Banana Tree Battersea

The reviews for Banana Tree Battersea present a mixed sentiment regarding the experience of guests with food allergies. While some diners received attentive care and clear allergy information, notably from staff like Jinal and Nataly, others highlighted a concerning lack of comprehensive allergen checks. One reviewer explicitly warned against dining at the venue if one has allergies due to the management's stance that it is the customer's responsibility to avoid allergens.

Notably, a warning in the menu stating "if you have allergies, don't eat here" was both alarming and contradictory to the positive experiences some guests reported. Despite the challenge, those with allergies received varying levels of support, with certain staff members going above and beyond to address guests' needs. One review praised the staff for checking with the chef regarding specific ingredients, showcasing a proactive approach in some instances.

Of further concern is the inconsistency in the staff's understanding of allergens. One reviewer recounted an experience where the waiter suggested a dish containing chili, despite the guest's explicit allergy. This inconsistency reflects a potential training gap within the restaurant regarding food safety and allergen awareness.

Overall, while there are commendable efforts from some staff to cater to allergies, the recurring warnings and mixed staff responses suggest that individuals with food allergies might face significant risks and should exercise caution when dining at Banana Tree Battersea.
