Canteen-style Indochinese venue with an open kitchen and communal tables 

Banana Tree Westbourne Grove

Super delicious food, everything was made super fresh.
The Pad Thai was super flavourful and the prawns and vegetable rolls were super crisp.
The atmosphere is super cozy and pretty inside, with the staff super attentive to make sure your happy with your service. I was served by Rohit and his service was amazing.
Will definitely be back!

Amazing place I love it here the staff are always friendly the atmosphere is nice. The food is great good portions and I love the 2 for 1 drinks. I love the vegan options here so much verity and clearly labelled vegan on the menu.

Really tasty great quality food. The quality of food was fresh fruit juices were freshly squeezed. Elijah and Elvin provided a great service.

Top notch coconut icecream. Good value for money considering the quality of food provided. But for a family of 4 with student discount and kids eat free was about £60. Lost a start as dont take cash.

Beautiful food. Good portions, couldn't finish my main. Would come again.

Good selection of food and drinks. If you like cocktails this is the place for you! I wish we had one of these back home. Definitely recommend a visit

All chicken and beef on our menu is Halal.

Banana Tree

I had a great time with my friends. The food was really good and the ambience was perfect. Our servers were really polite and fun to be around. They made the whole night all night more enjoyable. Thank you, Priya, DJ and Ali. I’m looking forward to coming back again, Luxa and the rise in the banana leaf and the noodles. It was all really good but my favourite was the sweet-and-sour chicken

Food was delicious so does drinks (2for1 was nice deal) but service was pretty bad. You have to download their food menu (drink menu is on the paper) but can’t order online and have to call waitress to take your order. We were told that we need to pay “online” bit system basically doesn’t work and once again we needed to call waitress so we could pay. What’s the point of having app instead of paper menu if the app doesn’t work and is useless?
We decided to do not pay service charge which has been already included(12.5%) as it was basically too much in our opinion for service which we have received. There was just a few costumers and at the end we were alone but needed to call stuff more than twice when we wanted to pay.

Had a lovely dinner at banana tree, there was 2 for one on cocktails which included mocktails for those driving, which were delicious!

The food was really yummy & full of flavour. We certainly didn’t leave hungry.

Service was good & we had no complaints. Would return again.

I was served by two lovely ladies Otgi and Priya.The food choice was exceptional. I hope they can make papaya salad with Chicken and more prawn and beef option. Such a variety always coming here only that l moved, so it's a real treat when l come to Banana tree in Battersea. The service was wonderful.

The service was great, the food (Chicken Pad Thai) was AMAZING and the lychee martini was good. Would totally recommend this place to anyone that wants to try a chicken pad Thai for the first time.

The food is reasonably priced but the cocktails are a bit expensive considering there wasn't a lot of alcohol in it.

Banana Tree West Hampstead

Lovely food, lively atmosphere, quick service, reasonably priced for London. I say this because if you're not a Londoner you might find the cocktails pricey but they do have happy hour so there's that! Anyway, back to the point, I've been to 2 different locations, great both times! Definitely recommend.

Excellent selection of cocktails and drinks, with happy hour 2 for 1 (same drink). The Piña Colada were delicious and well made.
For food, we had starter sized Laksa the tofu and the chicken ones which were hot, rich and slightly spicy. For mains we had the Blackened Monks Noodles with sweetcorn fritter balls and the Yum Yum Salad with grilled beef. All meals were delicious I would recommend!
Lost star only because the service was very slow, staff seemed to not be very attentive to their customers.

Very good,relaxed, friendly,good portion size and good tasty food. Highly recommended. Would visit again.thanks fiends had Thai curry, I had pad Thai and we both had spring rolls, all very tasty thanks.

Such a wonderful restaurant.
Great seating, clean. I had the loveliest server called Victoria - she was brilliant. Gave me a fantastic recommendation for late lunch/ early dinner. Felt really luck to be there at happy hour! The portions of food are generous and delicious!

Have return again since then- the portions are wonderfully generous. The Vietnamese coffee tastes great too!

Definitely recommend this restaurant!

Great pan Asian dishes, very warm and friendly staff, profesional service, great atmosphere, and reasonable prices. What more could you ask for? Highly recommended 10/10

Banana Tree Islington

I really like banana tree! it is really tasty always great service and a real value for money! Well done guys. Today a waitress gave a loyalty card. She was very polite and nice. Will come back again! 5/5

Edit 16.04 Another amazing experience and tastes! I had the soup with noodles and chicken and the prawns for starter. Delicious. Also Marina was super helpful. We'll done guys!

Loved it!!! I went with my cousin for lunch. We ordered Vegan Singapore laksa and blackened monks noodles.
Worth every penny, taste was bang on, decent portions and cocktails were really good too. Great experience - highly recommend!

Trust me you won’t get disappointed, full of  flavour and test with excellence of the presentation combined will made your day. Plus the ambience was perfect. Our servers were really polite and helpful. I will definetley come back again

We had a great experience at Banana Tree Islington. The food was delicious, it tasted fresh and so well presented. My favourite was the Laksa soup for starter. There are so many vegan options and variety of vegan alternatives (vegan pieces, tofu and another one I don't remember).  Prices are OK, I would expect a little less. Also 2 for 1 cocktails.

Delightful evening. Canteen style, flavoursome food.
Wasn’t a fan of the kefir leaf prawn
But the Thai green curry with chicken was 💕
Some foods are halal. Please check with them when u attend.

Ngopi UK

I went there yesterday to try its lapis legit cake. It was quite nice. The sweetness was proper and the appearance was quite good as well. I also ordered a chocolate muffin and there were a lot chocolate inside, quite delicious too. I will come again for other Indonesian desserts.

Had the pleasure of trying out few of their coffee and all are amazing. Great little place in the heart of Dalston lane. Super friendly staff that explained the different varieties... A fantastic addition to this unique street in Hackney.

When I tell you I SPRINTED here first thing in the morning after finding out this place existed, I am not kidding.

The iced kopi susu was delicious, which I can only describe as like an Indonesian version of a Vietnamese iced coffee. Sweetened with palm sugar, and a hit of extra strong coffee.

Can't wait to come back and try the food 😊

Love the coffee, nice place, friendly staffs, gotta try their indomie toastie for my next visit👍🏻

Cosy little place in the heart of Dalston - super sweet staff also. I had the bakso (beef meatball soup) and teh tarik (sweet milk tea) and they were all great. Will definitely come back and try out all other snack options!!

Pinos Warung

As an Indonesian learner living in a city with no Indonesian restaurants, I've come to Pino's Warung a couple of times in hopes of speaking Indonesian and meeting some people. However, the popularity of the place makes this a bit impossible - always pretty busy! Testifies to the quality of the food. Prices are also good, and there's a bit of space you can sit down in and hang out while you eat as well. Recommended.

A gem within Camden Market. Authentic, unique and tasty Indonesian street food that is obviously very popular with the local Indonesian community. The staff are warm and welcoming, and seem to  be very proud in their creations, so don't feel shy to ask questions if you're curious. They also have a selection of Indonesian snack you can take home with you.

The taste was satisfactory. No problem with the food authenticity. However, the experience was quite off. The owner seems to be nicer towards the locals instead of his fellow Indonesian. Not very spacious as well as it gets very hot inside.

The most authentic Indonesian foods in London. Fun and friendly staffs. Best rendang, bakso and chicken satay with variant special authentic dishes every week. Good portion with good price. My place to go whenever I miss home cook Indonesian foods.

Absolutely delicious food. If you want legit Indonesian flavour and service then head to Pinos. I’m just sad it’s not closer to my house.

7 Sheaveshill Ave

Jakarta

Unfussy venue serving classic Malaysian dishes

All our meats (chicken, beef, lamb, shrimp) are sourced from a Halal supplier. However we do serve pork in the same kitchen so we are not certified. Chicken curry, beef rendang are all cooked separately. For stir fries, our wok is cleaned after cooking each dish.

Gluten and dairy free Indonesian street food

Makatcha Indonesian Street Kitchen

Really enjoyed lunch today the food was exceptionally good. The portion size was so large I had to take it away. The chef was so friendly and came o we to check we were happy with the food. Love the fact it’s halal. I had the Mee Goreng which I highly recommend.

I have been ordering here lately from Deliveroo. Not only is the food phenomenal, but there is always a personalised hand written note that comes with the order - what a way to provide great service during lock-down! I look forward to eating here in person when all this is over.

Was absolutely happy with my first time order and on my second time ordering Nasi Goreng (with prawn added), something taste wrong. The prawn doesn't seem to be fresh, the dish was not as good as first time (a week ago) and I've had stomach discomfort after having the meal yesterday. This is really disappointing... :( please do not use nearly expire ingredients especially seafood.

Very good gluten free food. We had never tried Indonesian food, it was a nice find. Love the taste of coconut. Absolutely perfect!

Makatcha

The food quality was good. Service was good even though it took a while for the food to come out. This is not a negative comment because it proves that the food is made to order. 
I preferred the rice with shrimp to the noodles with shrimp. There was a suitable amount of shrimp in both dishes.
I also had the roti with the vegan chutney.

On the whole this restaurant provides you with street food. Good quality and good prices.

Had the coconut chicken curry and it was absolutely fantastic. Wonderfully flavourful and just the right amount of spice. The chicken was cooked very well and was tender, and the undertones of coconut paired beautifully with the rice and chilli. Service was quick and friendly. Overall a fantastic meal experience, I highly recommend this place!

The beef rendang, mee goreng and roti pratha were all delicious! The portion sizes are enormous too! Would highly recommend!

Halal Indonesian food from @nusadualondon. Who have great chicken satay. Pictured is the mixed platter for two.

@halalfoodguy's review of Nusa Dua Shaftesbury Ave on Instagram

📍 Nusa Dua, Chinatown @nusadualondon

My husband fancied a last minute trip up to Chinatown on Thursday. I was reluctant to join because we hadn’t booked anywhere, I HATE queuing for food and I knew it was going to be super busy because of the Jubilee Bank Holiday.

Post husbands charm I agreed to come out. Regretted it tbh.

@rasasayang_london was closed for an hour when we arrived (hubs and everyone else it seems loves this place, I’m a little on the fence). After accepting defeat we settled for this place.

#naziaate :
➜ Mixed platter for 2 - £14.50
Chicken satay, spring rolls and chicken wings
➜ Mie Goreng Komplit - £12.80
Fried noodles with shredded chicken, prawns and fried fish
➜ Nasi Goreng Komplit - £12.80
Fried rice with shredded chicken, prawns and fried fish

Mixed platter - the satay was burnt to a crisp and clearly reheated (I think all of the food was tbh) it was black (pic 3) the only thing that saved this was the chicken wings which were a strong 7/10

Noodles - arrived room temp but overcooked, chicken was literally thrown on top, only flavour I could taste was soy sauce I got excited when I bit into a piece of garlic and paid basically £5 extra for 2 overcooked prawns - 4/10

Nasi goreng wasn’t to my taste.

Definitely don’t think I’d return for the main menu, I have seen some good reviews on the unlimited hot pots so may return to try that.

@naziaeats's review of Nusa Dua Shaftesbury Ave on Instagram

Nusa Dua

The food it self was quite ok. The dessert, even trying second time was bed. Dry and an horrible taste. I really don't recommend, if that was a best Indonesian food representation, I will never have again.

Was.looking for a halal restaurant in Soho and came across Nusa Dua. I cam honestly say at first I was a bit sceptical as it didn't look very welcoming. To my surprise the food was delicious.My friend and I decided to go for the set menu. This was a 3 course meal. For £25 you get soup, spring rolls, a variety of dishes, rice, and dessert plus a drink. We were served by yuhanis (not sure if I spelt that right 😊) He was very welcoming and very helpful. I can't wait to visit again. If you are looking for a good night, eat as much as you like then I highly recommend you visit.

I’ve been here twice now over the last 2 years and it’s not been ideal either time. Something about the food if a bit off in terms of flavour. I’ve tried multiple dishes and it’s just not that great but there are some highlights such as them having a lot of options to choose from and that they also serve halal.

I give it three stars because on our last visit, my friend sent back the chicken dish as the chicken was definitely not fresh. They replaced it with a different dish. We let them choose any replacement as long as the meat was fresh so she swapped it with a beef version which was fresh. I just don’t know why that had to happen to begin with. Chicken is a cheap protein, and for the price you pay you would expect them to cook it when you order it. I’m not sure if I’ll come here again but I’ll be sure to pick carefully if I do.

Stay clear of this restaurant. My group ordered 3 dishes. Nasi goreng for £12.80 (which was only as big as my rather small hand), Ayam sambal (sambal chicken) for £18.80, and Sop Buntut for £18.80 (ox tail soup).

The fried rice was bland and not even Indonesian. Rather it's Chinese, and I don't think the Chinese would call this a plate of fried rice either.

The Ayam sambal should be called Chicken with chili oil. This is not the ayam sambal that I have always known. Practically, this mis-labelled dish is a blasphemy to Indonesian cuisine.

Finally, the sop buntut was okay, I guess.. I have never had an Indonesian sop buntut before. So, I cannot comment much. Nonetheless, the ox tail soup was uninspiring to the bland side.

For context, I came here during Christmas day 2022 and this was the only restaurant without long queue around the area. This should be a signal for a bad restaurant. But, we gave them a chance and tried dining in anyways.

When seated, we were given a special menu for Christmas. Understandably, the prices was marked up to the moon. However, reading the other reviews in hindsight, the prices was horrendously expensive to begin with. On top of that, we still need to pay £6.3 for the service charge, a daylight robbery considering the service we got.

It was one of my favorite spots to have hotpot however the venue needs a renewal.
The chili chicken broth used to be so flavorful but now it’s just okay.
The toilet was absolutely horrible. Taps were out of order and the toilets were so dirty. One of the lady literally wee on the floor(there was a puddle on the floor), when I walked into it. Nobody cleaned it for the second time I had used.
