Banana Leaf 127-129 Marlowes, Hemel Hempstead HP1 1BB

"First time visit (after personal recommendation). Really enjoyed the food. (Put on 3lbs.) Pepsi available as opposed to coke which we prefer. Overall, it was a really enjoyable visit."

"Fantastic experience although a bit on the pricey end, it is worth every penny. My partner had an allergen and the staff took it very seriously and were focused on providing her with egg free food. Manager was very friendly as were all staff"

"• This is a bit of a mixed experience so here goes. • Come here on the 8th January for fiancées birthday and also had takeaways from here before and from reading the great reviews online. Let's start with the food itself. The 3 stars is for the food only. Some were great and some not so. • The Good: • Wasabi Prawns • Beef in black bean sauce • Chilli Beef • King Po prawns • Not so good: • Salt and pepper squid (thick batter) • Salt and pepper prawns (way to much coating and not cooked enough as left flour taste in your mouth) • *Ribs (More fat than a sumo line dancer) The Staff 0 * rating Could do with actually going on a training course to actually speak to your paying customers politely as we are all paying customers and not just a quick meal and get you out. None of them had any manners and you are told where to sit and not allowed to be seated anywhere else when we asked. So the table we ask to sit on as was bigger than the chessboard table we was put on was refused point blankly but 5 minutes later a couple walked in and was put on the table we asked for. Yes you could call it a communications breakdown but still a smile or being polite to your customers costs nothing. Lastly the the people that actually come here for dinner, seriously make an effort to actually wear something nice to a restaurant, for one moment we thought we was eating at a soup kitchen. Yes you go there to eat and you’re probably saying right now “bloody nosey posh petty snobby people............ far from it. Will order future takeaways from here but a very forgettable dining experience."

"Bloody fantastic! So much food for such a reasonable price. Unlike most all you can eats the food was of a really good quality. Will definitely be going back. P.s. get the wasabi prawns"
