This stand is located at the Sunday farmers market at Stonestown. There is hardly any seating, usually very busy. The tacos are so good and the sauces are great! The horchata is too sweet for my liking, but it's decent. We come here every week!

Pork tamale with salsa
D W.

This is just a review of the pork tamale and I think it's excellent. Unlike other pork tamales I've had the meat isn't stringy and there's a small bit of fat chopped up with the meat mix making it more succulent. Flavor is good!

Al pastor tacos
Wesley S.

Got al pastor tacos with sour cream and cheese. They were oily and messy to eat but they tasted pretty good. Price was $3 for just al pastor and $1 extra for the sour cream and cheese. I would order from here again if I'm in the area.

al pastor tacos, asada tacos, horchata, hibiscus drink

I came here with my friend when we went to the Clement Street farmers market. We got asada and al pastor tacos, and hibiscus and horchata drinks. The tacos were both really good, with a good portion of meat and fresh and pickled veggies. The al pastor definitely had more flavor than the asada, but both were good in my opinion. I also enjoyed the salsa and pickles, although I couldn't fit it all in the tacos and ended up eating the pickles separately. The drinks were both quite sweet, but the horchata had a nice cinnamon flavor and the hibiscus was refreshing.

"Breakfast burrito." Actually a wet, flavorless mess.

Avoid at all costs. Sadly, I have nothing good to say about this experience. This is the first time Tamales Martha showed up to the Stonestown Farmer's market. I'd give zero stars if possible for the food and hygiene. The horchata and agua fresca were good, so I guess they deserve one star. Just look at that photo of a "breakfast burrito" supposedly with chorizo. It was just a bland, wet mess. Oddly, I tasted cloves in there somewhere, but that was the only flavor. Just can't discern any of the ingredients. This place has clearly been around for a while as the tent was well worn in, and the cash box was black with filth. My guess is they hit up a new farmer's market, then work it until everyone has tried it once and given up, then they move on to the next.

People waiting for their food.

So slow. I've been waiting about 45 for 1 quesabirria. Missed most of the festival waiting for food. Never again.

The tamales are disgusting. The masa is dry and has a strange taste to it. Seriously, Trader Joe's frozen tamales are better!

This is a food stand for to-go only, no seating. It's tucked away a bit in Fidi. This place is one…read moreof my favorite food stands in Outsidelands for a few years now, so I am glad I found the actual location now. The serving size is decent and the dumplings are great with the sauce they have. I got the lamb momo and it hit the spot. The food came out pretty fast, minimal wait. If you are looking for a light lunch or a snack then this is the place to go to.

Note that this is a food stand with no seating; for to-go only…read more Bini's has become one of my go-to lunch spots on a work day whenever I want something clean, hearty, and filling. I also love how quick the service is - I never have to wait more than a minute for my order! The food is also always pipping hot. My regular orders on rotation (I'd give them all 5 stars!): Chicken Momos ($14) - Comes in 8 pieces. The dumplings are large, flavorful, with the perfect skin-to-meat ratio. It is served with Bini's spicy tomato cilantro sauce on top; the sauce is delicious with just a slight/mild kick. Vegetarian Momos ($12) - Comes in 8 pieces. Vegan dumplings filled with tofu, carrots, & cabbage. Also served with the spicy tomato cilantro sauce on top. I love how clean yet tasty this is! Vegetarian Combo ($18) - Comes with 4 vegetarian momos and one veggie side served on top of fragrant basmati rice. For the sides, I love the Baigun Bharta, a tomato-based braised eggplant. It's saucey and pairs extremely well with the rice. The only reason I'd dock off half a star for this combo is the price. You can also mix and match the momos. For a more balanced meal, I request half chicken and half vegetarian ($14). Bini's also has a stand outside the Ferry Building every Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday. I'd like to give a shoutout to the Bini's servers at the Ferry Building - they're very generous & usually give me 9 pieces of momos whenever I ask for half chicken and half vegetarian (usually 4 chicken & 5 vegetarian).

For the month of July 2024, La Coccina's stand at the Ferry Farmer's Market is a Panamanian food…read morestand as titled here. I walked by the weekend after the 4th, but there was a small crowd and I had appointments so I didn't stop by. The following Saturday, I found the opportunity to stop and chap with the chef owner, Julieta. Reading all of the info on the table about her company, I then studied the menu. Wanting to try as many things as I could, I ordered the combo with the Pollo empanada (https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=saJuyv784apZzH--psHZ3Q&start=48&select=ZczDON-aR9OA_VKb97zfow), which came with an orange limeade drink (https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=saJuyv784apZzH--psHZ3Q&start=48&select=7HuB84nrruQ3gQrkudoSSQ). The pollo is described as braised chicken with wine and capers. It came with a garliky (sp) mayo sauce and a Panamanian habanero mango hot sauce. I was bouncing between the two in dipping but found that I enjoy the spicy one better. Do have something to soothe your tongue if you are spice sensitive. It was good but on the drier side filling wise. From the mini sweet empanadas section of the menu, I tried the Tropical Jam empanada (https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=saJuyv784apZzH--psHZ3Q&start=48&select=BfNrvspmq90iSeHXyIkzKg), mango, pineapple, and guava and had this as an appetizer since my stomach was growling. I enjoyed the fruity flavors which paired well with the not-to-buttery shell. I will get this again. After I made my purchase, a few more customers walked up. This stand is here for the next two Saturdays (ends in July). The owner chef is very nice and appreciative. Support local businesses and stop here. You may find something that you'll like too.
