Fun Place Great Atmosphere and Great food and Classic Cocktails.
We were happy to be able to get here for their last day. Axels has always been a go to for us to celebrate special occasions. So sad they decided to close. This location is a hidden gem along the river.
This is a place where I love to belly up to the bar, get my wings, bull bites, a few martinis ? and then talk about how amazing life really is when you choose to look at it that way
Axel's Restaurant Mendota has recently undergone changes, and while some customers have expressed disappointment, others still find joy in the experience. The food has received mixed reviews, with some describing it as mediocre and noting high prices for small portions, while others praise specific dishes like the excellent walleye fish. The service has been reported as slow at times, but there are also mentions of impeccable service from staff like Patrick, who ensure that customers are satisfied. The ambiance, which some feel is old and dark, is still appreciated by others for its quaint, upholstered, old-fashioned supper club feel. The outdoor patio is a delightful spot along the Great Rivers Bicycle Trail, making it a nice choice for nature lovers. Customers hope the restaurant will consider returning to a supper club model with included soup and salad. Overall, Axel's remains a place for special occasions, with many considering it a hidden gem along the river.
