So thrilled with this place which is high praise considering I just walked in off the street! I'm a picky/annoying eater and they managed to both accommodate and impress me! The staff is magnificent and the food is delectable - I was not expecting anything this tasty in Amsterdam. Salute! read more

Lo Stivale D'oro - Bruchetta Classico - Italian Near Me - Amsterdam, New Hampshire

I recommend getting their early or making a reservation- the seating is very limited and tight. 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 read more

Lo Stivale D'oro - Italian Near Me - Amsterdam, New Hampshire

Really great pizza, great service. May be dark out front, so make sure the sign in the door says open.

Really good food (dishes could be bigger), very friendly staff, nice restaurant atmosphere, all of this right in the centre, close to Rembrandtplein. Not expensive at all when comparing to other restaurants around that location. Why 4 stars? Well, any restaurants that don't take the PIN card deserve a 4/5 in my book. Take that services industry! read more

Lo Stivale D'oro - Italian Near Me - Amsterdam, New Hampshire

Lo Stivale D'oro was the highlight of our dining experiences in Amsterdam. Not only is the food exceptionally good, but both the owner, Mario and his staff are charming, friendly and helpful. We enjoyed the Antipasti all' Italiana , the Caprese di Bufala -- which had the most wonderful fresh homemade buffalo mozzarella -- and the Funghi Trifolati appetizers. Main course highlights included Scaloppina alla Milanese -- which was among the best veal scalopinni we have had outside of Italy -- the Quattro Stagioni Pizza, a delightful thin crust pie divided into quarters, one for each season, featuring Parma ham, salami, artichokes and mushrooms, and the Ravioli alla Salvia. Desserts were a delight, although the tiramisu, which looked spectacular, sold out before we were ready to order. Nevertheless, at Mario's suggestion we tried the Torta al limoncello, and the Tartufo Affogato, both very enjoyable, and which combined tasted a lot like tiramisu!. Don't be put off by the restaurant's small size, or by the full dining room. This is a small local "joint" frequented by many regulars, and while you may have to wait for a table, and though you may be a bit cramped, it is well worth putting up with these minor inconveniences for the excellent food, and the friendly atmosphere. Go now, and do say hello to Mario from the Cohens. Tell him we're still hoping for a branch in New York. read more

Terrific Italian rustic style. Tastes like mom made it if she were an Italian grandmother. Great place to go if you dont have reservations. Good value. Passable service. I'll be back. read more

This spot feels super cute and authentic. The seating is cramped but the food and service make up for it. The dishes were large enough that we each could eat only a small salad and one course. The sea salt crusted fish was beautiful. You would think it would be inedibly salty but it was perfect. read more

Went for dinner while visiting Amsterdam. It is located just across the bridge from the Waterloo station and about a 5 minute walk from Rembrandt Square. Service was VERY slow as one waitress services the entire restaurant. Tables are VERY close together and parties are often asked to share tables. There is a 5% surcharge for using a credit card as they prefer CASH. Food was OK, nothing special. Bruschetta was OK. Caprese salad was OK. Pasta was good. Prices were reasonable. We've had better Italian food at many other restaurants in Amsterdam, including Eatmosfera in Rembrandt Square. read more

Great little place. The service was good and the food was excellent. There is no English menu but the staff makes it easy if you don't know what to order. Go for the Raviolis, made fresh and tastes great. It can be tricky finding reasonably priced food that tastes great, but this place nailed it. read more

What a wonderful last meal to end our tour in Europe, albeit an Italian one in the Netherlands. A great non-Yelp review led us there and did not disappoint. We went during peak hours (which seem to be between 7 and 8 pm) and without reservations. The restaurant was packed with just two two-seaters available-- They make use of every square inch so expect to dine in close quarters with other patrons. Our neighbors were friendly and we enjoyed people watching. We ordered the Tagliattele Tartufo Pecorino (truffle) and the Spaghetti Aglio e Olio and both were DELICIOUS, better than anything we have had stateside. You would think that Aglio e Olio would be easy to make but it is quite hard to find a good Aglio e Olio made right in LA - it was absolutely PERFECT here. They were generous with their truffle too, which I really appreciated. Our waitress was friendly, while the larger man (I'm assuming one of the two sons) was not so much, at least to us. The night we were there, the other son was not playing his guitar as we had read about, but we saw him very busy in the back- he came out at the end and was very friendly to us. We hear their mother cooks all the food in the back- what amazing, truly authentic Italian cooking- Bravo! In total, everything came up to around 35 euros, including wine and beer- worth every single euro and a few extra for tip even if the culture doesn't call for it. Definitely make this a meal while you're in Amsterdam, if you're willing to make room for non-Dutch cuisine! read more

Nice restaurant but a bit too cramped - brushetta amazing - pasta over cooked I would have enjoyed another glass of wine but couldn't get anyone's attention Pizza takeout looked busy but one more guy returned and asked that his 5 pies be cut - isn't it standard to cut pizza into slides or no not here? Need more staff read more

I have never been to Italy, but after my trip to Amsterdam, I feel like I can say I tried the food. It is exactly what I imagine authentic Italian food to be. I had the Gnocchi and it was light and fluffy with a good bite to it. The sauce was perfectly seasoned and flavorful. Excellent, excellent, excellent. Can't wait to make it back to Amsterdam because this will be my first stop. read more

Family run restaurant that seems to have built up a great clientele. We arrived at 5, and within 30 minutes the place was filled. The tables are tightly packed, and I mean tightly. This all added to the feel of this family restaurant. Our food was delicious. I ate the spaghetti oglio, and my husband had spaghetti carbonara that he ate in record time. It was light (as a carbonara can be), and pasta was perfectly cooked. My son had the pizza, I thought the crust was a bit unusual (I am originally from New York, and we think we are all pizza connoisseurs). My son loved it and ate every bit. Pricing is very fair. Make a reservation if you are more than 3, definitely get there early and Mangia!!! read more

I was optimistic when I saw the great reviews, but unfortunately, I did not have a good experience. When I entered the restaurant there were only two tables taken, but when I asked to sit at the window, I was told I couldn't. Those seats remained empty up until the time I was done eating. The waitress made me feel embarrassed and humiliated, as I asked her questions, she giggled and looked around the restaurant as if trying to encourage other patrons to join her. The food was ok. I didn't feel welcome or like a valued customer. I won't be back. read more

I had a wonderful dinner experience here yesterday. The food was good, the service was excellent, especially the host/cook. In addition they had AC for a hot day like yesterday making our dinner experience a great one! Don't be fooled by the simple interior, you'll feel welcome soon enough and the amazing service makes it cosy. read more

Pizza is very large and all fresh ingredients. Recommend take out as seating is very close and tight

Another food highlight from our visit to Amsterdam. A blog review lead us to check out this place, and we we're so glad we did. The restaurant is small (reservations are a good idea!), and ran by an Italian family. We had decent service, and didn't have a long wait for our food. We ordered a pizza, which was amazing. Thin, crispy crust. It will not be cut into slices as this style is generally meant to be consumed via fork/knife. It was easy enough to cut slices, or however you would prefer. We also ordered the Gnocchi, which was homemade and something we really enjoyed. We almost made this place a repeat visit it was that good. read more

Good flavour. Annoying service, high prices and really small portions. They charge you a couple of extra euros to use a local bank card. Ridiculous. It's next to free for them to accept these payments. I suspect it's a way to avoid taxes. The pasta was a bit over cooked so mushy. The ragu was tasty. The grilled beefsteak was a nice flavour but the cut was tiny. Overall, I would say the seasoning was good but everything else was average. Deduct a star for poor service. read more

Slam Dunk: So glad I went, and I went only because I found so many good reviews here. We went around 9pm on a Thursday night in late February. Some reviews say to call ahead for reservations. It's small so I would (and did). Great food, perfect portions. If you're in Amsterdam and want Italian food, go here, it's worth the walk. Small groups, 6 tops but call ahead. read more

Outstanding! The food was great, the owner is a character and the waitress is really good and nice. This place is a gem! The octopus salad is fabulous. We both had pasta dishes and they were very good. The place is small so you get to know your neighbors and ours said everything is great and two of them were locals. This place is on our list of restaurants to revisit. read more

This is one of the few restaurants recommended by my friend's French guidebook (Cartoville) and by my French friend himself. Affordable, great food -- a rarity in Amsterdam. read more

Holy amazingness! By far the best Italian spot outside of Rome. Will definitely go back for more before we leave Amsterdam. An absolute must read more

If I could give this place no star I would! The most disgustingly rude place I've walked in to. We were three people and got put on a table maybe big enough for two at a push. When requesting to move to a table just vacated by 3 we were told we couldn't and when asked for an explanation the waitress and perhaps manager/chef/owner told us it wasn't allowed and literally told us to leave if we didn't like it. Well so we did and we'll shout it from the heavens not to go to this place. How rude, shame on you!!! read more

Hole in the wall Southern Italian that just kills. Family run with equal parts talent, love and courage. Outstanding food at very reasonable prices. A gem. No menu in English but nothing unfamiliar to anyone who eats Italian. The owner has enough English to help with explanations. No problem ordering for the five of us (including two teens). Starters were excellent bruschetta, world-class calamari and a carpaccio of super fresh swordfish. Fresh pastas were amazing, including a special of tagliatelle with truffles (which could be both seen and tasted). Veal marsala was outstanding, not the typical sweet-on-bland menu filler. Pizzas looked great, will try next time. Desserts were homemade and wonderful, especially the tiramisu. House red was surprisingly good and ridiculously inexpensive. Hate to give away the secret, but it's a must-try. Nice location, easy to find. Note, they don't take US credit cards, only chip and pin (and cash). read more

The friendliest service!! These people make you feel like family no matter where you come from. Gave us handwritten notes for bar directions and kept us light hearted throughout the entire dinner. read more

Came here because of all the good reviews - and it was definitly a really good idea. We had an antipasti plate and pasta - molto bene. Fell in love with this little place. read more

Okay, so I am a visitor to Amsterdam. The first night I arrived my friend and I stumbled upon this place and I thought it was GREAT. The pizza, the dessert, the ambience - just great. I had no complaints. It is my last night in the city and I suggested we go back there because of how much we enjoyed it. I entered the restaurant. It was not busy at all. There were empty tables. The waiter looked at me, and I thought okay cool he'll be coming to me in a second. He did not. We made eye-contact again. He kept walking right by me. He then stood in front of me. I decided to wait some more to be seated. There was another man behind the counter. The waiter and him spoke and looked at me so I thought oh joy I'll be seated soon. Nope. They kept looking at me. It was weird, humiliating and awkward. I turned around and left the restaurant. I was so disappointed. I don't understand what happened there. I was not greeted at all for an entire 10 minutes of standing there. That is not normal... at least to me. I don't know if I'll be going back when I visit AMS again unless I'm given an explanation..? read more

The place was busy but I got take out. The bruschetta was amazing! I would have given them 5 stars but the lasagna was over cooked and mushy and bland. But the bruschetta was so amazing so u believe that they deserve a second go and are worth it. Good portion size. read more

Just like eating in nona's kitchen! It's small and "intimate" so you'll probably end up eating next to another couple/table and hearing their convos as if you were with them. But it's cozy, and the staff are super friendly and treat you like family. The octopus starter was very good, the pizza was well above average and the gnocchi with pesto and shrimp was delicious!! The veal was average but didn't take away from the experience. I'd visit again. read more

This was the most disappointing eating experience we had in three weeks of traveling in Europe. The food was awful, overpriced, and the service indifferent at best. I think I can get better spaghetti Bolognese out of a can. Don't waste your Euros here. read more

Great little Italian eatery not too far from Amsterdam's central station. Good clean simple and unpretentious, this is the kind of Italian restaurant you'll wish your city had. Order off the specials menu hanging on the wall for an extra special treat --you won't be disappointed. read more

Hands down the best Italian food outside Italy yet and even rivals many of the restaurants I've visited in Italy. I had the gnocchi the wife had the meat ravioli. Family owned and operated service is outstanding and as friendly as you can get when you leave you feel like you're leaving family! read more

By far this was the most delicious meal we had in Amsterdam. Best ingredients and home style Italian made this the comfort food we were needing. Hit the spot! read more

What a find! We started out on Yelp looking for some pizza and discovered what was the best meal of our 2-week trip. The bread was delicious with small pieces of olive and herbed butter. The prices were really reasonable so we decided to skip just having pizza and instead enjoyed appetizers of calamari and really fresh bruschetta as well as pasta dishes (DO get the truffled tagliatelle!). We ordered some house wine and the price was so low we didn't realize it was for an entire liter, but gluttonously drank it all down as we watched the night life on the street and the people playing music in the cafe across the street. This place would fit right in with all the trendy old school Italian places here in Brooklyn but here the crowd and the prices would be twice the size. read more

A little gem of Southern Italian cooking just off the main tourist drag. Homely and very crowded. Service is friendly but can be slow; but the food is well worth the wait. read more

We had a great meal there our last night in Amsterdam. The prices are reasonable and the food was superb.

This place is amazing. Go and get the special: tagliatelle with truffles before they run out. It was so incredibly good. Might have to come back tomorrow before we go back to the US. read more

Very good food. Nice atmosphere and friendly service. I would really recommend this place.
