Tasty flavorful food
Strictly a To-go place. Indo-Chinese is good. Biryanis are generic/okayish. Portions are large. But don’t even consider eating in the restaurant. The tables are filthy. There are tissues everywhere on the floor. Not sure how they are allowed to operator that way.
Good food for takeout, but not ideal for dining in with family. The atmosphere can feel a bit chaotic and not the cleanest, so it may not be the best choice if you’re looking for a relaxed sit-down meal.
Their onion samosa is really good but on the spicier side.

Desi Bites Cincinnati serves delicious South Indian dishes, including the popular South Indian Thalappakatti style mutton Briyani. Their catering services are highly recommended, although improvement is needed in customer support and response time. The restaurant offers the best-priced take-out food in the area, with generous portion sizes, and is conveniently located inside an Indian grocery store. Customers praise their special pulao's and special biryanis on weekends, describing the flavors as rich, aromatic, and perfectly balanced—making it a must-visit for biryani lovers in Cincinnati. The DB chicken is considered a must-try, though some items like Mysore bajji can be soggy and less satisfying. The mango lassi can be hit or miss, with occasional stale ones. The dosa and coffee are highly appreciated, but other dinner entrees tend to be more average. The place is very crowded and better suited for take-out rather than sit-down dining, as it is more of a pickup spot.
