A Volo in Haarlemmerbuurt

The best vibe, food, prices, everything!!!

Place is very very nice and beautiful place very authentic and nice it’s my favorite Italian place in Amsterdam

An authentic place. If you close your eyes, you can almost think you're in Naples and forget that it's cold and rainy outside. The food is fast and good, and the prices are affordable, nothing like the armed robbery that is Amsterdam. Here you'll eat a real pizza, not a bread with stuff in it. And if you're looking for a niche for Italians settled in the Venice of the North, this is your place. Gennaro is the best cook, entertainer, mayor, and shift partner—what's essentially a Neapolitan.

El mejor panini y el personal muy amable. . . El Chef es un tipo muy agradable, auténtica experiencia italiana. Entramos con ganas de pasta... Nos convenció de probar su comida y ahora queremos volver!

Very tasty pizza slices! Excellent dough! Very good espresso. Second time there for lunch and was not disappointed. I would come again. The playlist was fun.

My favorite Italian in Amsterdam. Delicious pizza slices and paninis! A cozy, noisy Italian atmosphere hangs there because many Italians come here too.

I usually do not write many reviews, but I’d like to make an exception for A’Volo. Ever since my arrival at Haarlemmerdijk back during Covid-19, I have been a regular visitor at this warm Neapolitan delicacy. At the first glance, the staff doesn’t look too tolerant, but they definitely are! The same passion you’d find when SSC Napoli win the league title again, the same energy can be traced back in to their food and beverages. Espresso’s, deli sandwiches (5,50-8,00€, depending on extra toppings), pizza slices (avg €3,50), whole pizza’s (starting from 9€), cannoli. It doesn’t really matter whether you’ve eaten already. Your senses immediately tell you to that you should eat as soon as you are in range of the store. To highlight, I would definitely recommend Panini Maradona(💙) or Diavola on an empty stomach. However, a pizza slice with margherita or potatoes (pizza con Patate) will always do. I came to understand that A Volo means something like: “I am late for work, gimme a cup of coffee, a volo!” However, the establishment never feels rushed to me. Aside from the delicious food, the warm atmosphere, the conversations, and the good playlist makes you feel relaxed after a rough week.

Absolutely amazing 👏 Food is excellent, as well as the service and the prices. I highly recommend

Best sandwiches in Amsterdam! Instead of ordering something from the menu, let them create something for you. It wil be the best!

Gennaro is truly one of the best hosts and Italian chefs in Amsterdam. So hospitable and you can truly taste the authentic flavours and high-quality ingredients with affordable prices. One of my favourite spots in Amsterdam.

It is crazy how good the food and coffee is! The best artisan panini you can have. I still also dream about veal with tuna sauce. I am going to keep coming back for the delicious food! 😋 the owner/chef is an artist by the way, stylish, creative, talented and truly a host that makes you feel most welcome. Thank you Gennaro for creating A Volo!

My favorite spot in Amsterdam!! Love

Great pizzas, delicious coffee, and good Mediterranean vibes with the owner/chef and the waitress. Big

AMAZING!!!!! The food,the service,the atmosphere You can taste the love in the food ❤️

Solid mortadella sandwich but nothing crazy

The best napolitan pizza, (maradonna) sandwich and canolo i've ever eat. Chief is also very kind. A must go!

Definitely one of the best spots in town 🎉 recommend to everyone

Great place to eat Italian food and to feel at home with good traditional Neapolitan music and a fantastic staff

This gem was a word-of-mouth recommendation, and I was still pleasantly surprised by what I walked into! A humble eatery with exceptional food and a lively spirit (akin to a big, warm, fun family gathering) — it’s simply unmatched and a staple in my Amsterdam books, and not just because a lovely stranger picked up my tab. Thanks, Gennaro! See you soon!

What great sandwiches and great people. I'm a fan!

A wonderful neighborhood spot for a tasty panini, slice of pizza or shot of Italian espresso. All of their ingredients are high quality (prosciutto, burrata, rucola etc.) and their pistachio cannolis are the best. Everyone behind the counter is friendly and warm and it’s always a cozy vibe inside! I love coming here.

What a hidden gem, please go here. Order everything. Enjoy!

The best panini I never ever had and they make you feel comfortable and home

Feeling at home thanks to the hospitality and good food Gennaro the owner, an exquisite person... if you find yourself in Amsterdam quickly it's the right place to breathe the air of home..

My favourite Italian deli in Amsterdam: laid back, friendly staff and super delicious food.

Had lunch with my son. Had a really good sandwich bologna and my son a pizza margarita. While it was quite busy we were helped fast and she really tried to make us feel at home. Definitely a place to get back to.

My daughter and I arrived around 11:40, and unfortunately, there was no ready-made pizza or the person who usually makes it. However, upon seeing my child, a lovely woman who worked there kindly offered to make a mini pizza just for her. It was incredibly touching, and the pizza turned out wonderful—very delicious.

Best Italian experience in Amsterdam

Great service the team is super nice and welcoming. Everyone has a smile and when you leave you usually have one too. I go every Monday for work lunch and it makes my Monday better. Usually get 3 (big) slices of pizza for €3 each

Buongiornoooo get the mortadella sandwich with pistachio cream.

Genuinely best sandwich I’ve had in my life

Small shop, great service (very friendly and genuine) and very tasty panini! The owner made one for me that is not on the menu. Awesome (:

Small italian sandwich bar with some of the best italian sandwiches you’ll get in Amsterdam!

Best Panini I have had in a long time. You can tell they love food. High quality ingredients, friendly people. my new favourite place.

The best for panini, the owners are awesome as well.

Best Italian cafe where you can try the real taste of Italian food,and also the real Italian coffee. Genny and his team are amazing guys they will offer a nice and super friendly service, highly recommended!

Great food and coffee! It is a small place with not a lot of staff, so service can take a while, don't go here in a hurry

Lovely and smiling personnel, very good prices, and an enjoyable atmosphere inside :)

Really delicious, the food is excellent and the people who work there are super nice, you can tell they are Italian

Best panini in the neighbourhood (maybe in town!) only made better by the outstanding service and superb atmosphere. The staff are the nicest and cutest people ever, the experience is super authentic and 10/10

True Neapolitan flavors! Recommended

July 2024 Real Italian place. Don't be fooled with the front when you walk by. They say they have the best espresso in town and it is definitely in the top 5 for me. They taste their coffee before starting the day ... love that. They have quite a nice menu for such a small place. Extremely friendly, hospitality a 10 with a perfect atmosphere. Home made focaccia bread with the favourite Italian products on it. Pat them a visit

to pay 3.50 for a coffee, bit ridiculous no?

One of the best Italian panini/small food places I’ve been.

"Home" through the eyes of my daughters.

home-baked Italian sandwiches ❤️

Real Italian food by real Italian people. Best pizza in town, hands down. But do have a look at their other offerings! :)

You do not want to pass this place!

Even though we arrived 10 minutes before closing time, we managed to eat an amazing potato pizza and a wonderful sandwich called Maradona. Maradona lives in this place and his Gods' hand buys coffee to his loyal fans... Great family atmosphere, a great man runs this place... It was pure pleasure. Maradona forever alive! 🌞 El Pibe de Oro 🩵🩵🇬🇹🇮🇹🇵🇱

Total coincidence and discovered by chance. Tiramisu and pizza was amazing. No need to tell about the kindness of the staff, you'll see if you visit. What a cozy place.

Nice place, real Italian, pizza is great and reasonably priced, can buy by the slice. Good beer. F Super friendly atmosphere and people

Fast friendly service. You are suddenly in Napoli! Had the best vegan panini I've had in a long time.

A little piece of Italy in Amsterdam. The foccacias were delicious and the staff were super friendly.

Genuine little italian place, food is great and authentic, really like the atmosphere

I'll gess the best pizza in amsterdam. Very friendly and nice service. Just like 2 tables to sit and a smal bar, but the pizza is worth it.

A really authentic Italian place. Coffee and tiramisu is great, and so are the pizzas!

Au top ! Une foccaccia incroyable ! Sourire, super service, des produits délicieux et un magnifique café ☕️ 😋

Fantastic coffee, excellent food and amazing service and ambiance. What a place! Grazie mille🙏🏼❤️

Love love love love it!! Thank you Gennaro, your music, taste of your food, your energy all was amazing. Great ambience you should try sandwiches all of them delicious. 😚👌

Best food I’ve had in a long time. In love with this place

DE-LI-CIOUS!! I tried one of their focaccia and followed their suggested toppings and my mouth is still watering! Super nice and generous, I felt like home! I will definitely hit this place up again!

Ask for the best panini in the Netherlands (maybe even the world) and you will get it

Ottimo servizio, veramente molto amichevole e gentile, prodotti di qualità e specialità che trovi solo in Italia,per quanto riguarda il caffè.....il migliore che trovi in città

There is no place like Avolo! Delicious sandwiches, tasty espresso and good vibes… Gennaro makes you feel like you‘re at home ❤️

Piccolo locale gestito da italiani ad Amsterdam da tempo. Ideale per una breve sosta, un caffè o una birretta fresca e per la pizza preparata ad hoc da Gennaro. Personale sempre sorridente (Francesca un amore!!) e pronto a fare due chiacchiere. Internamente anche un piccolo “museo” per chi ha Napoli e il Napoli nel cuore!

In pieno centro ad Amsterdam un piccolo locale dal cuore italiano! Offrono prodotti tipici italiani, caffetteria e bar. Si può anche mangiare la pizza. Super la gestione di Francesca e Gennaro: giovani, gentilissimi e sempre sorridenti! Tappa obbligatoria!

You step into 🇮🇹 Italy when you come here. Great food. Good coffee, great people! Love it!

Rommelig. Stapeltje ongeopende overheidsenveloppen op de toonbank.

My favourite place in the Neighbourhood! Love the vibe and the energy the local has , the fun and friendly staff, best coffee in town. Delicious food!!

Door mijn zoons meegenomen en de meest heerlijke broodjes gegeten! Echt Italiaans en super ongedwongen en vriendelijk! Aanrader!

Heel lekkere authentieke Italiaanse paninis voor een goede prijs.

Magic combo: authentic Italian food & incredible people working there that know how to make you feel home. Love A Volo 🤍

It always feels like I'm stepping into an italian movie when I eat here - the warm vibe, the excellent food, the music, the staff, its like a mini-holiday :)

If you look for the real Italian experience in Amsterdam, that's the place to be. Nice atmosphere, amazing food and the best espresso in town.

Zéér lekker stuk gevulde focaccia gegeten, gemaakt zoals alleen de echte Italianen kunnen. Grazie!

Super gezellig en HEERLIJK eten! Leuke mensen en een chille sfeer. Super nice and AMAZING food! Great people and a really chill vibe.

Delicious Italian type of food. Just Amazing.

Ta pizza jest zajebista. Pozdrawiam

Good sandwiches with fresh bread made by them. Perfect for a quick Italian snack.

Super lekkere broodjes, grote cappuccino, en voor Adam prima prijzen!

The food, the coffee and THE VIBE 🤌🏽🤌🏽🤌🏽✨ this is THE place!!

5 stelle perché non se ne possono dare 6. In una recensione avevo letto "un pezzo di Napoli ad Amsterdam" aveva perfettamente ragione! Pizza buonissima, clima "italiano" e pure caffè offerto dalla casa alla fine!

Esperienza molto interessante. Da ritornarci.

Exquisitos paninis con productos frescos y elaborados delante tuyo. Muy buena atención y ambiente. Súper recomendado!

Really nice atmosphere and great food!

Top Quality panini, coffee and tiramisu!! True Italian flavors. The staff is very friendly. If you want to feel that you are in Italy for a bit, drop by at this place!

Se potessi, metterei molto più di 5 stelle! Un pezzo di NAPOLI ad Amsterdam, la fantasia e le idee di Gennaro, abbinata ad una qualità altissima dei prodotti , fanno di questo posto un gioiello del centro ! Complimenti per i gusti musicali che accompagnano questi piacevolissimi momenti !

Je n'ai jamais mangé quelques choses d'aussi bon durant mes 6 voyages en Italie, incroyable de pouvoir manger aussi bien et de pouvoir boire une bière Sarde à Amsterdam 😍🤌

Ein sehr spannender Laden, Mit super Chef und freundlichem Personal. Macht einfach Spaß .

Went there, we tried pizza and their homemade tiramisu, all very delicious. The very friendly pizzaiolo advice the pizza to choose, great amazing outcome as our pizza were delicious. Definitely recommended to have some great food, drink and time with a friendly Italian team.

Adoro questo luogo.. Vado sempre quando voglio una cosa italiana! Però anche devo dire, quando Napoli ti manca, e vai qui... Ti senti come ti saresti in Napoli.. La gente sono molto gentile e il cibo è buonissimo. Poi il caffè è perfetto.. Penso che è il mio posto Italiano preferito in Amsterdam :) Vi consiglio tutti di venire qua... Specialmente se sei Italiano...

No te pierdas este pequeño restaurante italiano! Tienen comida italiana increíble, recién preparada con temperamento italiano. Precios razonables y un personal italiano muy amable y ruidoso. Se siente como Italia, sabe como Italia!
