This restaurant is relatively new and still trying to refine its menu. We've eaten here twice and thoroughly enjoyed the food both times. This time we shared a Peking Duck, which was superbly cooked and presented (the half duck is suitable for 2 or 3 people to share). Evidently, we were there between seasons, so they were in the midst of a transition to a summer menu. As a result, the interim menu was printed on computer paper and no desserts were offered. This will all evidently change as the full summer menu is put in place before the end of June. We have found Aves to be an excellent addition to the dining options on the Upper West Side, and it's worthy of taking over the space formerly occupied by the much beloved La Mirabelle.

A truly subpar meal for the cost of a very nice dinner in New York City. Has the vibe of fast casual dining but the prices of a more elevated restaurant. Disappointing meal for sure. Maybe a spot to get a cocktail at the bar (the cocktail menu was fun) but I’d skip the food.

Aves has become our go-to place on the UWS. Beautiful, with good food and attentive service. I needed to have a quiet conversation recently so we went very early--the restaurant was almost empty--and asked for a table upstairs. Upstairs wasn't open but on appeal we were allowed to go up. Much appreciated. The food was excellent. We had the soup dumplings (messy but delicious) and the spicy chicken with all sorts of nuts. And also an excellent Sancerre. Perfect!

Aves is a beautiful, sleekly elegant Asian fusion restaurant we visited for the first time. The cocktails were delicious and interesting, thanks to bartender Rodrigo, who is talented and friendly. We were seated at a very comfy table, and studied the interesting menu. We each chose an appetizer and a main dish. Each item was served beautifully and tasted delicious! The only problem was that some of the items on the menu were new, so the kitchen was a bit behind, creating delays in the delivery of our food. The servers explained the kitchen back-up and asked for our patience, which we of course gave. To cheer us up, we each got an extra cocktail and a special dessert that wasn't even on the menu! I'm looking forward to another meal there in the near future--giving the restaurant cooking staff a chance to catch up to its delectible menu.

Aves, with its gorgeous interior and elegant Chinese food, is a welcome addition to the UWS. We don't have any other restaurant quite like it. We were there for a quiet Sunday of Memorial Day weekend--the patrons were few (the entire UWS was empty), the ambience was lovely, and the service was attentive. We'll go back often.

Our previous experience at Aves was 5-star. Now something is seriously awry. The food and presentation are still outstanding. But: Even the front-of-house was confused by the multiple menus (original, dumplings, Thai — two too many). The waiters were untrained. The music was too loud. A wine on the menu was unavailable and the waiter didn’t know to offer a taste of the substitute before pouring. We had to ask for serving spoons. The tea poured wasn’t brewed. No desserts were available. Too bad - there are some gifted chefs in the kitchen.

Really excellent food. New place obviously still trying to make name for itself, but definitely worth a try. Higher end chinese food, but really as good as I've had.
