So glad Banana Island survived the pandemic. Good Asian food. Good selection and live the roti and curry dip.
They have delicious dishes. There's spicy and non-spicy choices on the menu.
The volcano spare ribs is a house specialty. The noodle dish was good as well.
When I was growing up, we’d use to come here often . We came for Father’s Day this year and the food quality has dropped a bit, as well as the portions of the roti… they are so small now that one portion is like for one individual. The beef rendang and the pad se ew were the highlights but the pad Thai is probably the worst pad Thai I have ever had. All in all, it’s alright but not as good as it used to be
I came here with my family for a weekend lunch and got zero complaints from my Asian mother (which is the highest compliment of all)!
We loved the roti appetizer, so glad that we ordered 2 portions for 4 people to share. It was light and fluffy, dipping it into the coconut curry sauce was perfect. We also tried a few other Singaporean classics like chicken and beef satay - the chicken was far more tender than the beef. The nasi lamak had great flavor but we weren't expecting it to be served like a single lunch portion. We also got a whole fish which was supposed to be Thai style, did not expect it to be fully deep fried but the accompanying sweet chili sauce was not bad. I would skip the Singapore style rice noodles next time (or maybe go for the crunchy fried version).
I will be back to try the curry and some of their other popular dishes!
Pati is tasty and flakey, Hainanese chicken is excellent with either the hot sauce or the ginger sauce for dipping, spicy wings are tasty, beef rice noodles are excellent, spicy and sour seafood soup is great.
My recent visit to Banana Island was quite underwhelming. The food was mediocre, and the service was even worse. Not only did the servers roll their eyes and treat me with attitude, but they also refused to provide the Wi-Fi password. This experience left me disappointed and frustrated.
Love how fast they make the food it was so good and service is quick and didn’t have to wait long to eat there
Took me a while to find this place, as it is a bit hidden—behind the hime depot and the parking structure on Westlake. Arriving, there was almost no one, but as soon as I was seated, the lunch crowd began. I understand, reservations are highly recommended. I ordered a simple pad Thai and the amount of sweetness was just right—as I’ve had some that were too sweet. My only disappointment with my dish is that it only had 2 shrimps in the whole dish. Aside that, the flavor was superb. Service was fast and the woman in the front (taking phone calls), was absolutely fantastic. Great service. Great food.
