Top 5 Italian Restaurant in Kent

75 High St, Tenterden TN30 6BB, United Kingdom

“Love, love, love this restaurant! I've been here a few times, and it never fails to impress me. The staff are very friendly and polite and not 'overly' attentive, which is great. The food is amazing, and every dish I've tried has been delicious. They offer a lovely selection of decent wines and cocktails. I'll continue to eat here with different friends as everyone I've taken here has equally enjoyed this restaurant. The fillet steak is divine and cooked to perfection as all the dishes are.”

“I recently had the pleasure of dining at Posillipo in Canterbury and it was a delightful experience. The restaurant offers authentic Italian cuisine, accompanied by warm and friendly service. Located in the scenic eastern region of England, it's a true gem for those seeking a taste of Italy. From the moment I walked in, the Italian waitstaff welcomed me with their characteristic warmth, making the dining experience feel truly authentic. The menu showcases Italian culinary excellence, with a wide variety of dishes to suit all preferences, including vegetarian options. The starters were a perfect introduction to the meal, bursting with flavor and beautifully presented. The seafood risotto and linguine were the highlights for me. Both dishes were cooked to perfection, with the seafood risotto offering a creamy texture and rich flavors, while the linguine had the perfect al dente consistency. If you're a seafood lover, you must try the options available here. The calzone and seafood pasta also came highly recommended and didn't disappoint. One impressive aspect of Posillipo is their superb wine selection. The staff provided excellent food and wine pairings, enhancing the flavors of the dishes. The prices for both the food and wine are reasonable, adding great value to the overall dining experience. The ambiance of the restaurant is cozy and inviting, making it an ideal spot for both casual and special occasions. While the sides were satisfactory, they didn't quite match the high standard of the main dishes. Overall, my experience at Posillipo was a delightful journey through Italian cuisine. I highly recommend it to anyone in Canterbury looking for an authentic Italian meal.”

“Simply outstanding character country pub set in rural Kent , set back from the road and with ample car parking. Although the Three Chimneys offers accomodation too, we booked ( strongly advised) for lunch and had a thoroughly fabulous experience. The staff despite being busy were very welcoming, and a big thanks to Sophie the Restaurant Manager for ensuring all our needs were taken care of. Now to lunch itself, the prawn and avocado cocktail plus belly of pork starters and the plaice fillet (with new potatoes and spinach)also local pork sausages (with mash) main courses were not just beautifully served but tasty too. The desert menu was tempting but wisely we settled for coffees! Old beams, fireplaces, great food, good selection of beers , friendly staff , if I could I would rate this place with 6 stars! We shall return for sure.”

“Bolognese was nice and the service was so quick. Really good value midweek lunch deal. Definitely good for a quick, but good lunch.”

“Absolutely delicious pepperoni pizza enjoyed in a welcoming atmosphere that's also dog friendly. It was absolutely rammed (a large table let us squeeze into the end of their table) so book in advance”

19 High St, Queenborough ME11 5AA, United Kingdom

“Haven't been here since my younger years when it was just a pub with not bad food. Well things change and the whole experience is completely new The bar is marvellously decorated to look like a ship very inkeeping with the name. The food was very nice and extremely well presented The staff couldn't be more friendly with the chef being happy that you are which was nice to see. The Guinness was cold and smooth 👌 The outside space is very welcoming and could see that being a perfect spot for a sunkissed afternoon. I shall definitely be going back”

“One of the best breakfasts I've ever had! Every item was good quality. Clean plate of food, not oily like some can be . Lovely friendly people running the Cafe .. Shame we live in London or this would be a regular place for us! Thank you from the people who asked about the back stairs 😂”

West Village, Dartford, Bluewater DA9 9SE, United Kingdom

“For main I had the Casareccia Pollo Piccante, accompanied by Garlic bread with cheese & for dessert I had the Zillionaire's Fudge Cake. The main lacked flavour so I was left with having to add salt & pepper to flavour the meal. The garlic bread was delicious. As for the dessert, pure disappointment for a fudge cake. This also lacked flavour. For drinks, I had a small bottle sparking water with lemon slices. The price for the water is quite higher compared to the size of the bottle. Overeat I had a great time with those who I was with but as for the food? Definitely lacked.”

“Me and my bestfriend went to Prezzo for a bottomless brunch on Thursday and it’s safe to say we left feeling satisfied and happy with the food, cocktails and the service! Our waitress Lauren was amazing, she ensured we had a drink on the go at all times during our 2 hour slot and was very attentive and polite. Would definitely recommend to any to try out the bottomless brunch menu here, the pizza was delicious and the cocktails were amazing!”

“Gareth- what can I say genuinely a cut above the rest when it comes to service. A few things I wasn’t a fan of (but personal preference) in no way a negative against anything they had served, yet he noticed and would alter things to please. Having had a really rubbish time lately and celebrating my daughters 13th, he made the visit a lot more pleasant. Would definitely return in hope he was my waiter again!”

“Well....this is a lovely restaurant. We were served by Bella who was an excellent waitress...Thanks Bella 👍. Location is exactly what it says on the tin...... Cosy. We loved it and will be returning. 2 for 1 cocktails when we visited. Food was great. We had coffee after our meal downstairs at the window looking out onto the Medieval street and properties. Again thank you. Highly recommended if you want great service, food and a chilled visit.”

“Such good food. Best burger I’ve actually ever had and living in London, I’ve had a lot of burgers. :) Beautiful setting. We went in winter, so it must be glorious in summer. Last time we visited was before Covid, so I didn’t hold my expectations high….yet the food was just as delicious and the staff were lovely too!”

“Arancini dipped with tomatoes sauce was the good start on that day, fried pasta chips surprised me as well. Then, if I remember correctly, pulled pork pizza was recommended by waiter, which is popular amongst customers. It has two sauce, tomato sauce and cream sauce divided the gigantic pizza. I hope I could find the words to describe how I felt, however, I must say, I can’t do it even in my mother tongue. Compared to the pizza, rigatoni with meatballs is ordinary to me, but not to my friend. We have different taste, and we both do enjoyed the food.”

52 Middle St, Deal CT14 6HT, United Kingdom

“This is a lovely little place with huge pizzas and a great family atmosphere. The chips were also five star. Good coffee. And all the desserts five star. I recommend the beekeeper which is honeycomb ice-cream and ginger. Absolutely delicious. Of course children love the bunny pizza!”

“I came in seated ok I ordered the buffet. The pasta was at most was lukewarm I did complain. They went over after a few minutes and put a probe in the pasta in tomato tested it while still in the warming position. Then they test the broccoli in white sauce out of the warming position and they took it away and put new pasta in I was there as he put it in the warming position I had some the plate freezing cold which don’t help. Got back to the table and that was only just warm not hot like it was the previous weeks Different staff on today other staff see me most weeks. I didn’t eat any more would have liked some more pasta. But I didn’t want to complain anymore.”

“I went here last week and I was quite frankly appalled with the service, it took an hour for the mains to come and over 15 minutes before we were even asked for drinks. I was really annoyed after this so I went into the bathroom to calm down, but in the bathroom the floor was SO slippery I could have cracked my head open, it’s a genuine concern and a hazard, the wet floor sign was in one of the stalls (where it was not even wet) I was thoroughly infuriated, when we finally ordered dessert it was disgusting, I asked to speak to the manager, only to find him coming to our table in a FUR SUIT the manager is a FURRY, I’m never visiting this restaurant again and it’s given my friend (diagnosed) PTSD”
