[NoFixedAddress]

Just curious, given the eerie similarity of the name (including the dots sur la 'U')...is this yet another reincarnation of the establishment that failed on Church Street after restaurant makeover???

[Dimbulb]

Nope. And nope (no connection to Church St).

Reviving an old thread.....anybody been of late? I'm thinking of holding a corporate event at this place and would be very interested in hearing recent thoughts. Thanks

[The Macallan 18]

I wouldn't put myself into that situation...there are much better places for 35 guests. Keep searching.

[millygirl]

Have you been Macallan? Can you provide me with some detail as to why you are suggesting to go elsewhere?

[Googs]

millygirl, The Macallan 18 doesn't make that many appearances on the board. In the interest of helping out, let me just say that I have great respect for (his/her) opinion on all things Italian. If it were me and TM18 said 'no go', I wouldn't go.
