About Wildwood Maidstone Italian Restaurant | Pizza, Pasta & Grill
Wildwood Maidstone Italian Restaurant on Earl Street is a modern European restaurant serving Italian cooking across pizza, pasta and grill dishes in a lively, decor-led dining room. The menu stretches from truffle mushroom arancini and oven-baked chicken and mushroom rigatoni to peri peri half chicken, with Eton Mess among the desserts. Service runs on a walk-in basis, and the room takes large tables for groups. Counter ordering and table service cover the everyday flow of meals through lunch and dinner. The kitchen pairs its Italian range with grill plates, keeping the format broad enough for mixed parties sharing starters, mains and sides across the table.

“Two mum's and two tired little kiddos from Thanet. We had a long, but fun day out at the Maidstone Leisure centre and needed some sustenance after. We googled options near us for a proper vegan meal and found Wildwood. We were met and seated within seconds by Maia. So friendly and welcoming! We had a great experience even though we had tired, grumpy, hangry, overstimulated little kids. I spilled my drink and it was cleaned and sorted within minutes”

“Was on a road trip with my brother in Kent and popped over to Maidstone to catch up with an old school friend from the late 60’s. What a lovely place to share a meal and have a chat. I had the peri peri half chicken and my friend had the bolognaise, great portions and very tasty. I had to finish off with an Eaton Mess highly recommend it. I’ve let myself down a bit as I haven’t taken many photos but we had a great time and the staff were very friendly and helpful. The food was great.”

“Had an amazing meal with friends. Everyone was friendly and warm. Nothing was too much trouble even though we were a large table. Food was hot and delicious. Will be going again. Thank you for a wonderful night.”

“Came here after recommendation from a family friend. Was disappointed with the food and service. Not sure if it because there was only one chef working and the service was slow because of this. However, no apologies or gratitude was provided by the staff members due to how long everything was taking. We ordered truffle mushroom arancini, half peri chicken and oven baked chicken and mushroom rigatoni. Food was average. Wouldn’t recommend or come again.”
