Banana Tree Clapham Junction

After a mediocre dining experience a few years ago, I was pleasantly surprised by both the service and the food upon my recent return to the Battersea branch of Indochinese restaurant Banana Tree. After short wait in the reception area, my friend and I were led to one of the private tables off the main room. As a shared dining hater, I was happy not to be seated at one of the long, communal tables. Both vegos, my friend and I shared the aubergine with caramel sauce for our starter. It was cooked to perfection and super tasty. For mains we both went for the Blackened Monk Noodles mine sans egg to veganise the dish. The portions were massive with a tonne of perfectly cooked tofu and tasty, crunchy veg served with the noodles. The noodles also came with a huge rice cake and crispy corn cakes. After having a starter too, I couldn 't quite finish my main but I put in a good effort! The menu is pretty big without being overwhelming and all allergens and dietary options are clearly marked. I often find dining in Asian restaurants a little tricky given that fish sauce is secretly hidden in many recipes; not so at Banana Tree as vegetarian dishes that have fish sauce in them are clearly marked. At around £16 per head including drinks the huge meals are great value and I 'd definitely go back for a cheap but tasty meal.

so good! have lived more than half my life in Southeast Asia and I am so glad to have found very similar aromen near banana tree! must try the amok, the chicken dumpling and the banana tree spice noodle. only what you do is that you feel extremely full of the heavy of the noodles. but it is worth it anyway!

I visited this place to my birthday during the happy hours to have drinks. they have a good choice of drinks that turns out very reasonable during the happy hours. the personal is super friendly and they even gave me a free cupcake, as it was my birthday.

huge and varied menu with a cool industrial feeling. the waiting staff was fast and pleasant and everything we had was delicious when something overpriced! make them the best of lunch specialties there and happy hour for 2:1 cocktails!
