Albero Italian

My wife and I ate at Albero on our first night in Brockenhurst. The restaurant has a nice atmosphere and we both loved our pasta dishes - I had the carbonara while my wife ordered the bolognese. We shared the porchetta to start and the cheesecake for dessert, both of which were nice but not as good as the mains. We waited about ten minutes to have our order taken at the start of the meal, and then the starters and mains were served a little too quickly for our liking, although service on the whole was very friendly. We’d happily eat here again despite a few issues.

We were visiting the area for the night nearby. My other half and I were so impressed with this little gem of a place. The food was genuinely out of this world. We had puttenesca pasta, Sea bream and king prawn risotto - it was so lovely. Reasonably priced. Good service and food cooked practically in front of you, we will 100 percent visit again.

Great find. From the website the food looked great so when we drive past one night we figured we'd give it a try. Lovely setting, indoor and outdoor tables, small car park out the back for customers but it's opposite the train station too so plenty of other parking. Food was incredible, really fresh authentic Italian from a team from previous Michelin restaurants in Italy. Very friendly accommodating staff, and a great view of the food prep area (for Pizza etc) from the restaurant. It was just my wife and I this time but we'd booked another table for later in the week for the whole family as we were so impressed. Looking forward to taking the kids. Update: Went back here later the week after our first visit, this time with kids too. 5 star rating stands firm. Food was brilliant again, service good, kids happy. Felt very welcome and recognised by the staff when we entered which was a nice touch.

Great little Italian restaurant in the new forest. We stayed in Beaulieu for the weekend and wanted a takeaway pizza after a long drive. The pizza was lovely and the staff were so friendly. The next evening we dined in and had a lovely meal. Seriously, the best tiramisu I've eaten (second only to my mum or nonnas). Really lovely night out - great vibe, atmosphere and decor generally
