    Extremely satisfied with our dinner at Macellaio Soho. Even better than the first time I went. The waiters are very knowledgeable. The food is great. You can tell from the moment you step into the restaurant that this is the place for excellent steaks and they do deliver. Much, much, much recommended. Will go back again very soon.

    Booked for a pre-matinee lunch on an Open Table deal / recommendation -£25 for 3 courses and a glass of fizz. Very impressed; not sure how you beat this for value in Soho / theatreland. Nice room downstairs, welcoming & attentive (but not fussy) service, good food from a decent menu choice. Perfect for what we wanted. Oh, and the name…”apples & pears”? Nice touch :-)
