Chicken tacos
Darren O.

So a few things to say here. Got here around 12:30 on a Thursday, expected them to be at least slightly busy. No one inside at all except two older ladies who had just arrived. There was one worker there seating them and us. It seemed like there was another person there who disappeared almost immediately. The person working told us he was actually a cook, who had been left there by himself- and he wasn't sure about waiting on tables, but would his best. We ordered quickly, and he went back and started cooking. We had the Korean boneless chicken wings, chicken tacos, and my wife had a burger. The wings were fantastic. Literally perfect. I could eat a couple of orders. Perfect balance of heat and sweet. My chicken tacos were also perfect. Loved them. The Chipotle sauce was a great complement to them. The kimchi fries stole the show. I'd go back just to get then and the wings. My wife liked her burger too. I didn't try it, although it looked good. So- the weird thing is nobody else was working. 3 or 4 more tables arrived as we were finishing, same guy doing everything. Props to him for being a hard worker and a great cook. Management obviously needs some help.

Tots that they melted cheese over for no reason

DISCLAIMER: LOCAL FOOD EXPERT In the perfect spot in downtown Forest Grove, perfect distance from everything and really great atmosphere. Wow. I was impressed with the outside and inside in it's appearance. Looking at the menu, I noticed the steep prices. 15+ for average burgers. Oh, and it doesn't come with a side. The side is 4 extra dollars. "Ok," I'm thinking.... "the food must be great then, very gourmet," was I wrong.... I decided on the chicken sandwich for 12 dollars and decided to add the tots for an extra 4 dollars. I told the waiter to add cheese, an extra 75 cents. My food came and they put the cheese on my tots instead of my sandwich. A slice of cheddar melted over the top of the tots. I tried my cheese-less sandwich and it was indistinguishable from a Mcchicken. A good fried chicken sandwich is crispy. This was soft. and soggy. If you look at the picture, you can see the patty and you can probably recognize it as a pre-made frozen chicken patty. I will give them some credit as they didn't charge me for the sandwich, though being retroactive in service in not sustainable. Baffles me how the place was busy.

Alfredo Sen Yai

The food was creative and original. The service was high quality and the music was fun and engaging. Highly recommend trying this restaurant!!! I will drive across town again to eat at this restaurant.

All American Burger
Akira h.

Best burger I've ever had in my life! It was the only time I've actually eaten the pickles in a burger!

Sous-vide pork huh?

What happened? Ordered delivery through Uber, used to get the ramen all the time during previous ownership. Today, it came with bland broth and cold, Chinese BBQ pork instead of the braised chasiu described on the menu. Don't support restaurants that blatantly misrepresent their food.

Jalapeno Burger
Amy P.

Delicious food. Highly recommend bites Resturant if you are in the area! We loved the Parmesan tots! Super delicious. Boyfriend got the jalapeño burger which he loved along with the Parmesan tots. I got myself the sweet potato fries, side salad and the boneless Korean wings. Super satisfied. Did not know what to order but everything we ordered was amazing and delicious. Stop by if you're ever in the forest grove area! Great place to stop by after fishing at Hagg lake!

Parmesan green beans
Jacquie L.

Cute place. Food was great. We had the tempura green beans with Parmesan cheese, udon soup, and southwestern salad, enjoyed it all. Service was lovely.

This is their udon lol. Just generic udon noodles, bamboo shoots, bean sprouts and stock udon broth. Look how sad it looks
Jane C.

Their menu is more interesting than the actual food when it arrives. Everything I've tried from here has been disappointing-either too greasy/oily, really bland and underwhelming, or overcooked. Their little appetizers are probably the most decent. You can just tell from the poor presentation of the food that the cook just doesn't care. You can tell by the photos I uploaded. Look how sad their presentation looks. Don't even waste money on any of their soups, pasta or salad. Good concept, Poor execution.

Vegetarian dumplings
Rebecca B.

This is a great Asian fusion restaurant. There are a lot of dishes with kimchi on the side, there seems to be a heavy Korean influence on the menu. We were seated as soon as we came in, and the drinks came out fast. The food seemed to take a while, but we were there at prime dinner time. A note about the kimchi, it was spicy but it also had a really food flavor to it which some kimchi lacks. We ordered the dumplings as an appetizer and they were gone within minutes, they're so good. I ordered the Kai Dow with chicken. The chicken tasted like it had been marinated for a while, and it was really tasty. My husband had a dish with kimchi and noodles. He can't remember the name and it's not on the menu online- maybe it's something new? Anyway, this is a great spot for some awesome Asian inspired food. Definitely worth checking it out. I think a group could come in and order a bunch of appetizers and eat a great dinner that way.

Bites

I came looking for Burgers & Buns, which apparently has been replaced by Bites. The kimchi burger was excellent, as were the pork gyoza marinara. They have a decent beer selection. The space is open and well-lit and clean. Service was swift. I would come here again.

I've tried less of the food than the mocktails, but the Mac and cheese served fajita style on a hot plate was quite good.

This I'd say, is a fantastic little hang out! Here's the 411 on The 649:…read more * Parking Situation * Although the location of The 649 is just "where the F" (eye-roller). Because it's somewhat hidden in the corner of a Safeway shopping plaza. Look for the Baskin Robbins or Wells Fargo ATM and your find it. Like other reviews, when busy, parking can be a bit horrendous. But in hindsight, I'm not gonna reduce a star just because of location. * Bar Food Menu & Dining * Their menu starts with shareable bites, like a pretzel, tacos, quesadilla, loaded nachos, and even a charcuterie plate. Slightly larger dishes would be their Cubano and Brisket Press sandwiches. They even have a few choices for soup and salads, and a couple of dessert items listed. Don't forget to check the chalkboard next to the bar for specialty dishes and drinks. As for dining-in, they've got sturdy wooden tables that can accommodate 4-8 people. Bar stools by the windows, and a fairly large outside patio area. And with the times I've been here, I've never seen a dirty table. Very well maintained (two thumbs up). A few TV monitors showing the game, but its not like a noisy sportsbar. * Drinks & Services* You've got your choice of craft beers that rotate like a standard tap room. They also have tasty seasonal cocktails, but their normal everyday cocktails are just as good. And if you're gonna have a charcuterie board, then you've got to offer a wine list option right? Well they got that too! One last thing to mention, they've got some top-shelf bourbon and whiskey. The 649 is a bar that offers it all! Service has also been welcoming and top-notch. I recall only been served by Rich, Steven, and Crystal, but they always seem to craft up some lovely cocktails. Or deliver some clean tasting everyday type of bar food as well. * Last Call * Normally in my reviews, I'd list every item that I've tried, with price included. But The 649 is such a unique type of bar experience that I feel you should try for yourself; To me, their offerings are reasonably priced. Dining in is nothing fancy, but service is excellent. It's a great hangout for a business date, of even after a first date. I've got nothing but love for local support!

Service was attentive and friendly, though there were moments where things slowed down a bit during busy times. Still, the staff was accommodating and made sure we were taken care of.

When you order three dishes and not one stands out as a good one, it's definitely a letdown…read more Sautéed Brussels Sprouts - didn't seem sautéed at all, they tasted more deep-fried. They were crispy but overly oily, and the creamy mayo-based sauce didn't pair well with them. This Appetizer took too long to come out. For the Ahi Poke Tuna - Glad I asked for the sauces on the side. Even with three sauce options, none really worked with the dish. One dark sauce tasted almost like molasses, overly sweet and not something you expect with poke. The chili sauce was also too sweet, while the soy-based sauce tasted excessively salty (fish sauce maybe added in it). I added malt vinegar myself just to balance the flavor. Also, it would be nice if the fish was seasoned with salt(or something) to alter the fishy flavor. The Fish & Chips was average at best. The batter was uneven, with some parts way too thick, though the fries were okay. Experience was not horrible, server was nice and ambiance inside is pretty. I just think the kitchen needs real work.
