Food was absolutely delicious! We arrived from Belgium just around closing time and they made an exception and let us eat ❤️ We’ll definitely go there again on our next visit!

Yesterday I went there with friend! They have both Chinese and German menus, which is very convenient. And moreover! It should be emphasized that 10% off recently! BUT you must pay in cash.
I strongly recommend my favorite drink: Kiba. It is mix of banana juice and cherry juice. My friend drink Thai beer, very refreshing. If you like refreshing beer, try it!
I have always liked to eat their eggplant. I used to order the spicy one. But yesterday I try the Nanyang-style roasted eggplant. I love it! Recommend!
We ordered a new dish, not on the menu, it is chicken with salt and pepper. Man can choose the spiciness, we asked for slightly spicy. The chicken is very tender. There are also small pieces of onions and peppers.
I don’t know the name, so I call it: Beef plus Tofu. Recommend!

Awesome Southeast Asian food with great service. I didn’t get to check the menu before I went to the place so I was quite worried if my vegetarian friend can get something nice too. Apparently, they offer a wide variety of vegetarian dishes too and he said it’s super good. Would recommend.

Good experience at Banana Leaf. We came late wednesday and had fried duck and fried chicken. The food was good and the portions was really really big. There was definitely more than enough for one person on the plate.

This is probably the best restaurant in town. If you love Asian food this is the place to be!

Great little restaurant that has lunch specials. Menu is only in German but has the usual Asian names. Also the waitress spoke English and can explain if required. Food was freshly prepared and tasted quite delicious, the rendang wasn't a curry as such but still tasted very nice. Will go again and again for sure.
