Very impressed with the food here. The seafood and Greek options were all delicious. They have a great happy hour until 7 PM with cheap drinks and good appetizers. It turns into quite a loud place after 9 PM with a club vibe. Definitely recommend it for a date night or fun night out with friends. If you come with the family I would come before 8 PM.

We always enjoy Axia. The zucchini chips as a shared starter is first rate. There's one vegan option, which is a good idea as my wife is vegan. Their pastitsio is served en croute. Only issue tonight was restaurant was full (good for the owner) but service was a tad slower than usual.
