Now for the dirt (literally). An ex-roomate worked in that building in another food establishment. He stated because of the historical nature and age of the building, all the restaurants are given special treatment from the board of health as far as sanitaion goes. Apparently the basements in that building is disturbingly rat and roach infested and there's nothing that can be done about it short of demolising the building and starting over. Remember, that building was the original cattle stockyard in Boston. Though I really do like the Faneuil Hall marketplace and everything that goes on there - it really is fun - I refuse to eat there.
I haven't been in a few years, but I loved the Union Oyster house the couple of times I went there.
