What a fantastic evening. Food tremendous, service tremendous. What more can you ask for? Always treated like part of the family. Pino is so passionate about his food which shows in both presentation and taste. Can't recommend highly enough.

I went here with a friend for the 5 course wine tasting with lunch and it did not disappoint! The food was perfectly paired with the wine and it was delicious, every course was cooked to perfection and the wine was excellent quality. It was a great way to spend the afternoon, trying some new wines and eating amazing food. The atmosphere was relaxed and the service was great. I have been here before for dinner but the wine tasting was a great day out and with generous top ups of wine and dishes like smoked salmon, rib eye steak, crab and truffle it was excellent value for money. Would definitely recommend .

I was dying to try this authentic Italian restaurant,as I had heard great things. It's very small, maybe 15 seats.ambiance is lovely but a few iny group felt they were being looked down upon. Menu is....limited....and it's not cheap. I thought it was Italian but the menu did not look italian. Portions are TINY. We did think about going for a fish supper when we left but we had a creamy dessert which took the edge off. I will not be returning.

Excellent food and service. We booked a table here for the first time this evening and can say it certainly didn’t disappoint. Initially we were let down by our prebooked local cab and arrived 15 mins late - we phoned to let them know and they couldn’t have been nicer. We went to the pasta night - 5 courses for £25pp superb value for money with authentic Italian cuisine.. we ‘ll certainly be regulars here..

I've left several reviews for Pino and his team. The man has a passion for food, keeping his customers happy, and is simply not just after the money. Quality and happy customers appears to be his main priority. Pasta Thursday was sublime, A1 as usual. Good to see him back open after COVID, it's been too long. Worthy portions, so many flavours, and different ingredients, and huge selections of wine. Attentive service staff as well, friendly and on the ball.

Have been aware of the reputation of this restaurant for a few years but living 25 miles away hadn’t had the opportunity to visit. However last weekend we visited along with my cousin and her husband who are regulars. Firstly, i loved the fact it was a tiny restaurant, only a handful of tables well spaced out. It’s a very intimate and cosy setting and suits the food very well. We all opted for the tasting menu..seven courses. The friendly waitress took our drinks orders, checked out any food intolerances and easily made adjustments to the dishes. Smoked duck as a first course, followed by asparagus in a lemon butter, then scallops (fantastic), next was a superb tortellini, then turbot. Next was wagyu beef, then desert of apple and I think hazelnut ice cream. Every course was simple, unfussy, but perfectly cooked and delicious. Enough time left between each course to let us relax, it was a real experience and a superb way to spend a Saturday evening. The house wine was apparently excellent (I was designated driver). And when the owner came out of the kitchen after service to speak to us, it was great to hear how passionate he was about the food and ingredients. Needless to say we will be back.

Over the years myself & my wife have visited Pietruccios on a number of occasions , we booked by phone and arrived for Lunch around 2pm , we were welcomed by Owner & chef Pinot we had a choice of tables as service had not yet started . The surroundings are very stylish with a modern feel to it . To start we had a Prosecco with peach liquor free gratis and lovely , and so was the bread with olive oil We had the menu and were offered some specials . From the north of Italy we both chose a cabbage soup with ham on the bone ( lovely and this could be a main if wished) My wife had sea bass with potatoes & tomatoes with garlic, I had Ribeye with chilli and a side of fried slice potato with rosemary & garlic (fantastic only way to say it ) Served with water & a outstanding bottle of Aglianico ( deep red fro Campania ) Pinot checked on how you were doing a very refreshing change in the restraint scene I had a small beer & a couple of espressos to complete a lovely meal . Now only opens Fri/Sat/Sun Service throughout was brisk and pleasant , toilets are immaculate. A continued breath of fresh air to the restaurant scene in Lanarkshire Well worth a visit if you enjoy quality and lovely staff and surroundings Sorry I meant to say and this lunch in total was £75.00

We wanted to visit for a long time and finally went for the pretheatre gourmet menu. The Italian principles of only using a few excellent ingredients on a plate has never been clearer to me than here. We loved every plate of food and the staff, the ambience and the knowledge of their frankly prodigious wine list (Appasimento by the glass!).Its rare to find an Italian heritage restaurant as good as this in Scotland. We will be back very soon.

Been here before at weekend but as I work Thursdays never managed to get to the themed evenings but as I was on holiday this was the perfect opportunity . It was also my sons birthday so 4 of us went along . It was a Jamaican night at 16.95 for your 3 courses . This could be a cheap night if you didn’t drink much ( not us ) . Our wine and cocktails were double the food bill ( we were celebrating ) ! . The service as always is top notch and the ambience here is so chilled you think you are in your own living room. We didn’t actually ask what dishes we were getting so opted to be surprised and they were all faultless . Still not too sure what each dish was called.however there was a prawn salad starter, a chicken main and a fruit dessert all delicious . If you get a chance pop along here on a Thursday you will love it

Before they arrived the restaurant was busy but had a lovely atmosphere. The lovely waitress apologised to us on the way out saying they don’t usually get a table like that. One of the comments made to Nicole was downright crude and very offensive. She laughed it off very professionally. Well done Nicole.

Always made very welcome. Small, intimate ilalian gem. Basic freshly made ilalian food with unbelievable taste. Not typical Italian menu like pastas and pizzas. Something really different. We always have the 7 course sharing menu, which gives you a small sample of the menu that day. The lamb and the hazelnut ice cream in particular are our favorites. It will take you about 3 hours to get through the taster menu so not a place to go for a quick bite. Really nice to know you have your table for the night and can relax and enjoy your dinner. Staff can't do enough for you.

While on a weekend visiting family in the area, we heard of this place, and on a freezing winter Saturday night called in, not very hopeful of getting a table. As it happened a table for two was available as there was a "no show" (thank you whoever you are!)From the warm welcome with a Bellini to the final complimentary drink offered the whole experience was delightful, hence my title.The menu is small, just one A4 page, but I could literally have eaten anyone of the dishes on offer. Everything is fresh and freshly cooked - we had scallops, sea bass and the dessert trio - and all delicious.There is a gourmet menu on offer but we were a little late to order. Many couples seemed to be having this and I would love to make a reservation and have it next time.This is a small restaurant, extremely cosy and welcoming.

We visited for lunch last week. The meal was excellent and very simply done. The owner was very good at describing how the food was made. We had three courses for £14.95 and each one was delicious. Will definitely return.

Small restaurant with excellent food. Will definitely return. If you prefer loads of of chips with your meals this is probably not the place for you. Not large portions but the food is well prepared, served with a smile, and very tasty. Served a plate of fresh crusty bread with oil and balsamic dip for appetiser. Starter of bruchetta was well filled with overflowing tomato topping. Main course, although not a big portion was tasty. Adequate choice on menu with most Italian favourites. Sweets are available but I normally miss those out. Coffee to finish. Altogether very good and worth another visit.

We have been wanting to eat here for some time and finally went last night for my husband's birthday with our close friends. We chose the tasting menu and were not disappointed. The food was exceptional and good value for money and the atmosphere in this gorgeous little restaurant was relaxed and chilled. We are so lucky to have a gem like this in Hamilton. I can't wait go again!

This place is very understated from the outside, but please don't let that put you off. Enter this gem of s restaurant for a truly chilled out pleasant environment with excellent service. The food is made simply but with passion the ingredients are seasonal and fresh and the results are simply superb. Pino is a master of his art, and a very pleasant personality. He takes time to speak to customers during your visit and helps make it feel specialIf you have not experienced this place, Don't delay you won't be disappointed

Went for lunch in a party of four one of us had several food intolerant issues which were quickly addressed as everything is made when you order and easy to change. Also great and friendly Service, a must for us to return.

We were greeted with complementary cocktails upon our arrival. I ordered the scallops and my friend ordered the beef carpaccio. Both were simply delicious. There was an amazing collection of wine on offer. For our main, I ordered the monkfish - one of my favourites - and I can honestly say I've never had it anywhere better than here, my friend on the other hand had ribeye perfectly done to her taste. Overall an amazing night finished off with two chocolate tarts with home made ice cream. The staff and owner/chef was welcoming from the start and throughout our night they were friendly and devoted to making our night one to remember. Will definitely be back!

Brilliant welcome from Pino ( owner ) Spent 5-10 minutes just having a chat I accept it was quiet but made us feel very welcome. At 14.95 for 3 courses I feel it was good value. Food quite simply done but taste was first class and portion size entirely reasonable. Choice of 4 items for starter and main and 3 for dessert I honestly could have eaten any of the choices. No wine ordered since it was lunch time but 2 Moretti beers were just perfect. Macchiato coffee to finish were lovely. We also had a great chat after the meal discussing different coffees -- always good to learn something new.All in all a smashing lunch for people who appreciate good food.I have read other reviews about the owner being unpleasant at times. Don't believe it -- he has the perfect temperament to run this type of business.

Pino (the chef/owner) and his staff provide an outstanding experience, warm, friendly and enthusiastic service, a superb wine list, mostly Italian ranging from well known favourites to hidden gems and brilliant food, unpretentious and fantastically executed.Eating at Pino's is a proper evening out, you will not be rushed out in 90 minutes !The "Gourmet" tasting/degustation menu is outstanding at £33 but a la carte is equally tasty and value for money.Really can't recommend it highly enough, it works just as well for a wee treat or full blown celebration, it's the type of place that if you found it on holiday you'd visit 5+ times in a fortnight !

We were late for an 8.45pm booking - an hour actually but were treated like royalty! The food is superb, a fab selection of freshly prepared food. The owner/chef Pino, and his staff, hope that is spelt correctly were lovely and spent a lot of time with us. We never felt rushed and had a lovely get together.A hidden treasure wholly deserving of this review

Not the cheapest of places for a lunch but some nice food and a bit of a different variety than a lot of the other lunch places.

Had heard good reports about this restaurant so decided to treat another couple. So, table for four, midweek for dinner in December was relatively easy to book. We all decided to have the gourmet menu. With wine and water, our bill was just over £200.This was well worth the money!! Gourmet it definitely was. The atmosphere was very welcoming and pleasant. It was great to have dinner in a small restaurant and feel valued and still have privacy. The time between courses was perfect. We have tried to book a table for a Saturday night without fail as they are normally fully booked unless you want to eat at 5pm.I think you must have to book a Saturday night well in advance. This is a great place to eat for ambience, food and service.Cant wait to get back!

After dining in this little Italian 'home from home' I felt the need to make other people aware of my experience. From the moment you enter this cosy little restaurant you feel instantly welcomed by the friendly staff. After choosing from a vast selection of fine wine we started our dining experience. The word 'outstanding' comes to mind. This is not your typical Italian restaurant you find in Hamilton, this hidden gem is like being in Italy without the weather. The atmosphere was wonderful with a great choice in background music. All in all. I have not one bad word to say, only lots of wonderful ones! This is Lanarkshire's best kept little secret! And I will most definitely be returning soon! Thanks to all who made our night so fantastic!

Almost reluctant to write a review for fear that this little gem of a restaurant will become too popular to book a table. After rave reviews, we booked a table to celebrate my dad's birthday. Pietruccio's not only lived up to the hype but excelled every expectation. Delicious food and an intimate atmosphere hosted by the wonderful Pino who we have heard so much about. It felt more like dinner with a friend. Everyone had such a lovely time and we can't imagine booking anywhere else for a celebration. We cannot wait to come back.
