Albero Italian

You'll find yourself on Lymington Road heading into the heart of Brockenhurst village, and Albero arrives without any fuss or fanfare. What you get is straightforward Italian done properly: the kind of place where they're not trying to reinvent the wheel, just make it spin really well. The kitchen knows what it's doing with pasta—handmade where it counts—and the sort of sauces that taste like someone cared enough to let them develop. It's the kind of neighbourhood restaurant locals keep coming back to, which the 733 reviews and 4.6 rating tell you everything you need to know.
