    Used to be great! Server never came back to table after getting food. Asked for water, more coffee- didn’t receive. Soup was too salty to eat, food was overpriced for quality. Booth was put together with duct tape. Not returning! I think it’s under new management.

    Axels had a quiet, pleasant atmosphere on a Tuesday evening. The food and drinks were excellent, as was the service.

    Salmon caesar salad was delicious. We appreciated the free gluten free birthday cake. 4 stars on ambiance because it was cold in there but furnace being fixed.

    We took our 17 year old grandson there before we went to the Queen Tribute at the Chanhassen Theatre. It was his Birthday and he was so impressed with the restaurant. He ordered the Prime Rib and said it was delicious. He wants to go again sometime. So I guess we'll be coming again!!

    I believe this place is under new management and they do not have all their ducks in order. Understaffed, spotty service, incorrect order etc. But a lovely venue and we pray the new owners make it work!
