The BEST Brunch / dinner spot in town - blending of 2 flavors- Danish and Filipino only in Stockton read more

My boyfriend and I are addicted to this place. We go almost every week. The menu has only continued to amaze and change and grow in delicious ways. We love all the amazing staff there, but our bright star and favorite is Emily! Helpful, cheerful, always talking me into delicious drinks (see yummy ube chai photo), we always smile when she's there. My current favorites are the incredible tower of seasonal salad that I get with the halibut, and the smashed potatoes. Sally always amazes us with some new colorful yummy design plating twist that just makes me sigh with the wonderful aesthetics as my mouth waters in anticipation of eating it. This place is a fresh, artistic, flavor melange joy to eat at and there is literally no other place like it. They set the bar very high. I love seeing how busy it is! read more

Great Experience at Nordic Bites! Had such a wonderful dining experience at Nordic Bites in Stockton! The food was delicious, fresh, and beautifully prepared, but what made our visit even better was the excellent service from Mariah and Emily. They were both so friendly, attentive, and welcoming. Great food + amazing service = a place definitely worth coming back to! Highly recommended! Thank you, Mariah and Emily, for taking such great care of us!

Came in to try this place after being hyped up on social media. Nice small place in Stockton. The cons: the young gals co-workers seemed to be out of place. Did not seem to be attentive or know the menu. Got our drink order incorrect twice and gave cardboard Togo box for the hot soup. The rights: presentation and unique Filipino dishes, the portions are huge, the nice older lady (assuming the owner gave free dessert). read more

I like the cultural fusion made possible by a Filipina owner who lived for years in Denmark. I also love the fact that while the food is always fresh (they smoke their own salmon!), great attention is always paid to presentation as well -- it's also "pretty" food! Today I went for the smoked salmon & avocado brioche sandwich and was, as always, superbly taken care of by Emily. read more

Nordic Bites - Salmon avocado sandwich - Hot Dogs Near Me - Stockton, California

My daughter raved about this place. She's a student at the college and said we would like this place. It's Danish and Filipino fusion. Quaint little restaurant that looks like a coffee shop when you walk in but it's much more than that! When we got there before 1pm, the place was packed! And there was no line but it started to build when we placed our order. They have cafe drinks, breakfast pastries, croffles, sandwiches, and breakfast and lunch plates. It's quite a variety of menu items such as Danish hotdogs and Danish meatballs to Filipino pork dishes (longanisa, sisig, bbq skewers). Check the chalkboard for specials. Everything sounds delicious and all beautifully plated. Large servings too! But be warned, once they're out, they're out! Sadly, when we placed and paid for our order, we found out that they were out of anything "pork belly." Luckily, the line was short so we changed our crispy kare kare and sisig dishes to something else. We ordered: Dubai Pistachio Iced Latte - Yummy!!! They have alternative milks. Danish Hot Dog - Tasty and the toppings must be Danish with homemade remoulade and red cabbage. Wagyu Japdog - Fascinating and interesting but delicious! The dog itself as good but the toppings raise the bar! Bonito flakes and whatever sauce they put on it. Must try! Danish Meatballs - savory and full of flavor! It wasn't at all what I was expecting with baby potatoes and tomatoes. It was fab! Pork Skewers BBQ - well done! Excellent marinade on the pork. The garlic rice is very good! Love the fried egg on top. Thanks for the vinegar and pickled veggies on the side. Pork Longanisa - amazing flavor! Again, perfection with the garlic rice, fried egg, vinegar and pickled veggies. Bulalo Ramen with Bone Marrow - broth has so much flavor! It was served with garlic rice but I was hoping that it came with noodles instead since it says "Ramen." Not sure if it was because I didn't specify or if the person at the counter didn't ask. Overall, delicious bowl of comfort and that bone marrow was like butter!! Service was very slow. Ordering was fast but it took a while for the food to come out. There were 4 in our party and each of our dishes came out one at a time. We couldn't wait for each other because then the food would be cold. The owner was apologetic and so sweet. It sounds like in-house customers are competing with to-go customers or customers who preorder and reserve pork belly plates. read more

Finally got to try this place! I was expecting small portions, but if you get the Filipino plates it's a lot of food. I couldn't even finish it. The presentation of the food is so pretty and the interior of the place is also really nice. They tend to run out of things, so be flexible and have back up choices in case what you want is sold out. We didn't get any, but the halo halo I saw a group get looked fire. We will definitely be coming back to try other things and telling all our friends :) read more

Food , service, ambiance was great. I ordered the eggs, bacon, avocado brioche along with the meal of the pork belly brioche. The meal came with garlic potatoes and a drink you can upgrade your drink for an extra fee. I also ordered pork belly kare kare to go. The pork belly brioche was great, nice thick cut and the crunchy skin gave it some nice texture. The evb brioche was light and delicious. Although the bacon flavor wasn't entirely there for me. To drink i got the cucumber lemonade and the strawberry match. The cucumber lemonade reminded me of agua fresco. It was heavy on the cucumber but I didn't mind plus the young lady serving me said so and would fill it up with more lemonade. My only matcha references are Starbucks and the match ice cream they sell in Japan town in San Francisco. This match was pronounced. You could barely taste the strawberry and that was at the start of the drink. Towards the bottom lied the remaining match. Strong matcha. The kare kare was very filling. Great portions. I was expecting a stew but was more of a gravy. tasty no the less. You better like peanut sauce because it was very present. Two thing caught my attention I didn't sit well with me. The no restroom and no air conditioned dining room. It was warm inside not bad as outside but you know first world problems. read more

Nordic Bites - Hot Dogs Near Me - Stockton, California

If you haven't tried Danish-Filipino fusion yet, head to Nordic Bites on Pacific Ave. They've managed to bridge the gap between Scandinavia and Southeast Asia with a menu featuring everything from Smørrebrød to their version of silog-style breakfasts. We tried: * Pork Longanisa: The perfect balance of sweet and savory. * Pork Belly: Great texture with a perfectly rendered fat-to-meat ratio. Both plates come loaded with garlic fried rice and a jammy sunny-side-up egg. What sets them apart is the fresh "Nordic" side: cherry tomatoes, cucumber, pickled red onions, crispy shallots and a unique tzatziki garlic that brings it all together. The portions are generous (definitely shareable for a light brunch). The atmosphere is relaxed, quiet, and clean. Huge shoutout to the staff--they were incredibly welcoming, which always makes a meal taste better. Whether you're dining in, grabbing to-go, or looking for a unique caterer, this spot is a Stockton must-try! read more

I had to do some food research since we were stopping by Stockton on our way to Groveland. Every restaurant I saw bored me until I looked at the menu here. Danish food? ok, never had it but also was never interested in looking for it; but wait, filipino food too? ook, that is a pretty weird & interesting combination. I'm in! The restaurant itself is pretty cute and cozy. There's an extra room in the back that has more comfortable chairs. It was never busy the 2 times that we came and the employees there were so nice & welcoming. The lady in line behind us was so confused about the pricing (but in a good way!). Not saying it was super cheap, but definitely lower than expected for what you're getting and in this economy. As for the food... DELICIOUS! My favorites were the filipino dishes (longanisa and beef bistek) which were served all fancy-like. The crispy shallots in the fried rice was *chef's kiss. My family also really enjoyed the roast beef brioche sandwich and the potato/bacon appetizer. Their specialty drinks are also tasty (recommend the ube chai and dubai chai pistachio). Loved this place so much that we had to come back on our way home from our trip. Definitely recommend! read more

I've been wanting to try Nordic Bites for so long and it did not disappoint. The service was great--friendly and attentive. The dishes I tried were overall simple, but presented beautifully and made with super fresh and quality ingredients. I ordered the smoked salmon open-face sandwich, which was very fresh and tasty. I wasn't a huge fan of the dark brown bread personally, but that's more of a preference than a flaw. I also got the avocado, egg, and bacon croffle. The croffle itself was soft, warm, and perfectly chewy, and they were very generous with the avocado, which I really appreciated. The ube chai was delicious, though a bit on the sweeter side for my taste. Overall, solid spot with great food and service. I'd definitely come back and am excited to try their Filipino dishes next time. read more

Wanted to give it a try after seeing the stuff trending on social media. Everything I tried was amazing. Ordered a variety of filipino breakfast. All came with Garlic Fried Rice with an Over Easy/Medium Fried Egg. Bistek, Longanisa, Tocino, and Pork Belly. Their Bistek, Tocino and Pork Belly were all so good (I didn't try the Longanisa... but my friend said it was delicious. Oooooohhh and the desserts. Got to try the Ube cake balls, Dubai Chocolate cake (my friend tried the Dubai Chocolate Donut and said it was awesome) and took a little bite of the Mango Crème Cake, and ordered the Ube Cake Roll. We will definitely have to go and dine in next time Food did not disappoint read more

Thank you Emily for your wonderful customer service as always. Palabok, roast beef with truffle potatoes and mango lemonade - superb .

This place has a lot going on with the menu. There are a lot of food options to include deserts and drinks. The food was very delicious but its a bit messy trying to eat that open face sandwich. Not a bad thing, just something to note. I really enjoyed their twist on Nordic recipes, it was different and pleasant all at once. read more

I really wanted to try this place and support them. Came in today it was busy. Got a table it was dirty I had to clean it. Wanted to order some food so many things were already out of stock, wish they had a sign telling us what food is not available. They 40 min to close today. Decided to get up and eat somewhere else. Don't know if I'll try again... initially a poor experience already. read more

One of my favorite places to grab a small bite whenever I'm visiting the area. Definitely have a couple favorite items I usually like to order -- some other ones (like the smushi) can be a bit better, flavor wise, but it's a pretty good spot in the area overall. read more

Interesting take on cafe food meets Asian favorites. Smushies are a FUN idea. I tried all 6 and my top 3 are: Salmon Meatball Shrimp The dalgona coffee is a must! read more

The service is excellent, so far, the food is overall pretty good, but could make adjustments like saying corned beef hash instead of corned beef, or make it corned beef, which is what I was expecting. Also, the spam UFO would be better if the spam was fried first. The smashed potatoes and lechon are good and the Filipino breakfast with Longanisa is pretty good as well. My favorite coffee is a decaf iced Nordic cardamom with oat milk and orange zest! A flavor all their own and unique to only this place! I love it! I also enjoyed the Dubai donut. I am definitely going to be back to try more items! It's cute and cozy inside and they are really friendly. Please support them! There is no other place around like this place! read more

Upon walking in I really enjoyed the calm vibe. The music, decor, and water fountain give a comforting atmosphere. I walked up the counter and I told the employee it was my first time there. She was very welcoming and gave me a brief introduction to the restaurant, the owner, and their menu. She was super knowledgeable on the menu and made some recommendations. I ordered the Filipino breakfast, which I was told it a newer addition to their menu. I also ordered an Ube chai. The Chai, delicious! If you're a Ube fan it's a must try. They also have Ube desserts, which I need to try next time. I was impressed with the presentation of my food. The bowl was a perfect combination of flavors. The pork and rice were perfectly salty, the pickled veggies were tangy and crunchy, the egg was perfectly cooked, it all came together so well. They have so many menu options and I can't wait to go back and try more. I wish this business much success! read more

The owner is a lovely, Filipino lady named Sally. The vibe inside is warm and welcoming. This restaurant has many different eats, drinks, and desserts. I ordered the meatball bowl, the ube chai, and mango cream cake. All tasted amazing and would definitely return to try other things. read more

Nordic bites is definitely worth the visit! The owner Sally is very personable. The staff were super helpful with recommendations as well. The dishes pay homage to both Denmark and or the Philippines which is astoundingly as you don't see many fusion places with such a unique mix. The food, desserts, and drinks are excellent. Definitely will be back for more! I also discovered my new favorite drink here. Which was the Ube chai with oat milk! It wasn't overly sweet or heavy. It was a nice light and refreshing drink to enjoy with my meal. read more

Nordic Bites - Ube chai with oat milk. 10000/10! - Hot Dogs Near Me - Stockton, California

Tried this cute cafe-restaurant this week. Food: they serve good portions, can be shared by 2 people if not too hungry. ordered BISTEK-savory and saucy. Had a traditional pinoy bistek flavor but sauce is thicker. LONGGANISA-this was my favorite! Sweet and savory! Traditional pinoy longganisa taste. Filipino breakfast plates are served with delicious fried rice. I would just eat the rice by itself! SMASH POTATO TRUFFLE-mid. Weak truffle flavor. But still taste good. MANGO CAKE-so good! Rich mango flavor. Beat served cold right out of the fridge! Drinks: ordered iced dubai chocolate chocolate pistachio and iced dalgona coffee. I prefer my coffee strong, their coffee was a bit too weak for my preference. Ambiance: chill, relaxed. Few tables indoor and outdoor. Staff: super nice and helpful Price: perfect price point. With their protein servings, i think they could have priced it higher. Will definitely visit again. Still so much on the menu to try! read more

Meh. My wrap was more like a cheap burrito with way more rice than a normal human should have to eat. And my guest's open face salmon sandwich on sourdough looked amazing, but the bread was ridiculously tough to cut and the toppings super excessive. Plenty of salmon though. Garlic potatoes pretty good but nothing you can't make at home. Ube and Mango cake definitely nothing but sugary frosting. I wish the girl at the counter hadn't talked me out of the other desserts only to push those as their most popular. Know your audience (customers), older people like classic foods, younger kids like the fluff. read more

The reviews and pictures made the place look good but I was not impressed one bit. I was well aware it was danish- filipino fusion. Personally I don't taste any Filipino in these dishes. I am Filipino and had many authentic Filipino food all my life. While we were waiting on our food the table right next to us just got their food and did not look happy. This older lady said in tagalog walang lasa which means like no flavor/ taste. So I was alr worried about my food. I got the bistek and my boyfriend got the pork belly. When they both came out it just looked like a pile of salad. Both dishes came with garlic rice. It had no actual garlic bits inside just garlic like flakes. My bistek was dry and the meat tasted sweet kinda like a Korean bbq style. The pork belly was also sweet. read more

This is an amazing little restaurant! It was a totally chance stop during the week when we were just looking for somewhere to have lunch; I'm so glad we decided to try something new because we've been back three times just since the first day we went lol. My husband, daughter and mother have gotten something different each time a; there breakfast UFOs are absolutely fantastic and their sandwiches on the brioche buns are amazing but my absolute favorite are the Christine's... They have a special for three for 15 and I will eat those as an entire meal. The salmon ones are so so good. Not a single complaint from me lol except for the fact that I could eat three more ha ha. The service staff is absolutely amazing and so attentive. They know all about the shop and restaurant itself as well as the owner and chef who created it and are more than happy to share the story, which is really interesting. We did meet her the last time we were there. She makes everything and has a true gift. It's the perfect marriage of flavors and even though it's not a huge menu absolutely everything is so yummy. It's located downtown on the miracle Mile and the way the shop is decorated is absolutely adorable. It's a really welcoming environment, very comfortable and cute at the same time. I give these guys tremendous kudos for trying something different and sticking with it because they bring not only unique flavors but a unique environment and a lot of love to a diverse population. We will be back on a regular basis! Thank you so much again! read more

All the hype is REAL. Nordic Bites is absolutely out of this world. The food is incredible--top-quality, thoughtfully prepared, and bursting with flavor. And the prices? So fair it honestly feels rare these days. You will not find better food at such reasonable prices. Sally, the cook, is one of the most beautiful souls you'll ever meet. Her talent truly shines through every dish, and you can feel the passion, experience, and education behind her cooking. It's not just a meal, it's an experience, from the warmth of the service to the excellence of the food. We are officially regulars and will be back again and again.
