The Banana Leaf Apolo (race Course Road)

This restaurant in Singapore is the ultimate spot for Indian cuisine. A must-visit establishment that offers both North and South Indian dishes. The staff is incredibly friendly, the ambiance is always clean, and the location is convenient.

The restaurant is conveniently located in the vibrant neighborhood of Little India. The staff is very courteous and the food is a true journey through Indian flavors.

The food at this restaurant is fantastic, with a wide variety of Indian dishes to choose from. We ordered the deliciously spicy chicken masala, the dish of the day, as well as the spicy prawns, chicken tikka, and mutton breyani. The portions are generous and sharing is encouraged. The use of banana leaves as plates adds a nice touch, and using your hands to eat is part of the experience. We enjoyed the food so much that we ordered takeout for the rest of our stay in Singapore, and they deliver to almost every area.

One of the best Indian restaurants in Singapore. There is a genuine effort to make the food taste as authentic as possible. The chef's special garlic naan and peshawari naan(with cashews and almonds) are a highlight dishes. Do try the paloda starters as they are hot and melt in the mouth. The portion sizes were huge for the starters and less small for the mains. The service and ambience were lovely and this place is one of the shining lights of little India. It is slightly pricey but that is expected from Indian food at Singapore.Taste: 4/5.Quality: 5/5.Ambience: 4.5/5.Value for money: 4/5.

As one of the more well-know restaurants in Little India, at The Banana Leaf Apolo you can expect a more tourist-based clientele, upmarket surroundings and some higher prices to match. However, the quality of the Indian delights served up here speak for themselves, with house specialities such as their fish head curry and Masala chicken all particularly impressing us. The inspiration for the name, Banana Leaf Apolo, will become clear once you receive your food, as many of their dishes are served on banana leaves instead of plates – a famous dining practise in this neighbourhood and across India.
