Bite is a great little neighborhood restaurant conveniently located on 14th street and third ave. It's run by friendly and dedicated people. The food is great and cheap! I love the sangria!
Danielle DavisOctober 9, 2014I LOVE this place. The friendly accommodating quick attentive servers. The delicious flavorful food with fresh interesting ingredients. The live music that pops up. Best Mediterranean in the EV!
HeenaAugust 19, 2014Great sandwich/salad/soup place. Middle eastern vegan w/o oily eggplant spicy, middle eastern mushroom, feta salad! Mix of black bean and tomato soup! Great prices. Slow service. My "go to" lunch spot
Kimmie OhhJune 30, 2020Order their shakshuka/shakshooka (poached eggs in Tunisian tomato sauce with feta & pita) & their mallawach (Yemeni puff pastry pancake with a hardboiled egg, chopped salad & spicy tomato sauce).
Karina EstrellaMarch 10, 2020Great place for paninis, and they have really good substitutes for their vegan options (vegan chicken parm, etc)! Expect a bit of a wait though, even when there’s not a lot of people in there.
First time here and I ordered the prosciutto panini with fresh mozzarella. I love eggplant so they added sautéed eggplant in my panini and the owner gave me a sample of eggplant purée too! Lovin' it!
Stefanie ReisJune 15, 2016I think I have my favourite salad place in town! I am in love! Service is super friendly, price is fair and food is tasty and fresh. Go for the Mediterranean salad!
Juliana AmorimSeptember 27, 2014Cheap&good salads, sandwiches and soups in East Village. Same price as the delis nearby and much better! Go for the Mediterranean salad. Ask for the small version of it with a sandwich of your choice
Tara LorimerAugust 24, 2016Mediterranean salad is delicious - the combo of hummus and eggplant with cashews works really well. Really filling, especially with the pita bread.
The tuna panini is really good (a bit spicy and a bit heavy). Also a big fan of the Sabich -- they replace the traditional pita with Balthazar roll, which I think is a big improvement.
PhabiFebruary 3, 2013The small Split Pea soup was delish, lots of veggies and homemade; the turkey pesto panini on multigrain was awesome very healthy and filling; oh also a plus it was $12 for both & a drink tax included
The Corcoran GroupApril 1, 2011Make a special trip to enjoy one of their delicious sandwiches. Start with the Middle Eastern Egg Sandwich, then have a Tomato Soup and a Prosciutto & Mozzzarella Panini.
AdnaMay 22, 2015Had a combo, spicy tuna panini and spicy black bean soup for $8! Came on a Thursday night and there was a live jazz band playing. Staff was very friendly and helpful.
Jessica de OliveiraAugust 19, 2016Great live jazz music on Thursdays and $5 sangria! The perfect place for a quick bite and to relax.
Listen to "sound bite" - local bands Friday and Saturday night. Also get turkey pesto.
The Mediterranean Vegan sandwich is a must have. I go out of my way to get it!
Love the feta salad and salami panini! Been eating here for a quick dinner atleast once a week for 2 years, one of my fav spots in the east village!
Black forest ham panini combo with chili for a buck more is my favorite. I've been living off this place for more than 2 years now, keep up the good work!
The recent live music they play in the evenings has been divine. Great way to wind down the night with a sangria.
Awesome little sandwich shop off Union Sq. They have incredible hummus and their mediterranean salad is great too.
Anthony ArminioApril 26, 2014The roast beef is bomb I added a bunch of stuff and it's cheaaaap - my NEW go to spot
Elvis RodricksApril 26, 2016Yup this is the good wholesome stuff. Had the mediterranean salad with chicken. The hummus was to the point n so was there pita.
E HJune 12, 2016The middle eastern vegan sandwich I had was delicious! The banana Nutella ciabatta is also a hit.
This place IS incredible.. Fresh food reasonably priced and so good! Sometimes the wifi doesn't work, just kindly ask the person behind the counter to reboot the modem and you'll be good to go!
Angela WenJanuary 20, 2014Mediterranean salad with chicken is huge, delicious, and comes with a fluffy pita. Great value for a healthy meal!
Grab a half sandwich/soup/salad combo (pick two) for $8; ie: exotic tuna and Mediterranean salad.
Rob HAugust 21, 2012Egg sandwich is amazing with tomatoes and a special sauce. Comes w coffee for $3.50 before 11 on weekdays. A true bargain.- Jordan MSeptember 20, 2011The mediterranean egg sandwich is fabulous. Somewhat healthier alternative to your typical sausage/egg/cheese breakfast sandwich!
- Michael KimJuly 7, 2015The paninis are the best! Black forest ham panini pairs perfectly with some jalapeño chips.
Jack GashiApril 15, 2014Really good food and your girl will most likely approve. Movie night friendly.
Saarim ZamanJune 22, 2015the middle eastern turkey sandwich with extra hot sauce is a must for those feeling a little adventurous
Melissa ChaiDecember 30, 2015Half turkey pesto panini and Mediterranean salad is the best quick lunch I've had
Elie BleierJuly 31, 2014Mediterranean Salad with Tuna is an outstanding take on an Israeli Salad. Thoroughly impressed.
The Mediterranean Salad is the best in the hood. Make sure you get it with the pita bread
Get the mallawach or anything of the middle eastern sandwiches. Pass on the cappuccino.- See the photography gallery by Rachel Marks through February and March of 2014.
Tes ClackenMarch 30, 20127 years later & I still crave the Turkey Pesto with a glass of Pinot Grigio. Get it and thank me later.
Mike SmithAugust 12, 2010The Salami sandwich with the balsamic vinaigrette is pretty much sandwich porn. My fave sandwich place in the city & second favorite in the country.
PeggyNovember 20, 2012The prosciutto and mozzarella Panini & the spicy black bean soup are delicious!
Exotic Tuna sandwich. Tuna with curry. Better than you'd think!
