Banana Island is a well-known restaurant that has been a popular spot for family celebrations. The menu features a variety of rich dishes, including pad thai, chicken, beef rendang, and unique items like fried banana ice cream and roti. The restaurant also offers pickled sides to balance the palate. Customers have praised the friendly and prompt service, with attentive staff contributing to the restaurant's long-standing reputation. The atmosphere is nice and clean, making it a comfortable place for families and visitors.
Recent reviews highlight the quality of dishes such as chicken rendang, which was described as fantastic, and the Singapore Fried Rice, praised for its flavors. The service is often described as "awesome" and "prompt," with specific mention of friendly and helpful staff. Some diners enjoyed dishes like Thai Fried Rice, Crispy Fried Squid, and the popular Mango sticky rice for dessert. A few reviews noted that certain dishes, like kangkung belacan, were slightly overcooked and soggy, with less taste of belacan or shrimp, and the sauce on Nasi lemak could be spicier. Still, overall, guests leave satisfied and eager to return to try more menu items.
