About this restaurant

  • Innovative
  • Romantic
  • Neighborhood gem
BITE'S menu is never made of tiny hors d'oeuvres and cheap ingredients... but real dinner food! Imagine, instead of half a duck it's a quarter duck, instead of three lamb chops, it's one really juicy nice one! It's a full lobster tail in your spring roll! You probably expect to pay $40 bucks or more for your lamb chops, so doesn't $18 for our lamb chop delight you in more ways than one?!! Oh, want some more? Well then, have more!!! Want less? You got it! Bite specializes in a great compact menu that is beautifully complimented with weekly specials. Just relax and have fun. South Town is so cool!

    My boyfriend and I are amazed how this restaurant is on OpenTable. The reasons why we feel this way are several. For instance, the restaurant is so small that when the chef is cooking, it smells up the whole place. Also, we prefer a 4 top, side-by-side which I requested on the reservation. However, the waiter stated the tables were reserved for a party of four. Guess, he does not know how to count because, during our time there, we witnessed a couple sit at each of these two tables. Another amazement was that I ordered an item off the menu and when it arrived at the table, the sauce and sides were completely different than what was described. The waiter stated that the cooks sometimes present the menu item differently. So, don't get our hopes up for what we thought we ordered? Last time we will be eating there. However, the evening was not a total loss as we had dessert at a nearby worthy OpenTable restaurant.

    The service was very slow and weird. We had a reservation and had to wait 15 minutes for a table. There were several empty ones and lots with plates all over. They kept telling us they would clean a table for us, but it took forever. The food was really slow, the restaurant was extremely warm, and the fan/light combo made it look like it was strobing on the menu. Overall, very underwhelmed

    One of our favorite restaurants. A few issues with the menu soured this visit. The sides for the dish my wife ordered were totally wrong. The wait staff, when we pointed it out, stated that it had happened a couple of times earlier. Not sure how a quality restaurant justifies not serving the sides advertised with the entree. Will still give it another chance.

    Food was great - many interesting choices - service was attentive - No one rushed us - we enjoyed our wine - appetizers and then ordered dinner. Love a place like that - my only thing is - the ambiance could be spiffed up a little - loved the fact that it was a small restaurant - great for conversation...Would definitely go back!!
