    £6.90 for an adults all you can eat meal. Staff great,
    very friendly and helpful. Food is delicious.

    Toilets are FREEEZING in winter. Could see my breath as I was shivering! Please put the heating on in there.

    I'll be back again very soon, thanks for a lovely meal.

    Crap, cheap food.
    Cheap though....if you're the type to shop at Iceland, you'll love it.

    Very cheap, but you do get what you pay for!

    I'm a lover of meat, but I have a few veggie friends, and there isn't much variety here. Drinks are cheap too as Middlesbrough tend to be, but I won't go back after they tried to charge me for tap water, which I had the understanding is a little bit illegal.

    But... If you need a quick cheap Chinese fix, this'll do you!

    The first time i went to Banana Leaf was with some of my friends from university as we saw an advertisement showing that the restaurant only charged £5.50 for an all you can eat buffet which includes everything from starters to ice cream! It depends on what time of day you go, but usually the earlier you eat, the less you have to pay, so i usually go fairly early as it suits a student budget very well, and you never go away hungry. The only drawback about the Banana eaf is that you cannot book a table, so it is sometimes difficult to get seated during busy periods.

    Overall it is a good place to eat, especially if you have a tight budget.

    The buffet deal here is quite good value  if you eat anything! However, as a vegetarian it was very difficult to tell which dishes were suitable and even when we were told I wasn't 100% certain that they hadn't been contaminated by the nearby meat dishes.
    The food I had tasted ok but it wasn't anything special.
    We went with a very large group of friends (10+) and they were happy to make room for us all to sit together.
    Everyone had a great time although the large amounts of alcohol might've had something to do with that!
