“It’s cozy, good and fast service and the food is high quality. We got the top secret and hamachi carpaccio which I would definitely get again, then for main dish we ordered curry rice (little bit of spice, nice crispy pork) and mentaiko yaki udon (flavorful, not too heavy noodles were perfectly cooked) which were good but would want to try other items that also looked good on the menu. Definitely recommend!“

“Blown away! Sitting at the chef’s bar was an outstanding experience. The chef made recommendations; he is a true artist of his craft - what a delight to watch. The nigiri/sushi is classic with no frills, relying completely on the quality of the fish and the expertise of the chef. What a local gem!“

“Such a special place. Similar to La Ciccia, Binu Bonu maintains a lovely neighborhood feel. Huge selection of wine (all of it new to me and something I really liked), wonderful charcuterie type small plates (out of this world olives). The stars are the husband and wife that make the magic place happen.“

My girlfriend said it was the best she ever had. The Galbi Steak was also great. I recommend paying the extra $5 for the lettuce wraps and samjang. Overall, I had a great time & great date with my girlfriend. I felt the food was worth the price.“

“Passing through SFO and stopped in for a flatbread. So glad I did! Zane was behind the bar and make the experience so enjoyable. He recommended the perfect glass of wine to accompany my food and I enjoyed it so much that I opted for a second round. He was kind, knowledgeable and really made the airport dining experience stress free. I’ll definitely be stopping in again the next time I’m town.“

“What an amazing place for sushi. I was town and a local suggested this place an I was not let down. I started with the spicy garlic edemame which he's a great kick of spice. I them had akani red tuma dashing and a flame roll. The sushi was perfect and the spice of the flame roll was squelch with my Nigerian sake! I could eat at the this place daily.“

“Really great food menu! We were actually so-so on the drinks, but warrants another try. The drinks were fairly straightforward and paired much better with the food than standalone.

Low-octane: Castaway - not that offensive but it didn't make me like sherry.
Lean&mean: Mad Artist - really strong tasting, not that much to balance it.

HOWEVER, the food was a highlight! Favs were the cumin tofu tacos and devil egg. The tacos were so flavorful especially with the green hummus, and really tasty homemade tortilla. The devil egg is a must-order, instead of boring mayo it's a really fragrant chili crisp/ salsa macha.

We'll definitely come back for dinner and maybe try some other drinks!“

“My girlfriend and I recently tried this sushi spot near us, and we’re honestly so glad we did. It was pretty quiet when we went, but don’t let that fool you—the food and service were both amazing.

We started with the hamachi carpaccio, pork belly skewers, and spicy tuna tacos. Everything was fresh and full of flavor, but the pork belly skewers were especially a standout—so good.

For our rolls, we got two spicy tuna rolls, a spicy salmon roll, and a dragon roll. All of them were delicious, well-made, and super satisfying.

To top it off, the staff surprised us with a complimentary dessert at the end (it looked like a rose and had a green tea/matcha flavor). Such a thoughtful touch and a perfect way to end the meal.

Service was excellent—friendly, attentive, and welcoming. The location is super convenient, and parking was easy, which is always a plus.

Overall, we had a great experience and will definitely be coming back regularly. Highly recommend giving this place a try!“

“Great food and service ! Love the ambience and variety offerings“

“I enjoyed coming here. All the servers are really cool and casual. It's definitely like a little bit of a party environment in this restaurant - everyone is just having a good time. The sushi is good. The head chef was really awesome and just came to our table various times and explained what he was doing. He was serving us and it's just a really great vibe. They have an $11.99 all-you-can-drink special, so $11.99 per person. I'll definitely be coming back. They also have this weird robot thing, so the service is super fast despite only being one or two servers for the whole restaurant. I think I'll definitely be coming back and maybe even hosting a party here or something like that.“

“Everything on the menu needs to be experienced.“

“Fun charming, local wine bar“

“Absolutely delicious! This restaurant is Halal. We ordered the Chicken platter and the Lamb and Beef combo wrap with Hummus. It was delicious and the quantity was large as well. The wrap was stuffed with meat and the platter was as well. Definitely recommend.“

“If you’re looking for the best smash burger in Burlingame, look no further than Lilikoi. The food is consistently great, and the service is some of the friendliest I’ve experienced. A huge bonus is their delivery service to nearby bars—it’s the perfect setup for a night out. Highly recommend!“
