Not the cheapest food around but the items I have gotten so far were very good and cannot complain about flavor and value. So far have tried the nash sandwich (very flavorful and filling), chicken cobb salad (very filling), avocado fries (interesting and healthy alternative to regular fries), chimichurri steak farmer's bowl (very flavorful), house chips ($3 for fresh potato chips), and green smoothie (tasty). I appreciate their online ordering system and contactless pick up system. It gets busy during breakfast and lunch since it's across hackensack hospital so best to place a pick up order instead read more

This little gem is amazing! It is different from any food establishment in the area, and always packed during lunch hour. Everything I've had from the breakfast food to lunch did not disappoint so far. It is a bit over priced, but the ambiance makes up for it. There is plenty of seating available and is Instagram worthy. I would suggest to go during off peak hours so as not to get overwhelmed. Ok so let's get down to the food. My first visit with a friend included an order of chicken quesadillas and burger with sweet potato fries, delish! Another day for breakfast and we had an egg and cheese with turkey sausage on brioche bun, and avocado toast. My friend also had the green juice but she did not like it as it tasted like straight celery. We also opted for the Nutella bowl with coconut and strawberries. It tasted great, but my friend pointed out that it's supposed to be more liquidy and not frozen as ours was. Overall, it's a must visit. read more

I went there & was rushed off n offered to go containers when asked to reheat food or matcha latte as a disabled military veteran student with dislocated leg treated horrible & felt unwanted, very unprofessional! Toilet was clogged also n 6 customers complained they did nothing could care less smh ‍, very unprofessional & if your going there as a cafe or to study instead of treating it as a restaurant then the employees will hate you there! Spend under $12 per transaction on items and tip 18% they will hate you!!! Sad to say but very true n blatant more restaurant vibe by employees then cafe read more

The restaurant is deceptive, they charge an automatic 20% gratuity to your bill, and when you question it they say it's a service fee. Then they ask for an additional tip!!!! Better off going to a diner! read more

Once upon a Sunday afternoon, October 10th to be exact at 3:10 pm I stopped by this cute restaurant called Bite. After making my selection of Goodness Greens ($10) and added grill salmon ($6), I took my number and politely sat down to wait for someone to deliver my food to my table. Let me tell you about the salad. Greens, lots of greens, baby spinach, roasted corn, avocado, tortilla strips, red onion, cherry tomatoes and goodness dressing. The first bite tells you to go for the second, third, fourth, tenth, twenty something until it is all gone. By the second bite, I ask for an extra dressing, yummy. Customer service was friendly and efficient. I will be back.

This restaurant never responds to any inquiries, often removes and substitutes ingredients from orders without informing the customer or at least asking about any allergies, and is completely unapologetic about it when confronted. I expect better from any restaurant, but especially one that advertises itself as serving people who are gluten conscious and vegan, and with its high prices. read more

Bite Food & Coffee - I ordered the Harvest bowl a few days ago, and found whatever that is as I was about 2/3 of the way through eating it. That is disgusting. - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Hackensack, New Jersey

Such a cute cafe! They have a QR code to order/pay which was nice and easy to navigate. Food was nothing fancy but good food at a good price. Would definitely recommend for a casual brunch/lunch meet up and try something else on their menu! read more

It's an amazing spot to try out new stuff. A lot of vegan options. A bit pricey but justifies with equal amount of food. Not for everyone but worth a shot. Lavender Latte is worth trying. Lavender seeds strangely taste like cumin - not a complaint but just not my taste. read more

A friend of mine kept raving about this places truffle fries & I was NOT disappointed. Well worth the trip! I ended up ordering them twice. Second time I asked for extra truffle oil & Parmesan. They also come with a sriracha aioli dipping sauce. Sooooo gooood!! Cant wait until the next time I have an excuse to come this way. Plus there are other things on their menu I wanna try. By the way, the truffle fries are called 'Truffle Shuffle.' read more

Cute vibe! I only had coffee and it was good. I did see several people walk in and out without ordering because they only take orders by scanning the menu. Not ideal for people that are on the move, takes too long. Losing customers by not taking orders in person. They should change that read more

Had a longer than expected hospital stay - this place is a godsend. Great food and service is amazing! Lifesaver

Disappointed with my most recent order. I never had any problems up until now. Had the el toro breakfast burrito and surprised to find the portions to be significantly smaller. Same with the side of fries which I ordered with cajun and barely had any on it. For a $13 burrito & $6 fries, I'd expect not only the quality to be there but an appropriate portion size. read more

I saw an ad for this place on Facebook, and a lot of the comments spoke about the quality and how good it was. What also drew me in was the picture of the breakfast sandwich (good marketing!) I ordered: 1. The Nash sandwich: "crispy seasoned chicken thigh, over medium egg, arugula, chili honey, ciabatta" - absolutely delicious. 2. El Toro burrito: "pulled brisket, soft scrambled eggs, charred onion, chimichurri, crispy shallot, home fries, chipotle bbq, pressed tortilla" - WOW. It really does look like the picture on the menu. It's super flavorful, and balances out well with the potatoes. 3. Avocado fries - I think I would prefer this in a sandwich or wrap, but it paired nicely with the burrito. 4. Onion rings - I LOVE me some real onion rings. I tasted onion in every bite. I'll be back. read more

Got delivery for lunch today and was pretty underwhelmed by the food. The delivery was 15 min late and the food was lukewarm by the time we received it. We ordered a Burrata burger, Bite burger, Fish tacos, and Avocado fries. The Bite burger was probably the best thing we ordered. I wanted it cooked medium and it came medium. So that's good. The fish tacos were below average. The tortilla wasn't soft and the fish was flavorless. The Burrata burger and avocado fries were ok, but not great by any means. Prices are on the high side IMO. Unlikely we'll order from here again read more

Very good find. It is right next to the Starbucks on Essex St in Hackensack. Try the BEC sandwich. It's Bacon (turkey bacon) Egg (over medium) and cheese. I opted to order avocado to add it to the bagel egg sandwich and it's awesome. I asked them to squeeze and orange/pineapple drink and it was good, and about $8. It isn't on the menu, but they were able to do it and ordered agave too! Everyone was very pleasant and we'll definitely to keep ordering and supporting during this pandemic! Update- Ordered dinner here tonight and we tried the OG pizza, quesadilla & onion rings. All very good as well! The onion rings are very good. Whatever they're battered with is very good. The pizza was a pleasant surprise too. So far two great meals and plenty more things on the menu we're looking to try! read more

Yaaas. So good. Real coffee right next to a Starbucks. Real stones. Also tunes. The breakfast sandwich I had was as good as anything I have ever had. Daddy like. The coffee was not quite as good as a Starbucks. But still perfectly fine. I'd still rather come here. read more

The ambiance is very chill. My boyfriend and I ordered the Mac & Cheese Buffalo Chicken Skillet ($13) Braised Brisket Tacos ($13) and Chimichurri Steak Farmers Bowl ($15). The tacos came with chipotle bbq, pickled onion, cilantro, and cotija. These were flavorful and good; however, they were made with corn tortillas, and I prefer flour. We ordered or bowl with curried cauliflower, maple butternut squash, and sea salt flaked half avocado. This was my least favorite dish. It is on the healthier side, and it just wasn't doing it for me. I also thought we got little steak for the amount paid. Moving on to the Mac & Cheese Buffalo Chicken Skillet. ALL THE YES! If you do pop in here and like mac & cheese, I highly recommend it. Significant portion and filling! read more

My husband and I had a bite to eat here at Bite food and coffee after a doctors visit in the same building. Actually, it was very open and cheery inside. They do observe Covid restrictions with tables being separated and food being picked up by the patron instead of having it delivered to the table. Although the food is pricey, it was fresh and delicious. It was also hearty. The nine dollar pizza was basically a half of a large pizza delivered in a very long rectangular box. I had the fish tacos which came in a container. The shell was soft and cold, but the food inside was very tasty. I noticed lots of outlets around to charge your phone. You must bring an actual plug to do that. This was the perfect place to enjoy a quick bite to eat. Also the Coffee was delicious. There was a small parking lot in front which you are able to use. read more

Came for breakfast. Delicious and fresh food and friendly service. Had the everything bagel with chive cream cheese, the Avo with fried avocado inside, and the scrambled out, which is a burrito stuffed with eggs, kale and mushroom. Everything was good. I thought the scrambled out burrito was a bit too bland and needed more salt and flavor but it was very good nonetheless. Their coffee and hot chocolate were pretty good as well. Cozy and comfortable ambiance. Definitely recommend read more

Well here's my two cents.. don't come here for the service. You won't get any - like at all. The place is QR code only, so you miss out on the interaction with employees. You walk in and they just look at you. Can't get any recommendations or anything. On top of that, no one here even says hello or goodbye. Literally zero guest engagement or customer service. We've been here twice - once for the food and once for the coffee. To me the coffee was average. Nothing really stood out. The good thing about the food is the vegan options. Hard to come by in the area. But way too expensive. Overall wouldn't recommend. read more

We came here for brunch on a weekend and there was no wait for a table. Everything is ordered through an app so there is barely any service, they don't even bring you water. The coffee was good and they have a large variety of sweeteners and milks. My bf got an omelette which was pretty standard tasting. I got the brekkie platter and the presentation was abysmal, just random things slapped onto a plate, the pancake didnt have any syrup or fruit or whipped cream on it, the turkey sausage was dry and overly salty. I would come back for coffee but probably not for food, it's mediocre and overpriced. read more

This place has good food for decent prices. I appreciate the indoor decor. However, the quality of the coffee and ordering system can use significant work. I don't think the onus should be on the customer to figure out how to order online, especially for older people who may not be well-acquainted with the digital world. It took myself (a 20-something who studies CS at Cornell) and my middle-aged mother 15 minutes to finally figure out how to use the online site to order. If we had another ordering option, we certainly would have taken it. The employees seem cold and not very well-managed or taken care of. When I ordered a coffee, it was neither hot nor flavorful. It tasted like a tablespoon of actual coffee with the rest being lukewarm water. When I asked the barista about it, I was told that the coffee pot is not insulated or kept warm, which is why it often comes out cool. This is a trivial excuse for a place that is considered a coffee shop. She offered to heat it up for me, but a fresh cup altogether would have been preferable. My meal was good: I ordered the salmon harvest bowl. But the experience was marred by the depressed aura of the workers and lack of care about the product they serve consumers. I've worked as a barista in a very similar cafe/eatery before and know that this is what poor management and lack of care does. I think a better system of training employees in what a quality product is and an overall emphasis on care for the food and drinks would be super helpful for this business to continue thriving. That is the reason that I am leaving two stars. read more

I was SO excited to try this cafe since I was visiting someone at the hospital next door for 2 days and they have vegan options. My fiancé ordered the vegan quesadilla which was very good. I got the chickpea mash which was supposed to have beet hummus but instead had regular hummus, but was still good. My matcha latte came cold after our meal was finished but they replaced it with a hot one. We got the vegan pizza for dinner which was very good and the vegan/gf cookie is so yummy. However, the next day for breakfast I order the avocado toast and took one bite and realized the avocado has completely gone bad and tasted rancid. The radish on top of the toast also had a weird texture and the side salad had gelatinized chunks of dressing on top. It seemed as if it had been made a day (or two) before. I hope this is just a one off. The space is very nice but could use some more staff and better QC. read more

Overall *** If you are at Hackensack Medical Center there aren't a lot of food options in the area so if you come here make sure to bring $$$. My weighted grading system comes in at 3.42 Stars so just missing out on the 4 Star level. I found the food good but the price level is way too high to justify a return trip for me anytime soon. Setting **** Inside it is clean and modern with exposed ductwork, a long tufted banquet along one wall and Edison bulb lighting. You walk in and order fast food style, they hand you a table stand with a number and bring your order out to you. I personally don't like the counter design. Instead of having the overhead menu behind the cashier it's off to the left which forces you to turn unnaturally away while ordering. The overly large coffee area also juts out into the dining area because of what I perceive as this counter area design flaw. Bite is located in a strip mall with a barely adequate and frustrating parking lot, if you are coming I would suggest carpooling but it is easily walkable from the hospital. Service *** Not a lot of interaction but pleasant enough. You need to get everything yourself as far as napkins and utensils, etc. I did not find it clear on what to do with my plate when finished, there was a garbage but nowhere to put my plate. Maybe I was supposed to leave it on the table but I just put it on the coffee counter. Food **** I tried the Chicken Torta mainly for the pickled jalapeños although the cashier thought the warmed avocado didn't really work and I sort of agree. The sandwich tasted very good overall but the bread was twice the size of the chicken breast. I added the house made chips which were warm, crunchy and abundant. Value ** $12 for the sandwich plus $2 for the chips, add in a drink and that's a $17 lunch, ouch!!! That is a lot of money for the smallish sandwich and not a lot of "service" but on the upside at least I didn't have to add a tip. read more

I usually never right a restaurant review without actually eating there. I had food delivered from Bite. Pictures of the interior look pretty cool & urban. it's in a strip mall that is easy to get to from many directions, although parking is a little light with all the other businesses there. So my review is based on the menu and the food. Bite serves breakfast and a lunch\dinner menu. The only item I did not like was the fish tacos. I prefer grilled fish, but fried is OK too. I like the fact Bite really lets you customize your sandwiches, especially with a large variety of breads. The fish tacos can be on the normal taco shell or on lettuce leaves. One of the tacos was very fishy, but the fried coating on all of them was just too thick & tough. The whole thing was thrown together and if I were them, I'd just drop the item off the menu. (When will restaurants realize when you are trying to sell a somewhat healthy item like this you need to use fresh, light oil. The onion rings had a better batter. ( the fries were very good too) We tried 3 sandwiches. MAC AND CHEESE BURGER-----TRULY ONE OF THE BEST BURGERS EVER! steakhouse blend burger, fried mac & cheese bun, cheese, sriracha aioli....I felt so guilty eating this decadent creation! But every mouthful was so juicy and with the crunch of the fried mac & cheese "bun"??! Are they crazy!? Amazing creation. a little messy to eat as the bun starts to break apart, but who cares!? It's just too awesome. A++ but not an every day\week burger. I couldn't have this more than every month or so, but hey, that's me. Bite has soo many great choices: burgers, pizza, sandwiches! TURKEY APPLE BRIE roasted turkey, sliced apple, brie, honey mustard, arugula, on multigrain was light, but so flavorful and fresh. A winner! BITE BURGER steakhouse blend burger, smoked gouda, sautéed onions, crispy shallot, pickles, special sauce was EXCELLENT. It was kind of like a Patty Melt, cooked perfect with great ingredients. I can't wait to try more items off their menu! read more

Very cute cafe & I love the vibes in here. Music was great, loved the aesthetic in here too. Came in on a Sunday afternoon for an impromptu brunch. The reason I'm giving 4 stars is because it's only QR code ordering but the toast tab website isn't really user friendly in my opinion. Ordered a caramel iced latte which is perfectly sweet how I like it and my boyfriend got a strawberry açaí green tea lemonade that was refreshing. He got el toro burrito which he loved and I got the SoCal burrito which is super filling and spicy. Super good. We were the only ones in the cafe at the time so the service was a bit slow but being a Sunday I know a lot of online orders come in so we understood. I love this gem in Hackensack read more

This went from one of my favorite spots to my least favorite spot. I unfortunately will no longer be coming here.

Chickpea mash (toast) was so delicious and aesthetic... made with beet hummus (thus chickpeas), sliced avocado, paprika and some micro greens.

Been coming here more frequently for the past month now. Food is delicious! The Bite Omelette and Farmer's Bowl with charred chicken are my faves. The sweet potato has too much of a cinnamon taste to it, though. I've also ordered the Show Me the Green juice, which I really enjoyed because I love ginger. The only thing that I didn't like that I've tried so far was the Avo Power shake. I customized it to just the avocado and almond milk - you can't taste the avocado at all. I wish they made the breakfast menu an all day menu because that Bite Omelette is bombbb! It would also be awesome if they had oat milk, but almond milk is great, too. Restaurant is very clean, cute interior, friendly staff, and free WiFi (that actually works well). Definitely recommend! read more

The staff was very nice- 5 stars for that. My mocha was also pretty good. However my Chicken Parmesan lacked flavor; it was missing something- seasoning. It did have good mozzarella but it just needed more Parmesan flavor and some tang. I wouldn't order that again though I'd definitely come here again and try something new to eat. The brioche with egg and cheese looked good. read more

The restaurant is impersonal. I don't understand why anyone wants to go to a restaurant without service. You have to order via a QR code. The "server" not a waitress shouts from across the room: "Do you want water?". She never said, Good morning " and asked if I needed help. I ordered three eggs over medium, toast, salad and home fries. The meal was served on a small plate with the eggs on top of each other and on the home fries. There was one over medium, the other two were well done. I guess the cook over cooked the first two and hid them underneath. There was no one to talk to, to tell her my eggs were not like I ordered because she was busy socializing with the other workers. Whenever I was able to get her attention to ask if the coffee had sugar or if my bread had sesame oil (allergy) she responded by asking if I wrote the information in my online order. When I go to a restaurant I want service. A smiling waiter not a "server"placing food on the table like a robot. I can call grub hub or Uber Eat to deliver my food and at least get a greeting. The meal without the tip was $20. No wonder the place was empty at 10:00 am on a Sunday. People get out of bed on Sunday for service. This is a place where you visit once and never return unless the Starbucks next door is closed. The people there were first timers. I did not see any usual patrons walk in as you would normally see in a good restaurant. The concept for this restaurant is not well thought out. I wish I had gone with my first instinct to get a Starbucks latte and sandwich for $10. Definitely a disappointment! read more
