Wildwood Kitchen in Liverpool

We've eaten there three times in the last week. The staff were very friendly and attentive. The food (pizza and pasta dishes) were very good. A special plus is the play area for children. We can absolutely recommend the restaurant and will definitely visit again on our next visit to Liverpool.

Refreshing open space with nice atmosphere and staff service. English full breakfast is gorgeous, must have in UK

Overpriced tasteless food. Would not go again. The stars are for the service only. The staff were friendly and the drinks came quickly.

I recently stopped by for a date night and I was really impressed! The food was fantastic, especially the salmon & smoked haddock fish cake and chicken piccata Milanese – both tasted amazing and looked great too. The atmosphere was lovely, and the place was spotless, which made for a nice relaxing dinner. The only hiccup was a slightly longer wait for our mains, but the friendly service more than made up for it. I’ll definitely be back for more!

We went to celebrate our son's 30th birthday. 17 family members, had a great evening, staff were extremely patient and helpful. We love going and will no doubt return very soon

Nice atmosphere. The seafood linguine was excellent

The waiter brought me a spilled coffee, he didn't even bother to clean the cup/plate. Also, a candle was lit at each table, excepting at our table. Moreover, we ordered a tomato soup, but they didn’t mention it would be very spicy. We needed a lot of bread to be able to it, and guess what: they put us pay for all the extra bread. Bonus: the 10% tip was already included in the bill, no question before. Horrible experience!

Website for collection orders not entirely functional as the tracking is faulty. Food not worth it in my opinion but service was great both in person and over the telephone.

Had an amazing visit here for the first time with my partner. Food was exceptional as we're the staff. Definitely recommend

A wonderful ambience to the restaurant, with a friendly greeting and option to sit anywhere (I was the first customer of the day). The food, service and wine were, as always, second to none. No wonder I keep returning: this really is an excellent place to eat and drink and only a few yards from Central Station in the heart of the city.

Stake wasn’t cooked as l as it to be cooked

Excellent all round. A wonderful gluten free selection for which a million thanks!

The place was lovely and the staff friendly but the food experience wasn't great, and I'm no food snob myself. I ordered pasta from the "light" menu, a smaller portion that comes with a side salad. Well they still brought a full pasta portion, which I didn't want but ok whatever. My issue was with salad that was completely undressed and unseasoned. Literally just chopped lettuce with a couple of tomatoes in a bowl. I asked for some dressing, anything, like some oil and lemon or vinegar, but only got a bit of oil. So now I had lettuce with some oil and no other seasoning. Got forbid a restaurant has heard of a simple vinaigrette or dressing. I've seen some unloved vegetables in the UK but this was really sad to eat. Pasta was ok at best. We had a lovely time regardless but I won't be rushing back there to eat.

Popped in for late lunch before heading back to Yorkshire. Warmly welcomed by our server (i neglected to get her name) professional and very informative. She was from Skipton. We had 2 course set menu, I had the Tomato and Pepper soup, my partner had Pate. Both really good. We both had Lasagne again excellent. All staff friendly and courteous. If we venture to Liverpool again will definitely return here.

Small on the outside but huge once you get in. My grandchildren loved the playroom on a previous visit. Good, fresh food at average prices and a good selection. Mainly Italian food on offer and a children's menu

We came for a day out and decided to get something to eat before our journey back home. We didn't wait long which was good. We had chicken & mushroom penne. It was ok but it was dry, not much chicken in it and barely any creamy sauce in the dish. Disappointed really. Another person had spaghetti Bolognese and was average again. Drinks took ages to arrive on our table. The meals we paid for weren't worth that.

Excellent service and the availability of a table without having to book was much welcomed. The service from the staff working there was fantastic and the food also was excellent. Would highly recommend

Had a lovely time at Wildwood the staff were lovely and very professional and the food was excellent thankyou!

Excellent, tasty food delivered quickly to table!

Staff were friendly but service was slow, not enough staff on.

Staff SO friendly, good delicious and restaurant very nicely decorated.

Had a good range of gluten free options and loved the lighter option of having salad with the pasta. The cocktails were delicious and good value. The staff were friendly and efficient too.

It was absolutely delicious, we had takeaway and were absolutely surprised, the meals were still warm and as already said, very delicious!

Although a little noisy, we had a most enjoyable meal, prepared and served to perfection.

Had a fantastic meal today with my friends....lasagne was really tasty and the lemon pudding was scrummy! Lovely waitress who was extremely helpful with recommendations and didn't hurry us. Will definitely go back!

Fairly generic inauthentic Italian offering at a higher than expected price

We really enjoyed our food. Staff were very friendly and helpful. We started with a nice breakfast and went back for a diner later that day. I recommend tuna steak. Next time we are in Liverpool we will go back.

None of the offers on the window were given to us, no 20%off for NHS and certainly my children didn't eat for £1 and then 2 courses for 13:95, but failed to put a burger on this offer instead we paid full price for a burger, felt totally ripped off in Liverpool, wouldn't use this company again

Nice restaurant/pub in the centre of Liverpool. Friendly staff,good prices,I had a very good cheesy garlic bread with caramelised onions and nice mixed olives. Nice atmosphere

This is definitely a great place to visit and well worth your time, fantastic pleasant place with friendly staff and excellent service, as well as an amazing atmosphere, highly recommended XXXXXX

The staff is friendly and the atmosphere of the restaurant is nice, but the food is very bad and without taste or flavour

Have eaten here 2 days in a row, been very satisfied with lovely food and good service🤗🤩 Plus they have their own children's menu and play room for the children😀

Great place to eat . Lovely surrounds and in a central location.

Great restaurant and bar in heart of Liverpool. The staff were friendly and helpful food was great. The restaurant have 2 course or 3 course meal offer Family friendly place with play area for kids 🥰

Went here with my girlfriend for the first time a few months ago, after walking past several times and wanting to try, and it's quickly become one of our favourite spots. Staff are always friendly and helpful, service is quick with food and drink coming out very promptly. The atmosphere is lovely, especially when it's quieter, and the restaurant is very nicely decorated. The food is absolutely brilliant; I've had the pizza Margherita, the Bolognese and the lasagne and all were impressive. Portion sizes are perfect, and they always taste great. Good dessert options too. Price is very good, surprisingly student-friendly for the experience you get. The lunch menu is particularly good (two courses for £14 and a discount on drinks) and is our go-to when we eat here. Overall, I'd recommend Wildwood Liverpool to anybody looking for tasty food and friendly staff without going over your budget - excited to try the Primavera pizza next time!

Just walked out ,sitting for 25 minutes after we ordered and still not even our drinks.

Enjoyed the primavera risotto and the seafood risotto. Food was good, enjoyed our cocktail.

Our services Rach was amazing. We came on a busy Saturday night and we understood she had a very busy section. She still managed to be so attentive and lovely to me and my mum. I’m a restaurant manager and would happily rob her from wildwood if I could. She’s amazing!!!

Lovely place and excellent friendly staff. Little disappointed this time, ordered fishcakes and got 2 small ones with a mound of lettuce, so not worth the money at all. Tasted nice though and enjoyed the friendly atmosphere

Nice, bright restaurant in the center of Liverpool. The place is cozy, we were served in a short time, and the food was correct. We had spaghetti and grilled tuna and everything was great. If you don't want snacks or sandwiches, you can try this restaurant.

Charcoal delivered directly to your door. How careless does the kitchen have to be, to send this out?

It's used to be great here. It's just sad as this is our favourite goto place in town. The bolognese was the worst. It doesn't have a flavour and the pasta doesn't have good texture. The buttermilk chicken burger is ice cold. The chips are rock solid. Why didn't we call the attention of the servers you may ask? Because the tables beside us already sent their food back and we just felt bad doing it too. I've never made a bad review in my life except today.

Very delicious pizzas and very friendly staff.

Recommend the Philly Steak sandwhich was so yummy 😋

Following an overnight stay in Liverpool, we enjoyed a fab breakfast here…AND we were the first ever breakfast customers! Eggs Royale, sides of halloumi and hash browns were spot on, washed down with a couple of lattes each. Service was great and server Liv was exceptional, taking time to chat with us which really made the perfect ending to a great night away. Thank you ☺️

I am so very disappointed. Me and my husband whent on Saturday. The food as gone right down. And when we ask for are bill there was 11 service charge.we did ask them to remove .we always tip We have never had this before in this restaurant. And we have been meny time before .sorry yo say we won't be coming back .such a shame. Has it use to be realy good .

Cool little Italian style restaurant with pasta and pizza options. Has colouring books for kids. Wasn’t too busy, but had a good atmosphere.

Lovely evening out with friends made even better by the wonderful staff 😀

Very helpful staff. Artisan Pizza is wonderful but very big!

Had an excellent meal here for 5. Caters for children too with an indoor play area.

A picture says a thousand words. Minute steak (order was medium rare) which came well done after almost 1.5hour of wait. Was seat at 1:05pm and food only came 2:20pm despite on asking numerous occasions. Severely understaffed in the dining area whilst chefs inside, I don’t know what were they doing inside. Steak was more well done than a McD cheeseburger patty. Soggy calamari, burger was meh. One would expect the food to be awesome after a lengthy wait. Wouldn’t recommend. Many dining options around the area.

Arrived and was seated, however, no one came over to us for over 10 minutes to order drinks. Food arrived cold and was not enjoyable as we watched it sit on the side for atleast 10 minutes going cold. The bell was ring twice from the kitchen and all waiters ignored and continued setting tables

Was pleasantly surprised by how nice it was in Wildwood Liverpool. The staff were lovely, the food was delicious and my latte after the meal was perfect.

Pizza that looks like cardboard with frozen buffalo mozzarella on top.. probably pre-cooked.. a bottled poretti for 7 euros.. and a watered down coffee of about half a liter.. for a change of 35 euros.. place for tourists

Food was cold and you can't eat cold pizza, the driver was very nice nothing to do with driver 🙏

Were here for an early pre-theatre dinner. It was mid-week and not so busy at that time. The restaurant hsa amodern feel, light, airy, and with a good ambience. The menu is essentially Italian, but with some other dishes included (eg burgers and steaks). Our waiter was very attentive and friendly. Food was good ... noy amazing ... but perferctly good, and we thought the prices were very reasonable. Great value

I swear to God, don't worry about it, so my love will bring you into trouble 🙂

Very disappointed, ordered a chicken burger and fries, cost £18 and a chicken mayo from McDonalds would have been better, tiny burger in a small bun which was Luke warm and small portions of fries, would not recommend as plenty of takeaways near by with better food for a third of the price, have been here before and it was fine, sad to see how it’s gone down

The food was excellent quality and served promptly. Disabled Access was good and all the staff were polite and helpful. The dining area has a high ceiling and there is lots of light making for a pleasant atmosphere. Perhaps a little more expensive than some other restaurants nearby but the quality is very good and worth paying for. Overall an ideal place to eat. I would recommend it.

It’s our second night in a row to have dinner at the Wildwood in Center of Liverpool. Tonight the service was super , the food is amazing. We had a visit by Reece ( excuse the spelling) who welcomed us with another amazing warmth and sensitive. Our waiters Bailey & Lewis were very knowledgeable and suggested wonderful choices that really teased our taste buds deliciously. Thank you again for the wonderful experience a big thank you to the chefs and entire staff.

What an amazing restaurant. Our waitress Lilly was courteous and very attentive. Reiss was very inviting and welcoming. The food choice is very appealing. The pizza was out of this world. Everything was just right that we decided to return back the following evening for dinner. Excellent value for money…

So great to have the play area inside, great kids menu and we got a seat near the play area. Nice to have somewhere suitable for kids and a nice place for adults to eat too.Kids get crayons, blocks, cars and Lego to play with at the table too! Good tasty and good service, I would come again! They could make even more child friendly by not putting steak knives on the table and providing kids drinks in cartons or cups with lids as they came in a cup which spilt easily

Absolutely beautiful food with incredible service. Thank you Wildwood! And a mention to the manager Liv who was very welcoming :) Will be back soon!

A perfect place to eat and drink with the family. This place has a great selection of food and drink and even better service! The staff were welcoming and so friendly. The venue was beautiful and I can’t wait to come back again soon!

Lovely find whilst out shopping. What a beautiful restaurant with lovely staff. Reece was an amazing host and even recommended meals to try on out return.

Great evening. Lovely food friendly service

2 hours for a 2 course meal, not ideal with young children. A great team let down by one poor waitress. Food was OK, the children enjoyed the pizza and burger.

Fantastic customer service, friendly welcoming staff. Fast service and food was amazing.

Avoid this place at all costs if you want to avoid food poisoning! My friend got food poisoning after eating the beef burger and the cheese on my pizza was stale. We were also charged a forced service fee which we were not notified of earlier by the waiter. The attitude of the waiter did not make things any better.

Really nice place very bust, great service

Food was 2 hours late. When it eventually arrived it was not only ice cold but also drowned in pepper which made it inedible. So disappointed as Ive had the same dish in the restaurant and it was amazing. Might as well have thrown my money in the bin as thats where the food went

Fabulous place to eat, staff are excellent as is the food , they make you feel important we go regularly and good value for money as well ❤️‍🩹

Lunch very well served, I almost couldn't finish eating, cheap price with starter and main course or main course and dessert, perfect service.

Staying for an engagement, Sunday we went to a great restaurant in the center of Liverpool! My mother and I ate well there, my mother a good lasagna and I a good Pizza Margherita. I had a mojito cocktail it was so good

Food was 30 minutes lates - unsure if this is due to restaurant or delivery cyclist. Delivery cyclist did not update their tracking status and we were not able to wait for them at the doors. Delivery cyclist also did not update tracking after delivery.

Lovely place, very accommodating with a family member needing a quieter atmosphere. The food was hot, well prepared and nicely served. I love the quirky decor. Will definitely return and try others in different places.

Service was friendly, quick and attentive. Environment clean and food tasty! Really positive experience would absolutely recommend visiting here for a meal or a coffee. The setting is light airy and modern and the staff couldn’t be nicer!

A very nice place to have dinner in Liverpool centre. All I order just show on the photo: seafood linguine, baked aubergine, tiramisu and apple juice. Seafood Linguine has a lot of mussels, squid rings and shrimp, baked aubergine soft and juicy, apple juice tastes very fresh. The only drawback is that the tiramisu like a semi-finished product bought from supermarkets. However, this restaurant still worth to visit. It is worth mentioning that the service in this restaurant is very fast, it only took 45 minutes from the time I sat down to the time I finished my meal and left. Service charge in this restaurant is 20%.

Food was cold and not nice. Don’t bother

We went here Sat 27th after being let down by a restaurant we had been double-booked with. Being a super busy Saturday and pay day weekend, we couldn't find ANYWHERE to eat and quickly were giving up however, we popped in to see if there was any space for us. We spoke to a really lovely and understanding staff member who I assume was the manager. She kindly managed to get us seated after a group booking didn't show up. We had a lovely meal and cocktails so our date night was saved! All of the staff we spoke to were great and really friendly - the food was lovely as well! Couldn't fault at all. Thank you so much :)

We were lucky to get a table for 2 on a Saturday evening, as we hadn't booked. Seated at a lovely table, plenty of room. Lovely atmosphere. The waiter was very friendly. I had penne arrabiata with chicken. It was absolutely gorgeous, the sauce was probably the nicest I've ever had. So much so, I pinched the crust from my friend's pizza to mop up the sauce. Sadly couldn't get in this week, as it was fully booked. I know next time to book!! Will definitely visit again.

Dry food, takes ages for someones attention and to pay bill. Wont be back.

Great service by our server Lewis, food OK. Nice atmosphere. Would visit again.

Great place,staff lovely, menu offering Mediterranean food ,with vegetarian options

lovely service, atmosphere and food. thankyou!

Having spent nearly £800 as a birthday party group we were told it was last orders at 9pm then later around 1015pm or so one of the staff told us to say our ‘goodnights’ OUTSIDE!! During our visit there were only a few other tables occupied! Had we known how fast they wanted to get rid of us they wouldn’t have nearly £100 TIP!

came for dinner on a quiet Wednesday evening, starters which was garlic bread was lovely and arrived quickly. Mains took a little while to arrive, my partners arrived wrong so was changed but then took even longer. The side of potatoes came about 5 minutes after the mains and were just burnt. Peri peri pasta was tasteless. Carbonara was okay but nothing special. Our server was the best part about here!

I very much enjoyed my chicken Romana😋. It was great having a little play area so that kids can enjoy it too without disturbing adults. The staff were friendly and helpful.

Lovely food very friendly staff and an amazing atmosphere we really enjoyed everything here

Before a night at the theatre, my partner and I decided to grab some food. We walked in to Wildwood, without a reservation, and were seated immediately. The place wasn’t packed, nor was it empty. The atmosphere was pleasant and not too noisy. There was plenty of space between the tables which allowed breathing room - you couldn’t hear neighbouring conversations. The staff were lovely and courteous. We were checked on several times throughout our meal without it being overbearing or interfering. Our order: 2x sauv blanc wine 250ml (£9.40/250ml) 1x seafood linguine (£15.95) 1x chicken & chorizo risotto (£15.15) Unfortunately, we were served our wine in dirty glasses. When I say dirty, I mean they had stains on and had not been wiped/dried properly. I always feel the mark of a good restaurant is how clean their glasses are. Needless to say, a quick wipe over the rim made it palatable. The wine itself was lovely and dry, very easy to drink, and complimented our meals perfectly. My partner described the Seafood linguine. The whole prawn was easy to take apart, as were the mussels. I noted there was no water bowl to clean his fingers after this; a small detail but something that he would have benefitted from. This is his favourite dish - he orders it wherever we go so comparatively it held up. He would order it again without hesitation. I had the Chicken and chorizo risotto. It was initially overpowering with pepper, but as I settled into the dish, I loved the heat of it. I was disappointed that the chorizo was sliced from a packet, rather than small, fresh chunks cooked in the risotto. It would have added flavour, although maybe it would have left the dish greasy? We know how chorizo can be when cooked! The chicken:rice ratio was great - they definitely didn’t skimp on this. The pancetta was crispy and not cooked through the rice as I initially thought it would be. Again, cubes of pancetta instead of out the packet would have added flavour. There were edamame beans in the dish too which I didn’t care for. They didn’t add texture or taste - they were almost irrelevant. I’d have preferred a roasted pine nut. Simple, elegant, tasty, textured… but hey. I’m just an Italian with an unhealthy obsession for risotto and food in general. The risotto itself was cooked well. The portion size was good for both dishes. We didn’t need a sweet, and were full without being uncomfortable. I would return here because I believe I chose the wrong dish for myself. If I’d have ordered the carbonara like I originally thought to, I think I would have enjoyed it more. I wanted to try something different - famous last words!

This was our first time in Wildwood and we were really impressed with the food and the service. The only negative was the loud music being played over the speaker system. A bit of background music would have been better.

In Liverpool overnight for a show and booked here as on route between hotel and theatre but turned out to be an excellent choice. All the staff were very friendly and helpful despite been busy and the food was excellent and good value. Will definitely return if ever back in Liverpool

Ate here a few times, but tonight we were very disappointed - food mediocre, can't say service was slow, more that the staff just forgot us , can't blame busy restaurant as it was half full . . . Left very deflated.

Very good Italian restaurant. Top service and very generous and good pizzas.

Had the best experience ever. Will be definitely going back. The food was lovely but it wasn't about the food, it was the staff, the team. Emma was fantastic! We had about 16 pre orders and when we arrived, everything just flowed perfect, seating, everything. Every staff member in there 2as fantastic but hats off to Emma running the show! It's a 10/10 for me for food and experience. Must go

Turned up without booking was seated very quickly. Service was very polite and the food was lovely. Very chilled atmosphere.

Food was okay but service was extremely slow - nearly 2 hours until we had our mains. Drinks were consistently forgotten and then duplicates turned up over an hour later. The lasagna was very soupy and quite expensive for the portion size. Although the cocktails were nice ...when they eventually arrived!

Bravo to our Team of servers Reece (or Reese) Zach (various spellings) and Izzy née Isobel for their *exemplary service with a smile

Pre booked a meal for 16 people for a birthday meal, service from start to finish was awful. W Was all sat near the door at front of restaurant where it was absolutely freezing, we all had to sit with our coats on for the entire time we was there. Waited half an hour for someone to come and take our order for drinks, we had one drink in an hour and half as no one came back to us, we had to go looking for staff to ask for another drink. Are food was pre booked a week before for 7:30, got our food at 9:15, although the food was nice when it did eventually arrive. So all in all a really bad service, wouldn’t recommend!
