Macelleria Italian Steakhouse

“American classics with Italian flair” is how this polished Pelham spot bills itself. The instantly beloved steakhouse has quickly wooed neighborhood hearts by offering perfectly rendered steaks at reasonable prices, but it doesn’t stop there. Other highlights include scallops seared to fork-tender perfection as well as seemingly simple yet utterly wholesome pastas such as cavatelli with broccoli rabe and sausage.
Owned by restaurateur Anthony Lala, with Chef Joe Fusco at the helm, this is a can’t-miss menu. Daily specials are also well worth a second glance. Sole is bathed in a tart, buttery sauce and paired with spinach risotto; just as diver scallops are bound in a fragrant truffle sauce studded with peppers, corn and mushrooms.
