This spot is one of my favorite restaurants in the Lakeview neighborhood and only a 10 minute walk from Wrigleyfield.The apps, sushi rolls, and larger meals are all really good. The larger dishes are perfect for sharing or having for leftovers the next day. If you are vegan or vegetarian, they have several options available. Their red sangria is amazing! I haven't tried their non-alcoholic options like the bubble tea, but their non-alcoholic options all sound promising.

Honestly one of the best places to dine in the neighborhood. You really can't go wrong with anything on their menu. The cocktails are elite, too. My favorite menu items are the coconut shrimp, crying tiger, and crab rangoon. Great service and vibe.

Great food! A very well done western fusion of Asian food. Tasty, easy to accept for all kinds of taste buds. Also very accommodating to dietary restrictions and allergies. A huge menu that I would go back to try hahaService was great! Great prices as well! Ambience is more bar like, dimly lit.

The ambiance in Bites is so fun - Very tropical and they have cute drinks and purple flowers served with the food and drinks. The General TSO's fried chicken sandwich was really good. We tried the Rama Noodles that have a peanut sauce - very unique dish, a little sweet but nice to try. Would definitely go back to try the sushi special on Cubs Home game days!

The service was great , and they were attentive! This menu was extensive, flavorful , and the food came out hot. I'm not from Chicago but this will be on my visiting list! The pictures don't serve it justice. It's a intimate dark space with an back yard courtyard. My favorite were the mussels. These have to be the best I had ever! This is near the Wrigley field , they do walk ins but a reservation will be best ! And if you're lucky enough to catch a game for sure pregame here! I had a margarita inside a flamingo; need I say more !

LOVE. If I had to describe our experience in 1 word, it's love! We came by for an early dinner on Sunday and were immediately sat. The parking is paid metered parking, but there was plenty of it despite being in a busier area. The restaurant was decked out with colors, lights, palm trees and was truly an escape from Chicago. To start we had the Crying Tiger, and the Spicy Crab Rangoon. The Crying Tiger was full of flavor, and cooked to the perfect temp. The steak was delish with and without the dipping sauce, but to amplify the flavors... highly recommend dipping! The spicy crab Rangoon was a fun party of its own. The crunch from the wrap to the warm creamy crab filling, the spice wasn't too crazy with all the cream filling but with the sweet chili sauce it made for the perfect bites. We shared the lava roll, it reminded me of the viva Las Vegas roll from ra sushi, but this was filled with so much more. The crab meat on top had a nice kick to it. As if we weren't already full, we also ordered the general tso chicken sandwich, and the burger to try. Both of which were delish! The general tso was my pick between the two. The pineapple had a nice sweet and tangy flavor to each bite. For dessert, I wanted to try the Vietnamese tiramisu but they were sold out. All the more reason to come back again soon! The service was great, despite how busy they got the team really made each table feel special in their own way and were extremely attentive.

We previewed the menu for @biteschicago This Asian restaurant is a true hidden gem even after ten years. Everything about this restaurant was amazing. Great service, pretty room, gorgeous plating and delicious food. Plus, I appreciate any restaurant that goes the extra mile to print a separate menu calling out all the vegetarian and vegan options. Plus, they craft stunning cocktails, refreshing mocktails, and even CBD-infused non-alcoholic delights.Appetizers included a tuna roll covered in gold leaf and caviar that @lisaalavallee said looked as good as it tasted. I had an avocado bao bun that was such a heavenly blend of flavors and textures. Entrees were chow mein and a truffle mushroom fried rice. Both so good.Desserts were a standout, probably the prettiest rice pudding I have ever seen with black rice and coconut milk along with a delectable chocolate mousse.

Talk about heaven in a bowl.It was my bday week and a friend wanted to take me out. I had seen this video on Instagram of someone enjoying a bowl of ramen with a colossal beef rib and was intrigued enough to see it for myself. The interior had a fabulous island Filipino vibe with greens and oranges. The staff was diverse and accommodating. I spilled my water in the first minutes of my experience, and the staff was so quick and helpful to respond. My friend and I got drinks. I initially ordered Old Fashioned, and I can't remember what she first did, but it was purple, and I ended up liking hers more, so we traded. For appetizers, we got delicious dumplings and the roasted duck bun, which was also super tasty, and I highly recommend it.Regarding the main course, I came here for one mission, the beef Rib Ramen. Words can't fully express or comprehend how delicious this bowl of excellence was. So many flavors of spice balance in the broth accompanying fresh noodles, and laid enormously over the bowl is a four-hour roasted bone-in rib. Upon picking the rib up, the meat fell into the broth as if to say I was ready. It was simply delicious and, by far, one of the best meals I've ever had. The broth and noodles were also excellent and complemented the meal perfectly. My friend and I both enjoyed it as she also enjoyed her meal. Overall, this was the most accessible five stars I've ever given. Please enjoy Bite. They deserve your business.5 out of 5
