Macellaio RC South Kensington is an Italian steak restaurant at 84 Old Brompton Road. The concept brings the theatre and craft of a traditional butcher’s counter into the dining room, with a particular focus on Fassona beef from Piedmont and careful use of the whole animal.
Raw preparations reveal the quality and texture of the meat through battuta, carpaccio and tartare, while cured meats provide a natural starting point for sharing. Staff can explain the available cuts before they are grilled, helping diners choose between fillet, ribeye, striploin and larger T-bone or Fiorentina steaks.
The menu is not limited to the grill. Handmade pasta might include a raviolo filled with slow-cooked Fassona beef, gnocchi with pesto or maccheroni with a rich meat ragù, bringing Ligurian and northern Italian influences to the table alongside seasonal starters and vegetable dishes.
Tiramisù, chocolate cake, cheesecake and house ice cream provide a traditional finish, supported by Italian wine and aperitifs. The restaurant suits both a focused steak dinner and a meal shared across pasta and smaller plates, while guests with allergies should discuss current ingredients with the team.
