One of the best places in town to grab good food. The Irani chai is really good, no other restaurant has the same tea as desi bites.
We ordered Satti Babu Chicken Pulav and Chicken Mandi, both dishes were so delicious!
Good food and Good Service.

Meat lover! Plzz try this place. We recently visited this restaurant and had a mixed yet enjoyable experience.
We ordered the Goat Haleem, which was rich, comforting, and full of traditional flavors. The texture was smooth and hearty — perfect for anyone who enjoys authentic, slow-cooked dishes.
Next, we tried the Afghani Chicken Tandoori. While the chicken was beautifully cooked and perfectly baked with a lovely smoky finish, we felt it could have been marinated a little longer to absorb the spices more deeply. The cooking technique is definitely impressive though.
For the vegetarian I ordered the Rameswaram Dosa, and it truly stole the show! Extremely delicious, crisp on the outside, soft inside, and served with flavorful chutneys — absolutely satisfying and highly recommended.
Overall, a pleasant dining experience with some standout dishes. Would love to visit again and explore more from their menu!

I have never been so disgusted at any establishment in my entire life. My wife and I ordered food from Desi Bites. They served the food in what looked like I Can’t Believe Its Not Butter tubs. They atleast brought the food to the table but you have to go get your own paper plates and plastic ware. Im talking cheap Dixie plates and forks that you would expect at a neighborhood picnic. I ordered butter chicken. Simple dish, hard to mess up. I ate 4 bites and had to go to the bathroom because the taste was so poor it turned my stomach sour. On the way to the bathroom there is a little alcove that looked like where they stored clutter, not professional but excusable. When I went into the men’s restroom I thought I walked into a 3 day old latrine at burning man. There was garbage all over the floor. There was a cardboard box that was holding backup toilet paper and was used as a trash can at the same time. Mind you I can account for a lot of issues, maybe they were understaffed. Maybe they had a bad night. But what is completely inexcusable in any food establishment is COCKROACHES!!!!!! WHEN I FLIPPED ON THE LIGHT THEY RAN RIGHT OVER MY FOOT. Needless to say we threw everything away and I purged my stomach.
DO NOT EAT HERE!!!!!!! I WILL BE CONTACTING HEALTH AND SANITATION.
I wouldn’t even step foot into this restaurant to get a refund.

Had an amazing South Indian meal at Desi Bites today and it was absolutely delicious! The crispy, golden dosa was perfectly cooked—thin, crunchy on the outside and light inside. It came served on a banana leaf with flavorful sambar, creamy coconut chutney, and a spicy red chutney that added the perfect kick. Everything tasted fresh, authentic, and well-balanced. Simple presentation, big flavors. Definitely coming back for more

I tried the maska bun with tea and it was really good. The bun was soft and buttery, and the tea was perfectly brewed. Such a comforting combo, especially for a relaxed break. Definitely worth trying : )

We recently visited Desi Bites. Their self-service ordering system was convenient, and the food portions were generous. We tried the Chicken Biryani, which had a good quantity but unfortunately lacked the spices. While it wasn’t bad, it didn’t stand out as particularly satisfying. We also tried the Paapdi Chaat, but it didn’t live up to our expectations and wasn’t as flavorful as we had hoped. Overall, the food was decent, but not as delicious as we’d expected. The service and atmosphere were fine, but there’s room for improvement in the flavor department.

Tried ginger chicken fried rice and haryali wings, Ginger chicken came as a separate gravy, decent. Hariyali wings were flavorful but some are burnt, could improve

Came here for dinner and ordered Tawa Goat Sukka, butter naan, tandoori roti, and Chicken Mughali. I tried goat sukka for the first time and absolutely loved it — it was so good and flavorful, definitely a must-try! The Chicken Mughali was served hot and tasted great as well. Overall, a very satisfying dinner experience.
