Lovely birthday meal. Food was great, cocktails were great, but most of all the service from Jay was excellent. Really cool and cheerful guy who was attentive to our needs and preferences and had a good laugh with us. Thanks for the birthday cake too! 👌🏻

Food was yummy I had the pad thai, great flavour. The Teriyaki steak soba was amazing , steak so tender and cooked perfectly , just slightly pink in the middle, we also tried the Thai Railway Fried Rice, a big plate of food that we ate between 2 in the end , it packed a real punch in terms of a great build up of heat in your mouth. We also had an old staple a Ramen , which slurped down easily , a good balance of flavour and a good sized portion

Oh god I Always love banana tree, me and my family had a dinner last month here and had excellent service from staff the staff was very personable & helped us move tables when we originally sat ourselves next to a big group which ended up being too loud, the staff is friendly The food was amazing quality as always! The only thing I was surprised by was my duck wasn't cut up like it usually is when I order that dish. I'm not sure if it's changed or if it was an error, either way it was different, but still tasted amazing after cutting up!

I recently dined at Banana Tree in Chelmsford, and it was a delightful experience from start to finish. The atmosphere was vibrant yet cozy, making it a perfect spot for a casual night out. The food was fantastic, with authentic Southeast Asian flavors that were both rich and fresh. The crispy prawns and spicy noodles were definite highlights, bursting with flavor. A special mention goes to our wonderful waitresses, Angy and Stef. They were attentive, friendly, and genuinely invested in making sure we had a great dining experience. They guided us through the menu, recommended dishes based on our preferences, and were quick with refills and checking in at just the right moments. Their warm personalities made the evening feel personal and enjoyable. Overall, Banana Tree is a gem in Chelmsford. I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a tasty and memorable meal with excellent service. Thanks again to Angy and Stef for making our visit extra special.

We recently celebrated a kid's birthday party at Banana Tree, and I can't say enough good things about our experience! From the moment we arrived, the atmosphere was warm and welcoming. The food was absolutely delicious—every dish was bursting with flavor, and the variety was perfect for both kids and adults alike. A special shoutout to Liviu and Stefania, who went above and beyond to make the celebration extra special. Their super friendly service made us feel right at home, and they were so attentive throughout the meal, ensuring everything ran smoothly. Liviu’s attention to detail and Stefania’s cheerful energy really stood out—what a fantastic team! Incredible food. Outstanding service! Highly recommended!

Date: 30 Aug 2024 Time: 20:00 Approx* Catherine (Cati) greeted us at the door with a warm smile and a friendly, approachable attitude. She quickly seated us, explained the current deals, and gave us plenty of time to decide on our order. Despite the restaurant being quite busy, she efficiently managed to serve all the customers. After taking our order, Cati submitted it and we waited for our drinks. Although the drinks took a while to arrive, Cati apologised sincerely and as a gesture of goodwill, she even provided us with complimentary drinks to make up for the mix-up. It was evident that Cati was highly skilled at her job, consistently going above and beyond for her customers. Not only was she attentive to those she was serving, but she also helped with drink preparations and even assisted in the kitchen when needed.

Our first visit to the Lantern House. We received a warm welcome and were quickly seated in the main restaurant. The food was absolutely delicious and of high quality. We had a large variety of different dishes including the mixed vegetarian starter platter (this included bean curd, tempura vegetables, spring rolls and seaweed), crispy prawn dumplings, chilli salt squid (really tender), black pepper sizzling lamb (absolutely delicious) sweet and sour pork and various rice and noodle dishes. Portion sizes were very good and there was plenty to take home for a midnight snack / next day treat. The staff were very friendly and helpful throughout the night and made us feel very welcome. We will definately be back in 2025. Highly recommended!

Went for a meal here the weekend. The restaurant was very clean. The staff we spoke with very rude. Our waiter was very pushy in telling us what we was going to eat rather than what we wanted to eat. We ordered a drink each and then asked for some tap water for the table, well he’s face said it all, he did not like us ordering tap water. ( even after ordering a round of drinks) the food was nice tho no problems there. He then told us we had ordered duck which we hadn’t. And kept saying we have. We said no one has ordered duck on this table to which he walked off in a huff. When paying, the bill hadn’t even hit the table and he had the card machine in our faces waving it around. Poor customer service from him and not even a goodbye or thanks from any of the staff on front desk. Food lovely, Customer service needs improving.
