We had a really nice dinner at Banana Tree Islington. We were greeted warmly by a member of the staff and they were all very friendly and helpful throughout our dinner. Every dish we ordered was delicious, as well as the mocktails and desserts. We will definitely come back again.

Had a fantastic meal at Banana Tree. The service was excellent and Maria, in particular, was outstanding. We had a show to get to and not much time to eat but she ensured that our food was received promptly as promised.

Whilst the food was ok and of a fair price (4star), the restaurant were not able to fulfil orders that were prebooked and prepaid in a timely manner (1 star) - a 40min delay waiting to collect during a 1hr lunch break is not acceptable. I blame the central order system rather than the Islington staff; it shouldn't commit to 12 midday customer collection if the kitchen hasn't even begun cooking until that same minute.

Food was alright. I found that there were too many kinds of flavors in the food I ordered that probably everything would taste similar. Flavours not distinct. Mostly an okay place but moderately expensive. I went again for lunch and had one of the £5 meals...chicken lemak. It was sooo good. Definitely defined flavors this time without confusion. I had an equally priced juice and that was good too. Service was good. I tried to go a week before, and had a person say to me come back later as they were understaffed. But his communication wasn't too clear. And that was disappointing.

I don’t want to be pedantic as it’s only a fiver, but I had seen the deal on social media food influencers pages saying it’s big portions and there not small because it’s a a cheap or lunchtime deal, when I went today I had literally 3 small slices of katsu and 90% rice I couldn’t even eat- service was fine and arrived within 5-10 minutes but was basically a bowl of rice

I recently visited the banana Tree, it was my first time there in Angel, thank you Maria for your attentive service and hospitality. As for food, I had Thai panang curry and chicken dumplings. The panang curry was rich and creamy, with just the right amount of spice and rice. The chicken was tender and infused with deep flavors, making every bite a delight. As for the chicken dumplings, they were a fantastic appetiser steamed to perfection, the dumplings were soft and filled with a savory mixture of minced chicken and herbs. They came with a delicious sauce that added an extra layer of flavor. Overall, the meal was really good, and I highly recommend especially as a pit stop before a concert or event.

First experience with this chain and mostly positive. Good menu selection and food delivered matched up....and tastey. Good portion of pad Thai. Banana fritter dessert pretty good. Initially served by manager who was friendly and helpful. Unfortunately the other staff were less professional, asked to drop optional service charge at checkout, and was questioned why and then had the two male staff muttering to each other. Sorry chaps you need to learn manners before expecting a tip....for nothing. Would try the chain again but watch out for large service charge added onto your bill!.....Tip staff directly.

Came here for dinner after seeing good reviews for a thai place, chicken dumplins starter was lovely, for main I got the beef rendang curry flavours were great however dish was served more warm than hot and towards the end the whole dish was cold and im quite a quick eater, service was abit annoying there were two servers and it was quiet they both kept coming over and asking the same question as the other, recieved the bill, paid cash and the waitress just said thank you and didnt bring over the change, I just let it go as it was around £3 but after paying a 12.5% service charge she should of gave me change and let me decide what to do with it instead of just keeping it Would visit a bananatree again just probably not this one

They are arrogant & rude. Customer service is not a priority here. Sure the food is ok but when you are charging twice as much as the same quality available at a takeaway 1 mile away you need to dress it up, be nice, friendly, even make your guests feel valued (god forbid) & give your punters a reason to pay the extra.

The Laksa I had was slightly different from what I remember (maybe there’s a new chef), but the highlight of our visit was the exceptional service. A special shoutout to Mesi, who went above and beyond to make our day special. She not only provided excellent service but also recommended the best dessert we’ve ever had at Banana Tree. Her team’s customer service was outstanding—they were attentive, friendly, and made us feel welcome. I highly recommend visiting when Mesi and her team are on shift for a top-notch experience.

Día 1 en Londres después de 30 horas de agotador viaje , buscas algún Comida caliente servida. Terminó en este restaurante, los chapati integrales son los mismos que hacemos en casa, sin embargo, la salsa tiene un toque bangladesí que no se acerca en absoluto al gusto indio. . la cantidad de salsa también fue muy inferior. Aún no hemos probado otras opciones de curry baratas disponibles desde aquí.
