    Pizza Bianca con prosciutto
    Ann V.

    Located right on the canal in a two-story historic building with great views from the top floor. Excellent Italian food and attentive, friendly service. Lively spot with small tables (typical in Amsterdam) with lively crowd and vibrant energy. We enjoyed two pizzas, olives and focaccia to start and everything was delicious and fresh! Don't miss out on this gem.

    The menu was rolled up, huge, and a bit ridiculous.  There are two menus in this photo.  The one next to his elbow is the main one.

    The food (bruschetta & pizza) was really tasty, more than I expected being that we were in Amsterdam. We were happy to see it was open on Christmas Day, as well. Unfortunately, they were having electrical problems and the kitchen couldn't cook. We had wanted the pumpkin ravioli and the veal scallopini, but settled on pizza after more than an hour. Service was a bit spotty, but I don't think this was a fair night to judge. Would love to try it again under better circumstances.

    Bresaola pizza. Meh.

    One of the worst service experiences of my life. Food was average. The only bright spot was the host, who went out of his way to get me a table, and ended up waiting on me half the time. The rest, however - ruined by the people passing as servers. Not sure if I had an official server. One eventually came by. Ignored me most of the time, but the worst part was that they were all on a headset communication system, and they were obviously chatting and laughing with one another the whole time. No shame or attempt to hide the constant conversation even while AT THE TABLE. And then the servers would look at each other and laugh and continue with whatever fun they were having. Couldn't bother with food or drinks or customers. Disgusting. I had the meatballs (super average, but lots of whole basil leaves for garnish if you like that sort of thing), and a pizza with bresaola and arugula. Also average. Couldn't wait to get out!

    This is a bit of a struggle to review, because it's in a beautiful location, wonderfully appointed interior, nice views (from our table), and food was good. I give it a star for the availability of a table on a Friday night by reservations made at noon. The food was pretty good, still worth going, but my knock is feeling rushed and pushed by the wait staff. We eat out a lot in this country and that RARELY happens, if not at all. But this time, I'm surprised they didn't start changing the table clothes while we were still finishing our desert. You can see from the check (photo included) we spent a lot for four people. She was nice, but they definitely wanted to turn this table over, even when there were other 4-seat tables open. Decent prices for the main courses, generally. Not too loud from all the people, so a good evening.

    Great place. Food was excellent. We had an amazing view from our table. One needs reservations or you won't get in. I had the lasagna, they were really good. My husband had the spaghetti with salmon and it was so good and tasted so fresh. Great service from Frederico.

    Great Italian in Amsterdam, went here with a big group, we had a fixed menu but everything was made to order, beautiful presentation and taste. Wine list very nice, lots of choices. Staff professional and courteous. A must if you are craving Italian in Amsterdam.

    Great authentic Italian food in Amsterdam. Great vibe, courteous and attentive staff and excellent food. One of the best if not best Italian I've had in the city.

    Casa di David is a classic Italian restaurant from top to bottom. We had a nice pear and parmigiana salad, attempted vodka martinis, and meaty pasta. I, and a nice, fairly priced Chianti. Service was good, kind of aggressive, but appropriate. The first floor dining room is tight, tolerability loud, and perfect. We would definitely return if we had the chance.

    Perfect authentic Italian food located in Amsterdam. This place is charming with wine bottles along the walls and a large chain of garlic above your head. The menus arrive to the tables as scrolls. They take reservations and I highly recommend making one as we were there in a Wednesday and the place was jammed packed. Everything was delicious. The truffle pasta was perfect. Just enough truffle. The antipasto is actually a sampler of all their appetizers. Which is a fun reimagined take on antipasto.

    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.
