BANANA TREE RESTAURANT / WHATS YOUR KATSU

Banana Tree Restaurant in W1F is a crowd-pleaser with a 5/5 hygiene rating and a decent 4.6 Google score. The food gets rave reviews, especially for celebrations—Ahmed and Ricardo, you’re the real MVPs here. Diners love the bang bang broccoli and the Chicken Massaman curry, calling it their new favorite dish, like it’s a culinary version of a new Netflix series. Oh, and don’t forget the surprise birthday cake—who doesn’t love a surprise cake?

But don’t let the shiny reviews fool you; it's not all sunshine and rainbows. Some diners have had their fair share of disappointments, especially with bland dishes and slow service. So, if you’re lucky enough to hit it on a good night with the right dishes, you’ll leave happy. But if you find yourself on a night where things are off, you might just leave feeling like you stepped into a cooking competition that went terribly wrong.
