-
Be sure to save room for dessert. Ton: Friendly advice
Use this line during or before a meal to tell someone not to eat too much, because dessert is coming. Here, room means space in your stomach. Don't use it after the meal is over.
“Be sure to save room for dessert.”
-
Just one bite. Ton: Playful and hopeful
Use this line to ask for a small taste of someone else's food, usually with a friend or partner. It sounds playful, so it's better not to use it with a new coworker or someone you don't know well.
“Come on. Just one bite.”
-
Let's share it then. Ton: Warm and fair
Use this line to offer half of one dessert, often after someone says they want a taste or can't decide. The word then means you're answering what the other person just said, so it doesn't work well as a first sentence.
“Well, let's share it then.”
-
Can I have a bite? Ton: Polite and direct
This is a simple, neutral way to ask for a taste. It works with friends and family. With people you know less well, "Could I try a little?" sounds softer.
-
Want a bite? Ton: Friendly and generous
Use this short question to offer someone a taste of your dessert. It's casual, so it fits friends and family better than a formal dinner.
-
Could we see the dessert menu? Ton: Polite, restaurant-ready
Use this line with a server when you finish your main course and want to look at desserts. It's polite enough for any restaurant.

The fixed phrase is save room. Room here means space in your stomach. Place doesn't work in this expression.
-
À corriger
Just one bit.Formulation conseillée Just one bite.
A bite is the amount of food you take into your mouth at one time. Bit means a small piece of something, and "just one bit" sounds wrong when you ask for a taste.

À corriger
Let's divide it then.Formulation conseillée Let's share it then.
Divide sounds formal or mathematical for food. With a dessert, people usually say share or split.
