Great little place served by step and angry and they were so friendly attentive and helpful and made our visit special - the food is fresh reasonable portions with an average price per head for two courses with drink of about £28 ahead - location is good and parking is near by well worth the visit

Went to Banana Tree for our staff xmas meal as a party of 17. We were seated on the two large tables in the middle of the restaurant, plenty of space for all of us to move around comfortably. The food was absolutely delicious, all of my colleagues were very pleased. I ordered the vegan sharing platter, vegan katsu curry and mango sorbet on their festive menu. All 3 dishes were good portion sizes, and perfect temperature and taste. My party's dishes all came out very closely together so there was very little wait for us to enjoy our food together. The service was also great - very friendly, chatty and helpful staff. Overall very happy with my experience before Christmas. I've been to Banana Tree Chelmsford many times and I'll continue to do so in the future

A recent visit visit with family, food was underwhelming saved by excellent service. My Ramen was luke warm & papaya salad had zero flavour. The food was average, however to add balance children ate for free and mocktails were 2 for 1. So great offers. The staff were fun and attentive.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Banana Tree in Chelmsford for lunchwith my family (inc 2 teenage children) and it was an excellent experience. Our servers, Jay and Stefania, were outstanding in their attentiveness and hospitality, ensuring we had everything we needed throughout our meal. We sampled dishes from the lunch menu, including Pad Thai, Thai Green Curry, and Singapore Laksa. Each dish was a delight, bursting with authentic flavors and fresh ingredients that transported our taste buds straight to Southeast Asia. The Pad Thai was perfectly balanced, with just the right amount of sweetness and tang. The Thai Green Curry had a wonderful creamy texture and a perfect hint of spice, while the Singapore Laksa was rich and fragrant, a real standout. My husband got called away last minute but we were able to put his dinner in a takeaway box and they were really helpful and understanding. The atmosphere at Banana Tree was inviting and lively, making it a great spot for a casual lunch. Overall, we had a fantastic dining experience, and I would highly recommend Banana Tree to anyone looking for delicious Southeast Asian cuisine in Chelmsford.

Great food and even better service 10/10 All staff were very attentive and professional special mention to Flountina for outstanding service. One big negative for this restaurant is the continuing banging from the bowling alley which is directly above the restaurant. Definitely needs some sound proofing 😊

Food is always beautiful here! Atmosphere was really chilled. Staff friendly and attentive, took a little while to take our order but was busy so a minor issue. Any delays with food (which weren’t really delays!) were communicated by staff (special shout out to Guri! Couldn’t have been more friendly and attentive if he tried!) Drinks great, food amazing and beautifully presented. Have been a few times and will definitely go again!

We’ve been to banana tree a number of times and they have consistently offered a high standard of food and service. This time especially Jay and Stefania were excellent and were very conversational and were always there to help our every need. The experience was great and would highly recommend to anyone else and will be back again soon.

Sometimes you can be put off by multiple types of food at chains but The BT Chelmsford is great. Jay and Daisy are exceptional at service and making you feel welcome and the food is very authentic and doesn't have that mass produced feel that some of the other chains do Watching it being prepared is great to see and the chefs take their time to get the flavours right Keep it up guys!!

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.

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!

Food was Luke warm I expect it was pre cooked and heated when ordered due ti the sheer volume of customers on a Saturday night also staff were surly and impatient when I asked for a clean bowl and a spoon 🥹 extremely expensive too Therefore never setting foot in there again 🤣
