A gem in SoMa; The momos were really yummy and the combo was really filling.

Ordered Veg Momos (10 Pc.) to go. The taste was good. I liked the red dry chutney they gave along with the momos. I can easily eat 2 plates of these momos. The ambience is a small little place to have quick food. Price is also acceptable.

Fantastic Nepalese food in the heart of an up and coming SOMA neighborhood. I’ve had lunch here four or five times, and the food is delicious, super authentic, and very consistent. The restaurant is situated in the ground floor of a newer building, so the dining area has polished concrete floors and filled with light, with a beautiful design. If you’re living or working downtown, this should definitely be on your list to check out.

I FREAKING LOVE THIS PLACE SO MUCH! as a critical vegan living in sf, this is hands down one (might even be my current fav) place for food in sf! the vegan momos are sooo good especially with the sauce they give me! i get it at least a couple times a month (always order it on grubhub or get it at the ferry building farmers market). there aren’t many things i love but this … I LOVE.

This place is amazing! I randomly chanced upon it and saw all the great reviews, and I’m so glad—I will be back here often! I got the gurkha chicken, the kwati (a vegan bean chili), and 4 lamb momos. Everything was delicious and fresh, portions were enormous as you can see, and service was really friendly, lovely, and fast. The space is airy, comfortable, and clean. I can also see this being a great takeout option, since the food definitely travels well. And that chili crisp!!! Wow!

Chicken and pork was tender and well-seasoned, the momo dumplings were particularly delicious. Highly recommend, the staff was polite and dining area was clean.

Ordered at their booth at the ferry building market on Saturday. Rly good portions for the price and gave us an extra momo :) You can taste how fresh the ingredients are. Rly enjoyed the tangy sauce on the veggie momos. Chicken curry was great but rice was hard and had a weird texture. Would recommend the momos and curry! Good option at the farmers market, not scammy like $20 for a toast or smt.

Bini’s catered a party for a non-profit I volunteer with. The food was flavorful and yummy. Momos (like Chinese Shanghai dumplings without soup), rice pilaf with cinnamon, chicken curry, a vegetarian tofu & veggie stew, stewed eggplant. Omg, it was so good!

The best lunch spot in all of SF!! The Kauli veggie dish was amazing, and the momos were perfect!! I could eat the Gurkha chicken everyday, honestly. The atmosphere was very nice and the staff were super friendly. I’ll definitely be coming back 🙂.

Amazing food, amazing space, and amazing value!! The Gurkha chicken was incredibly flavorful, yet light. The pork choila had a great mix of spices and the meat was tender and moist. The cauliflower dish will make you love cauliflower if you didn’t before. Of course, THE MOMOS. Fantastic. I wish they’d ship because I’d keep them in my freezer year round. Keep doing what y’all are doing!!

Went to the Saturday farmers market at the Ferry Building and Bini’s has a little stall. Tried the Turkey and lamb momos, both were great. Slight edge for the turkey momos! It was so juicy and perfectly seasoned. The tomato sauce they douse the momos in is fantastic. You can get a 50 pack of frozen turkey momos for $50 right now ($75 for the lamb).

Wow! awesome food and super authentic; everything tasted fresh and you could see the old ladies making it in front of you. Bright, well lit space that was very comfortable for dining in it was a little pricey but honestly for the quality and large portion, it was a great value I would definitely come back!

Delicious veggie momos, eggplant, and daal. Generously portioned, wholesome meal with almost no wait time. Also supports a La Cocina female food entrepreneur!

We had a blast! The taste of food was authentic and every bite was blissful. We digged into every single piece of rice and vegetables.

Bini's Kitchen is so amazingly delicious. The doubling with a little curry on top and a some delicious soup inside. I'm salivating just describing it. I highly recommend the chicken curry with momo dumplings lunch special. It's amazing. You owe it to yourself to check it out.

We dined in for lunch and also ordered 100 frozen dumplings a day in advance to pick up after our meal. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with such kindness—our server offered great advice on the menu and even helped us figure out how to taste two different dishes and dumplings without overordering. The meal was absolutely delicious, with beautifully balanced, bright flavors that lingered long after we finished. The neighborhood may be going through a rough patch, but once you step inside, the outside world fades away. It’s a warm, inviting spot that’s clearly run with care and pride.

Excellent vegan option; the momo dumplings are light and complex in flavor. Excellent rice and lentils; A+ service.

This place is such a gem in SoMa! All the food is really good, but their momos are especially delicious and addictive, and I love the sauce they come with too. And mango lassi - so creamy and refreshing! The nicest people work here, visiting Bini's Kitchen always makes my day.

Went with a group and they kindly put two tables together. The food was tasty and the portions for a plate were large. We got one order of roti abd probably wouldn't get it again for the price, plus the plates had enough rice to eat with the other items.

Neat, clean restaurant with Napalese specialties. Has 6-7 items on the menu. Tried the gurkha chicken and momo. The chicken was very tender and delicious, the spices for the sauce seemed tone down. The momos were tasty, could use a little more flavor.
