Banana Leaves Asian Cafe

The first time we went here, we were turned away. The one guy working there was too busy. The second time we came here, my kid ordered the udon soup. The man was confused. I pointed to it on the menu. He showed me his screen, which showed other soups, but not udon. My kiddo changed the order to ramen (although I had just bought a frozen package of ramen from Costco). The man pulled out a frozen package that looked suspiciously like the frozen ramen packages from Costco, and cooked it up with some veggies. When we got home, we found in the takeout bag a container of noodles and another one with this (see pic). This is the most Chinese looking and tasting “ramen” I’ve ever seen. It actually looks like soupy moo goo gai pan. Look, this place needs help, literally. You guys have one guy handling orders and cooking. You have a menu you don’t know, you cook up store-bought food, and you don’t seem to know what you’re doing. I’m sure none of this is news to the owners. I don’t like railing on a small business, but there are too many red flags here. This place is begging to be an episode on one of those reality restaurant makeover shows. Look, get a smaller menu of things you actually can cook, and hire some people.

I came here for Malaysian but it is now changed to a Chinese restaurant. Very disappointed.

The food was absolutely terrible and we will never go there again. We ordered Taiwanese beef noodle, pho, Tom-Yum soup to go, it tasted so bad and my kids refused to eat them, and we threw all food away.

Food was AMAZING! The lady in the front was so sweet and helped me figure out what I wanted to order. From the meat served the portion sizes it was perfection. We ordered about 4 dishes to try since the price was so low compared to other shops.

Some of these other reviews think every business is corporate ran but these mom & pop shops work on a different beat. If you don’t mind the small size but care mostly about the food quality then this is the best lunch spot for you.

Food was absolutely terrible, me and my boyfriend don’t think this is authentic Chinese food. We ordered pork bun and the bread tasted like cardboard, as for the Singapore noodles we ordered, the beef had hard grizzle that hurt my teeth. The food overall tasted old and made me and my boyfriend sick and vomit. Food also doesn’t look like items shown in picture, must’ve been photoshopped.

One of the worst food I have ever had! Salmon was raw and had a terrible smell to it! Chicken satte were as gross and uncooked as they could be! Tofu preparations were completely tasteless, and smelly! Overall, food quality has gone down from bad to worse! Would not recommend this restaurant to anyone!

Great food! Very tastee! Service slightly slow.

I thought the Sautéed chicken was really good ( and huge portion).

the food does not work the chicken is raw and you forgive them that they do the terrible thing asking for more tip and now the one who answers the phone asking how much tip you are going to give them is unpleasant with these people I am not going to order food from them anymore

Awesome lunch.
