Unbelievable Italian sub. I could tell by the weight of it that it was a solid choice. Absolutely the best I have ever had… filled with, if you can believe it, meat and cheese, not a few measly slices of meat and cheese and extra veggies to fill it out. All on a GREAT sub roll. I went home and could only finish 2⁄3 of it. I had the balance for a SUBstantial lunch. Try it you will love it.

Great food and the employees are really nice. I love the chicken fingers dinner. The sweet and spicy sauce is the BOMB! They also have fast delivery. One of my favorites in the area.

Great place, fast delivery. One of the neighborhood favorites so far. Only problem one might have is that there are too many option.

Picked up some take-out while in Boston for a conference. Food was ready and hot when I arrived. Great comfort food.

Never order from this place. If you dare, make sure you ask fully what’s on each sandwich/calzone. They totally left that out of the menu and the teriyaki calzone was the worst thing ever. I don’t trust this place and will never recommend it.

Pretty solid takeout food, great subs — have had the parms, steak tips, pastrami — can’t go wrong. However wanted to write a review to give props to the delivery guy they’ve got — spikey hair, tattoos, and always rocking a Boston sports shirt. He’s awesome — goes out of his way to make conversation, super friendly. It’s a pleasant respite from your normal delivery guy. Can always count on him and he’s a class act. Highly recommended.

I got a steak and cheese sub, my friend ordered the steak and cheese with peppers and mushrooms but they gave him one with egg and when we told them about it. They just got super defensive, that wasn’t a major issue though. The food was barely edible, steak was too chewy and definitely not enough cheese. Barbecue sauce addition was too sweet but was good sized.

Jet lagged, I ordered the grilled chicken pesto tortellini from AK’s. I usually don’t get chicken in pasta because why screw up a good thing, you know? But, based on my experience with AK’s grilled chicken in their greek salad I said what the heck. Was not disappointed. The chicken, pesto, and pasta were so good that I’m thinking about putting an order into a time capsule to share with our future generations.

I felt the need to update our AK’s review. This is our go-to place for delivery. They have so many consistently high quality options here, they are almost always early compared to their estimated delivery time, and their prices are incredibly reasonable especially considering we almost always have leftovers. We’ve tried and love: mozz sticks, fried ravioli, wing dings, the burgers are surprisingly great, steak tips, ribs, several subs, all of the grilled cheese sandwiches(tuna melt is the best), turkey club, chicken gyro, several wraps(grilled meat lovers is ridiculous), fried haddock or fried shrimp dinner, and a bunch of the sides. Yea we order from here too often… whatever it’s a great place and totally worth it.

Hawaiian pizza was dry and bland. The mozzarella sticks were also dry and didn’t seem fresh. I ordered delivery and the food was fairly cool when it arrived. But… the curly fries were amazing!

great portions, food was wicked tasty. Could have used a little more sauce, but that’s OK. Don’t get delivery though. Took about an hour. Food was still piping hot so no complaints there, but would’ve been worth the gas money or walk to just go pick it up yourself. Regardless, will definitely eat here again

I came here after venturing out to Lawn on D. I’m a huge fan of anything pesto, so I got the grilled chicken pesto tortellini pasta(I believe it was $ 12 or so) with a side salad(which was another $ 2.50) to go. It was literally a baby salad, so don’t bother adding that to the side. The pasta dish was huge and pesto was everywhere. Yum! I also got lightly breaded chicken tenders(6 pcs for $ 7.99 I believe) with ranch dip. I like my tenders not deep fried and not cloaked with a heavy batter. I was happy with the food here. AK’s has seating for those who don’t want take-out or delivery, but the place isn’t huge.

Finally I found a pizza delivery place that rocks. Excellent pizza with outstanding crunchy crush. Well done! Bookmarked this place.

AK’s has become my boyfriend and I’s go to place because it is so convenient to where we live. Their food quality has pretty much stayed the same in the last 4 years I have lived here, some of their menu items are a lot better than others, you just have to know what to order. They are pretty much what you would expect from a pizza/sub shop. Their prices are reasonable and the portions are large. I see some poor reviews about their pizza crust, but I think it all comes down to preference, because that is the one thing I love about their pizza. I love the way their crust tastes! The quality of the food isn’t amazing by any means, but it’s convenient and easy and the most decent take out that we have gotten from a sub shop in Southie. It is best to anticipate an hour delivery time because of how busy they have gotten in the last few years. I don’t think they are rude as some of the other comments state, but I do think they are understaffed sometimes and super busy and can be a bit blunt and matter of fact on the phone rather than friendly and cheerful.

The best delivery mac and cheese I have ever had! We did delivery from here at the end of football season, knowing nothing about this place, and we were not disappointed. The menu is large, tons of different options to appease pretty much anyone. I wouldn’t recommend this for anyone on a diet, but if you are looking to pig out and watch sports, this should be a go-to on a Sunday. Delivery didn’t take too long and everyone was pleased with their meal’s taste and portion size. Everything we tried was tasty and still warm, which can vary from delivery joints. I will def have to order from here again, and make sure you try the mac and cheese!

Good pizza. I personally like crispy crusts and the crust on this pizza was a little softer than I like on the sauce portion but the flavored were good. Our party got a large ak supreme, large buffalo chicken pizza, and garden salad for 40 dollars. The garden salad came in a small Tupperware container and wasn’t really anything great but I always am grateful to have a side of crunchy fresh veggies while I eat pizza. I’m not sure if it was just our order but our buffalo chicken pizza came with banana peppers and it was pretty spicy. Unless you enjoy spicy I would recommend not getting this. The online delivery ordering system is very convenient and we ordered our food Saturday night at around 10pm and they came a little before 11. Only place really open late at night in Boston that delivers that I could find.(I’m not from Boston)

Though essentially $ 1 per piece, I couldn’t say that I would order buffalo wings from any other place in Southie. Each wing is hearty with plenty of meat and sauce, so my roommates and I have enjoyed more than a few NFL games with AK buffalo sauce plastered on our faces(which is what you want, right?). The wings remain relatively crispy following the application of both buffalo sauce and either ranch or bleu cheese dressing(both included), which is more than one could say about most other wings around Southie. AK’s earned a special place in my hear the second time I ordered from them. My roommate and I were chowing down on some of their delicious buffalo bird flesh when we realized we had been shorted 4 wings. Yes, we count the wings. We have the hearts of fat children and are both younger brothers. Anyway, I promptly called AK’s and they rectified the issue by supplying us with the 4 truant wings PLUSTWOBONUSWINGS. Plus bonus ranch. Everyone loves a good bonus. All in all, AK’s is my wing place until future mandate.

Love this place. Perfect for what it is, a reliable pizza/sub takeout restaurant. I live more or less next door, so I constantly order from here. They are quick(usually 20 minutes), friendly and the food is tasty. I have ordered a variety of menu items at this point. All have met or exceeded my expectations. Definitely a trusty sub/pizza take out place. My favorites from here include: –Pepperoni Pizza –Wings(breaded) –Burgers(beef and turkey) –Steak & Cheese Sub Also their rewards program is a nice touch if you order from here often.

AK’s is a very reliable takeout place in my neighborhood. It’s become my go-to spot when I’m feeling lazy and hungry. I typically order through Foodler, so it’s super easy. They are always speedy and friendly, whether ordering delivery or pick-up. Their chicken wings and tenders are great. Like, really great, Best I’ve had from a takeout place in Southie. The food is fresh, and you can tell it isn’t the processed frozen stuff you get at most places. I typically get them plain, with sauce on the side, so they arrive hot and crispy. I’m also a fan of their steak and cheese subs. Very, very, very tasty. I can’t speak to their pizza, but I tried a calzone once. It was just OK.
