I loved being able to finally check out this Thai spot in our neighborhood! My husband and I ordered takeout on a Monday night and were impressed with the food and the quick service! Our order was ready for pick up less than 10 minutes after we submitted it on the Bite a Bit website. I decided to go with the Red Thai Curry - which is served with Jasmine rice, your choice of protein, and your spice preference. I selected "medium," which ended up not being very spicy for my taste - I probably would opt for "hot" the next time we dine here. The curry was flavorful - full of warm spices while not being overwhelmed by coconut. My husband ordered the Shrimp Pad Thai, which he really enjoyed! The shrimp were a nice size, and the noodles were nice and saucy. I will say that we found the prices a bit expensive - but their portions are very filling, and you can easily turn this into multiple meals. We're looking forward to dining in next time - and sampling some of their sushi offerings!

TLDR: Awesome modern/fusion take on Thai food!!!! Not a single thing was bad, several dishes blew us away, and the atmosphere/servers are super friendly and sweet. This East Nashville Thai Restaurant is a gem of unique, upscale takes on Thai classics. Sure you can order your average dishes like Pad see ew or Pad Kra Pao, but to be honest, you should be going to a more casual, hole in the wall restaurant if you want the best of the best of those authentic meals (I recommend smiling elephant or degthai). If you're looking for a culinary adventure, and are exciting about trying new things, then this is where you go. Here's what we (a group of 3 foodies with an ability to eat a LOT and a desire to try everything) ordered: -Pork Jerky with Sticky Rice: 7.5/10 - The pork jerky itself was reminiscent of a thick cut pork belly, and the sticky rice served with it was perfectly cooked. It came with a zingy dipping sauce that brought most of the flavor to the dish, which is the reason I don't rate it any higher, but the meat was still really good. -Thai Salmon Salad: 8/10 - You could get this at any Thai restaurant, but it was fresh, the salmon was PERFECTLY crispy and just tasted amazing, and they were heavy handed with the seafood portion. Loved! -O-Toro Tataki with Mango Salsa: 10/10 - The O-Toro was so wonderfully fresh, with the salmon roe and lime bringing a citrusy flavor that complimented the fishyness so well. It was a divine bite, especially with the sweetness of the mango salsa! A MUST try! -BAB Dry Rub Wings: 10/10 - When I tell you we did NOT expect these to be this good... I mean it. But they came to our table covered in a (once again) citrusy yet spicy dry rub that had our taste buds on a roller coaster of flavors. Our initial worry was that the wings would be too dry, but upon first bite, the juicy chicken just melted in the mouth, absorbing all the flavors of the dry rub, and we were beyond content. Order this!! -Khaow Soi with Soft Shell Crab: 10/10 - Probably my FAVORITE dish of the night. The coconut curry soup itself was SO flavorful and creamy, and it was jam packed full of these delicious, perfectly cooked noodles. It came with chicken as well as soft shell crab, both of which I have zero complaints about and paired divinely with the curry soup. The soft shell crab was fried yet soft on the inside, and an added textural element came from the crispy noodles on top of the dish. SOOO good. -What the Duck: 9/10 - I love duck. And this did not disappoint. Stock full of pieces of tender duck, mushrooms, pineapple, veggies, and a savory brown sauce, it also came with 2 duck wings. The flavor of the sauce was so perfect for the meat, and the sweetness of the pineapple was a genius addition. Also comes with rice! -A5 Wagyu Strip Loin Carpaccio: 10/10 - This was d i v i n e. The thin slices of meat absolutely melted in my mouth with an unbelievable richness. Each wagyu carpaccio slice has a jalapeño slice and a bit of caviar, adding a zing that harmonizes with the butteriness of the meat and the truffle oil. The arugula salad in the middle didn't seem a necessary addition, but it didn't take away from the dish, and I found this dish to be my second favorite of the night. -Chef Choice Sashimi Silver: 8/10 - Your classic Chef Choice Sashimi. The fish was thick, fresh, and delicious, exactly what you want if you're looking for something simple. A little bored, but it did come with a ponzu sauce that we forgot about(considering we had 10 dishes on our table) so keep that in mind! -OBX Roll: 9.5/10 - This roll has everything you want, and it is SO good. I wanted to keep eating it even though I was so full. With several types of fish, crispy tempura flakes in the interior, and topped with spicy mayo, the flavors were rich yet fresh and had me wanting to come back for more. An A+ roll. -Thai Tea: 10/10 - I mean, it's Thai Tea. Come on. The Tea was sweet, cinnamony, and tasted so warm despite being, obviously, cold. A MUST have drink if you can handle sweet beverages. If you enjoy drinks like

Honestly this place is good but not like super crazy good. It's kind of my backup Thai spot if others are closed or I don't want to drive far. I've ordered the pad Thai, pineapple rice, miso soup, one of the curries I can't remember. All were very good besides desperately needing salt and one time I got the pineapple rice and the pineapple was completely flavorless and really through the dish off, picked them all out and it was fine. Thai tea is delicious here. All and all, this place is definitely good but just not authentic really. Not bad at all and will come back.

Wonderful spot in East! The dragon balls were my favorite such a fun take on sushi! The tuna nigiri was very fresh, great cuts of fish! Pad See Ew was super good, we went with the beef but it would be amazing with any other meet option! Miso soup and Thai iced tea were both very tasty and flavorful! Will definitely be back!

Did a Google Assistant dinner reservation for 10 for my bf’s bday. Super easy! Everyone was super accommodating at Bite a Bit. The host gave us options on where to sit and set up our tables quickly at arrival. The back outdoor area was perfect for the spring weather and a little more quiet (?although we probably were a bit loud). Our server made sure my bf was given special bday attention which was great! Refreshing cocktail choices and delicious food. The gyoza was fresh and crispy and the satay chicken was well-marinated w/yummy peanut sauce. Their spicy crab and cucumber roll was perfect. My bf enjoyed the generous portion of chicken basil stir fry. We’ve been here a few times since they opened and they never disappoint. Great experience!
The food is amazing! We had the calamari, jackkie fried wings, a torpedo roll, and the Pad Thai. Everything was delicious, far beyond expectations. We will be back!

Man this place was BUSY for dinner ! Sushi was fresh but the rolls are definitely a fusion style. They do have traditional rolls but I would highly recommend getting out of your comfort zone and trying a mix.

Ordered fried rice with scallops heat level 2. Scallops were tough (overcooked). Had fried rice with shrimp the week before heat level 1. The shrimp were overcooked also and the difference between heat levels 1 & 2 was so considerable couldn't eat but a couple bites of rice. AND it took forever!

We enjoyed the Monster Roll and the Chicken Lo Mein! They were both so fresh and delicious. All of the staff was so friendly even though we went on a saturday night and they were absolutely slammed. The cocktails were perfect as well. I recommend the Thai Coffee Martini but that’s just me :) the only dislike i had was that the music was overly loud for my taste. It was hard for me and my partner to have a conversation because of how loud it was. I would do pickup just to have the food again!Parking: there’s some parking right off the main road but it’s free!

Great place with a good atmosphere and good music. Food was amazing, had the Khaow Soi curry and it did not dissapoint. Medium spice was pleasant and not spicy at all so will kick it up a notch next time. Ordered the thai donuts for dessert and omg they were so good.
