Booked for Corporate Function

Fantastic service provided by friendly staff. The food was exceptional and enjoyed by everyone. Would not hesitate to book again!

Debbie Eades3 Sep 2025

Booked for Wedding

Justin has been friendly, professional and quick to respond leading up to our event (my daughter’s wedding). It was pouring with rain on the day and Justin set himself up under the gazebo, standing there for over an hour, remaining cheerful throughout. His service was first class, friendly and helpful, and the ice cream was delicious. The perfect addition to a magical day (despite the rain!!). I would definitely recommend - thanks Justin!

Booked for Celebration

Great pizzas, really nice people and a fairly seamless experience from start to finish. Wouldn't hesitate to use them again or recommend to others

Booked for Birthday party

Delicious, flavorsome food, Banana Leaf were very accommodating and flexible with their menu choices. I was hosting a family event and had a considerable number of children attending. Furthermore, I had a number of vegetarian guests and one very seriously dairy intolerant guest despite these hurdles Shahid was able to accommodate all these dietary requirements. Communication was excellent and all my queries were answered promptly. My guests and I found the food to be absolutely delicious and I recommend Shahid and his team whole heartedly. The only reason I haven’t awarded the full 5 stars is because set up was a little less smooth than I’d hoped for, but this was only a minor glitch and didn’t affect my or my guest’s enjoyment.
