Aves Thai & Asian Fusion restaurant

The restaurant really impressed me with its bold and diverse drink selection, each option stood out with strong, memorable flavors. The drunken noodle was absolutely incredible, packed with bold flavor and perfectly cooked. On top of that, the friendly and attentive service truly elevated the entire experience, making it a place I’d happily return to.

I’m genuinely happy to have a restaurant like Aves on the Upper West Side. It’s rare to find a place that delivers a true fine-dining feel with fine-dining-level food at normal, approachable restaurant prices. Bridging comfort food and refinement is hard, especially within Thai cuisine, and Aves pulls it off beautifully. ✨ We went on a Friday night around 8:15 pm and were surprised to find the restaurant mostly empty, which honestly felt more like a visibility issue than a quality one. There’s both an upstairs and downstairs dining room. A few tables were occupied upstairs, we were the only table downstairs, and there were a couple of people at the bar. The cocktails looked exceptional. 🍸🥃🥂 The menu offers great variety, including strong options for vegetarians and non-seafood eaters. Ou

Aves NYC completely blew me away. From the moment we sat down, everything was flawless, fresh, vibrant, beautifully presented, and unbelievably delicious. We started with their Mango Sticky Rice drink, and WOW… it was soooo good. Creamy, refreshing, and honestly one of the best drinks I’ve had in the city. For appetizers, we tried the Mango Avocado Salad, Sweet Coconut Tiger Prawn, and the Tom Yum Crabmeat Croquettes, each one unique, perfectly seasoned, and bursting with fresh flavor. Our entrees were next-level. The Persimmon BBQ Glazed Beef Short Rib was tender and rich, the Pineapple Lychee Curry Duck had the perfect balance of sweet heat, the Crying Tiger with Garlic Rice was insanely flavorful, and the showstopper, the Aves Signature Golden Cage Duck, was both stunning to look at

I had such a great experience! The food is delicious with a perfectly balanced spice and the service is truly amazing. The environment is great, the staff were incredibly friendly and were very attentive. Portions were generous, prices reasonable and all of the dishes we had are absolutely delicious!! Very worth revisiting.

Great spot with a cozy vibe. 🥰The pork chop was perfectly cooked and super tender, 🐟the cod was fresh, and the braised beef 🥩was fall-apart soft. Rodrigo (manager) was attentive — we’ll definitely be back!🥳
