Terrific food and safe seating in these pandemic times. Really enjoyed it.
Axton's never disappoints! The menu is exquisite with something for everyone. My wife and I have been here many times and the food, service and atmosphere are always phenomenal.
The food was absolutely incredible and so was the service. Susan was excellent!
Food is excellent service is great. Great Italian classics and great specials
Outstanding food and service ! So unique and the presentation was incredible
Food was fantastic. Love the long hots. Spedini was great. Had the veal...To die for.
Entrance to restaurant is not inviting. Looks like they may be doing some kind of renovation.
Waited about 10 minutes to be seated. There seem to be some kind of confusion with the computer seating.
Tables were spaced apart nicely and big. Nice and comfortable.
The bread is AMAZING!!!! The best we have ever had at a restaurant.
Portions were large and tasty.
Wish we had brought a bottle of wine. Relaxing atmosphere and didn’t feel rushed.
Will be back.
A wonderful experience from making the reservation through to paying the check. It was easy to make reservations, even with COVID restrictions. I left a message as we had a larger group and someone called me back that same day. We had our temperatures checked when we arrived. Service was excellent - attentive, knowledgeable and friendly. Food was great - very large portions.
Liked the varied menu, good for carnivores and vegans. we had the Jeckyll and Hyde calmari and stuffed eggplant to start. Then the shrimp and chicken special and the vegan ristotto primavera, which is hard to find, usually made with meat stock- Excellent and the portion sizes were huge!
As always fantastic food! Great place for special occasion, date night or meeting friends for dinner
We are regulars and that food was on point as usual. We always enjoy our meals here.
Great place

Great menu. Appetizer longhots great. Always great specials. BYOB
It was a grate time the food was awesome grate place
My second time dining at this restaurant and my wife’s first. I told her it would be amazing and it was. From the mussels appetizer to our entrees everything was perfect. Service was attentive and courteous. Highly recommend.
Again! An awesome dinner. Friends came with us for the !st time and loved it. We had Susan as our server (everytime we've been there). She is completey wonderful. Food was aewsome. Highly recommend.
Always have a great meal when we go to Axtons. We eat there at least twice a month.
From First to last bite..absolutely delicious !!!!
Long wait bc of limited seating but they were very kind and obviously doing their best. Food is great as always
The food was OK. We tried the Calamari as seen on Chopped. Calamari was floury tasting, not crisp and light, as we prefer.
They ran out of scallops, and could only substitute more shrimp, which was a disappointment. Our table was near the kitchen, which was noisy and there was an angry staff incident.
The bread was as warm and lacked flavor, though there was a balsamic dip which was minimally supplied.
The frozen dessert (sorbet?) had good flavor and texture.
Food was amazing. The specials were exquisite. Most dishes have mushrooms, so if you don’t like them, don’t be afraid to ask them to leave them off.
I have heard so much about Axton’s from family and friends. My husband and I thought it might be the perfect place for our anniversary celebration. Axton’s did not disappoint! We shared an order of the Jekyll and Hyde calamari, which was tasty. Then it was a filet mignon for him and Axton’s pork rack for me. I love good food, my husband doesn’t really care. He’s as happy at a diner as he is at fine dining. Surprisingly, he loved his filet and I thoroughly enjoyed my pork!! Dessert was chocolate lava; good, but I wish I ordered cannoli dessert.
The only reason I did not give 5 stars is the service and ambience were not up to par. We will go back again 🥰 because good food is most important!
We ate outside because it was a beautiful night. They did a nice job segregating the outside eating area from the parking lot. The food was phenomenal and the portions are large. Very excited to find this BYOB and will definitely be back!
The food was absolutely amazing!! We will certainly be back with friends.
Date night it was perfect!! Love the Jekyll and Hyde calamari was delicious!
Excellent place. Can’t beat it
Great food and excellent service. Been there numerous times, and have never been disappointed
Excellent food as usual!
Great food and Francesco was great! Very nice evening for our wedding anniversary!
Anton is always very innovative with is specials. Scallops over apple fig risotto was delicious.
Great restaurant great food! Will definitely go back again.
Excellent as always. Best chef in the area.
I always judge a restaurant by the meatballs they make. I ordered meatball as a appetizer and was very disappointed. They were very dense and hard in texture, not good at all.
Axton’s never disappoints. Love coming here to dine as the food is amazing
The greeting from our arrival on was outstanding. There was very little wait time. As a matter of fact we were given a special seating because oneof our party was in a wheelchair.
Outstanding dinner, one of the best that we have ever had. Service was great and the food was exceptional! The Hot Antipasto appetizer was perfectly prepared, and the sauce was great. My main course, Casanova steak, was perfectly cooked and seasoned, and my GF's Ravioli were great. Crepe Cannoli for desert was shared and we fought over it. Highly recommend Axton's!
The chicken dishes we ordered were good, the salmon was more risotto than meat pretty disappointing. Dessert was generous. Main issue was the service, not even half the tables were full, we were the first ones there for dinner and the waitress was extremely pushy trying to get us to place our food order. The entire staff remained pushy trying to wrap our food while we were still eating and we weren’t even there an hour at that point. Just felt very pressured and like they just wanted to flip the table, wouldn’t return.
Always a great meal. Excellent and friendly service. All at an affordable price
