While visiting Amsterdam, we decided to visit Eddy Spaghetti for dinner. We made a reservation in…read moreadvance and we were seated immediately on arrival. We each ordered one of their spritzes (they had several different kinds available) and they were light and refreshing. We shared a margherita pizza and arrabbiata. We chose the option to add Burrata to the pizza, and it was divine! The pasta was very tasty as well and had great flavor to it. The restaurant space was very cute and trendy, and they had plenty of seating both inside and outdoors. The service was too notch, and this meal was one of the highlights of our visit!

A wonderful experience. So much care and quality put into every dish we had. The three or four…read moreingredients listed per dish don't give any idea of the amazing tastes to come! Came here with a group of colleagues, as Jacobsz had been recommended. The restaurant was quite spacious, and there were not many diners on the Tuesday night of our visit (later found out there was a big football match). The service was exceedingly professional, despite a very laid back look. Very friendly and also extremely knowledgeable, and our waiter helped a lot with dish selection and explanation. We all ordered the four course option. Looking at the menu I had my doubts about enjoying the meal, but I was wrong. Again, dishes are listed as the four or so main ingredients in the dish, with no other descriptors. I ordered the Yellowfin Tuna starter, Iberico Presa as the "Between", Gnocchi as my main course, and the cheese. Wow. The tuna was rare and cut into ceviche-sized pieces, paired with other ingredients and served on a sort of tomato broth base. It was fresh and delicious. Everything worked so well together (theme of all the dishes). Others in my group had either the cauliflower or duck confit, and all thought those were wonderful as well. The Iberico Presa was a slow cooked cut of pork, and it was maybe the slightly lower point in the meal, as the pork was not as tender as I would have preferred. The rich sauce and onion really complimented the pork, though. My main was the Gnocchi, and it looked unlike any I've ever seen. In fact, when the dish was set down I could not tell that it was Gnocchi, as the gnocchi itself was covered with a crunchy...something! Not sure what it was, but again everything was delicious! The Gnocchi were plated with red chicory, and also had garlic and puntarelle. A wonderful dish. A perfect cheese plate to finish our fabulous meal. We all talked about this place. A culinary gem in Amsterdam.

A place that gets almost full om a stormy Monday night in November must be doing something right…read more It turned out it was not something; it was everything. Jacobz is a top-knotch high service restaurant that brings more then decent cuisine at moderate prices. Staff was very attentative and flexible, budt most of all relaxed and non-intrusive. We had a three course meal with some quick bites upfront; all of which were of a very good quality (maybe not Michelin-star, but cutting it close). The wine list features a very broad combination of classics and new world surprises. Interior design is very spacious for Amsterdam standards (ambitious, one might say), but it certainly lives up to what it appeare to be. Will definetely be back; often. And that's not only just because I live nearby.

On a Friday night our first option didn't have capacity for the eight of us, but Pasta Factory was…read morewide open so we went inside. We were hungry! The menu wasn't too exciting but it was reliable. The highlight for our meal was the waiter. He was crazy! He ran around frantically and we could hear him yelling in the back. We were tired after a very long day and he provided most of the entertainment during the meal. He also left right before we paid the bill. We were finished with the meal but before we paid, we watched him walk out with his backpack. I ordered the spaghetti con bacon. It included olive oil, garlic, chili, sunflower seeds, crispy bacon, rucola and parmesan. It was filling. I appreciated that they had space for eight of us on a busy evening in Amsterdam.

From the pictures I could tell they make a good crust and I'm pleased to say I wasn't disappointed…read more Really good pizza and the crust was the star. The potato and porchetta was a nice pairing, though it could have used a little salt. Started with a ceaser salad as I've been desperate for some veg and it was a pretty small side salad for 12 Euro, which was kinda sad, but good dressing and croutons. I saw the lasagna on other tables and it also looked very good. This restaurant is kinda tucked away off the main street, but it's worth seeking out. Good, friendly service, clean restaurant and bathrooms. A good choice for a more casual dinner.

We didn't have reservations, but they were able to seat us after a short 15 minute wait. The place was very busy. The staff were polite. The menu had some good options. We went with the bruschetta for a starter, the tagliatelle bolognese, and the lasagna. The bruschetta came with four pieces. It was good. The lasagna was my favorite, but the tagliatelle bolognese was very good as well. We wanted some bread so we ordered the focaccia. It was good. The tables are packed closely together so you can get to know your neighbor. This was a pleasant surprise for us to find while wandering around after visiting the Rembrandt House.

My partner had the tomato soup with bread and also the house speciality Spaghetti Al Parmigiano Reggianno. He loved the soup and liked the spaghetti. They use something to light the inside of a large wheel of cheese on fire to melt and then add the pasta in and mix. For him, it had too much of a ingering taste of the alcohol in his spaghetti he didn't care for.
