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.

Hallmark of a small business that takes pride in itself, is an owner who, after closing, will still let you in, and serve and cook a meal for you since you came by. Bini’s dedication to her customers shows. I came rather late at closing time and they were already cleaned up, ready to go, but they still opened up and made my order…talk about great service!! .I got the gurkha cchicken and chicken momos, and it was delicious!! The momos are new to me, never heard of it until I looked up this restaurant - they were scrumptious and kind of like xiao long baos, but with this out of the world orange sauce that if I didn’t know better can become the new addiction problem for SF. The gurkha chicken was equally tasty with huge chunks of meat and amazing sauce served over plenty of rice.Do yourself a favor and visit if you haven’t. Price point is fair too. Can’t wait to go back and try the other items on menu.

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.

This place was near my hotel and I heard great things about the food so it was a must try. I ordered gurkha chicken, vegetable momos and a drink. The staff was super friendly and the food was delicious. It’s a shame I can’t bring momos back to nyc but I’ll definitely be back.

pretty good food. Chicken was good and flavorful. Momo wrapping was chewy and light. I found the pork to be a little salty. Roti could have been flakier. Lassi was great!

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!

Food was really tasty, fast, and reasonably-priced, especially for SF.Vegetarian options: Indian and Nepali food is the original vegetarian food.

The best momos in the Bay Area. This restaurant would make such a cute date night while still have a comfort food vibe. Haven’t tried as many menu items as I’d like but they really support the SF community (especially through the Pandemic)!

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 init was a little pricey but honestly for the quality and large portion, it was a great valueI would definitely come back!

My first time having Bini's.Stopped by the Bini's stand at OutsideLands.I ordered the turkey momo combo plate with chicken curry. The momos were so yummy and the chicken curry was flavorful. My favorite dish from OSL!
