Ristorante Barolo

Head down to Wimborne Road and you'll find yourself in a proper neighbourhood Italian—the kind where they've clearly thought about what they're doing. It's unpretentious stuff: pastas made with care, sauces that taste like someone actually spent time on them, and an wine list that knows what it's doing without being a show-off about it. The room itself feels lived-in and welcoming rather than trying too hard, which is exactly what you want when you're after genuine Italian food that won't cost you a fortune.
