The service and environment were friendly, and the food delivered. We enjoyed a Burrata tomato salad made with arugula, focaccia, penne pasta arriabata, and a rib eye steak. We also purchased a bottle of Italian wine, a barolo that was very nice. I will tell you that if we had drank more going to the bathroom, would've been a harrowing experience as the bathroom is located upstairs up a very narrow, steep stairwell. So, this Italian restaurant is very worthy of being considered while you're in downtown Amsterdam.

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.

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!

We had an early departure and so didn't want a heavy meal. Our hotel staff recommend pizza here. We ordered a pizza with chicken, spinach, sweet peppers and olives on it, and a margherita pizza. While waiting for the pizzas, we had to try the espresso martinis. These were top notch! I'd count amongst the best martinis I've had. When the pizzas came, we were blown away. We had asked the size and were told a usual individual pizza, so we were expecting dinner plate size. These were AT LEAST twice that. We so wished we had only ordered one and shared. The crust was thin, cracker-like and we liked that very much. Among our best meals. I missed the photo as we were too ready to dig in! The restaurant was very lively, lots of festive music and plenty of people watching available. The restaurant didn't come up on any of our online suggestions while traveling, but if you are ever in the area, don't hesitate. Do be careful, because short walk in Europe is quite different from an American short walk. The walk was about 15-20 minutes from our hotel. The air was brisk, and part of the walk is along the water... so to our American friends... just bundle up and go for it! The walk and the evening was a delight!

Hands down one of my favorite restaurants in Amsterdam. Amazing Italian food, it's easy to miss but…read moreso worth it. Service: As some have said the service is a little slow but I took it more as relaxing. This is one of those restaurants that you go to for the "dining experience". Not an in and out rushed kind of establishment, your truly "dining" and enjoying the moment kind of a place. Our waiter was friendly and knowledgable of the menu offering us great suggestions. Food: Some of the best Italian food I've had in a long time. From start to finish everything was out of this world. -To start the burrata and tomato was very fresh and tasty. Some of the best burrata surprisingly, I didn't imagine Amsterdam would be known for this Italian treat when all of their cheeses usually offered are hard. The olive oil dressing to match was great, I have burrata & tomato salads all of the time but this one blew me away....maybe I was just hungry from all the walking but that's not the point, give it a try. My main dish: pesto pasta. Great! Super flavorful and the green beans mixed in was a treat. I honestly stuffed my face, the serving size is large but it's too good to just eat half. I'd highly recommend this dish as I saw many also ordered it. The ravioli was good as well, I stole a bit from the table. Pricing is reasonable given its a nicer restaurant in the area with great quality food. This place is a true Italian dining experience, I'd highly recommend this place for a romantic dinner or just simply to impress your guests with a hidden gem.
