This is one of my favorite restaurants. The food is exceptional. Each dish has an interesting little twist that sets it apart from traditional Asian cuisine. Not overwhelming, just an unexpected and delicious flavor or spice. The people there are fantastic. The ambiance is quaint but social and upbeat. Everybody I bring to this restaurant wants to come back.

This was our first time dining at Bites. We arrived at 6:35 for a 6:45 reservation, and they said our table wasn't ready (huh? there were several empty tables), and asked us to go to the bar. We went to the bar and within about 2 minutes ordered drinks. And a minute later, before the bartender could even mix the drink, the host came back and said our table was ready. The room was a bit noisy, filled with young and boisterous drinkers/diners...but the room ambiance was pleasant....

This was our 2nd visit and will be back. We made a reservation because it was Friday night an also after a Cubs game. The restaurant was not yet full, but there is a great happy hour from 4-6p, so we enjoyed sangria and apps, and also dinner and dessert. The Tempura Brownie and Matcha Ice Cream was a treat! The menu variety and food presentation are vast and beautiful. Every item is always delicious to look at and to eat.
