From the age of six, I remember watching my father and uncle break down a cow to feed eleven hungry children, five brothers and five sisters. At the time I hoped I would find a "real job" and never have to do that myself.

​

That "real job" lasted about six years. My obsession with fine produce started more than 25 years ago. Having been trained from a young age to be extremely particular when selecting fresh produce, I realised the best solution was simple. Run my own business and feed both myself and others with the very best quality ingredients.

​

Macelleria literally means “butcher shop”. What we offer is one of Australia’s most distinctive meat restaurant experiences, built on uncompromising quality and respect for great produce.

​

When you dine at Macelleria, you experience carefully sourced ingredients, traceable produce, ethical practices and a personalised approach to hospitality. Our goal is simple: serve exceptional meat and create a dining experience worth coming back for.

​

We look forward to welcoming you to experience the Macelleria difference.
