BYO jewel, no frills. Order from the Traditional Sri Lankan and Apollo Banana Leaf Special menus first, with a stringhopper fry (fried chopped noodles ) or kothu (fried chopped paratha ) for ballast. Read more

Authentic Sri Lankan food in a rainforest, overlooking a waterfall (sort of). Tasty, cheap and BYO . What's not to like? Full review: http://scofflondon.com/restaurants/apollo-banana-leaf-review/

Great food and service. Nice change from typical curry 's. BYOB as well , good for a cheap dinner with drinks

Ignore the slightly dated décor, this place is the real deal. Food is so good. Be careful with the crab masala though, THE messiest thing I've ever eaten.

Richard Patricio

Best curry I have had in London. Distinctly south Indian which is great as this is similar to Durban curries . Mutton roll starters are an 85p treat

Daniel

One of the cheapest and best meals I've had in London. Try the Mutton Kothu , just don't have it on your own (it's BIG)

Mar Bloye

Devilled mutton and chilli chicken with saag aloo. So delicious! Friendly & efficient service too! :-)

Natalie Walton

It's got notably awful service but that's part the experience. Authentic food. Book ahead. Great dosa and byo !

Fairly average tasting food set in poor surroundings with matching service. I won't be back.

One of the best meals I’ve had in London. Fabulously creative. Not the usual suspects. I suggest you surrender to the very affordable tasing menu: meat or veg. 35£ well spent. - Brian Strauss

Amazing place for exhibitions and a few drinks at night time. Usually only a few £ to get in and it's a little vintage quirk. - Candid Magazine
