About Don Alberto's
Don Alberto's is an Italian restaurant on Unit 4 in Leigh, taking walk-ins rather than reservations. The kitchen turns out carbonara alongside a starter of garlic, tomato, and pesto, with three courses offered as a set option. An early bird menu runs Tuesday to Friday between 5 and 6pm, also structured as three courses. House red wine is poured by the glass or bottle to accompany the food. Diners can eat at the outdoor seating area when the weather allows, alongside the main dining room. The format suits both a quick early dinner and a longer three course meal later in the evening.

Customer Review Summary
The carbonara draws particular praise, described alongside a starter of garlic, tomato and pesto as "absolutely perfect," while the Early Bird Menu, three courses for £26.85 with a bottle of house red, comes up as a value favorite despite one diner finding the wine pricier than expected. Portion sizes are repeatedly called generous and fairly priced, and staff are consistently described as welcoming, attentive and unrushed, holding up even for a party of 11 celebrating a 70th birthday. The atmosphere reads as warm and bustling. Minor gripes surface individually rather than as a pattern: one reviewer found the menu overwhelming and vegetarian choices limited, another wished the outdoor seating area had more upkeep, and one noted the dining room was dimly lit, making the menu hard to read. Several reviewers explicitly say they would return, with one recommending it "to anyone.

“Our first time here and we were not disappointed. Lovely food, good atmosphere, nice decor and fantastic service. It's just a shame about the outdoor seating area, with a bit of TLC it could be a lovely area to sit in on a sunny day.”
