I could sum up my experience in one word: Salty…read more Las Aves came highly recommended by some locals, so I placed a takeout order through their website last night for Americano ground beef tacos, no tomatoes, and added sides of chips, queso, crema, and 4 oz. rice. My order total was roughly $20 after taxes, tip, and a random $1 online ordering fee. Since I added so many sides, I decided to check on my order when I picked it up. The sides were correct, except I erroneously ordered queso fresco instead of queso blanco (womp), but the tacos were covered in tomatoes. They corrected it and made me fresh tacos in just a few minutes, which I appreciated. My first bite into the tacos tasted like pure salt. Unfortunately, they didn't get any better. They were also pretty greasy, and my stomach wasn't a huge fan by any means. I ordered them with hard shell tacos, which was an upcharge, and they tasted way overcooked. All told, I just didn't enjoy the dish. The chips were extra salty too. I heard the rice was good though. I'm probably being generous with a 3-star rating, but I'm hoping it was just a bad night for them. It does seem like this spot is hit or miss based on other reviews here. I wouldn't be opposed to trying them once more on a future trip to Jersey, maybe next time I'll do a sit-down dinner, as their dining space looked quite nice and they even had outdoor seating too.

I have to say, I'm a little disappointed because the first time I came here I really enjoyed it,…read morebut the second time was not so great. I don't know if they're frying things too long or their oil is just old but everything; chips, tacos, etc. came out oily and tasted off. I could only eat one of the birria tacos. Definitely feel like I'm going to get indigestion tonight . It's also clear that the guacamole is store bought. It has the lemony/lime preservative taste. It's such a shame because it's not hard to make homemade guacamole and I feel like if the ingredients here were just a bit fresher, it would go further. It was a really surprising time because the first time we came here, the food tasted fresh and great. I don't know if they just have someone else cooking tonight, but we couldn't finish our meals. $65.00 for that. Such a shame

However, the portions were very limited in comparison to the price. I think they are getting a little greedy with pricing and portions. One person in my party ordered the mixed fajitas and it's was more than $20 for about a 6oz a chopped meats with vegetables, a hand full of rice and half a cup of refried beans. The person in my party that received the food looked at it, look up at me and said "really". Another person said "isn't that more than $20?". The person that ordered it cringed and apologized for ordering since we were paying. Another person ordered a burrito and it came all by itself on a plate. The put nothing to even make it look good. Another order was tacos and the meat was not even hot. Soft drinks came to $8 for the large and $6 for the small. Place hadn't been bad before reason why we decided to go this time, but I felt like I got robbed. Tab came to $100, when in other places that serve high quality food would charge $80 or less for the same things we ordered. The place looks nice though and the service was good. I just think those prices need to be checked or the portions need to be larger. I have been to the Mariachi Loco in Hammonton and with this kind of tab I would have fed an extra person or two.

I loved my chicken tacos and the guacamole was freshly smashed. The chips were fresh, everything was so fresh and tasty. I will be back to try their burrito. The service was attentive, quick, and detailed. This is a to go spot, so my husband and I waited outside in our truck while our food was made. The owner brought our order to us! Great customer service. The inside was clean, well lit, and I am hoping the summer time will mean stocked paletas in the freezer section of their spot.

I don't know why, when we walked in, it looked like the place was closed, because the tables were not set up, and didn't even look like it was open for business. It also took a really long time to wait for the food to be given to us. We ordered take-out from my friend's home, and had to drive all the way there to get it, had to deal with traffic, and got there kind of late, and it still wasn't ready. Other people also came in, got their food, and left. Just really strange. But, the food was still amazing!

The Real Deal: If you're in the mood for some authentic Mexican food, handmade tortillas and fresh,…read moresavory ingredients definitely show this restaurant some love. FYI: it's tucked away inside of a small shopping center. Be Careful: They serve complimentary tortilla chips and 4 different dipping sauces, which are all different levels of spicy (the red sauce being least spicy and the green the hottest). But the level of spice will sneak up on you, so try a little bit at a time because the kick will come with the after taste. These spices are hand-crafted and unlike any I've had at even some of the best Mexican restaurants I've been to. Come Hungry: The portions are big so come hungry because it will be the last meal you'll need for the day. Feel Good Eating Here: The server we had was patient, kind and willing to explain what certain things were that we didn't understand on the menu. She made recommendations and advised us about the spice level of certain items. I took off one star because it was kind of cold in there. They had an ineffective space heater I guess to supplement the building heat but it wasn't sufficient. But all in all, I'd still recommend.
