Part of a family of Italian restaurants, Macellaio Roberto Costa takes on the ethos of the original Italian restaurants, striving to offer their guests the very best in Italian cuisine, from baking bread in-house to sourcing beef from the valleys of Genoa. When they say it's fresh, they mean it — so it’s not unfamiliar for guests to watch as their steaks are butchered minutes before they’re cooked.
The Northcote Road eatery is as relaxed as can be, modelled after the authentic trattoria. And in true Italian style, the casual dining room is tailormade for informal dining, whether it’s a dinner date, family gathering or catch-up with a good friend. And best of all, it’s perfect for post-work dining as it can be found in the heart of Battersea, between Wandsworth and Clapham Commons.
One look at the menu and diners will find that this isn’t the typical Italian menu they’re used to. They’ll find a range of pastas and starters such as their tagliatelle with ragu and soup of the day. But above all, they specialise in meat. This offers a wealth of delights for carnivores who can be as adventurous as they dare with the likes of offal, grilled rabbit and more.
For the best Italian dishes this side of Italy, there’s no better choice in London than Macellaio. And this culinary experience can be even more memorable for Gourmet Society members when they call to book ahead and present their cards upon arrival. With extra money off their bills, they can indulge in a bottle of vino, dessert or an extra course.
