    Bites is the family gathering place when I visit my daughter in the city. The General Tso chicken was just a bit dry but still good. The jumbo shrimp won tons were awesome! My daughters favorite is the honey bourbon sesame chicken. Staff is excellent and the restaurant is so welcoming and pretty.

    Our waiter James B. was wonderful helpful, patient and fast. The entree’, ravioli, while delicious was not as hot as it should have been and the charge was removed. The guacamole was tops, the soups were delicious and both were enjoyable. The booth was perfect for us and noise level was conversational friendly.
