Macellaio RC Union Street Review - Southwark - London - The Infatuation

"Macellaio serves very tender, Italian-style steaks cooked simply on a hot grill and served with just a bit of rock salt and olive oil. Unless you’re quite well-off, it’s unlikely you’ll use it for a quick drop-in at lunch, but it’s good for a payday splurge or celebrating that 1% raise you spent the best part of a year campaigning for. They also have tasty cicchetti bites (starters) as well as good pasta, which you should definitely order on the side, because who actually likes creamed spinach?" - David Paw

9 Best Sustainable Meat Restaurants in London | Nose-to-Tail Butchers | Eater London

"Macellaio RC now operates five restaurants across London, with one in Milan. Championing Italian Fassona beef and Sicilian tuna, the restaurant on the bustle of Exmouth Market is fronted by a butcher’s shop where the Piedmontese beef is prepared. Bred in the Italian alps, Fassona beef is remarkably tender, due to the hypertrophic muscle growth unique to the cows thanks to a quirk of genetics. Dry-aged on-site for between five and seven weeks, the beef is showcased either raw in a tartares or carpaccios; or with steaks such as the Fiorentina — cut to size in the dining room, generously seasoned and grilled." - Jonathan Hatchman

Amazing food, the Staff were really great. My friend never normally orders a blue steak anywhere but tonight was exceptional. When we arrived we were relocated to a great table opposite the kitchen. Great evening!.

Amazing! We booked a table at Farringdon restaurant for 2 on Friday, it was soooo good we booked table for 4 Saturday as well! Food was outbid this world - all of it. The choice cut T-Bone was best I’ve had and I’ve had a fair offering of steaks over the years. The service was exceptional and special praise must go to Anita who was just sensational, so friendly and knowledgeable she couldn’t do enough for us. You need to go try this place out!

I had a wonderful dinner with my partner for my birthday, I would highly recommend Macellaio for a special occasion. We were served by the very kind Silvia who explained all the steak cuts to us in detail and made sure we had the best dinner. I also got a lovely birthday tiramisu and we were offered a couple of digestivi at the end. The atmosphere and decor of the restaurant was also perfect for an evening of steak and red wine 🍷 all in all, we had a great time here and I look forward to the next visit.

I have been here 2 times and this is now my new go-to spot for good steak..it is a bit more pricey but if you want good quality meat that's perfectly cooked this is the place to go. They have great sides to compliment the food too. Both times I ordered Costata Hereford (600g for £70), which is a juicy cut. We asked for medium rare both times. And it was perfect! I enjoy my meat on the fatty side but it might be too fatty for some people. The cherry tomato salad (£7) was amazing! It has a simple olive olive dress and it was fresh. The truffle and Parmesan potatoes (£8) were great too. First time I went thru were a bit dry, but thought I would give it a chance the second time and they were buttery and moist. I have a 5/5 for the service because it was so quick, attentive and friendly, loved it. The atmosphere was very chilled and gave that renaissance vibe (darkish lighting, vintage and dark reddish interior).

Really nice atmosphere. Pleasant staff. They gave advice and described the types of steaks they had available. We went for Costata to share between the two of us. Really enjoyed the truffle potatoes and the complimentary bread served. Cherry tomato salad was also good. We were too full for dessert! Will be back again to try the other options.

Pricey steakhouse with great service. Excellent steak to cut. Fatty and perfectly cooked. Waiter recommendations were perfect. Bottle of Italian wine that was reasonably priced. Veggies on the side were excellent (but small portions) Kind service with a digestive drink on the house.
