Here is a plant that you want.....SDC.
This the size, height, girth.
There is really not a plant you want that will meet your criteria.

Most Dwarf plants will exceed 8-+ feet with leaves...Banana ‘Super Dwarf Cavendish’ (Musa acuminata)

How mucn are you really willing to spend to have this plant and grow it out for about 2 lbs of bananas...once.
50-100.
