    The owner of Axis pizza contacted me to apologize for my last experience and offered me $25 toward my next order. I obliged and I must say the experience the 2nd time around was INFINITELY better. I said in my last review that despite the terrible service the pizza is good. I shall reiterate: The pizza is really great. I would venture to say it's the best pizza in the neighborhood.

    Now, will I think twice about ordering late night for fear that my great pizza my never show? Yes. BUT when I'm feeling lucky I will most likely choose Axis for my pizza (and hot wing) needs.

    Nice save, Axis.

    The service at this place is dreadful. The guy who took our order was condescending and rude. It was even more annoying because he's a 90 lb loser.

    My wife and I decided to check this place out because we heard they had a decent salad bar. Well, we didn't know the salad bar charged by the pound--what is this, Whole Foods? The annoying order-taker rolled his eyes and spoke in mumbly broken English, like he was so inconvenienced that he had to take nine seconds to explain this to us.

    The salad bar itself was decent. The selection was a bit broader than you would expect from a hole in the wall pizza place and most of the foods was relatively high quality. The greens, however, which are the most important part of a freaking salad, were wilted garbage. This factors pretty heavily into the low rating (coupled with the awful service).

    We also got a shrimp appetizer. It was pretty good--decent portion and alright quality. Not amazing, but not bad by any means.

    Back to the terrible service: We had our one-year-old with us and they didn't even offer a high chair. We had to take turns holding our son as we ate. Considering the fact that no one else was in the entire restaurant, they could have at least offered some assistance in this area.

    It sounds like this a place for college kids to show up for late night pizza and wings. That's cool, I guess, but don't expect to get acceptable service and don't expect much from the salad bar.

    I've gotten the greek salad from here twice...the second time the lettuce was meh.  But they don't skimp on the feta, and that's my kind of salad.  The office says that the sandwiches are very good, although I've yet to try.  I'd be interested in trying the salad bar if I ever dined in.  They do have a pretty spacious dining room.  If you're ever interested in going, check out what specials they have going on.  Apparently yesterday was 1/2 off burgers, when the burgers are already $3!

    Everything that I have had from their menu has been awesome.  

    The wings, hoagies and salad bar are all delicious.  

    On Tuesday all of their platters are $2 off.  For $7.25 I got a large cheese steak (with onions and Whiz - Yup the real stuff), a larger order of fries, cherry peppers, coleslaw and a Cesar salad.  It's enough food for two lunches.

    I have to say that the cheese steak was best I have had in a long time.
