaurant falls somewhere in the middle of casual and upscale. The portions here are huge and they have an extensive menu, so it's best to order family style. Huge plus for them having an extensive vegetarian menu as well! We ordered Roti Prata, Chicken Curry Laksa Mee, and Malay Sizzling Beef. Bold flavors! We mainly came here for the laksa, but we were impressed from everything we ordered. The roti was flakey and was nearly ordered at every table. The laksa had a rich and flavorful broth, though I wish it was spicier. The sizzling beef was peppery and delicious. Since the beef dish was saucy, we ordered rice on the side to balance its strong flavors. I'd come back and order these dishes again and definitely try other dishes!

    Banana Leaf is well loved in the family as we've been coming here for years. Safe to say, the food is just as good as we remembered and it is still a bumping spot! It gets really busy especially for dinner, so plan ahead to get on the Yelp waitlist or call in, but note they sometimes will close the phone waitlist. RECS: + Roti prata ($5.25) is a must, so light and flakey with a delicious curry + Pineapple fried rice ($18.25) is so well seasoned, it's been my personal favorite since I was a kid! + Singaporean black pepper prawns ($20.95) are so rich in flavor from the sauce, with plump prawns + Hainan chicken with rice ($17.25) is poached to perfection, paired with wonderful sauces and turmeric rice + Belachan kang kung ($18.50) is delicious! + Mango sticky rice ($12) is our favorite dessert item here, all the right textures and flavors

    Good food, uber quick service and casual indoor arrangement. The servers are attentive and responsive. The food is close to Malay cuisine and flavorful. I would go back especially for a quick meal at those lunch hours. At the same time, the menu is elaborate that you might want to visit with time in hand to try a few items at a go. Overall, a good place to visit to enjoy Malaysian cuisine.

    This was wonderful forgot the name

    Enjoyed our lunch today! Been here years before but for some reason today's lunch will have me come back. As usual this place was busy but we were seated right away. No menu scan the qr to see the menu. They no longer have lunch specials all ala cart. We ordered the Roti nice light crispy fluffy sauce was yummy as well. Basil fried rice on point as well as combination noodle curry dish(forgot the name of dish) love the sauce and noodle cooked perfectly not over done. Will be back to try more.

    We were originally going to eat at Shabuya but the wait was too long so we came here and I'm glad we did! We had a table of 8. Since they were so busy, they told us we only had an eating time of 1.5 hours which was fine by us. Our server came to us promptly to get started. All of the food came out pretty quickly. We started off with the roti prata and it was good! The roti was very flaky, I wish it was a bit thicker. Their coconut soup was delicious. The tom yum was very spicy and lacked depth. Their pad Thai and mi goreng noodles were the stars. The pineapple fried rice was terrible - super mushy and didn't taste like normal fried rice. Apparently it usually comes in an actual pineapple but it seems they ran out. The green curry was good, a bit spicy. The basil shrimp was also great. We ordered the eggplant and that didn't come out, but glad it didn't because we had too much food. The drinks were also okay - nothing outstanding. The white sangria was fruity but not strong at all. We told our waiter we were celebrating a birthday and he brought out a free cake slice with a candle, super sweet! Overall, the service was a stand out. The workers are amazing. Food comes out hot and fast, but some dish's are definitely lacking.

    Roti Prata
    Prem D.

    After long time we are here. Well crowded for a weekday dinner. Orderd Roti Prata fresh made and great tasting side. All the dishes we asked for extra spicy. Galangal soup was good, just that they had too many big chunks of vegetables particularly tomatoes contributing to the volume and they had added green thai chilli. Petfect except the quantity was less for even 3 people even though we ordered large and suppose to be for 4 people. Mee Goreng was tasty but did not get the extra spice it also had less quantity. Sizzling veggies were hot but not spicy nor did the flavor of pepper came through, but tasty though decent quantity but still less when compared to other places. Coconut rice ordered did not have any of the flavor coming through. Interior was dim and congested. Overall pricey, less food, but taste good.

    Pad See Ew (Seafood)

    Haven't been to Banana Leaf for many years and decided to come because I was craving their Roti Prata! Came for lunch right when they opened at 11:30am because I knew they could get really busy. Decor is pretty basic but warm; the booth we got was very comfortable. Service was very attentive and prompt. My friend and I ordered a Roti Prata and a Combination Satay (beef and chicken thigh) as appetizers; Nyonya Shaking Beef, a bowl of Coconut Rice, and Pad See Ew as main course; and then Black Sticky Rice with Mangoes for dessert. Their Roti Prata was excellent as usual, the curry sauce went perfectly well with the warm, fluffy, and crispy bread. The beef and chicken skewers in the satay were tender and juicy and perfectly grilled. Both entrees were really delectable and flavorful. Black Sticky Rice with Mangoes was a great conclusion to the meal. It was a delicious meal and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Prices are reasonable for the quality of food. Highly recommended!

    Banana Leaf has been a mainstay for my family and me close to 15 years! These are our favorites and we order them every time: - Rendang beef (hearty and warm for the winter) - Hainan chicken with turmeric rice (cool and refreshing in the summers) - Pineapple chicken fried rice - Roti prata (light and crispy with just a hint of sweetness - beloved by the kids!) Unfortunately with small kids, we don't eat out all that often, so I usually order to go. And they were so sweet - they even gave us a free dessert on the house this time. I hope they stick around forever because the food is so good!

    Roti is the best
    Rose C.

    Banana Leaf is one of our "go to" places for special occasions. We took our son-in-law for his birthday and we were not disappointed. The staff were friendly and sat us immediately even without a reservation. The food was good and served piping hot. The servers were attentive and the complimentary dessert made him feel very special.

    2/18/2025.  Roti Prata ($5.25 each): 4/5 stars
    Jeff F.

    Plenty of authentic dishes to choose from and their service was speedy despite being almost at full capacity during weekday lunch hours. Roti Prata ($5.25 each): crispy and airy with that sweet curry to dip to start the flavors experience, 4/5 stars. Malay Sizzling Chicken ($18.50): sizzling with savory spices with tender chicken, 4/5 stars. Hainan Seasoned Rice (+ $3.25): the rice was fluffy but only mildly seasoned. Still better than plain ol' basmati rice, 3.5/5 stars.

    9/25 - Grilled Pineapple Salad
    Dexter D.

    Amazingly enough, it's been nearly three years since we were here last. Our friends made reservations for 6pm on a Saturday night and we avoided having to wait. The outdoor seating apparently wasn't being used because the pop-ups were all in a lowered position. There appeared to be a small wait from the time we arrived until we left but certainly not the crazy lines that we used to see. There were a few open tables inside when we arrived and we were seated immediately. Over the next 10 or 15 minutes, the dining room appeared to be full. We were given the option to use our phones for QR ordering or to see regular menus. I will always prefer the regular menu just to save eyestrain. Roti Telur - 3 - and drinks were the first things we ordered while we looked over the rest of the menu. This is the first time that we did not love this dish. It felt like it had been sitting around because it was not hot in temperature. For whatever reason, the egg flavor didn't "pop". Grilled Pineapple Salad - 5 - this dish was spot on with a blend of hot and cold, sweet and not sweet, slivers of nuts. Penang Sizzling Scallops - 5 - the scallops were sweet and cooked well. the size is U-10 which means under 10 to the lb, a good size! The sauce is amazing and just a little really adds flavor to steamed or brown rice. One downside is that there were only 4 scallops on this order. That's one each for the four of us. While priced comparable to Seafood restaurants for the quality and quantity, I would have happily paid more for more. Not another full order though, maybe 1/2 at the same price point per scallop. Malay Sizzling Lamb - 5 - another winner flavor wise. The lamb was tender, and the sauce was also delicious. Banana Leaf wrapped Grilled Chilean Seabass - 5 - tender, well cooked fish in a complex sauce made of chopped herbs, spice, lemon grass, sambal chili, and okra. Our order taker tried to convince us to order another fish instead because this one would take at least 30 minutes. We weren't in a hurry and I'm glad my wife stuck to her guns. He had also told us that the other fish would be a different flavor but just as nice. Pass! Huat Dan Ho - 3 - I believe that the last two times I had this dish, it was easily a 5. This trip was disappointing. I'm not sure if it was a matter of timing or just bad luck. The flavors weren't as strong as before and the serving temperature was less than idea. Were we too slow to eat it? Or had it sat at the pass for too long? It certainly looked hot when delivered to the table and the server was very careful when placing it on our table because this dish is very liquid and full to the edges. Deep-Fried Mango Ice Cream wrapped in Taro Cake, Deep-Fried Banana with Whipped Cream & Chocolate - 5 - is a wonderful dessert and more than enough for four to share. Yes, I could have ate more, but I really don't need it. Service was pretty good. Empty plates were taken away promptly. An eye was kept on our drinks to make sure that we stayed hydrated. It was disappointing that the Roti Telur and Huat Don Ho were not hot, especially when I had been bragging that these two dishes by themselves would bring me great satisfaction. :::sigh::: Yes, we'll be back again. Hopefully the misses this time were just a fluke. In general, the flavors are kick-butt and in your face, not at all shy.

In my opinion, I think it was just ok! A little overpriced for the amount of actual seafood in the dish (there were about 4 pieces of shrimp, small pieces of scallops and squid).

We ordered the roti, crispy pork belly, sausage, Laos style papaya salad, and a khao soi to share between 3 people. All of the food was absolutely delicious but we felt like the portions were a little small for the price.

The salad was crunchy, nutty, spicy, umami, and refreshing all at the same time, and there was a generous amount of the deliciously salty and tangy tea leaf dressing (much more than in versions of this salad from other restaurants)! Next, the Fish Noodle Soup was a spiced chowder with rice noodles, catfish, egg, cilantro, and fried yellow bean--a hearty, warming dish. The Lamb Curry with Potato was made of tender chunks of lamb in an oily spiced curry, served with a flaky pan-fried Parata; and the Chicken Drumstick Curry came with two braised drumsticks in a flavorful spice mixture, served with spiced yellow rice mixed with raisins and green peas, topped with crispy onions, pickled onions, and fried chilies! Of the two curries, I preferred the flavor of the Chicken Curry, but the tender meat of the Lamb Curry. The Parata was crispy and buttery, and the yellow rice with toppings had an incredible flavor and combination of textures.

No American Chinese takeout here, btw. One suggestion for the new owners: consider a name change. While I was there, a few people came in asking for Pad Thai, clearly not realizing the restaurant isn't Thai anymore. Meanwhile I'm sure people who actually wanted Chinese food would have come if the name advertised it. Because of all the confusion I think I was the only customer who stayed in the 15 minutes I waited for food. Overall, good food, fair prices, and worth a visit if you're in the mood for real Chinese cooking. I'd go back.
