Straight forward food done exceptionally well. Attentive service. Great location, close to Southwark tub station but tucked away and off the busy main road. The chicken was well cooked and particularly tasty. Will be visiting again soon.

Good wide menu, especially if you like steak - which I do. Shame no mushrooms side dish though. I had a nice steak and chips, with an apple pie and caramel sauce for desert. Would be nice if they had some low-alcohol beers - as many restaurants do these days.

This is one of my favourite restaurants in London. Amazing staff, amazing food and amazing wine. The Lardo bruschetta is sublime and you have to try the burrata starters and don't get me started on the selection of quality meat.

They didn’t ask us how we wanted the steak cooked - it turned up at the table a little later under its own steam! Menu/wine list intimates that they tie the way they cook the steak to wine choice you make - they clearly didn’t. All very confusing!

Poor service, prices did not respect what waiter said, be careful at the weight of the meat! Because they bring you more and charge you more

I am a fan of this Macellaio. This shop is a stylish restaurant where modern British and Italian coalesced. I made pasta for today. Pasta is not good. Steak is recommended. I always like desserts in Ikeike. By F from Japan

These guys deserve a 10/10: great and relaxed location, amazing food (I come from Genoa and I can't believe I've found a place in London where to eat Focaccia and Focaccia Al Formaggio), and super staff (Emanuele has been very nice and professional during our dinner). Macellaio RC is now definitely on my list of favourite restaurants...well done and see you soon!!

I gave 6 on the Macellaio in South Kensington because the steak was perfect, but here in Macellaio Union the steak was not even close, it was just good. Anyway, we eat well, the starters were super nice. The focaccia al formaggio was the best choice yesterday.

Great restaurant. Lovely atmosphere and the steak was cooked to perfection. Good selection of wines, if somewhat pricey. We had beef carpaccio and steak tartare for starters, they were beautifully seasoned and decent sized portions. Oh, don't forget to get a portion of the homemade foccacia...Oh. my. God.

overall good impression and nice food, but the temperature was too hot that we couldn't enjoy entirely our dinner and then suddenly a big smoke smell made us smelly after we were out.

The service was fantastic. Incredibly warm and welcoming. The food was divine. I had steak tartare followed by the T-Bone Fiorentina cooked to absolute perfection (rare). The chocolate trufffle tasted truly orgasmic. The morellino was good although I have tasted a better one, but it was still outstanding. Was a perfect birthday meal. Will definitely be visiting again.

Staff was ok, a bit pushy. Meat was super average, we paid over a £100 for the meat to share for 3 people but was disappointed because the meat was over cooked ( I asked Medium and I got well done and my friends got med-rare and they got medium to well) which is disappointing because I thought they knew how to cook their meat. Also meat had no taste at all... the restaurant was full of smoke from the kitchen and when I came out I could smell it on my clothes and hair! Not coming back.

The service and staff were very curtious and professional. The T bone steak was very tasty as were the sides. The mashed potato was lumpy but we ordered this once our main had arrived so could have been rushed. The ravioli were too aldente and the sauce was too dry, not pleasant at all. We complained but wasn’t offered to change

Excellent food and lovely staff. Note that a knife in the table is not aggressive staff but a novel way of serving the cutlery. Enjoy.
