Overall Sour Bites is a vibrant, visually striking dessert spot that draws praise for creative, fresh treats and a photogenic pink interior. Fans highlight pistachio crepes, Dubai chocolate items, and strawberry Tanghulu as standout offerings. The staff are frequently described as friendly and attentive, which enhances the experience. Several reviewers note high prices and small portions relative to cost, and some find the desserts overly sweet. There are reports of inconsistent quality, stock shortages, or service lapses, tempering the overall impression. The atmosphere is described as trendy and Instagrammable, sometimes loud or gimmicky, but still appealing to many dessert lovers. In sum, Sour Bites remains popular and worth trying for those who crave bold, sugar driven sweets, while others may want to manage expectations about value and restraint.
These good reviews must be fake, ordered on Uber eats, insanely expensive for tiny tiny portions. The ones that look like fruits just taste like nasty white chocolate & the frozen grapes are ok but I've had better at other places for cheaper & bigger portions

Horrible, Tastes bland, only sugar no actual taste, Strawberries not ripe, chocolate is a tasteless soup, candies are excatly the ones you buy from the grocery store but 5x more expensive. DO NOT go there.
I saw it all over the internet & wanted to try it. I'd say it's good, but definitely overhyped. I ordered it through Uber, & the strawberries weren't very fresh. I have to admit, the chocolate was pretty good, but honestly, the portions were small for the price not really worth the money
The dubai chocolate bars are good but definitely not worth 30$ a bar. Paying that felt like highway robbery. Update: they changed the chocolate to this weird pink chocolate so now it's inedible. Highly recommend not buying it.

The male staff member was dismissive & rude from the start, & the entire place felt like an Instagram set rather than a real dessert shop. I paid $28 for a cold, pre-made'chocolate bar,' & I've had Dubai-style chocolates in Toronto & abroad that never tasted this low-quality or painfully sugary.
This dessert shop has some stunning decor, great use of the space. Dangerously late hours. I've had two experiences here & I felt a combination of finessed & delighted both times. The first time I tried the viral Dubai Chocolate Bar at the height of it's glory - the $26 total had me feeling a regret as thick as the pistachio filling. Amazing dessert though, they executed the concept very well with the high quality filling & decent amount of it. The second time I went for one of the verrines, props to the guy working for memorizing every single flavour by heart because there were so many! This dessert was also expensive for the little portion at $16, but a very high quality dessert which I enjoyed more than the Dubai Chocolate bar. The other offerings, like ice cream & crepes, seem a bit typical so they did not interest me as much as the specialty items. If my stock trading for Q4 goes well I might treat myself to another luxury verrine.
I ordered the Dubai chocolate strawberries & they were so delicious!! However, this place is quite expensive. These strawberries were around $18 for a medium size cup, & a Dubai chocolate bar is $30 plus tax. It's a cute place though!
I've been there a few times, always good service & delicious chocolate 🤤
Every staff member I've met has been super helpful & kind so far. They're generous with the chocolate❣? I'm addicted to the strawberry cup with pistachio & chocolate. But today I'm having oreo crepes 🤤

I feel like it's either a hit or a miss.. A somewhat expensive place because of the Dubai chocolate they mention a ton of times while you order or because of all the hype about the place?! Personally for me, it's a miss.. 13$ for a bland cheesecake in a small container & overall 40$ including tips were spend on two items.
We went for an ice cream this this not an ice-cream place. However I had one of the best cheese cake of my life. Try the pistachio chocolate cheesecake☺?
It is a very beautiful place with the neon lights & everything. The atmosphere is incredibly cool. I did not find the dessert variety as appealing as it could have been, but I can recommend the strawberry covered in chocolate. They were good, but too sweet. I guess if you like super sweet desserts, this is your place! Service was good. 💞
