Tasty meal before concert and lucky I came @6pm as by 7pm the place was packed. I was given menu…read morebut waiter forgot to tell me about the specials which are written in chalk. Service is interesting - only one waiter who takes the order and brings the food and drinks, one busboy, one person you pay at the cash register. One chef you see through the window. Ambiance is cozy and rustic. House wine is Montepulciano and its medium body and delicious. Salad was fresh and seafood pasta was large amount of pasta and seafood. Highly recommended!

Found Trattoria Totò, a small Italian restaurant while walking to our favorite coffee shop in…read moreAmsterdam, and we decided that we should make a reservation for that night right after dropping our bags off at our nearby hotel. Boy, we got lucky that we did. My parents and I have been in Europe for almost two weeks now and I kept thinking that I was in Italy the entire time while at this restaurant, as we did so much traveling. It was within walking distance of the hotel we were staying at, which was a plus. The restaurant is so small that it only has about eight tables and one waiter doing all the work, plus two chefs working in the kitchen. During our time there, lots of people that did not have a reservation were being turned away. We were seated at a table that had a decent view of the kitchen, though trying to get into my seat was a little tight. We started off with a glass of Pinot Grigio white wine, which is basically what we've been drinking at like every restaurant during our trip. This time, rather than sharing a bottle that was at our table, we just had the wine from the glass. After trying out so many different kinds of white wines over the past two weeks, I think I've grown to enjoy them so far. The food here was outstanding and delicious. I had the Pasta Bolognese, my dad had the ham and mushroom pizza, and my mom had the ravioli. The pasta just exploded with flavor in my mouth, including the Bolognese itself. My dad commented that this was one of the best pizzas he's ever had so far, and my mom commented that her ravioli was super flavorful, including the sauce that came with it. This is your taste of Italy right here in Amsterdam. Would highly recommend to other people!

We dined at Assaggi on our second night in Amsterdam. It was a spur of the moment choice - we…read moredidn't have a reservation. The staff was attentive and the food was good. The food didn't blow us out of the water, considering the price point but it we did enjoy it. I didn't get a picture of the scallops we started with - which was easily the best thing we had. Be mindful the dish is served with 3 scallops. My partner and I both had the rigatoni carbonara with pork guanciale as our mains. Very good but not the best I've had. We also enjoyed the moscow mule and caipirwine cocktails. There is a bathroom available to customers.

Awful experience. The food was tasty. Meal started with us asking about food allergens. He seemed…read moreto be so confused. When I asked for a manager, he said he was busy. Waiter then heckled about it with a table behind us. Beyond unprofessional. Mocking about my children's allergies. We looked past it and ate after he rolled his eyes multiple times about the allergies. Once the meal was done he kept pacing by our table, once we paid. There were two other tables empty. We maybe sat for fifteen minutes. He then came and said people were waiting and we needed to get up. Multiple other tables were also done with their meal. We explained we were almost done. He yelled "No get up now. Someone is waiting. Get out and leave." No one was waiting. The restaurant is tiny and you can see from the front to the back. At which point I asked for a manager. He yells I am the manager, get out before I call the police. To which I replied please do so. My friend is disabled and asked him to pass her crutches, which she needs to walk. He said no get out! Yelling in her face as spit flung on her. We were shocked and appalled and laughed. I cannot believe he is allowed to work in service industry. He was rude and evil. I am mortified that he would treat a disabled person this way. Not sure if he was racist, evil, or discriminatory against disabled people. Our party was mixed racially. Very doubtful he is the manager. Someone of his caliber is not capable of running a food truck. Stay away. Focaccia is not home made nor pizza dough. With a soy allergy they did not know if either item had soy as they buy both! Stay away! Too many other Italian restaurants in Amsterdam! It's almost laughable at how ge behaved.

I recommend getting their early or making a reservation- the seating is very limited and tight…read more Reservations are taken for 4 or more. You will become friendly with other guests as the tables are right next to each other. Moving on to the staff - the owners are very accommodating- speak English- and very friendly. This is not the place to have JUST a cup of coffee- sit and eat dinner or you will not be welcome. ( understandable as seating is limited) The food was delicious. Our group had various pastas and pizza - everyone was quite pleased with their selections. The serving sizes are just right ( not too large or small) - the food seasoning was not too strong yet delivered a very tasty meal. When in Amsterdam- I will revisit this small, quaint Resteraunt

He mentioned that this place is popular with celebrities and on the brick wall are the autographs of some of the celebrities that went there which I thought was really cool. We ordered: Focaccia (Fresh baked focaccia bread served with EVO oil from Puglia and semi dried tomato cream): focaccia was sliced and toasted and the semi dried tomato cream so yummy to slater on the bread. Burrata Pugliese (Burrata Pugliese cheese, tomatoes, homemade Pesto Genovese - EVO oil from Puglia): Burrata, was always, super creamy and totally delicious. My friend ordered the Fiordilatte mozzarella (tomato sauce,spicy salami, speadrable spicy sausage, stracciatella Pugliese cheese pizza. It was quite large and 2 of my friends shared that. I stole a bite and the spicy sausage was so good! I wasn't too hungry and ordered the minestrone soup which was so comforting on a cold day. It arrived piping hot and was full of vegetables. I felt so much better after having this. Service was attentive and friendly. I would love to come back the next time and try the pastas.

A True Gem in Amsterdam: Outstanding Food and Service at Guasto…read more Guasto Italian Restaurant in Amsterdam completely exceeded our expectations. From the moment we walked in, the staff made us feel like we were their top priority. The level of service was exceptional--warm, attentive, and professional. They genuinely made us feel like VIPs, offering personalized recommendations and ensuring we were comfortable throughout our meal. The food was nothing short of spectacular. Every dish was a masterpiece, bursting with fresh, authentic flavors. The pastas were perfectly cooked, and the pizzas were crispy, delicious, and topped with the finest ingredients. We couldn't get enough! Each meal was better than the last, and the variety on the menu ensured there was something for everyone. The management team was also incredibly hands-on, ensuring that each guest had an unforgettable experience. Their hospitality and attention to detail truly set Guasto apart from other restaurants. After such an amazing first experience, we ended up dining at Guasto four times during our trip to Amsterdam. It's clear this restaurant is committed to excellence in both food and service. If you're in the city, don't miss out on this incredible dining experience! Staff was so nice they even made a special request and made a baked potato for my salad and steak Thank you to the amazing staff

We wanted to go upscale a little bit and found a cluster of Italian restaurants. We looked online…read morefor reviews and Restaurant Gusto looked good, so we went in. We were seated and noticed a large block of hollowed-out parmesan cheese on a butcher-block table. After reviewing the menu, we asked about the cheese. It was for a spaghetti dish that "we wouldn't soon forget." "If we won't forget it, we have to have it," even though spaghetti is not the most adventurous thing to order in an Italian restaurant. The spaghetti is cooked and mixed with tomato sauce, then what I am guessing is hot oil is ignited and dumped into the hollowed out cheese. Then the spaghetti is added and mixed with the melted cheese, removed and served with additional shreds of hard parmesan. The result is nothing short of fantastic and I believe it when I was told Americans return every couple of years or so just to eat this dish. We also had a mozzarella and tomato salad (as if we needed additional cheese) and complimentary green and black olives. Most restaurants here serve Heineken on tap, but this place appears to only have Peroni, which was perfect. We'll be back.
