Macellaio RC - Fitzrovia

We couldn’t be happier that the Macellaio RC family has grown again, this time with the Bloomsbury restaurant on Store Street that is just as terrific as its older brothers and sisters elsewhere in London and Milan. Not only is the food of a quality not often found at Italian restaurants in London – from the specially sourced meat to the Sicilian tuna and every last piece of artisan bread – but the drinks menu is seriously impressive as well. So, for whatever your occasion might be, whether there’s a big group of you or it’s date night, Macellaio RC Bloomsbury is a solid bet.

Begin, perhaps, with the bone marrow starter, the tuna tartare or the battuta served with spicy gorgonzola and Modena balsamic vinegar. For your main, given there’s such a sharp focus on high quality steak and fish at Macellaio RC Bloomsbury, we really recommend the rump steak served simply with Tuscan extra virgin olive oil or the tuna cacciatora. Then, naturally, this being an Italian restaurant and all, means pasta is also served, but the Macellaio RC Bloomsbury menu goes for quality rather than quantity, so only a few, extremely good pasta dishes feature. Folk in this part of London love Macellaio RC and you won’t struggle to see why.
