Macellaio RC is a growing family of three Italian restaurants in London.
Our restaurants are most famous for its fine steak. In fact, Macellaio means "butcher" and we like to call our steakhouses the butchery with tables. The steak we serve is exclusively from the Fassona beef breed, sourced from special mountain valleys in the north of Genoa.
We take pride in sourcing incredible authentic Italian ingredients, food with utmost respect, preparing it with love, and expertly cooking each dish bringing to life a delightful trattoria dining experience.
Immerse yourself in an unparalleled dining experience where your steak is masterfully butchered and presented to you before being cooked, and where our chefs craft artisan breads, focaccia and pizza in-house.

I returned my pasta meal because it wasn’t hot enough, the server told me three times that it was tested in the kitchen and met the requirements. I assume they only tested the middle as the outside was tepidI. wasn’t happy with this and it was then heated up, I felt embarrassed by the way it was handled with everyone looking, no apology just kept telling me it was hot enough! My husband’s steak was perfectly cooked and he enjoyed his meal so all was not lost.

Excellent food but the service has worsened in the last couple of years. They forgot to bring the wine at the table, I’ve ordered a sambuca with the coffee that came like 10 minutes after the coffee, which defeats the all purpose of it. Prosecco was quite bad but the food was great though

Just a bit disappointed and underwhelmed. Poor service. Waiter didn’t ‘sell’ the products at all well and essentially confused us all. Felt ripped off as a result. Pasta was cold. Wrong orders arrived. Incorrect orders taken. All made to seem like we were a hassle. I’ve genuinely never given a poor review for anything ever. So must’ve been poor!!!

Best steak I've ever had, again!!! This is my second visit and it confirmed the first visit was no fluke. Thanks very much Macellaio. Keep doing whatever it is you're doing.

Amazing service, ambience was perfect. Steak (and the Parmesan and truffle chips) were the best we have ever had.
