Visited for a late Bank Holiday lunch. The restaurant was busy with a mixed client base, from families, lads in their 20’s to retirees like us. Staff were very friendly and attentive. The food was freshly cooked to order, our veggie options were delicious. Other meals brought out to other diners looked good with portion sizes being generous.

Visited here today with my 10 year old son after an appointment nearby. I’ve visited before for brunch with friends, which was lovely. The staff today were very attentive, friendly and great at engaging with my son. We ordered a Parma ham and chicken pizza to share and we were delighted with what we were presented with. Delicious pizza, well cooked and more than enough for 2 - half of it was boxed and brought home to my husband and older son. We will absolutely return, thank you

Lunch with friends, luckily had a voucher. Soups were lovely but tuna salad was mostly greens, interspersed with tuna, sliced tiny tomatoes and piles of avocado. It was all piled up on plate with no thoughts of presentation. Sorry wont be back

I’ve just been on a little visit north of the border to visit my Brother and the family. My eldest niece and her partner live very close to Rosso and suggested here for lunch. We were aware it’s a first come first served basis as you can’t book , and being a party of five we were happy to have a coffee outside until a table became available , however our wait was upwards of an hour purely due to the selfish actions of other diners not swiftly vacating their table once they’d paid their bill. I appreciate you can’t ‘evict’ people but I think some sort of system needs to be in place where customers are aware it’s a quick turnover establishment as seating is limited. That said, once seated the service was excellent and the food delicious. All the staff were extremely polite and friendly and I actually felt sorry for them as I’m sure they must cringe when some customers won’t take the hint and depart in a timely fashion. Would I return ? Most definitely !

Missed breakfast at a local hotel and headed for the high street - delighted to find Rosso. Tables thoroughly cleaned between customers. Friendly and helpful staff - with more senior staff on hand to help out too. A great roll & bacon with good coffee too. Rosso “hit the spot” for me.

Pretty disgusted on a recent trip to Rosso for brunch. Several years ago I discovered that the V for Vegetarian included not Free a Range eggs but cruel caged/ ‘barn’ eggs! My friend crossed the road & bought Free Range eggs from the Co op & the chef cooked for me & my friend. I complained at the time & hoped this practice would change. However on a recent family brunch I again checked as what they are saying V for suitable for Vegetarians is still Cruel and caged hen eggs! In disbelief I ordered the Vegan alternative. Please make your feelings known on this unbelievable lie as ‘suitable for Vegetarians’ or just as a person who will only buy Free Range eggs for the sake of animal welfare. I actually don’t know anyone who buys cruel eggs. Very disappointed & won’t be back. Please put up your prices & buy Free Range eggs. Even say on your menu eggs are not suitable for anyone who has despises animal cruelty.

I love the food in Rosso. Its always busy so you are lucky to get a table, although the waitresses do their best to accommodate you. The food is just absolutely beautiful. Nice, fresh pizza and pasta. Cheese boards are lovely and plentiful. Sometimes you do have to wait quite a while for food and a few times I've been in for take away at my designated time to have to wait longer. It is worth it as I think this is a great wee place.

If I'm honest, I don't know why I've continued ordering from this place as it is becoming more and more disappointing everytime. Ordered a take out for collection this evening (Saturday 18th December 2021) at 6.40pm. I was informed by the management that it wouldn't be ready for collection until 8pm due to high demand and a busy restaurant a week before Christmas. That I understood, so my partner decided to collect at 8 from Motherwell (bearing in mind we weren't exactly 'up the road'). He left around 7.30 and home by 8.15pm or so. Food was still kind of warm - that wasn't the issue. The main concerns i had were: the ham and pineapple pizza that my partner had was burnt and if I were the management I would never have sent that out of the kitchen busy or not it's not a excuse. It was also bland, I think the pineapllenwas the only thing I could really taste. The cheese was insipid. I had the pasta amatriciana and the pasta has always been overcooked. Pasta should never come out splitting and had been overcooked. The sauce was even more bland and insipid. It was as though the cook just throwed a tin of canned tomatoes on top and dressed itup with green and red chillies. One note to the so-called chef whoever you are - you cannot cook and are NOT a trained chef. You cannot add chillies intona dish and think that's what will make it taste better - it does not. It makes it hotter! I also found a piece of chicken in my dish which should never have been there. This was more if a concern because what if someone was allergic to chicken or any other ingredient they might have added for that matter? This is totally unacceptable. If you had a group of professional staff working in your kitchen then they would know about food INTOLERANCES and ALLERGIES. There are people who have had serious health complications due to things in their food that should never have been there in the first place. This is shocking. In the end, i had a few bites of the pasta and my partner his pizza and left it. Discarded it in the bin it was totally inedible and tasteless. I was very underwhelmed yo say the least Rosso. Just not good enough. I've been in for sit down meals and take outs before and I always think you'll do better next time. It never is. I did call the management straight away and explained all the above. She was a nice lady on the phone and had offered me a free pizza and pasta next time. I ask myself why I would want to do that after the last experience. It makes no sense. I would rather have had a film refund and I had explained it was tasteless on other occasions too with no room for improvement. I didn't want to have to wrote a review like this but I'm afraid I had to because I am really fed up of how terrible food seems.to be nowadays. I am a very good cook myself and have cooked dishes like this hundreds of times over. This is NOT how you make pasta pr pizza and you have the audacity to call yourself and Italina bistro. It's actually embarrassing. For that reason I won't be back and I certainly wouldn't recommend this restaurant to my friends or family. Money and travel time wasted for sub-standard food. I think people rate this place so much is because they cannot cook very we at home themselves - anything would taste good if they can't cook. I do not recommend this place. NB please employ a 'real' chef not someone who thinks they're a dab hand in the kitchen because they certainly are not!

Thought we’d go for a nice meal been a while since been in Rosso. We ordered pollo Milanese which the pasta was not cooked still clumped together, no pasta sauce and chicken breast smashed less than a millimetre thick. I have never seen chicken bread crumb actually curl before. Sorry for a meal that cost £36 won’t be rushing back time soon.

I like this venue and the team that work there, the owner is often present, he is nice, approachable and a great host. However this mornings breakfast was just poor, the scrambled eggs were like eating a bowl of salt. They did look like they were fresh, made by a chef etc but overly seasoned to the point of being almost inedible. It wont stop me going back but they really only have one more chance and i will find somewhere else.

We ordered 6 meals for the family for takeaway. 4 of the pizzas included were look warm and undercooked. The garlic bread included was also freezing cold. For a £70.00 order to be of this standard was very disappointing from Rosso’s usual standards. The order took almost 2 hours to arrive and was a completely underwhelming experience.

We are regular visitors to Rosso it is one of our favourite places, however our visit today was miserable as we were so cold. When we asked the staff if they could close the door we were told it was a regulation due to COVID that door had to remain open for ventilation purposes. First time I have heard of this. A message to Management if that is the case you will have to invest in some heaters as we head into the Scottish autumn/winter season.

I have been to Rossi’s maybe 4 or 5 times but I’m afraid I don’t want to go back. I really enjoy the food and the staff are lovely. But it doesn’t matter where you sit in the restaurant, it is freezing cold in there. I have never taken my coat off and my latest visit I looked around a restaurant watching other diners sitting eating their meals with their coats on. It’s not an enjoyable experience to still be cold with your coat on whilst eating dinner. Shame.

We had takeaway pizza quite early on during lockdown when no restaurants / cafes were yet allowed to open properly - only for take away . I was very impressed by the set up . I called , ordered , paid over the telephone by card to minimise contact . I was given a time slot and advised to sit in my car and I would be called when to come to the front door . The server appeared with my order and placed it on one of two tables outside the door and stepped back so I could collect with no contact . It was all very professionally handled and the pizza was delicious . Win win ! Under impossible circumstances I’d give 5stars to Rosso for making the best of a bad situation and building up trust with customers ; knowing they were safe to visit and all guidelines were being adhered to meticulously . Well done guys .

Went in for lunch but extremely busy. Had to wait for table which was not a problem. Got table 10 mins wait. Not a problem. Order taken right away. Tea and coffee brought promptly but meal was at least a 20 minute wait. Not ordered anything hot, just baps, so Chief had no cooking of our meal. Not acceptable. Tea coffee cold by time meal arrived. Prices a bit more than average prices but if you get the service you don't mind. Restaurant emptied quite a bit while waiting on our meal lots of empty tables as lunch time customers had left. Still a long wait for our lunch. Recommend anyone going to ask for your hot drinks to be served with meal not before meal. Very cramped, tables very close to each other as a small place. Don't think we will have a return visit.

Me and my husband went for a sat afternoon lunch, this was our second time there and both times our visit was spoiled by the place being totally freezing. The first time was 6 months ago and now again the same problem. We were sitting beside a huge big wall radiator which was off and stone cold. Lots of people sitting with their coats on including me so will NOT be going back for a 3rd time. Such a pity as nice place and guy that served us was friendly and efficient and they are very busy so I don’t understand why they would want their customers to be cold.

I love Rosso and eat there regularly in the evening. Their pasta is delish.However I will never be back for breakfast. I ordered a full English. Very poor. The sausages were cheap, tasteless, and split in two. Very unusual as part of the enjoyment is bursting through the skin. But realised that there were so many takeaway morning rolls being ordered that this was probably why. The beans were cold, the fried egg uncooked with that horrible sticky jelly on top of the yolk - inedible. The bacon had a nice flavour

This is my second visit here, albeit rushed, but the food is good. My son ordered the pepperoni children’s pizza, at £5.95 a great buy, but still confused why we were charged for lemonade when it was apparently part of the price for the children’s menu £1, and why I wasn’t notified that pepperoni was an extra £1... so in essence the children’s menu is really more £8, along with a delicious chocolate brownie. I have no qualms paying £7.95 for what he got, a great freshly made pizza...but be honest. Please try the Sicilian sausage and prawn pasta, fantastico!!!

Ok, this was a bog standard sit down ,after being at Bothwell Dental Care, my trusted dentists. We were starving and decided as it was such a lovely day we would sit outside. I ordered the prawn and Italian sausage pasta and my son had the pepperoni pizza. The pasta was fantastic, some people think pasta is easy to make, but I disagree, it is difficult to get it right! This was spot on, the depth of flavour coating the pasta was amazing, spicy, but light, soft prawns perfectly cooked and the sausage put the weight into what I believe was cooked by a fantastic chef. I have travelled all over Italy in the last 10 years, the best I have had was in Positano, but that was clam linguine , very impressed and will be visiting again, a real gem. Well done!

I popped in for a bite last night and my experience was nice but i'm afraid nothing special.Our server advised us not to have the antipasto for 2 as the dish for 1 was sufficient. She was not wrong. It was huge! Also, it included wierd things like a haggis quesadilla (i think), onion ring deep fried and more butter than i've ever been given at a dinner table for 2.The main course, ravioli was dry in the middle (feta) and the sauce, that should have come with it, was dry and just tomato covered chicken and ham. Didn't finish it nor did i get the chance to advise my server as she didn't come back to check on us.Finally, i was let down by their wine list. Short but not sweet. Poor choices and quality which was a huge surprise as it's such an affluent area.Sorry Rosso, I cannot give you a glowing report based on last nights experience.The place looks and feels wonderful though. If I go back, I've been advised to have the pizza.

I've just visited Rosso and will definitely be back. It's the perfect spot for someone visiting on their own, informal and lively, I was able to sit with a magazine on a bar style high table whilst lots of families and couples popped in - perfect for people watching.The staff were friendly and attentive.The starter of gamberoni was pleasant, with the addition of soft garlic bread to mop up the sauce a nice touch.My main of penne salsiccia was a bit watery at first and perhaps a little bland being very tomatoey and seemed to be lacking the chilli kick, however it certainly wasn't anything to complain about for the price.I added the fudge cake to finish, which was risky as I thought it would hit my stomach like a brick. But it turned out to be very light and tasty, and probably the best course.Value was excellent, with 3 courses, coffee and soft drink only £23! (my South-East England price barometer may also not have readjusted yet!)I'll definitely be back on my next visit.

Had lunch in Rosso a few weeks ago, ordered the pate which comes with goats cheese, some toasted bread and a lovely salad. This was all good.Also ordered a coke, knowing that they have those tiny glass bottles, thought it might be better to go for draught, drink came in a very slim glass with lots of ice and a piece of lemon. This small glass costs £2.20!!! Both of us decided we needed a 2nd drink so this time we asked for no ice, which was fine. The drinks bill, for 4 soft drinks was £8.80 which in my opinion is far too expensive

attended here with my wife on 15/04/17 and ordered 2 x lasagna accompanied by garlic bread. Lasagna came cold in the middle almost to the point of being frozen. Sent it back and firstly they left the garlic bread accompaniment which we had to eat. Brought the 2 lasagna back and they were barely luke warm in the middle. Was so hungry we just ate them. Main complaint is no one asked us how they were not the waiter or the manager whom i paid the bill to. IF i SEND SOMETHING BACK COLD i EXPECT IT TO BE PIPING HOT ON RETURN.

The first night was that good, we went back and ate again on the 2nd night. The restaurant is a modern place, not too big, but sufficient space. On both nights we had 1 starter and 2 main courses, 2x soft drinks and a beer and cocktail. The cost was less than £40 which I constitute as excellent value especially considering how good the food and service was. We had the arancini which comes with a marinara sauce, this was a good starter and also a nice size. As a main course I had the Penne Amatriciana on the first night, this was good and wasn’t too spicy but it clearly had some spice to it, with plenty of bacon also added to the meal. On the second evening I went with the Penne tikka, which was very good. The meal had lots of flavour and also lots of pieces of chicken. This was probably my favourite of the 2 meals I ate whilst eating here. The servers we had were both very friendly, and excellent at their job. I would strongly recommend anyone who lives nearby to try this restaurant, as I know I will be back on my next trip to Bothwell.

Visited here for brunch and while the food was tasty, they messed up the order. My boyfriend ordered the savoury French toast. I ordered the French toast the Rosso way (sweet and was supposed to come with syrup), but I was also presented with the savoury French toast. When asked if we want anything else my boyfriend asked for brown sauce but this never appeared at all. Reasonable prices and I'll give it another chance to see if they can get these things right next time.

We were not able to book ahead for this informal cafe so 8 of us had to wait for a table.It was worth it though. Very child friendly and plenty for vegetarians.Grandson had a massive ooked breakfast (breakfast menu till 2 pm is great )Staff very helpful.A great experience if you just want a glass of wine or a coffee and a cake

Stayed in Bothwell for a week, loved the pizzas here. Simple Italian style with an emphasis on the crust and minimal high quality toppings

This is our No1 place to visit for a family dinner or even a coffee/ice-cream with the kids. Adele and her team are polite, friendly and professional. We will visit Rosso at least once a fortnight as its value for money and the kids simply won't go anywhere else, that kind of says it all.99% of the time I always order the same thing (Torre Di Pollo), give it a go when you visit and just mention to the staff that the polar bear sent you ;-) Oh, and the Irish Coffee also gets a thumbs up from me ;-)A wee Italian gem in the heart of classy Bothwell.

Great bank holiday breakfast at Rosso. We called on Monday and had a really lovely breakfast. Eggs sugo for my friend and French toast with Italian sausage for me with lovely breakfast tea. Everything was hot and freshly cooked and the sausage was delicious. Came promptly and the waiting staff were friendly and efficient. Will be back soon .

We pop in for breakfast quite often but decided to go for a later brunch. I had more lunch type dishes while my husband kept with his breakfast of choice. The breakfast of eggs, Italian sausage, bacon etc was as always lovely and the Italian bread is always delightful. My lunch was decidedly average. The soup was tasty enough but almost stone cold and had far too many potatoes and not enough vegetables. My toasted sandwich was also cold. The cheese wasn't melted and the bread was therefore soggy. It was also quite dry as the filling fell out as I lifted it up. Quite a hard thing to get wrong - soup and a sandwich. We will think twice before returning for lunch. Service as always was friendly and attentive. A very cosy setting. Hoping this was just a 'bad' afternoon in the kitchen.

First time visiting this lovely wee gem. Apparently you can't book a table but we were seated straight away. Ordered the Antipasto for 2 as it was just a quick lunch. It was very nice, a great range of meats and cheese along with some grilled veg.Quick service, small and relaxing place and will return to try out more of their food items.

We go to Rosso at least 3 times per month and we have never been disappointed you can't book a table you just turn up and wait most times it's just a few mins but it doesn't matter they make you feel so welcome . The food is alway outstanding and made fresh great atmosphere and very relaxed

I got the last available table, ordered a drink and then had to unexpectedly pick up the friend I was meeting. The staff couldn't have been nicer and kept the table for us. All our food and drink was tasty and well presented, good portion sizes - we felt full but not unpleasantly so. Nice surroundings, spotlessly clean and the overall bill felt like good value for the quality of the food and service.Two happy customers - we'll be back!

The pizza from here was one of the best tasted in Britian. The chicken was breast meat and lots of it. I asked for some chilli oil & it looks like they made it for me. Service was great so was the atmosphere, located in the High St and was very busy for a Wednesday night.Would I return = would love to.

Great atmosphere, tasty food and friendly staff. From breakfast to dinner this place is the perfect bistro. Only problem is that you can't be sure of a table as they don't take bookings and it is very popular ... have only been turned away once though.Toilets need upgrading .. please!

We were out shopping in the area and visited because we had snacked late and did not eat lunch. This meant art 15:00 we were not able to wait until dinner time. So this excellent choice, being open all day, was the place to go. We were going to share a Italian meat platter for two but the very helpful waitress explained that if we were having main courses then we should share the player for one. (This turned out to be superb advice, as the player was as tasty add it was filling) we ordered linguine with king prawns and my wife had sea bass. All the food was tremendous. The waitress was well worth her tip. It is perceived that it is a coffee house but the food wss add good as you would get anywhere.

I always like my coffee served extra hot (160). My latte served in a standard tall glass mug wasn't quite up to the usual standard so I asked could it be warmed. I'm sure there are Health and Safety regs that would suggest the server does not put the steamer arm directly into the glass! It was dumped on the table. I scalded my mouth. Is there no thermometer in this establishment. Not impressed today. By the way - the menu states you can have a toasted croissant. Mine was clearly nuked in the microwave.

My husband and I order a delivery regularly as we love the food, it can not be faulted at all, however every time we order something there is always something from our order missing? How hard is it to check the order and put it into the bag? The reason I had to put this review is because it happens to us every time we order! We can't be the only ones! It really lets this restaurant down as the food is amazing, but so disappointing having to wait for the missing items to be re delivered! Come on sort it out guys, it's not rocket science.

We love the pizzas from Rosso. They are well fired in the oven and the dough is great. They also do nice Penne Arrabiata and the garlic bread is huge! They do a great kids deal including drink and ice cream. The delivery is also quick - never had a problem with it. It has a nice selection of drinks.

We enjoyed a lovely evening of wine tasting and food pairing recently. The wine tasting was undertaken by a knowledgable & friendly gent from a wine supplier to the restaurant & catering business based in Glasgow.After a welcoming glass of prosecco, we enjoyed sampling two whites and two reds from France and Chile. The food pairings were lovely too with spicy soup and a delicious goats cheese filo parcel choice of starters.The mains consisted of stuffed sun blushed Chicken wrapped in bacon, Salmon in a lime and spice coating both served on a bed of vegetable and jus or a vegetarian pasta option.The dessert options were either ice cream or a lovely biscuit style cake served with crime anglaise.A fairly basic but fresh, well cooked and tasty menu to accompany the wines!The service was very friendly and courteous too.A lovely ambience at this monthly wine tasting & food pairing event.Overall, a lovely evening and terrific value too. Well done Rosso.

The service ay Rosso is good when in store however service on delivery is appaling. Waited 1h 10m on a pizza which on arrival was luke warm at best and didnt even have the correct toppings. On complaining, they sent tye correct pizza which took 45 mins to arrive with no explanation or apology. There are definatley better places nearby.

Giovanni's Italian Kitchenlocation-icon67 Cadzow Street HamiltonItalian

Myself and my partner received a voucher for Giovanni's and as we had never been, we were not sure what to expect and we were over the moon with the outcome. We were warmly greeted by Morgan, who was just an absolute sweetheart, she was so cheery and nothing was too much trouble. The decor is very modern and spotless! the loos are also spotless, think Mrs Hinch had been round :) We did wonder why it was so quiet as for such a large place there were only a few tables taken but this is due to a recent change in owners. I think maybe the past owners hadn't run it as well based on old reviews but be assured this is a compete thing of the past as everything was just perfect. To start I had the breaded cheese to start which had a lovely tomato dipping sauce, my partner had meatballs which he said were very tasty. for Main I had Beef shin ragu tagliatelle and my partner had salami and pepperoni pizza, we also ordered chips and garlic bread at side (we don't go out much so went a bit carb crazy lol) The Pasta was cooked to perfection with rich ragu sauce and such tender meat throughout, the pizza was fired and was huge! The chips were a very generous portion, as was the garlic bread - we got 5 pieces as the one side! You have to try this! its so buttery and so tasty! Although we ate our body weight in carbs we left very happy and can't wait to visit again. I think they do special offers on a Tues and Thurs but maybe best check this, they also do boozy brunches and theme nights. Morgan and the chefs made this a lovely night out, thank you all x

Ciao Bellalocation-iconStonelaw RoadItalian

Well worth the money. Mussels were plentiful and delicious. Carbonara creamy and flavoursome. Lovely surrounding and fabulous friendly staff. Especially the young man working Saturday 29th Feb. Didn’t catch his name but was attentive and charming. Big plus point for the toilets which were pristine. Wine was tasty and even though it was house wine it wasn’t cheap and nasty. Table of 3 with 3 starters, 3 mains and 2 glasses of wine each. £92! Brilliant value! Also looked family friendly which will keep in mind when looking at a family lunch venue.
