Banana Leaf Restaurant in Swansea is a fantastic spot for anyone craving authentic Indian and Sri Lankan cuisine. The koththu parata is a must try. The restaurant has a cozy and welcoming atmosphere. The menu offers a wide variety of dishes, including traditional curries, dosas, and biryanis, all packed with rich flavors and spices. The portion sizes are generous and prices are reasonable for the quality and authenticity of the food, making it good value for money.

Chutneys were ok . Will give it a try again in future avoiding Dosa. They said the Welsh people like the Bland taste so the restaurant is preparing like that.

Our experience at the restaurant, advertised for its "authentic Sri Lankan and South Indian cuisine," left much to be desired. Despite our anticipation, the food failed to deliver on its promise. As a group of six, we ventured to explore the flavors of both Sri Lankan and South Indian cuisines, only to find that aside from the 'Koththu Rotti', nothing on the menu truly represented either culinary tradition. Opting for dishes like the Chettinad fish Curry, Sri Lankan style Chicken curry, and Kadaai chicken, we were met with disappointment. Each dish seemed to share a common, overly sweet base, lacking the distinct spices and flavors that characterize authentic South Asian cuisine. Despite our disappointment, when we sought an explanation for the deviation from the promised authenticity, our concerns were brushed aside. At a hefty price of £82 pounds for our meal, we couldn't help but feel we would have been better off dining elsewhere, perhaps at a reliable spot like Nandos where we could have enjoyed a satisfying meal without disappointment. Overall, our experience fell short of expectations, leaving us longing for the flavors and authenticity we had hoped for. Our visit : 07of April 2024.

We didn’t have a reservation but were able to be squeezed in. We saw a lot of people get turned away though so reservations are advised. We thoroughly enjoyed our food. All of it was incredibly tasty and well prepared. The portions were ample and we ended up taking a lot home. I personally really enjoyed the egg hopper mutton Sri Lankan curry and the potato curry. Be warned - there are no spice levels on the food. As someone who considers myself good with spice I found one dish too hot for me. They’re super friendly so just make sure to ask before you order if you’re not sure. All in all we had a lovely time and will definitely be back.

Visited as part of a large group having attended a function during the day. Due to the size of the group (40 of us!) they had asked us to pre-order meals, which we did. Staff had a copy of the spreadsheet of orders (as did our group leader) to make sure all orders got brought out to the right people. Food was aboslutely gorgeous. Best Biryani I've ever tasted. Some interesting other meals, all of which our group thoroughly enjoyed.

My veggie partner was amazed to have almost as much choice on the menu as me rather than the usual token menu items that tend to be the same thing over and over. That doesn't mean there was any shortage of choice for me! The food was also really good, quite different to anything we've had elsewhere, but without resorting to strange ingredients where you've no idea what they are! We had Dosai (as shown in the picture) and it was great. Service was also great, the restaurant is much more lovely inside than the area of Swansea it's situated in and if we're ever back in town it will certainly be on our list of To-Dos. If there's a veggie in your group then this really is one of the best choices going!

Just had the worst experience, have visited multiple times earlier but this time was worst. I had ordered egg kothu Paratha and found egg shell, when I informed the manager he literally used his hands and removed it from my plate and passed a comment it's common to find a egg shell in this kind of dish. On top of that he gave a chicken gravy with egg kothu Paratha ( I am a eggeterian).

Always been ordering online. Just wanted to have food in the restaurant and experience it. The place was quiet free and only 4 tables were occupied. The food was excellent and was made just as we wanted it. The young girl who hosted us was really sweet, helpful and welcoming. She even suggested us the dish and explained why it's different from others. The one star for the service is given for the other guy (bald head) who kept us creeping the whole time. Only thing that bothered me is, he visited every table to check on them except for ours. May be because we were brown and the other tables were not brown or could be some bizarre reason. Overall it was an unpleasant experience and would warn others before visiting the place.

Went here for dinner yesterday evening and I must say that the food was outstanding. The portions were very generous and the prices very reasonable in comparison to other Indian restaurants in Swansea. Many vegan options too which I was delighted to see. The type of cuisine they offer was familiar but different in comparison to other traditional western style Indian restaurants which I found very refreshing. The curry I ordered (Channa Masala) was probably one of the best curries I've ever had. I will definitely be returning.

You can tell the food is prepared by someone who is talented and knowledgeable about food. What a blessing. All the food was lovely but the Gobi Manchurian was incredible. Just outstanding. There’s a lot to sample and I really want to revisit or take-away to try it.

Family of 3(2adults & a kid) went for a dine in experience following an excellent experience with take aways from the restaurant. However, We encountered a distasteful experience due to an uncourteous behaviour of the supervisor/manager who wouldn’t let a hungry kid have his small pack of chips brought along while waiting to order food. We were told by the restaurant manager/supervisor that it is considered rude &against the company’s policy to have outside food in the restaurant & was told to remove the chips packet from the table and put it in our bags. One of us had to take the kid outside of the restaurant to have his chips and come back to resume having the ordered food. I second following the policy, however I strongly felt that the manager needs some coaching on hospitality and communication skills. Hopeful for change!

I've eaten here a few times with my partner and always been blown away by the food, so for my birthday this year I thought I'd arrange a meal with some friends to share the deliciousness with loved ones. Big mistake. The restaurant clearly don't want to cater for large parties (there were 12 adults and 4 kids in our group). We booked an early table at 5pm to make this easier for the restaurant and free up the space for evening diners. From the moment of our arrival we were treated with utter contempt, bits of our order never turned up, drinks took ages to arrive. When it came to leaving, we were told we had underpaid by £25 - but previously the waitress had said we had completely covered before I'd even paid my portion so the £25 I paid for my meal was essential the tip (way more than 10%). The hostile manager wouldn't let us leave and insisted we pay the missing money plus a tip. After we left we checked all our receipts (though most of us paid in cash), added them up and saw we had indeed been swindled. I am genuinely devastated because I have loved eating here until this point, but I won't be going back because of the way we were treated. If you are a solo diner or couple then please do visit because the food is absolutely out of this world, but if you are a large party please avoid the awful experience I was unfortunate to have at the hands of such a grumpy man completely devoid of human kindness (who really shouldn't be front of house).

I visited Banana Leaf hoping for a fresh take on South Asian cuisine, and that's exactly what I got. The spicing is excellent, deeper and hotter than Indian food, and enhancing the flavour in meat and vegetables. The mutton curry is particularly good, the sauce sizzles with heat and flavour and the meat is beautifully tender. Side dishes balance the mains very well and kothu is an excellent accompaniment. Portions are generous, service is attentive and value for money is very good. I will certainly come back soon. Thank you for a very enjoyable experience.

Love the food, authentic and tasty. The managers look after your needs. Daal, coconut rice, biryani, curries are all delicious. I love their thin, hot chapatis. I eat here solo and with family. Recommended.

Really good food, a good range to suit all tastes while remaining authentic. Helpful staff who happily switched our in person reservation to a delivery when we tested positive for covid right before!

Ambiance is great, but food is not so good. Disappointing Sunday menu. Used to be the best curry around but no longer stands out. Hope they get their act back together.

Food was excellent. I ordered a lamb vindaloo and a saag aloo. Lamb was so tender and delicious. Saag also was gorgeous, favourite restaurant for an Indian restaurant.

Outstanding. The food was hot upon arrival. Friendly service. And each dish we had was gorgeous. The tandoori chicken was succulent and the portions were ample. Well done Townhill Tandoori!! We will be repeat customers.
