The owner welcomed us and made sure we had a table, even though we had to leave for a little while because we forgot something. We ordered a salad, which was nice, but not great and we ordered pizza which was very good. We each had a different red wine from Italy and they were both good.

The pizza was really good and you could taste its freshness. I had a couple of cocktails but it was really tempting to get beer on tap. The interior is cozy which adds to La Perla's exclusivity and reservation-only culture because there is limited seating inside. My friend recommended La Perla to me. He goes every time he's in Amsterdam. I can see why. Service was also great and quite friendly.

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.

I wonder why... people using these kinds of restaurants in Almere don't mind the time... because they come here for part of their socialization...?

A slice of USA in Amsterdam/Hoofddorp! Never prouder of being an American!…read more Thanks to Yelp, as always for being the source for all things to see, do, and eat while on the road. More so while traveling overseas to know what's nearby. With that said, I located New York Pizza on my yelp app for my iPhone my last night in Amsterdam/Hoofddorp. It was particularly meaningful, since I was away from my home country for a week traveling in Europe and needed that piece of home to remember. Pizza sounded good just about any time of day. The great news was that New York Pizza was about 2 blocks from my hotel (Hotel de Buers), so it was a quick walk and a hop there. Much like pizza joints in the states, this one was mostly a take away restaurant. The order took about 20 minutes from start to finish. I wasn't really in a hurry, so I just waited inside the store. It was your typical pizza joint, just only the fact that a few of the staff knew English. Kind of ironic when the restaurant is pure Americana. Guess that's how it is nowadays. I was glad that they knew English to help this American with ordering a pizza. :) The experience was short and sweet. Most of their pizzas were reasonably priced, so that wasn't an issue. The New York Pizza (take away) restaurant is located at Kruisweig 170 in Hoofddorp, in a cluster of commercial spaces in a large residential subdivision. Hoofddorp train station is nearby. There is street parking for those who drive, but also public transit routes #140 and #145 for those who love to commute by bus - like myself. You'd get off at Marketplein stop. The best of all amenity was that they do accept major credit cards, which is always a good thing. Since I was there anyway, there was a refrigerator filled with Ben & Jerry's ice cream. I think for €6 or €7, you can get the large size. Sometimes, it's definitely worth the extra money to have the goodness of home, especially when it's Ben & Jerry's! I ultimately bought the medium sized barbecue chicken pizza and I ate it all in one sitting. I just was too ravenous for my own good at the time. It certainly hit the spot! The pizza itself was delicious, as I had it pretty much straight from the oven. The mixture of the barbecue and cheese, along with it being a pizza made it's delectable debut in my mouth, and it was a dream symphonic production right from the get go! Never would I have had a pizza that was just so good, but when you're missing a piece of home, it felt really good to have a slice of Americana anywhere your travels take you. The Ben & Jerry's ice cream topped off the sensational meal. Certainly a good spot for pizza if you are in the Hoofddorp area of Amsterdam! I would recommend this one to one and all. So good!

We ordered the Bardak Alti (mini lamb pita) and the Ali Salata (salad) as starters. The mini pita is really small and probably for a single person, but was fine for the two of us to share just to get a taste. The salad was fresh and light, but also not a huge portion size. For the main, we opted to share an order of Barisik Tabak, which was a combo of Ali kebab (lamb & beef kebab), Saslik (veal w/ onion rings), and Pilic sis (tender cubes of chicken). This was a great sampler plate to try multiple grilled items and we really enjoyed it. The meat was tender and juicy, not dry at all, and very flavorful. The entree came with a small side salad and rice as well. We also ordered the baklava for dessert, which was super tasty as well.
