Alberto's Kitchen — Restaurant in Staffordshire Moorlands

Don’t let the outside of this little gem fool you. I waited three years to try this wonderful place and when I finally did, I was sad I waited so long. While the menu isn’t large, it shouldn’t have to be of the food is done right. The starters I’ve tried so far were all delicious, the marinara sauce that the arancini is served is absolutely incredible- dare I say, the best I’ve had outside Italy. The pastas that I’ve tried are also really great. Now let’s talk about the pizza… Absolutely fantastic. Bar none, the best pizza in Leek. Tons of options. Made to order. They even have a 20 inch option - which you have to call ahead for and pick up as they don’t have a delivery bag big enough and because of the sheer size it takes up an entire pizza oven. We ordered a 20 inch one evening and happily picked it up and, I can say, bigger is in fact better!

Overall, we enjoyed our night but will not be returning. Also, booked a table but the staff were not expecting us, suggesting they do not check their diary and it took a minute for the server to seat us despite it being very quiet, just lacked preparation for the evening and a general lack of knowledge of his...

AVOID. AWFUL STAFF! I was sat enjoying my coffee in my favourite coffee shop and in came the manageress of Alberto’s restaurant, full on yelling at the baristas that her coffee wasn’t made correctly. It was so embarrassing to see and scared some other peoples children to the point that they cried. This absolutely disgusting behaviour, I understand she may not of liked how her coffee was made but there was no excuse for the way she reacted. If I was the owner of Alberto’s I would be so embarrassed to have this woman working for me and would consider having a word with her as I certainly won’t be giving someone like that my time or...
