gourmet-meal

Explanation:
Most of the 食い切り料理 restaurants, I saw in the site, were first-class restaurants. So, I thought something exquisite would be appropriate. That's why I choose "gourmet". See my sites example:

Thanks, everyone. I have a better idea of what the word means now. In my context I think "gourmet" fits fairly well.

1 hr confidence:

One-bite food

Explanation:
Small amount of food that can be eaten in on bite. Little portion.

#
Baby burgers, teeny panini, little lobster rolls -- one-bite food is a trend, says Robin Uler, senior vice president for food and beverage for the 2,700 Marriott International properties. Expect to see the smaller bites on lounge menus, at catered affairs, as appetizers. The "small plates" craze will also continue. "We've finally learned how to share," Uler says.

The Spanish word tapas doesn’t often show up on a Japanese restaurant menu, but One Bite isn’t like any other restaurant. This tiny restaurant isn’t a teppen-yaki steakhouse or a sushi joint. Its owner, Yokahama-born Erika Koike, has created her own version of an izakaya, which she likens to a Japanese tavern where patrons gather for drinks and a little bite of something. She quickly discovered that her customers preferred lots of bigger bites, too, so the menu ranges from starters to combo dinners that include salad and rice.

Also, it depends on where the restaurant was. If he worked abroad, it could be very well be the restaurants I mentioned above. In Japan, restaurants like 喰切り　江ぐち serve kaiseki, http://74.125.153.132/search?q=cache:UvlKk16F9F8J:homepage2....

　懐石料理は季節感が楽しめるが、コースの流れの縛りが強く、個々の料理となると印象の薄いきらいがある。三月に開店したばかりの「江ぐち」はそうした懐石のあり方に、一石を投じている。懐石をベースとしながらも、一皿一皿に強いアクセントを置く「喰切り」を看板とするのである。なにしろどのコースも、柱は四季を通じお椀代わりに織り込まれるすっぽん（丸なべ）。てんで破格なのだ。
Then it could be a traditional Japanese restaurant that mainly serves kaiseki full course ( course of several one-bite plates)

懐石料理における八寸に似ているが、八寸がその場で食べて（これを食い切りという）
http://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/本膳料理

江戸時代にさかのぼると、関西の料理屋は「食い切り」で、その場で食べればおしまいでしたが、関東・江戸の料理屋は持ち帰り用の折り詰めがつくのが通常でした。
