"I’ve had the Tastecard a little while now, but never got around to using it. The restaurants featured on the program are largely chain-based. Or not very good ones. So this is my first experience with that in hand. BananaTree is located in the heart of Soho making it an ideal spot to catch up with a friend from the office. The deal meant buy-one-get-one-free so we had a lot of food for not a lot. A good start. Our order consisted of the chicken wings, money bags along with our mains of the beef rendang curry and the pad thai. The fried wings are very good. Messy, sticky and lots of sauce. They offer a recipe for their tantalising wings on their website. It all looks well and good and I get excited up to a point. Then I realise, and decide it’s too many ingredients and too much work. It is one of the most popular appetisers at Banana Tree, and easy to understand why. The rendang was just above average, the meat tasted a bit dry and there wasn’t enough curry for my liking. The beef is quite chunky, and of good quality so its got that going for it. Banana Tree feels like yet another whitewashed Asian-inspired food restaurant in London. Others that come to mind: East Street and Dim T. Dishes across Thailand, Cambodia, Malaysia, Singapore and Vietnam all meld into one being rather than having each of its own elements celebrated. The first store opened a staggering twenty one years ago and now its eight stores it may have traded that authenticity with domination. The venue at Banana Tree has a nice, vibrant atmosphere and this is only completed by the size of the crowd. It’s plenty busy and a popular haunt for some of the other corporate dwellers from the looks of it. I didn’t find the find innovative but it was tasty."

I have visited this restaurant twice. It is situated in the bustling streets of Soho, which is very convenient for those looking for authentic Thai cuisine after a day of shopping on Oxford Street. The appetizers were delicious and for our main courses, we opted for the green chicken curry and green vegetable curry, both of which were absolutely divine. The atmosphere was great and everyone in our group loved the place. We will definitely be returning again.

Banana Tree is a small chain of restaurants serving food from Indochina: Thai, Vietnamese, Malaysian and Singapore. The first Banana Tree opened in 1991 in Maida Vale, London, with the aim of serving quick healthy food from the Indochina area. They serve fresh and fragrant salads, slow-cooked curries and stews and barbecued foods. They also specialise in Oriental cocktails and raw fruit and vegetable drinks. They have a separate vegetarian menu with an excellent range for non-meat eaters.

Banana Tree Soho is one of seven branches in London specialising in Indochinese cuisine, serving a variety of dishes from Thailand, Vietnamese, Malaysia and Singapore. This gives the menu a good twist and offers a great variety for the customer – suits me perfectly as I love that type of cuisine. I visited on a Monday and it was fully packed with a nice atmosphere. I opted for the double cooked crispy pork and the prawn crackers to start. Moving on to mains we had the duck curry and the seafood combo. The curry was fantastic with plenty of meat and vegetables – could just do with slightly more sauce, as that is the best bit.... View menu

This Asian fusion restaurant in Soho attracted me by its wide range of choices of dishes. We ordered the Mekong crispy prawns which were delicious, good quality, great seasoning. Though I wished it had some restaurant made sauce other than sweet chilli. For the mains I ordered the legendary rendang (chicken) combo which is a huge portion I was struggling to finish. The curry is tasty, coconut based, but i felt too coconuty after sometime. The combo offers rice, fried corn balls and salad which was a good balance. We also tried the blackened chilli pork (combo option) which I preferred better than the curry. Overall, slightly overpriced for the food, average service and ambiance. Nothing to s...

We got here on lazy Saturday afternoon and were really hungry. Design is ok, however a little bit messy. I can't imagine a visit in any thai restaurant and not ordering green curry, so of course this was my choice during dinner in Banana Tree. We ordered and after short waiting the dishes appeared on our table. Curry was really good! It contained a lot of fresh and crispy vegetables (including baby corns, carrot and broccoli) and the chicken was great very juicy and soft. Size of the serving is just enough to feel full. Greencurry alone was perfectly spicy and aromatic. The only thing I'd change is to add more curry itself I prefer it when curry is more liquid. I finished the curry sauce and...
