Amazing Chicken Curry and Momos!
My experience at Bini's Kitchen was amazingly delicious. The doubling with a little curry on top and some delicious soup inside made me salivate 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.

Delicious Food, Warm Atmosphere, Excellent Service
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 Momo and Service
My experience at the restaurant was fantastic, especially for vegan options. The momo dumplings were a standout, described as light and complex in flavor. I also enjoyed the rice and lentils, which were excellent.
The service was A+.

Good food, but very expensive
My experience at this restaurant was that the food was good, and I finished everything I ordered. However, I found the price to be very expensive compared to Midwest pricing. The service was excellent, and the atmosphere was also very good.

Excellent Indian/Himalayan Food on 6th Street
My experience at this restaurant was marked by absolutely excellent Indian/Himalayan food. While you do have to brave the wilds of 6th Street, the restaurant itself is clean and pleasant. The food received a perfect score of 5, and the atmosphere and service were both rated a solid 4.
Recommended dishes include Veg and Lamb Momo, and vegetarians are highly recommended to dine here, with a dedicated vegetarian menu or section available. Parking can be difficult to find, with free street parking being an option, though 6th Street is described as a sketchy part of town. The meal was for lunch, and the price per person is estimated between $10–20.

My Absolute Favorite Vegan Spot in SF!
I FREAKING LOVE THIS PLACE SO MUCH! As a critical vegan living in SF, this is hands down one of my favorite places for food in SF, possibly even my current favorite. The vegan momos are sooo good, especially with the sauce they provide.
I get them at least a couple of times a month, always ordering on Grubhub or picking them up at the Ferry Building Farmers Market. There aren't many things I love, but this. I LOVE.

Delicious Momos and Great Service!
My experience at Bini's Kitchen was fantastic! This place is a true gem in SoMa. All the food is really good, but their momos are especially delicious and addictive. I also loved the sauce they come with.
The mango lassi was so creamy and refreshing! The nicest people work here, and visiting Bini's Kitchen always makes my day.

Delicious Food, Great Portions, Friendly Staff
My experience at this restaurant was fantastic! The food is absolutely delicious with big portions, and it's made by nice folks. For a relatively simple place, the hospitality is great.
The food is also well packaged for take-away and delivery. I live in the neighborhood and I'm usually there once or twice a week. My only wish is that they were open later.

Delicious Veggie Delights and Warm Welcome
My experience at Bini's was truly wonderful! I enjoyed the Kauli Aloo Kerau and rice, along with the chickpeas and beans, all of which were incredibly tasty. The veggie momos were delicious, especially with the amazing tomato and cilantro sauce 🤯.
The owners, Sunita and Bini, are so kind and welcoming, and I loved hearing about their inspiring story. The atmosphere was great, enhanced by lovely wall-to-ceiling windows. Sunita and Bini run a great business and make delicious food.

Terrible Food Experience
My experience at this restaurant was extremely disappointing. I ordered the combo, and it was so bad that I felt it belonged in the dustbin. The rice was uncooked, the momos were tasteless, and the chicken had no flavor.
I strongly advise against trusting the 4. 8 rating on Google. Please do not trust the 4.
8 rating on Google.
