The team behind Macellaio RC has announced the launch of its third restaurant in Union Street later this year. With popular restaurants already open in South Kensington and Exmouth Market, founder Roberto Costa’s new Macellaio RC will be housed in the recent redevelopment of Union Yard Arches and will also introduce two exciting unique new concepts – a theatrical in-house butchery and a Ligurian bakery.
Inspired by the numerous theatres in the local area, the beef will be dry-aged on site, dramatically hung behind glass, a stage will extend into the restaurant between two large banquet tables, upon which the Macellaio RC team will showcase the best cuts of the day.
A striking white marble butcher’s block will be framed by dramatic curtains and will sit pride of place in the ground floor dining hall, where experienced butchers and chefs will prepare steaks, carpaccios, tartares, and cured meats in front of the guests.
