Banana Leaf Apolo in Singapore is renowned for its authentic Indian cuisine, especially fish head curry and biryani, maintained over decades. The restaurant offers a traditional dining experience served on banana leaves, with friendly service and generous portions. Despite its popularity and consistent quality, recent reviews highlight concerns over rising prices, inconsistent food quality, and service delays. Many patrons praise staff like Thiagarajan and Kannan for their attentive hospitality. While some express disappointment over hygiene issues or value for money, the overall impression remains that of a beloved, long-standing establishment with a strong cultural appeal.
