    Vegetable Split Pea Soup and Mediterranean Tuna Salad combo!
    Chris D.

    I ate in here for the first time and had the same great experience I've had as with take out. Staff are fab as always and the quality is good.

    Turkey sandwich and Country Tomato Soup

    Solid sandwiches and great tasting food. Everything is affordable. Glad I came here! Service is nice and friendly too

    Made a last minute decision to come here after our nearby choice had too long a wait and ultimately I don't totally know how it has such positive reviews. We got two sandwiches: exotic tuna and apple/turkey/Brie. The former I much preferred as I do like a good cranberry curry concoction, but it was a bit too sweet, not solid enough, and could have used more tuna. The latter I really thought I would like except they had forgotten the Brie....which we didn't realize until after a few bites. So it was very much just a dry and bland sandwich. The saving grace was the bread, which was good. The falafel was cheap but we could've skipped it. Menu is extensive, at least. Not sure if that means everything is just meh or if they have some specialties.

    We really enjoyed our meal here. It's affordable, friendly service, and it filled the spot. We got the salami Panini , and the exotic tuna sandwich, as well as the Hummus and chicken. I really enjoyed the Tuna, and my friend loved the Hummus. Will come back sometime

    Bite is a sandwich shop I had not yet tried until now. Their fried chicken cutlet hit the spot with a nice crunch on decently fresh bread. My sandwich was in a tasty sauce that was not overwhelming. Service was quick and the prices reasonable (for NYC). This store had a more upscale ambiance for a sandwich shop and probably caters to nearby office workers. Either way it's a good place if you want a quick breakfast sandwich.

    Chicken Schnitzel (rice not from restaurant)
    Cee E.

    I didn't know what to expect when I ordered from Bite. I found it on Grubhub and decided to try the chicken schnitzel after reading some positive reviews. The menu is mostly Mediterranean fare with some Italian sandwiches as well. They have several vegan options as well. Including vegan schnitzel (not sure what protein they use). They have both a schnitzel sandwich and schnitzel plate. I went with the plate which comes with two large pieces of chicken (seriously generous portion- I was impressed), a side salad and zaatar fries or rice. I thought it was a great value. The chicken was a great portion and wasn't too greasy, which is essential for me.. Needed a little bit of salt but otherwise tasty! I wouldn't order desserts from here though. I ordered a homemade chocolate chip cookie. It was large but didn't taste as fresh for some reason.

    Mediterranean Salad
    Jenny L.

    The falafel is a bit pricey with inflation, but it's still good :) Whether you get the Mediterranean salad or fresh banana bread, you'll likely enjoy your quick bite whether to dine in or to go. Service is friendly, fast, and helpful. There are a few seats with tables and counters if you want to meet up with folks or hangout to get some work time. Parking is likely tough in the street, but public transit options are nearby to avoid the headache of searching for a spot.

    Prosciutto and Mozzarella Panini with Pesto
    Mosa H.

    YUM! Don't walk past this wonderful sandwich spot- their paninis are to die for. The prosciutto and mozzarella is amazing and fresh, with sweet tangy sun dried tomatoes. I opted to add pesto, which gave it a bit more flavor but perhaps made it a big greasy. The vibes are small local cafe, with a surprising amount of tables. I'll definitely be back- although a small panini (pictured) will run you $11.

    Panini and Soup Combo
    Da-Eun L.

    I can't believe I haven't reviewed Bite yet! I've been coming to Bite for years for an affordable, reliable meal. It can be busy or have slow service during peak times but it's definitely worth the wait! The paninis can be a bit heavy/dry at times but they definitely don't skimp out on the ingredients. I recommend the panini options; I usually go for the roast beef or the chicken. I recently tried the Prosciutto and Mozzarella Panini and that was super good too! The tomato soup was hearty but could use a bit more flavor. Can't wait to go back next time I'm in Chelsea :)

    I have this thing with floors
    Chris T.

    This place deserves 5 stars alone just for serving a filling lunch in Manhattan for under $10. Add the fact this is some of the tastiest Mediterranean sandwiches I've had and I would give it 6 stars if I could. I opted for the Sabih, in a pita ($9.5) (Hummus, sautéed eggplant, hard-boiled egg, Middle Eastern chopped salad, and pickles. Optional: spicy.) and it was AMAZING! It was so filling I could only eat half, to top it off one of the staff gave us some complimentary brownie bites. The service is stellar, quick, friendly and efficient, exactly what I want during a work lunch. They have 3 locations in Manhattan (I think) definitely give it a try :)

    This is the main dining room..

    I can't say enough about this place. The sandwiches are so tasty and the atmosphere is just easy..The owner greets me and always has time to give a kind word. I love the Middle Eastern Vegan and the soups and the veggie burger and the falafel!!!! I have never had a bad meal here!!! Please go now!!!!

    sabih sandwich
    Brooke K.

    I don't understand how it takes 30 min to make a sandwich. I came in here to get a quick sandwich, and I was starving, so with that combo I was pretty annoyed. I ordered the sabih sandwich. the presentation was pretty, but the eggplant was really oily and it was over salted. I didn't mention it to the staff because I didn't have the time to wait for a replacement. I think they may be understaffed?

    chicken schnitzel sandwich and green curry soup
    Brian S.

    First time trying chicken schnitzel and it was exactly what I needed. Great decor and limited seating for a smaller shop but I could watch myself eat in the mirror. Lunchtime may be busy but they have a whiteboard menu so large I couldn't figure out what I wanted even after waiting 10 minutes in line. Luckily they have combo options(!) - at a reasonable price too. Great sandwich bread and fresh ingredients while the soup was hearty and filling. They seem to have great vegetarian options too and I wouldn't mind coming back to try something new. They make things their own way and I'm all for it.

    From the bar top. Watching the Olympics.

From start to finish everything missed the mark: The hummus was bland and tasted like someone forgot the spices. The doma (dolmas) were disappointing and didn't have the rich flavor they should. Even the baklava, which should be a sweet highlight, was dry, lackluster, and honestly not enjoyable. The Turkish coffee was so bitter it was almost undrinkable -- if you like bitter coffee, maybe it's your thing, but it wasn't what I expected. They market themselves as Turkish and Middle Eastern cuisine, but what I ate didn't come close to what I'd consider good food in that category. My stomach was still growling afterward -- and not in a "I want more" way, but in a "why did I eat this?" way. The staff and service were fine and the atmosphere is pretty, but at the end of the day it's just not worth it when the food itself is so underwhelming. I definitely wouldn't recommend it to anyone looking for authentic or tasty Turkish/Middle Eastern food.

The chicken Adana sandwich was also quite nice. The chicken was fresh and well seasoned in a good portion with some lettuce, onions, tomatoes as well. The bread was great. It's served with two wonderful, flavorful sauces: hot sauce and yogurt sauce (I much prefer the latter). Portion is incredible for the price. Then, I was initially interested in trying the fig pudding for dessert but they were out of it, so I went with the rice pudding. Again, a huge portion that is well worth the price. So creamy, so good. And, they brought out 2 Turkish teas for free to make up for not having the fig! The people are just very nice here, and the tea was also lovely, piping hot and just perfect. It's a pretty small restaurant but doesn't get crowded early on. They were playing some Turkish music while I ate, and I really enjoyed it.

My friend had the Lamb Shank, and it was equally phenomenal: slow-cooked to perfection, falling off the bone, and bursting with rich, authentic Persian flavors. The saffron rice was fluffy and fragrant, the bread was fresh and warm, and even the appetizers and salads showed real care and attention to detail. We literally cleaned our plates -- not a grain of rice left behind! What truly elevated the experience, though, was the service. Musa, the manager, is in a league of his own. Despite the restaurant being absolutely packed on the night we visited, he handled everything with grace, professionalism, and a genuine smile. He made sure we were seated quickly, checked in on us throughout the meal, and made every single guest feel like a VIP. Musa and his team are a powerhouse -- incredibly strong, well-coordinated, attentive, and passionate about what they do.

To drink, I ordered the Tehrani Mule; a take on the moscow with a house made ginger lime juice. 8/10; a tad watery. We decided to go family style with ordering and chose the mediterranean salad, kotlet, and falafel to start. The falafel was perfectly crisp with a slightly smoky outer crust that added really great texture and flavor. A bit dry tho -- Needed the hummus and Mezze Platter to dress it up a little. Salad was refreshing, crispy and a great palette cleanser across the table. The combo platter + mixed rice was fabulous. Chicken was tender and came right off the bone (something I'm new to but it was good!). It came with a side of tzatziki and persian zhoug (?) - a minty and herby chutney that just added another layer to the aromatics of the dish. Although the rice was great, it was a really large portion even for the group of 5. It would've been nice to have the option to split to a half portion of vegetables or different grain to balance quantity. Overall 8.9/10 - Definitely worth a visit with a group for business dinner or catching up on a friend's night out. The service is great, everyone is super attentive and you can really feel that the food with made with love. So glad I tried this place and I'll be back to give their dolmeh and dessert a taste!
