I don't even know where to begin. This place was fantastic the last year. The owner started leaving since they opened another place up in Blackwood. I have yet to be there, I think it's a grocery store. Well, every time he (the owner) is not present at that restaurant, it's like no one can mange that place correctly. It's honestly disappointing. I work in Bellmawr and we USED to enjoy ordering here for Taco Tuesday but everything has been reduced in size and so have the portions. I also noticed we were charged for Al Pastor Tuesday but did not request this. I ordered 3 regular tacos like I always do and somehow was given 4 mini tacos. Not sure why I'm being charged for a side salsa. I'm okay with a smaller portion on that not reduced meat. I eat more tortilla and vegetables than Al Pastor meat. Once the owner is present at the restaurant, then we don't have issues. Not sure if anyone else is having this problem but this is our 6th time having this issue and most likely won't be ordering again if we hear that he's not there. It's an inconvenience for the amount we're being charged and not matching with the amount of food being offered. I had baby sized bite pieces for lunch. I wouldn't even consider that a spoonful.

Carnita taco

This place is definitely not authentic Mexican food. The food is more like something you can get at chipotle. The red sauce was very sweet with no spice at all. I personally don't like my sauce for my tacos to be sweet so that definitely wasn't something I would want to try again. The food was 2.5/5 the asada and carnitas were very dry with not much taste. The campechano tacos were definitely my least favorite. I also had the fried ice cream and that was actually very good !! I would come back just to pick up dessert.

I'm always on the lookout for good Mexican food and will happily drive a long distance to get the good stuff. When I noticed that a new Mexican place had opened close to home, I had to check it out right away. With the COVID pandemic limiting us to only getting takeout, close is a good thing. Their menu includes all of the standards, so we ordered a bunch of stuff to make our own sampler. Yeah, we'd have a lot leftover, but if it's good, who cares! When I say the standards, I mean tamales, enchiladas, chiles rellenos and few other items. Sure, they have a lot more than this on the menu, but if they can make these items well, they can probably win me over. Well, they certainly won me over and I have a new go-to place for Mexican food! ALL of the dishes that we ordered were some of the best I've had anywhere. I can't wait to go back and pick up some of their steak dishes. I look forward to the day when it's safe to start eating out at restaurants again because Avocado Mexican Grill will be on my list of places to go. However, their great food and close proximity to home means I'll be ordering curbside pickup many more times between now and then! Plus, despite only interacting with the staff on the phone and at the car window, they were incredibly friendly and helpful.

Not great, not awful. Definitely Americanized Mexican fare. The extended family got together and ordered a number of dishes to share. The chiles rellenos platter was listed as, "flame roasted poblano peppers stuffed with chicken and cheese." Oddly, this meant there were two peppers, one stuffed with only cheese, the other stuffed with only chicken (which resulted in the only dry chili rellenos I've ever eaten). Did it deliver what was described, technically yes, but it was definitely disappointing. The chicken avocado salad was awful. The same dry chicken slapped on top of a few handfuls of lettuce, olives, and slapped on pico and corn relish in a gummy shell bowl. Terrible. Both kids' beef tacos orders seemed good enough for them to polish off quickly, so well done there. The chorizo street tacos were also okay, but nothing noteworthy. Definitely far inferior compared to the Trenton area Mexican places we're accustomed to. We don't make it down to the Runnemede area nearly enough for me to attempt another visit here, there are too many better choices in the area. Sadly, one and done for us.

Churros with Caramel Dip
Alisha L.

This is my third time ordering from this place and let me tell youuuu! Their food is BUSSIN you hear me! I had to tell the world how authentic and well put together their Shrimp Tacos are. I dont know what sauce they used in it but it is AMAZING okay. Then I ordered the churros, it came with the caramel dip..Delicious! Must eat it warm though. If it gets cold, just heat it up in the microwave for 10 seconds and it taste just as good. Hands down the best Mexican restaurant in town!

Went here yesterday, my lady found an amazing $20.00 off coupon. The place is located in a strip…read moremall, and if it's a busy day, I can see parking can be an issue. The place looks small from the outside but it has a decent intimate dining room. The decor is decent, the wooden tables stand out the most, divided by a piece of glass, nice touch. We ordered the elote, which was by far the best elote (Mexican street corn) I ever had. It was full with so much flavor. It made me upset that we ordered only one. I ordered Al pastor tacos and my lady ordered shrimp tacos. They didn't have the traditional green and red sauce, they had this mixed dipping sauce. Caution it's so spicy that you might yell for the waiter to bring you water (light weight I know). My tacos were decent, however when I saw other people's orders I kind of regretted my order. Lastly, my lady doesn't eat meat, and her shrimp had pieces of meat on it. Definitely some contamination going on back there. We just wanted to bring that to your attention. The waitress, she was amazing, coming to our table and making sure we were ok. She was very sweet. Oh yea, the food came out super fast. The wait wasn't too long.

I pass this restaurant relatively often and have been nervous to try. Will it be authentic? Will it…read morebe worth the money? Is it just another "Mexican restaurant with microwaved cuisine? The usual questions, I suppose. I can answer "Yes" to the first two questions. I ordered the Enchiladas de Mole and a Chicharron Taco. I was wildly impressed. The restaurant was not packed but it seemed to be occupied by the locals. The mole was probably some of the best I have had in a long, long time--which says a lot, since I have had some really outstanding mole. The taco was fresh, and I definitely could've ordered more than 1. My critiques would center the chips that come to the table. The first round weren't as fresh as the second. Also, the portion was pretty mediocre. That being said: the salsas that accompanied the chips were impressive. They will bring you more chips if requested, but I will have to assume they only provide you with 10 because they are made fresh and they don't want to waste--I get it, but still! The chicharron taco was documented as being crispy but mine was not. It might've been the same that reduced the crispiness, but I will argue that it was not likely crispy at any time. Please note: this did not take away from the flavor. I would, however, like the food to match the description. The service was great. The waitress was attentive, pleasant, and patient. She made good suggestions and stood behind the quality of the food.

We attended on Cinco de Mayo when we were there it was quite empty, and there was plenty of servers…read morehowever, despite this, the kitchen was quite slow and it took a long time for our order to arrive. The food itself was OK. It wasn't something we're going to be rushing back to, but it was plenty of serviceable. Certain dishes like the enchiladas were a lot better than the tacos. The tacos were a little underseasoned. Despite the name, this is a BYOB restaurant and they don't really have any ready to go mixers such as a nonalcoholic margarita, that was OK we may do just using jarritos.

The first time I went into kitchen 519 was so long ago. I've gone back since then many times and…read moremust say that the food has really upgraded. Out of all of my visits, my favorite is the weekend brunch menu. There are so many yummy things to choose from like the breakfast burrito, the banana Forester French toast, the various of Benedict's including crab, and there were a bunch of various breakfast sandwiches, but the most menu appealing one that I liked is the pork roll. On my last trip I wound getting a chicken brie apples bacon on brioche bread. It was a special of the day. From the moment I bid into it, I knew I would love it for the savoriness, the crisp and sweet tasting bread. There was a side of potatoes... Very nicely seasoned and the perfect crunch to them. On my last visit, it was a total of 10 people in our group and the customer service was great. We were all able to pay with separate checks... Always a perk. The waiter was super super friendly and kept our coffee refills going. Inside it is busy which could lead away from the quiet ambience, but I didn't mind it at all.

Former home vibe, i was one of the earliest weekday diners. Since it a solo dinner, I opted for a few sides: Kimchi rice Cucumber salad Brussel sprouts (no meat or butter) The cucumber salad was so good, I ordered a second portion!! The tofu burnt ends and bbq jack fruit sounded so intriguing that I almost begged the kind server to ask the chef if they could serve a side portion. Otherwise the bbq is served in pound increments. For my lucky tummy, they obliged and wow those are both delicious vegan options! Maybe next time, i will visit here earlier during my trip to be able to take home leftovers. Booth was cozy and love that water bottle to refill my glass is on my table which sounds weird but I drink alot of water! Small place , would recommend reservations for weekend dining. Parking lot was limited too. Enjoy!
