Axia Taverna: Reviews & Ratings
From beautiful ambiance and space, this is a Greek delight. I had dinner with my husband and friend here and we really enjoyed the ambiance of the restaurant in the small suburban town. Street parking is available. I had the moussaka and a cocktail. I enjoyed my cocktail and meal with great company. Service was attentive but also gave space when needed. My friend got the burger and fries and she enjoyed her meal.
Wonderful menu. Service was also very attentive. Ambiance and decor very relaxing. Have been a few times. My go to for Greek cuisine.
Great food. The place is very nice inside. Noise volume is okay from other guest tables. Service was okay. Very much had like 5 people with different tasks (water, silverware, drinks. Food and cleaning table) sort of just need 1 to 2 people for a service too many hands isn't good. The food was good. Enjoyed the company of 4 others who said their food was good. The only thing you have to keep in mind is the plates are small, but filling. The bill was good. We split the bill and it was around 70 each with the tip included.
Still one of the best restaurants in Tenafly. Everything is delicious and presented beautifully - half chicken, zucchini chips, Brussels sprouts, salmon. And they still give out long stem for mom's on Mother's Day!
Visited Axia and it was a lovely experience. The ambiance is very pretty. Easy parking. Service was good. The food is flavorful, unique and tasty. The restaurant is more on the pricy side but not too different from any other upscale Greek restaurant . Many Greek restaurants in NJ all have something unique about them, this restaurant certainly has a unique menu and style.
The food here is top of the line !! This is a higher end greek restaurant and the service also matches. I have nothing bad to day about this place and i have been a handful of times. The restaurant is clean and welcoming. Will definitely come back to try more options on the menu
