The highly anticipated new Piccolino Grande restaurant opens in Wilmslow next month, bringing with it an exclusive menu unique to the new restaurant and brand-new concept of authentic Italian hospitality which marks a new era for the much-loved Piccolino brand.
Opening on 21st November, guests can indulge themselves in the grandeur of Piccolino’s most elegant dining experience to date with no-expense spared Italian chic interiors and proper Italian hospitality, done the old school way, alongside extraordinary table-side culinary immersion.
Part of Individual Restaurant Group, Piccolino has invested over £2m in the transformation of the restaurant on Swan Street, which seats up to 220 guests in its elegant main restaurant, luxurious bar area, and winterised Tuscan terrace.
Piccolino has long been adored for its divine Italian cooking, taking diners on a journey through the flavours and traditions of Italy. The newest, but most anticipated opening yet, promises the same authentic Italian experience and welcoming Italian hospitality but with an impressive evolution for the Piccolino brand in its grandest location.
The exclusive menu is designed specifically for Wilmslow to give every guest an unforgettable exploration in flavour and theatre. Diners will be immersed in the creation of dishes at their table, with the freshest seafood prepared and filleted table-side, the finest-quality Tuscan steaks expertly sourced from Italy, hand-made fresh pasta dishes completed to diner’s tastes in parmesan wheels and the perfect Neapolitan pizza cooked in a spectacular brass clad pizza oven.
Diners at the new restaurant will be privy to the finest steak, cooked the way it should be, as the restaurant showcases a market leading grill technology favoured by the best US steakhouses. The innovative technology allows its chefs to cook every steak to the perfect consistency, tailored to each diner’s personal preference.
Beef will be prepared in Piccolino’s own butchery and specially selected from the most reputable producers in Italy, Argentina and the British Isles. As well as signature steaks, diners can indulge in Italian delicacies, including Biscetta Alla Fiorentina, using Fassona Piedmontese beef sourced direct from the Tuscan hills of Northern Italy; the highlight of Piccolino’s latest autumn/winter collection, and a staple at the new Wilmslow location.
With the Wilmslow opening vowed to be the restaurant group’s most exuberant launch yet, diners can expect no-expense-spared Italian chic from glamorous gold marble and Italian terrazzo floor tiles to statement wallpaper and a stunning open timber ceiling raft bursting with foliage.
Every last detail, including the enticing weekend and evening entertainment, has been thoughtfully curated to ensure the new restaurant is the most sought-after location in the area.
The exclusive new wine list specially designed for Wilmslow Piccolino Grande, represents a journey through the Italian regions, with grapes specifically chosen for their quality and diversity; promising a unique experience within every bottle.
Andrew Garton, CEO at Individual Restaurants; adds: “We’re proud to announce that the newest edition to the Piccolino family is opening in Wilmslow next month. Our passion for provenance and Italy’s diverse cuisine is the heart and soul of Piccolino and our commitment to sourcing the best quality ingredients from the finest producers has taken us to every region of Italy.
