I love this little pizza place. Three years ago Renato moved back from Amsterdam to his home town…read moreEnkhuizen after ten years making the best pizza's in the capital of Holland. He sold his old pizza place to new owners and taught them all this tricks but they never convinced me to come back to this place. The pizza's are always excellent and the crust is nicely thin and crispy due to the fact that the dough has risen twice. This is Renato's secret to a great crust. The quality of the toppings and ingredients are very high and always from local organic produce (tomatoes, basil and cheese) or taken straight back from Italy. Renato goes back to his home country at least twice a year to bring the best ingredients home. He even makes his own spicy olive oil! Ask Renato if you can buy a bottle to take back home. My Vale 47 named after Valantino Rossi, was superb. Nice touch adding the homemade buffalo mozzarella after cooking to cool down the spicy meats. The Gorizza topped with grilled peppers, salame picante and blue cheese has always been my favorite. This is real Italian pizza made in the traditional way, they offer Italian genuine appetizers and special dishes if you ask for them. Nice desserts to round it all off. The homemade tiramisu is excellent! The cosy restaurant is stylishly decorated, the staff are always very friendly. I never eat pizza in Amsterdam anymore and always keep coming back to this family run business. Make sure to reserve a table if you want to enjoy Renato's pizza's. Note: they don't take credit cards.

Best pizza in the Netherlands. I have been going to Renato on and off for at least 20 years. I can…read morehonestly say that I have never had a better pizza, and also that I have never had a bad one. Renato really is the best. And I have had pizza in Italy! Renato beats then all. Easily. If you like spicy, try the spicy olive oil. The insalata caprese is to die for.

Good restaurant, friendly and good food. Especially the local lamb dish is very good. We will be…read moreback....

It's been almost a year since I have been in NL, but I still crave and dream of this great place…read more The pizza crust is crispy and fluffy at the same time, with just enough sauce and cheese. Most of the time I prefer more cheese, but something about this pizza is just perfect with less. I need to go back here.

Best Pizza in Town…read more Excellent pizza with fresh materials. We have been there multiple times with our family and friends. Excellent staff has always been very accommodating and friendly. Personally I like the pizza the best but my family also enjoyed the pasta dishes and the burger as well!

The service is pleasant, prompt,and caring. We were seated right away, with waiters speaking…read moreseveral languages (including italian, importantly!). The menu seemed limited but included other seasonal items. The open kitchen invited us to watch as the pizza dough was formed and tossed. We chose the quattro formaggio, and enjoyed it. Overall, we found this restaurant a reminder that Texel, for all its focus on tourism, retains its moments of authenticity. We would certainly go back! Something important the pizza makers are italian !

This Italian restaurant is located in the beginning/end of the restaurant-street in De Koog. When…read morelooking around in the restaurant it is like there have been 3 generations of different owners and all of them have chosen a different decorating style. The staff was quick to get us a table and take our orders, but after that it was like we where invisible. Empty glasses, empty plates and no one came to offer more drinks or to clear the table. Ordered risotto and pizza. The risotto was very compact and heavy and not really good. When asking waitress what kind of seafood they had in their seafood-risotto she said "eehm, eehm... a lot of them!". The dough on the pizza was great, but the toppings felt cheap in quality.
