    homemade Lasagna
    Linda K.

    Great location. We didn't have a reservation but they accommodated us. I had the Salmon with shrimp. It tasted good but it was pretty greasy. T had the homemade Lasagna, he was not impressed. Service was very slow. Large menu with something for everyone.

    Bolognese with red wine

    I enjoyed my meal here. A friend recommended a spot down the street but I wanted more ambiance so I wandered around and sat down at 2 Italian spots. One was dead as a door nail and no one helped me, the other was weird and almost next door. I went here and they were slammed but accommodated me. Appetizer was fast, drinks kinda slow but they were running around busy as heck. The pasta bolognese was amazing. They did their best service wise and apologized for any mishaps. Would come here again

    Awesome place. Great menu and staff. Huge surprise to see pierogi on menu and they were best I've ever had. Definitely eat here if visiting Amsterdam.

    shrimp and zucchini pasta.

    Cafe Piazza is a cute little romantic spot. The food was amazing! One downside that i had was they don't serve cocktails- only wine and beer. The service was okay. It took almost 2 hours for us to get our food and eat. Don't come here if you want fast service.

    Oh I am rather disappointed. Especially considering the reviews that precede mine - clearly we had an off day. Maybe that is down to the aimless wandering that preceded our dinner, or that I wasn't really hungry, or maybe that I would've much preferred maybe Mexican or dutch food that night... who knows. We went in and were seated at a round table for four people. No effort was made to help us get the extra chair that we required as we were a party of five. The interior is nice, there is a mezzanine level, and has an almost intimate flair (ruined by loud people at adjacent tables). It took the staff a long, long time to come over purely to order our drinks - mind you, I think the majority of us were rather indecisive when it came to choosing our food, but waiting around for such a long time did get old rather quickly. I decided to order the pizza frommaggio - essentially a posh version of a margarita pizza because it has a mixture of Italian cheeses. It was decent. I hated the base and the crust - usually the crust is what I enjoy most, and I will leave it to last, or in case I'm not able to finish the entire pizza, I will at least aim to eat the crust (this dates back to my childhood, where I would always eat my mothers pizza crust. She loves me). At la Piazza, however, there was no way I was going to eat the crust. It was terrible. It was thing but not crisp, it just wasn't right. Nor did it taste like anything. Carolyn E let me try some of her bread with garlic butter - there was no garlic in the butter, and there was a strange sweetness or some random spice that was strange. I am sure that had I been in a mood for itallian food, or let alone any kind of food, this review might have gone differently. However, based purely on the waiting staff (key word here is waiting), and the chef (?) person who holds eye contact for just too long and the disappointing pizza, I'm not going to rush back when I'm back in Amsterdam.

    This Italian restaurant was just perfect. I came across it at random while searching for places to eat in Amsterdam and the Gluten free options made this an easy choice for me. Charming atmosphere and amazing food; my husband and I had no complaints. I had the GF ravioli which was a real treat because I have not had the fortune of eating a ravioli in many years. It was delicious. My husband had the tortellini and was blown away by how tasty it was. I tried his sauce and wow! It was just so perfectly balanced and flavorful. If you are looking for authentic Italian food and a cozy atmosphere this is your place. The Gluten Free menu is surprisingly large, even including several deserts. My husband and I shared the gelato and it was the perfect end to our meal.

    The food takes forever and the plates weren't properly cleaned.Its a nice place but not all that. The service was average

    Pierogi (Polish dumplings) and small Greek salad. Mmmm
    Brent S.

    Great food and service. I had a Greek salad and authentic Polish pierogi dumplings. Very flavorful. My friend had the lasagne I tried and loved. Nice portion size too. Another friend had the thin crust pizza which was very good also. Only my second time here but will be back for sure.

    Pepperoni pizza was good.

    Another very nice Italian place in the little Italy street from Amsterdam…read more Don't expect pizza's here though this is a real kitchen! This very small Italian is always packed. In the open kitchen you can see (and hear!) the chef work his magic. The bread, the starters, the fresh home made pasta's and the secondi's are all amazing. They import a lot from Italy themselves, and you can even but a bottle of olive oil here. The place is full of ferrari signs, foto's of Sophia Loren, etc. It feels like a second home. Great for a nice romantich night out or a double date, maybe not so good if you go with more then 4 people, as the place is very small. Expect to spend about 115 euro for 2 persons incl a bottle of wine. Make sure you reserve a table!

    Hostaria is an Italian restaurant situated in the Jordan area, the little Italy of Amsterdam. After…read morereading the reviews, we thought we'd give this one a try. On the outside it doesn't look all too fancy. Inside, the tables are closely arranged; making getting up from your table quite a challenge at times. However the waitress was friendly, and the atmosphere cosy. I had the truffle tagliatelle, which tasted excellent, but sadly wasn't cooked properly; it stuck together. Same goes for the pasta with sausage we had. Maybe the secondi taste better, but I'm not prone to go check them out after this experience. All in all, good service, but for the pricing they might pay a little more attention to the food.
