surprised Scots diners after popping into a North Lanarkshire restaurant before tonight's Celtic game.
The singing legend enjoyed some grub at Da Claudio in Mothwerwell on Wednesday night.
Celtic fan, Rod, posed up for a photo with a member of staff which was shared on social media.
A post on Da Caludio's Facebook page read: "It's not every day Rod Stewart drops in for a meal!
"Yes, it's actually him!"
Rod, 75, sported a white shirt, dark tie, beige coat and trousers with a dark brown cross-body bag for his evening out on the town.
Locals and Celtic fans were sent into meltdown at the photo.
Many speculated that the crooner dined at the Italian food joint before watching the Hoops take on Motherwell at Fir Park.
In less than one hour, the snap was shared almost 200 times and amassed over 350 comments.
Corinne McArdle wrote: 'Wow, this is great!
"Good choice, Rod."
Maureen Phillips added: "A meal before the game.
"Well in, Rod."
Jamie Boyd commented: "Even celebrities know a good restaurant when they see one."
The Parkhead side won 4-0 over Motherwell in the Scottish Premiership clash.
A court case involving Rod is due to call in a Florida court in just three days time.
Last month how Rod pleaded not guilty to punching a security guard in Florida.
Rod and his son Sean Stewart, 39, are accused of attacking Jessie Dixon after he refused to allow them into a private party.
The alleged altercation took place around 11pm on New Year's Eve at the palatial The Breakers hotel in Palm Beach.
On January 21 father and son were not present in court when their plea was entered and waived their right to be present during future court hearings.
They also indicated they plan to be absent from the courtroom unless the judge demands that they appear.
The next court date is set for February 8.
