    Bites is the family gathering place when I visit my daughter in the city. The General Tso chicken was just a bit dry but still good. The jumbo shrimp won tons were awesome! My daughters favorite is the honey bourbon sesame chicken. Staff is excellent and the restaurant is so welcoming and pretty.

    Food is perfect. Service perfect. Ambiance/decor is outstanding. For an upscale neighborhood sushi place, this is one of the best places in the country. BTW: The vibe is far more “mellow” at the Lincoln Park Halsted Street sushi-San than at the sushi-San in River North on Grand Ave. One is not better than the other, they are just different. I go to both places for a total of four or five times a month.
