Banana Leaf - Glasgow City

Ordered a takeaway from Uber eats and have to say it's some of the worst food I've ever eaten. Well I say eaten most of it straight in the bin. The temperature was cold and that was not just because of delivery time. The food was stale as if it had been from day before. The so called vegetable curry was just chic peas with absolutely no vegetables. The chicken curry was disgusting. The spiced onions the worst I have ever tasted the onions must have been months old and the bread so stale I could have patched a roof with. I honestly don't often go overboard but this was seriously one of the worst meals I've ever had. Avoid at all costs.

Wonderful meal! we both had a mini set…one chicken and one veg. Both really hit the spot. Serve was quick and friendly. Meal came promptly and was hot and delicious.

Was underwhelmed by this place, having eaten before at the one in the West End and found their dosas to be good. Ate the veg mini buffet meal which comprised too much rice, two chapatis, two papad, a chickpea curry, a sambar, and poriyal (it's a choice between poryial or raita you don't get both but should really get a curd with this included). The chickpeas and poriyal were just ok didn't feel like there was that much masala in them and weren't that spicy, and neither was the sambar. Felt more homestyle but not in a good way (ie. you could make it better yourself at home). Place was freezing too as they door was kept open and initial service was slow. Added to that the prize of £10 as stated on the menu turned out to be £12 on the bill. Sneaky (and a mark off my review just for that). Wouldn't be back in a hurry, based on this visit, given there are several other much better South Indian places.

I have been a regular banana leaf customer for years, from their old premises in the West end to their new updated St. Vincent street restaurant. The food is second to none, Very flavourful and a great variety on the menu, I have my favourites but also like to try new things occasionally and am never disappointed. The staff are friendly and remember us from previous visits and are always happy to see us return, the decor is nice with a chilled atmosphere, the price is exceptionally cheap particularly for a city centre establishment. The service is typically quick and the food arrives shortly after order on most occasions, there is also the added bonus of bring your own bottle with no corkage. I will continue to visit regularly and support this fine establishment.

Only 5 minutes walk from Buchanan Street this little basement restaurant was a fantastic find. Great South Indian food, great service and great value for money. Enjoyed it so much we ate here twice during our stay in Glasgow.
