Took a quick little stroll during lunch downtown lol I was in the area. Was walking downtown looking for a place to grab a quick bite to eat and stroll by Banis restaurant and was able to grab some of their Spanish rice loaded up with some chicken sauce and couplebarbecue barbecue ribs. The ribs were a little dry, but very flavorful and the rice was on point! I definitely stop again for a quick cheap meal.

Wow. Went here today and tried 2 different plates and some sides and everything was perfectly cooked and outstandingly delicious. I’m still thinking about the flavors, portions and reasonable price. Definitely coming back.

Was in Lowell for business purposes on a Sunday and was famished! I looked up restaurants in the area and Bani Restaurant came across my page, We stopped in around 5pm kinda late not many choices but the little they had there hit the spot! Nice clean location, the owner and her husband just took over this business from another family member and they are absolutely the kindest, nicest people you wish to always come across! Downfall no public restroom understandable but the let us use the employees restroom out back, clean and fully stocked! I highly recommend visiting this business if you’re in the area, Always support the local businesses!

If you’re looking for great Hispanic food that tastes as if “abuela” cooked it, then this is the place. They also have passion fruit drinks and great desserts. The food is in front to pick, and the owners are nice. A taste of PR in Lowell, MA. Tell them Tony sent you, Franks friend.

Rice was dry and grainy. they would show the price and added a 50% tip didn’t show me the price took more than i paid for. they charged me a absurd price for some rice that has been sitting for 5 hours.
I’m not even gonna talk about the plantains the water is murky and white i feel like I’m a gordon ramsay 1 start restaurant show.
food safety inspectors need to look into this place
on top of that i felt sick after consuming the pork it was undercooked oily and dry the rice feels like I’m biting down on hard beads there is no flavor just salt.
Wouldn’t recommend even if you were starving you should go to teados instead and get chicken it taste way better than that store. addons were 95 cents each and still i got charged 10 dollars wouldn’t recommend bani restaurant

This plate had all the classics — los tres golpes came out sizzling, the onions had that perfect vinegar punch, and the fried cheese? Golden therapy. Salami was crispy just how abuela likes it, and the eggs pulled it all together like a morning anthem. That “Better Half” cola? Facts — it held me down. Bani Restaurant serves Dominican breakfast the way it’s supposed to be: humble, heavy, and healing

Bani is a little gem downtown for quick eats.
Large portions, very affordable. It is flavorful, and easy to eat. I recommend it for a quick bite.

I went with a friend, love that food and natural juice
My friend always looks for chicharron, I was happy with any meat, I think I ordered the Chuleta. They also had Chinola 🙂
Parking is tricky in this area
Prices are fair, typical 10-20 range
Service was fast, people were nice (good customer service)
Its a small store, but room enough to eat, although it was semi pack
Overall worth going, especially near the area during lunch break
