Roasted Amatriciana
Alexander Y.

Ok so a lot of my friends told me to come to nNea. Now I know I was trying to find new places to eat in Amsterdam, but for a guy who loves New York-style pizza, going for Neopolitan-style pizza isn't quite my thing. And I know it was recently ranked #48 on the Top 50 Pizza World ranking list and the best pizza in Amsterdam. But since my friends wanted to try it, sure, why not. If you came here, you probably didn't have a reservation. Well, I talked to them and they said their reservations are open a year in advance. Like...who even knows what they are doing a year in advance? They do keep 25% of their tables open for walk-ins, so thankfully we were able to secure a seat that way. Ordered the Partenope, which is dominated by octopus, and the Roasted Amatriciana, which was topped by guanciale. I suppose for Neopolitan-style pizza, this is pretty damn good. Really tasty ingredients and good crust that is light and airy that held the ingredients up well. They even give you scissors to cut the pizza since it comes out unsliced. Service was good. Even though we were walk ins, they didn't rush us out the door and made sure we had time to eat. I guess the line out the door is proof that nNea Pizza is doing something right. I wouldn't wait that long for it because I know what great pizza is. But in a city starved of elite pizza, I guess I can understand why it is so popular.

Margarita pizza

I'm not sure if I didn't order right but I thought the pizza here was over hyped. It was okay in my opinion. It's extremely hard get a table and then have another spot where you can take your pizza to go. I didn't think it was anything special, just thin pizza.

Walk, no RUN here! THIS WAS SO GOOD! A short walk from CityHub hostel, we put our name down for 2 people around 7PM and there was about a 30 minute wait. When I was researching places to eat in Amsterdam, this restaurant came up on several lists for some of the "best pizza in the world". - seriously, on its website it states "nNea has been awarded with 3 spicchi Gambero Rosso and named one of the top italian restaurants in the world. 50 Top Pizza, the guide to the best pizzerias in the world, has voted nNea no.1 in The Netherlands, no.9 in Europe and no.48 in the world." We got two pizzas - a classic margarita and another called Capefierr (Squeezed plum tomatoes, salsiccia a punta di coltello (made by us with local meat), fried padron peppers, mozzarella di bufala, parmigiano reggiano, basil). The ingredients were fresh and delicious (I'm Italian I know good mozzarella and sauce), only critique is the dough could've been cooked a bit longer. We ended up eating both pizzas!

Tuna nduja pizza and margherita pizza
Maxwell C.

After 3 weeks visiting family in Italy, we felt a little silly going here during a long layover in Amsterdam, but so glad we did. Superb Neapolitan style pizza -- some of the best we've ever had -- in a lively spot run by Italians. Both the classic margherita and tuna nduja were delicious, as was our dessert focaccia.

Read about this place being one of the best in the world. It is! We waited an hour but we'll worth it. The woodfired light airy thin crust is perfectly topped with the most outrageously tasty fresh sauce. The pies come with scissors so be prepared to cut those slices. Don't miss this place and there's also a take out side if you don't want to wait.

Salami pizza
Mina G.

Read lots of good reviews about this place so had to go and check it out! Luckily we got in no reservation seated at the bar. Quick service overall, place gets packed at dinner time. We tried the salami pizza. Man it was so good. Nice crust and chewy dough. The salami was some spice to it that was tasty. Overall best pizza I had in the city would definitely come back again!

Beer

I was a bit hesitant to go the full 5-stars due to the length of time to get a reservation at a decent hour (one month), but with the pizza being excellent and the vibe & service very friendly, I went ahead with that rating. I've lived nearby for over 3 years and never have eaten here due to covid restrictions and the difficulty getting a table. A couple of negatives are they told us we have until 9:30 pm but at 8:55 pm were telling us they needed the table at 9 (we were finished eating and drinking though). It's super busy in there, my friend was feeling a bit tired from the lack of fresh air indoors. The pizza was delicious. I am not the best pizza expert, but the starter was delicious too. I think it was slightly better than a competing Napolean style pizza place not too far away, mainly the crust was crispier and warmer. The prices are reasonable as well. I'd like to try them again on a non-weekend night.

Margharita with bufala
Sharon M.

Ranked #48 in the world's best 50 pizzas. I heard it's very difficult to get a reservation here so we walked in on Saturday at around 8pm. We had to wait an hour to get seated, so we went next door to chill and grab beers. We ordered the partenope and margherita pizzas and they were AMAZING. Definitely worth the hype and waiting in line for if you can't get reservations. The only downside is that their wine isn't the best and it took awhile for the pizzas to be ready. Recommend enjoying your pizza with a glass of refreshing beer! I'm definitely coming here again the next time we're back in Amsterdam!!

Frittatina di pasta
Steven H.

We walked in when they opened since we were unable to secure a reservation in advance. They were able to accommodate us for 1.5 hours which was the perfect amount of time for our dinner. The staff was nice and very knowledgeable in terms of helping us with the wine selection. We found the restaurant to be very very hot and we sat in the back by an open door. We started with the Frittatina di pasta which the staff highly recommended. I really enjoyed the crispy outer texture meshing with the cheesy pasta insides, but I did feel that it was a dressed up version of fried mac and cheese bites. Not that it was bad but in my opinion I would skip it if you've had something similar. 6.75/10 The fun part were all the pizza options. Really creative pies are being offered, unfortunately we were only able to eat two of them. We ordered the 'nduja Tonnata with a yellow sauce, mozzarella di bufala, onions, 'nduja and tuna (!!!) finished with oregano, paprika and lemon. This was a super interesting pie as I had never had both 'nduja and tuna on the same pie before. I did feel the 'nduja over powered the fish, but in a good way. Out of the very interesting/non traditional pies they had I would say this would be the one to order. 8.5/10 Of he second pie we ordered was the Partenope, which is the octopus and stracciatella pie. I love both of these things separately and it photographs well together, but I don't think they mesh as well as I hoped. The crust/dough they're using is excellent, but I would probably order a traditional pie instead just to see how to matches up to more familiar tastes. If this was my local pizza place I would order it again, but if you're traveling and if this is your only opportunity to eat here I would skip. 6.5/10 Overall I think with better ordering this would have received 5 stars (our fault not theirs for what we like to eat) from my experience I would rate this 3.75/5 stars.

a fantastic Neapolitan pizza. crust is phenomenal, soft and airy with minimal flop for a neapolitan. our favorite was the mushroom and margherita.

This pizza will now set the standard for excellence. Every pizza in the past doesn't come close. Amazing!!!
Robert N.

The best pizza I have ever had in my life. I hate to say that as it is already difficult to get in.

Oro di bufala
Jason S.

Simply remarkable, the pizza that ruins all other pizza. Get the oro di bufala and just enjoy. Remarkably fluffy crust dusted with cheese, a bright orange tomato sauce, a perfect balance of toppings, cutting each slice yourself just adds to the experience. Even the margherita pie was lovely, a more burnt crust, again bright colors, with a beautiful balance. Basically order everything and share, and you can't go wrong.

Spicy margherita
Queena O.

I was so excited to eat here. Couldn't get a reservation so stood in line around 5:20 before 5:30 opening. Got seated at the bar/counter right away. Oh my. The pizza was so so good. The dough. Oh my. We got the spicy margherita and one recommended by our server, the one with octopus and juice (wasn't so sure but it was tasty). So glad I got to eat here during my vacation in Amsterdam.

Food was great but we had waited so long just to be seated on a weeknight. Ended up ordering to go because we were tired of waiting.

Really good pizza and friendly staff. We went there on a hot night and they could do with a better air conditioning solution.

Bos en Lommer, West

This place is literally three minutes from my house. I had a friend over who started a new job in…read moreAmsterdam, so thought it'd be a good idea to go here for pizza's. Three reasons we went here: - Three minutes from my house ;-) - Charcoal oven where they make the pizza's - It was 'Gierige Maandag' (Greedy Monday); pizza's were 8 euro's So yea. The combination of these factors made us go here. The place is nicely decorated, great for a multitude of reasons. Good wifi available, good beers both bottled and draft, and god yes those pizza's. De-lish. They were very nicely done and even though it's called Gierige Maandag, they definitely were not Gierig with the toppings. Great mozzarella, lovely crust, not too much cheese (god I hate too much cheese), very nicely balanced flavors. We switched halfway through our pizza's and I can confirm that both were amazing. They have a number of specials depending on the day, so I'd recommend trying out a few of these days. But the pizza they serve are what hooked me and I'm sure it'll get you hooked, too. You're welcome! :-)

I like everything about this place, it is located in the middle of Bos en Lommer, what is perfect…read morefor me, I like the interior, very nice, very hipster and gezellig, lekkerrrrre coffee and sandwiches (salmon sandwich is my favorite). At night it turns to a bar with wonderful cocktails (I liked my Gember mohito!), nice music. Recommended!
