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

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.

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).

Came for the Sunday Roast, stayed for the 2-4-1 happy hour. I’ve been coming here for dinner a few times already. Meat is always on point and service is beyond excellent. We decided to try the Sunday Roast today. Amazing quality and great portions for only £25. We ended up staying so long that we got to the happy hour, so we used the time wisely and got some 2-4-1 cocktails in. Silvia and Alexio are the greatest hosts ever, as a team or on their own. And tiramisu is a must if you have a sweet teeth.

Came here for a couple of drinks before our dinner reservations because we were early. The staff go above and beyond, they have great conversations with you, and if you ask them for recommendations on drinks, they ask all the important questions about your taste and what flavors you are seeking before suggesting something. Once our drinks came, they were so kind to bring out olives. If you eat meat, they do bring out bread and pork for you to have as nibbles. The olives were the best olives I'd ever tasted in my whole life! I'd definitely come here again!

Incredible experience from start to finish. We were lucky enough to get the last available table on an evening table we hadn't booked, but were welcomed as warmly as if we were regulars. Everything we had was phenomenal. From the inspired beef fat candle for dipping bread in, to the perfect balance of flavours on the Bone Marrow Pizza. From the soft perfectly cooked sharing Fassona steak to the accompanying truffle chips (which by far are the best taste and presentation I've ever had of this named dish). The staff were attentive, incredibly knowledgeable, and friendly. We left the happiest we've been from a restaurant experience in quite some time.

The food was absolutely amazing, the fiorentina steak, cherry tomatoes salad and the truffle fries were a must order! Also huge thank you to Alessio for taking care of us and being so informative about where the ingredients were sourced from!
