Where do I even begin?! My family and I have been coming to Macaluso's for years. The food is simply outstanding! My husband and I were so happy we chose Macaluso's for our wedding reception. Our family and friends can't stop raving about the spread at cocktail hour and vienesse hour. Maroun, our maitre'd, was so helpful from beginning to end. We can't thank him enough! Everything was so perfect. There was not one thing that we weren't happy with. My bridal attendants were so kind and helpful the day of our wedding as well! They made sure we ate and made sure everything was great. Nawel & Layla - what sweethearts! I'm almost speechless because this place is really that amazing!!! I would recommend Macaluso's to anyone in a heart beat! Thanks Maroun and staff for making our day so special. You guys are the best!!! You will surely be seeing us again soon :-)
