Macelleria Lassandro
About
Macelleria Lassandro is a family‑run steakhouse and traditional meat shop that has been serving the people of Santeramo in Colle since 1799. With a heritage that spans over two centuries, the restaurant prides itself on sourcing only the finest local cattle, particularly the renowned Charolaise breed, and on maintaining an artisanal approach to every cut. The menu showcases classic Puglian barbecue, along with an impressive array of homestyle salumi that are crafted without preservatives and sold by the kilo right at the counter or enjoyed in the cozy Braceria. The Braceria is the heart of the establishment: a small brick‑fired kitchen where each steak is cooked to perfection over open flame, letting the natural flavors dance with subtle herbs and a splash of local wine. Guests can also reserve the Braceria for private events such as birthday dinners or company gatherings, ensuring an intimate and authentic culinary experience. Beyond the kitchen, Macelleria Lassandro upholds a tradition of transparency and quality. Every animal is raised in a semi‑bred system that safeguards animal welfare, and the beef, pork, and poultry are all produced locally in Puglia, guaranteeing freshness and traceability. The shop also offers seasonal pastries and delicacies, underscoring the place’s commitment to wholesome, homemade products. Whether you’re a local food lover, a history enthusiast fascinated by the family story, or simply looking for a hearty, authentic meal in a warm, welcoming atmosphere, Macelleria Lassandro invites you to taste the legacy of Puglia’s best meats in a setting that feels both timeless and inviting.
