I ordered chicken fried rice and chicken biryani from Banana Leaf on 20/02/2025 at 10:30 PM, that is last night and it was honestly the worst experience ever. I specifically asked for the food to be spicy, but instead of cooking it properly, they just threw raw chili powder on the rice. To make things worse, the chicken in the fried rice wasn’t even properly fried—it felt undercooked and completely tasteless. It was inedible, not just for me but for my friend as well. After eating it, my stomach got upset, and the whole experience was extremely disappointing. This is absolutely unacceptable, especially when customers are paying good money for a meal. If this restaurant wants to keep its customers, they need to learn how to cook food properly and serve it with care. Throwing raw spices into a dish, serving undercooked chicken, and calling it “spicy” is not cooking—it’s negligence. My money was completely wasted, and I would not recommend this place unless they seriously improve their food quality and cooking standards.

An unexpected and unplanned birthday visit which turned out to be a brilliant quirk of fate. We visited on a Saturday teatime and were pleased to be quickly seated amongst the numerous already reserved tables. The restaurant quickly filled up. Our mini masala dosas starters were delicious, complimented by the fresh coconut chutney, tomato chutney and bowl of perfectly balanced spicy sambar. My main of Kerala chicken chetinad curry was really tasty with chicken sitting a lovely, fragrant gravy with hints of curry leaves and star anise. My partner's Malabar chicken was also delicious. They were accompanied by perfectly cooked, fragrant jeera rice and a parotta. We can't wait to return.

We didn’t have a reservation but were able to be squeezed in. We saw a lot of people get turned away though so reservations are advised. We thoroughly enjoyed our food. All of it was incredibly tasty and well prepared. The portions were ample and we ended up taking a lot home. I personally really enjoyed the egg hopper mutton Sri Lankan curry and the potato curry. Be warned - there are no spice levels on the food. As someone who considers myself good with spice I found one dish too hot for me. They’re super friendly so just make sure to ask before you order if you’re not sure. All in all we had a lovely time and will definitely be back.

Today I experienced Banana Leaf at Swansea. I'm an Indian guy, so I came here for my studies in the UK. Our family has considered experimenting with food options beyond Indian cuisine. Normally we use cooking as a traditional way of avoiding outside food quality; we only prefer good, hygienic, and good-quality food outside in our place itself. Seriously, I'm disappointed that I'm asking about the taste of the South Indian style I ordered today. The provided items consist of heated frozen food, with the only gravy being the one they mentioned, despite its slight variations. Why should we wait for fresh food at the hotel? Also, it's acceptable to have tasty food. Indeed, Banana Leaf—Swansea is revolutionising the Indian food industry and the art of cooking. To be honest, their approach to food decorating was nothing special. We used to avoid frozen food because our culture typically values freshly prepared food. People in other countries also expect businesses to operate similarly. I can assure you that this individual was operating under the guise of promoting South Indian cuisine, promising to deliver high-quality food to those who enjoy it. However, they failed to uphold the true essence of preparing high-quality food. Please avoid those who love South Indian food; don't try Banana Leaf in Swansea. It will negatively impact both your health and the health of your children. Foods such as dosa and briyani require a specific preparation process for optimal productivity. Normal of making doing business means one that specific food instantaneously prepared means that they can run for the business other items while they are populating and doing the business. If you specifically mean that it's a business strategy, then the hotel industry fits the bill. This individual is not conducting business for the sake of making money, but rather for the purpose of promoting high-quality service. Spoiling the South Indian business strategy

I called my friends and told them about today. I experienced Banana Leaf at Swansea. One guy was working as a helper cook. He revealed to me that they stored excess food for a week before making adjustments and reorganising the business. They never think about the quality. It was shocking and spoiling the food industry down, especially the South Indian food industry. Because of this guy, other South Indian industries are also spoiling. Knowing and having poison is okay; not knowing and having it is not acceptable. Be aware of Banana Leaf at Swansea. I don't know how many reviews the restaurant has received, 4+, but I thought about trying their dosa and Biyani, fried rice mixed with hometown business provided here for a new taste of their internal business; it might be high impact. Other than that, there's nothing particularly noteworthy about...

I had the pleasure of dining at Banana Leaf restaurant in Swansea with a group of 13 friends, and it was an extraordinary culinary journey. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with warm hospitality that set the tone for the evening.

The highlight of our meal was undoubtedly the wide array of authentic and flavorful dishes. The Brinjal (Aubergine) Curry was a delightful start, with tender eggplant pieces cooked to perfection in a rich and aromatic sauce. The Mutton Kothu Parotta and Vegetable Kothu were equally impressive, offering a unique blend of textures and spices that left our taste buds dancing with joy.

For those seeking a taste of South Indian cuisine, the Mysore Masala Dosa was a standout. Crispy on the outside and filled with a delectable potato mixture, it was a true delight. The Gobi Manchurian was a delightful fusion of Indian and Chinese flavors, adding a touch of zest to our meal.

For those who enjoy a bit of heat, the Mutton Devil was a fiery masterpiece. The tender mutton pieces were coated in a spicy sauce that had us reaching for water and savoring every bite. To balance the spice, the veg noodles provided a refreshing and satisfying contrast.

Throughout the evening, the attentive staff ensured our dining experience was flawless. They were knowledgeable about the menu, accommodating to dietary preferences, and always ready with a smile.

In a nutshell, Banana Leaf restaurant delivered an unforgettable dining experience with its authentic and flavorful dishes, attentive service, and inviting atmosphere. It’s a hidden gem in Swansea that deserves to be discovered and cherished by food enthusiasts. I can confidently say that this restaurant has set a new standard for Indian cuisine in the UK. I look forward to returning soon to explore more of their...
