Compared to Burma Superstar, Bites is not as consistently good I'm afraid. One of my favorite is the fiery tofu, but I just received a burnt one. The sauce didn't have its usual sweetness either 😔 which I'm fond of, instead it was burnt and overly salty. There must have been a change in the kitchen staff, or a mixed up? Sending y'all good vibes! I hope all is well because we love Burma's recipes but this was an unfortunate mishap. But it's not...

It’s only a takeout place. Since Burma superstar was delicious. We ordered items from here thinking of the same quality. We had Samosa, which was too oily but tasted good. Then we ordered spicy tofu which was terrible and then we ordered some chicken sandwich. It was disgusting. I still give a three star because probably we ordered the wrong items here. I’m going to try it one more time different items and see where it goes.

Not a fan of the new menu. Too sandwich and bread heavy. I used to order a lot because it was gluten friendly but can’t have any wraps / sandwiches. Also they used to have the most stellar wings with a sticky sweet sauce. Please at least bring the wings back. ?
