Great ambiance. The entry needs work. You might bang your head on the bars by the door.

Fine whatever. We finally got a table one night. Our server was super nice and attentive, ordered wine and dinner. i absolutely love the charming space too, which makes it more heartbreaking. The manager/chef wouldn't stop staring at us the whole time, seemed like she was trying to listen to our convos too, weird. Got our meals, very so-so. Overpriced. Wouldn't go back- even if I was Dutch.

Hands down favorite Italian place (outside of Italy :)). The servers are hilarious and always make…read morethe visit fun (but don't bother you too much either). The food is incredible. They have recently gone up slightly in price (13Euro for the ravioli, I think) but it's still not overly expensive for Amsterdam. The burrata as appetizer is incredible and totally worth the 30Euro (easily split with 6 people if you wanted to). The homemade ravioli's are so delicious. The pear-cheese is my favorite. It's served simply with melted butter, parmesan and some pepper. It doesn't need more. Italian food should be simple so that the amazing taste of the food comes out. The side of veggies and potato that you can order on the side is also amazing. I'm not sure what they cook them in but I had to eat it all even though I was full. The ravioli of the day is also always a unique and good ravioli. Make sure to make a reservation! They are always full. If it's just one or two people they will try to squeeze you in late but then you might miss out on some of the best menu items because they will be out.

Nicely historic interior, but some overly cheese-and-cream laden dishes…read more The wooden steps up to the dining area are worn into deep cups, the harder knots in the floorboard stick up above the softer grain; dark brown walls, antique wallpaper, and a nice view into a back yard well stocked with olive oil for the kitchen. (There's also a old-fashioned wall-mounted tank for the toilet, but most people wouldn't count that as part of the decor.) The mixed-seafood looked like a solid pick, but we'd had something similar the night before so went for pasta; this turned out to be a somewhat regrettable choice. The daily special pasta, just described as "Lasagne" on the blackboard, turned out to be a carbonara version with speck and a very, very heavy cream sauce. Some nice flavors but also some weird ones, and really just full of cream. We also got the tortelloni funghi, which was severely lacking in mushroom flavor, and drowned in butter, oil, and ground parmesan cheese. Not particularly good on its own, and truly paled in comparison with a recent lunch at Ree7. The strongest part of our meal was the tiramisù, where Koevoet's signature is using whole-wheat biscuits instead of ladyfingers. Fascinating, and well-covered in marscarpone and cocoa; not as much coffee flavor as I usually like, but it worked well.

After reading some good reviews at Dutch websites and seeing the menu (everything biological /…read moresustainable!) we decided to go here for dinner. We were with 7 people and it was absolutely great! When entering we immediately felt at home. The owner introduced himself and even the chefs waved hello from kitchen, which you can look into from the bar.The place is located in a small street right in the midst of everything that Amsterdam has to offer. Musea, shops, bars, and the beautiful canals are right around the corner. Inside it's very cosy with lots of atmosphere, and it's well decorated. You need to go up some steps to get to the tables, so it's not wheelchair friendly. The chairs are pretty comfortable and there's plenty of room at the table, on which you will find real linen and nice wine & water glasses. The waiter who served us was very friendly and always just there when we needed him but never there when we didn't. This is an art you don't see much anymore. After we asked he gave us lots of information about the wines, which helped us choose one that we liked. They have mostly Italian wines and we tried 3, all were very good. The cheapest bottle on the menu is 20 euro, but they also have plenty of higher priced wines. I remember we had a very nice Suave that set us back something like 30 euro. Well worth the money. The menu is small, but well balanced. They change it every now and then and only want to serve food made from fresh ingredients when they are at their best. The food was simply put, very good. The bread was fresh (home made every day), and went great with the nice olive oil. We got an amuse of goat cheese and sweet onions, which was delicious. The rest of the menu was just as good. Coquilles st Jacques (or scallops I think it is in English) with a mix of artichokes and herbs were wonderful, the pasta (home made gnocchi with lobster) was very nice and the turbot I had for main was just delicious. Very pure and simple, perfectly prepared. Other people had Jugged Hare (made of beef) with polenta prepared in an Italian way. A wonderful winter dish, full of taste and very fulfilling. Deserts were equally great. The chocolate cake (made of pure chocolate ofcourse!) was one of the best I ever had, and the lemon pie was sweet with a bit of sour and had a crunchy bite. Oh and I'd almost forget the cheese we had with a very good sweet wine the waiter convinced us to taste, which was much better the the port we originally wanted. Yumm! A 3 course meal costs 37,50, 4 course 43,50, 5 courses 49,50. Well worth the money!

If you you are of the opinion that the amount of Italians frequenting a place is the best…read moremeasurement of authenticity, Uliveto should be your go-to destination for real Italian food. And in fact it is. Unbothered by hipsterism, yet undoubtedly modern, this little corner shop will resemble any busy tratoria that you will find in Bologna, Verona or Florance, but with a design twist. Featuring a range of authenthic Italian dishes, Uliveto is in somewhere in between a sandwich shop (freshly made), take-away tratoria (daily made), lunch place (they warm up the take-away and) a shop (they have some really nice wines and foods). They'll serve you real espresso (don't expect filtered coffee here) and/ or wine during for lunch along side a number of Italian juices. I used to work close to this place and frequent it quite a lot. Although the sandwiches are good, my favourite is in fact the warmed up take-away food with a nice glass of wine (like the italians do). Although the take-away menu changes regularily, there will almost always he a veal and a chicken dish somewhere there, as well as a frittata or vegetarian option. Also nice is the home-made tiramisu (or sugar brick, as I like to call it), which tastes owerwhelming and delicious if you have the stomach for it (and not too many new-years resolutions). Sharing is also an option:-). Additionaly (and expectadly), they also have a very decent collection of cold-cut meats which is great for the afternoon snack to be shared with a nice glass of Chianti (and fava-beans;-)). Service is also very Italian (some of which also of Italian origin), meaning that you'll probably have to the register every time you want to order something. In fact the only thing not authentic about this place are its prices, as it doesn't come cheap. But in the end, what does come cheap at such a great location in the center of town.
