Food was good, but service was horrible. Half our table ordered the 9 course menu while the other half ordered off the menu. Halfway through the meal, they completely forgot about the second half of the 9 course until we asked. No apologies, just food a good 45 min after the rest of our table. Add in the 15% automatic tip plus the fact the majority of our party caught a stomach flu afterwards, and it’s safe to say you should avoid.

Came here for lunch — the food was amazing, the service quick and friendly and the wine selection was great. I had the roti/beef curry lunch special. Can’t wait to return.

So tasty here. We had the tasting menu which I highly recommend as you get a bit of everything. You do get a lot of food and will have lots for lunch tomorrow.

It’s our 1st night in Vancouver where there are 20 kinds of restaurants per block it seems. We were taken to this restaurant in Denman by a Vancouver local who had nothing but praises for this place. We were not disappointed. Started off with a yummy lychee mojito– very refreshing! Ordered the appetizer sampler($ 18), nasi goreng rice, seafood curry and pork ribs. Everything was delicious and filling. Service was excellent. What a wonderful dining experience. Highly recommended !

We came here while in town. We didn’t stay and eat in, we took it to go. The place was easy to find, as it was on a main street in the west end area. I didn’t completely see inside the restaurant everywhere, but from what I saw, it was nice and clean. The customer service was good. Very polite and did their best to make our food in a timely manner. I had a taste for some Curry chicken so that’s what I got. I also thought their spring rolls looked good so I ordered that as well. I thought it was absolutely delicious! Just the right amount of seasoning for the chicken, they didn’t overdo the taste. It was awesome! I literally ate the food up like it was my last meal on earth. Didn’t mean to, it was just that good! I will definitely be back here next time we’re in town!

Banana leaf is one of a kind, their pineapple fried rice is really special and their desserts with mango and sticky rice is very yummy

Probably some of the best southeast Asian food I have had in a long time. We had the roti bread(amazing), the soft shell crab(waddup) and as entrées the mee goreng(upscale) and the mango shrimp(wicked). Aside from that the service is super friendly… just an awesome awesome place. Would 100% recommend to go there…

Great food. We were referred by a friend from Vancouver and it was the best food we had on our whole vacation.

Awesome food and one of the best in Vancouver. Highly recommended!/ Don’t miss the roti(which is similar to Kerala paratta) and the chicken curry.

Went here with a big group and was pleasantly surprised at the awesome service and even better food. I know sometimes service isn’t as good with a big group, but the servers were attentive and worked quickly to make sure we all had drinks and to clear our dirty plates away. Our group ordered a bunch of appetizers to start with and everyone fell in love with the roti. Seriously, that roti was SO good! When we all ordered our mains, some people ordered more roti, just because they couldn’t get enough. No, really. It was that good! I had the chicken curry and it was super filling. I actually couldn’t finish it(maybe I had too much roti) and took my leftovers home(which tasted just as good the next day). Lots of options for everyone(vegetarians and those with gluten allergies too). Just yum!

Wow! What an awesome restaurant! Everything we ordered was so good! We actually went to this restaurant because we were not able to eat at a ramen house because there were vegetarians in our party. They have a lunch menu that is available everyday from 11am to 3 pm. They also have a vegetarian and gluten free menu, with a lot of variety. I wish I have a restaurant like this close to home.

Always great food with friendly staff … The quality seems to be consistently great. There is a few favourites such as the Sambal Green Beans and Nasi Goreng… Cozy interior with warm colours to make you feel comfy while you eat.

Best Nasi lemak I’ve ever had. Definitely coming back for it again! Although coconut rice was little too dry, it’s still awesome.

Ordered pick up today. Probably a slow day(Tuesday) and chef may not be fully on the ball. Today was the 2 for 1 special for the pineapple fried rice. Rice was somewhat bland. Had the beef curry also. That was definitely great. One of the better ones in the area. I have tried three locations(broadway, Robson and denmen). I find the Robson location the best. Been to Malaysia a few times on business. Definitely quite authentic. Like how their waiters at this location wears the traditional Malay skirt(sarongs?). Kind of like the Scottish kilt.

I decided on lunch here, on a Thursday afternoon, not very busy, lovely interior. I was seated immediately by a very sweet hostess/server. I ordered the Kung Pao Chicken and coconut rice, and a pot of lemon grass ginger tea. The food arrived promptly as well as my tea. The rice comes wrapped in a banana leaf, love that. The tea was lovely and smooth. The white cups were stained inside which didn’t make for nice presentation, and fruit flies hovered over my food for the duration of my meal. The chicken is breaded then cooked in sauce just fyi. In any case the staff are very servicing and nice, but my meal cost me over $ 30.00 which I thought was a bit much. Not a bad experience but I’d suggest less frying more freshness.

Food is great but it taste too smooth it did look, smell and taste what you can have in malaysia or singapore but it lacks a little bit of chilli. Toilet is clean. You can have lunch for or under 10 $.

Was finally able to visit this location! During my time there, the two-person staff were attentive and accommodating. The food was delicious and they even had drink specials that evening. The curry was a bit too spicy for my palette, and the manager gave us free ice cream to help cool me down. How nice! A short distance from the beach makes this location a great date night place.

Small place, good food, drinks and service and now takes reservations. Ive been to this location several times, I have a go to Malay restaurant but Banana leaf is very good. Located on Denman not a convenient location for me so rarely come here but when I do its always a good experience. On our recent visit we started with some roti canai(a must when here) and chicken satay. The roti was delish never lets me down the chicken satay were just ok. We ordered pineapple margarita yummmmmy! Though my American guest thought it was lacking alcohol we both agreed it was tasty, it was also the drink special of the day. For our mains we had curry boneless chicken, mixed steamed vegetables, nasi goreng fried rice, and mee goreng noodles. Everything tasted good, some dishes with just amount out spice. Good portions for sharing. My favourite dish was the noodle dish mee goreng. Great service, we made reservation only several hours before took us in at 7:30 pm on a busy Saturday. I will defiantly be back.
