The Meatpacking District is home to a stylish restaurant that pays appropriate homage to---well---meat. Macelleria, which means butcher shop in Italian, is located in a refurbished meat market, much of which has been left intact. The front is attractively tiled and has been beautified by an ornate wrought iron door, and vintage bar, but the back has retained its meat market feel with a butcher case filled with dinner choices and meat hooks along the wall. The menu is mostly Italian, and has a notably good selection of salumeria and rich pasta dishes such as the garganelli with oxtail ragù. Entrées have something of a Northern Italian-Austrian accent appropriate to the chef's upbringing in Austria, near the Italian border. We recommend the grilled fennel sausage with cannellini beans, or splurge on the porterhouse for two---the most expensive item on the menu.
