De Waard van Napels, Dokkum in Dokkum

The atmosphere and flavors of Italy, far from home. After many days of vacation, we felt the urge to have pasta and pizza. Both choices were perfect!!! Authentic food and flavors. Perfectly cooked pasta. Neapolitan pizza equally well-crafted. And to top it all off, the kindness and professionalism of the owner. Keep it up, we absolutely recommend it!!!

What a fantastic evening at De Waard van Napels! The three-course meal with paired wines was simply perfect. Authentic Italian flavors, with the surprising highlight being the delicious Frisian cheese platter. The owner is a wonderful, passionate man who made the evening truly unforgettable. Highly recommended!

The best pizzas in the Netherlands!!! MUST GO

Absolutely delightful. Beautiful restaurant, great atmosphere, hospitable and friendly, and delicious food. Eel, sea bass, and lamb, all incredibly tasty. Definitely worth a return visit.

It's a nice place. Friendly staff. The wait for the food is quite long. We both ordered steak. We got a portion to share, which is actually a bit small for one person.

Small Italian restaurant with great food, not exactly cheap but decent. Great wine and very friendly service.

Een geweldige beleving. We zijn hier voor de de lunch geweest en hebben genoten van het drie-gangen surprise menu. Surprise is misschien nog een iets te laat dunkende term want de verrassing was steeds weer majestueus. De gerechten waren ieder een overweldigende smaak explosie van mediterrane smaken. Elke gang werd gecomplementeerd met een weloverwogen gekozen wijn. Om de beleving aan te vullen was de bediening meer dan probaat. Met schwung, finesse en kennis werd iedere gang geserveerd. Voeg hier aan toe een meer dan aangename sfeer van de gelegenheid en de beleving is hiermee naar mijn mening compleet en adequaat beschreven. A must eat in Dokkum.

As I told the owner myself, the atmosphere and service are excellent. But the pizza, while delicious, could use a bit more toppings. I think you'd see more people returning then. But maybe the goal isn't to have too many pizza eaters. I'm curious about the rest of the menu, though, because it looked promising. So they'll definitely see me back.

Delicious food, fresh ingredients, homemade bread. The staff is friendly and attentive. Highly recommended!

A small restaurant with a limited menu, but that doesn't make it any less special! The saying "less is more" certainly applies to De Waard van Napels. The pizzas are incredibly tasty and the wine selection is excellent. And to top it all off, the service is absolutely top-notch.

We waited about 50 minutes for a small, not-so-crispy pizza for €16.50. The portion size wasn't big enough to fill us up. However, the service was so poor that even after half an hour of constantly waving to the waiter, he didn't come to our table, even though we had actually requested a late-night order. Unfortunately, the value for money is completely out of this world. The service and the kitchen seem to be massively understaffed.

The seating here is great, and they're very friendly. The food was disappointing. We ordered a three-course vegetarian surprise menu, but the portions were truly tiny, and we had to wait forever for it. As a main course, a small piece of braised red cabbage with a mushroom on top?! While it was hand-picked near Dokkum, we still went home hungry. The service was also a bit disappointing. The seven of us were only given six wine glasses and had to ask three times for the seventh. One of us has diabetes and always has to inject insulin fifteen minutes before eating. Because he hadn't anticipated it would take so long and nearly fainted, we urgently asked twice for a small piece of bread, but that also took another fifteen minutes. I won't be going back.

Top restaurant! Good wines and a super delicious surprise menu.

Everything perfect and rare in this place

Top eten en top bediening. Gezellige plek en echt heel goed eten. Italiaanse keuken met een Friese twist wat wil je nog meer.

Super mooie ervaring! Heerlijke gerechtjes geserveerd door Matthia! Een hele avond combi van lekkere wijnen en heerlijk eten!

Heerlijk menu gegeten 4 gangen. Buiten op terras begonnen in de zon en heerlijk geëindigd binnen. De gerechten zijn tot in de puntjes afgewerkt en de smaken kloppen. Nederlandse ingrediënten met een Italiaanse toets. Bediening super vriendelijk van trotse Napolitanen. Wijn per glas ook van top kwaliteit!

Cozy restaurant but a bit more expensive

Mooie gezellige sfeer in dezaak. Heerlijk eten, prima bediening, music keuze kan je betwisten , maar klonk gezellig ,liefde voor het vak,

What a fantastic restaurant. People with passion and delicious food. A 10!

Fancy some good Italian food and made a reservation. After entering, they make you walk all the way to the back. A table was reserved for us outside at the side. We walked all the way to the front again, to the side, to find out that there was also a door there. Ordered the mussels with bread board and a salami pizza. The mussels were tasty, the butter with the bread board was already half melted and since it was warm, it became liquid in no time. The salami pizza was a big disappointment. Thick crust, salami was transparent, little tomato sauce, lots of cheese and soaked in olive oil. A soggy, tasteless pizza. I ate a little and left the rest. The owner offered a cup of coffee as an apology, but we didn't feel like it anymore.

Nice cozy place for food lovers. We had a nice dinner with wonderful wines.

Waited two hours for a pizza despite very few guests

If you have a lot of time and aren't starving, then yes.

It was delicious. Thanks E and L d' Emelio

Heerlijke avond in Dokkum. We gingen voor het verrassingsmenu. Wat een mooie combinatie tussen streekproducten (o.a. scheermesjes van de wadden) met Italiaanse smaken. Heerlijke bijpassende wijnen, met Italiaanse flair uitgeschonken. Daarbij ook nog het vriendelijke personeel en gastheerschap. Voor ons zeker een reden om nog eens naar Dokkum te gaan. Gratie mille!

Afgelopen weekend een spontaan samenzijn met vrienden. Wat begon met even op het terras zitten in de zon, eindigde in een heerlijke diner buiten. De eigenaar weet je te verrassen met lokale producten. Heerlijk bereidde oesters, fijne tussendoortjes, en super mals bereid vlees. In dat kleine straatje voelde het echt even alsof we in klein Italie waren met verfijnde smaken.

Top restaurant!! Heerlijk eten, fijne bediening en gezellige bediening. Advies en proeven van wijn. Fijn advies over gerechten, zonder druk!

We did not have our evening at this restaurant. Upon entering, our expectations were high - it is a nice place and we were welcomed friendly. We saw oysters on the menu as a starter and we both wanted to order this. Unfortunately, the oysters were sold out. Then I ordered mussels with cheese sauce and my girlfriend ordered vitello tomato. The mussels were very tasty, the sauce too. I only missed some bread to eat the sauce with and I asked the service to serve bread with the main course. As a main course I wanted to order the cod, but that was also not available. As an alternative I was offered gurnard. My girlfriend ordered an intermediate course - the canneloni. The photo is of these dishes. The white wine I got was very tasty. When the dishes arrived we immediately noticed that the portions were really very small and the food was very Spartan. I got a small piece of fillet with a slice of pancetta on it and underneath a cabbage leaf, without sauce, no side dish, potatoes or anything like that. See photo. The fish was cooked a bit too long and not super fresh. And the canelloni, that was 1, also without sauce. A piece of dough with some meat in it. The promised bread unfortunately did not arrive. We were both still quite hungry so we ordered a pizza diavolo to eat together. In the meantime, two plates were placed at the table next to us with 3 enormous pieces of lamb chops on each plate. I thought, wtf, I love lamb chops, that was not on the menu at all, and those portions looked good. When I asked, it turned out that the chops were part of the surprise menu. So we missed that. The pizza was tasty but quite blackened on the side. I asked about a dessert but there were only options with ice cream and cheese. No classic Italian desserts like pannacotta. We were offered a coffee on the house and that was ok. We then paid and left.

Nice view, nice staff... Food wasn't my thing... and too expensive

in een woord geweldig heerlijk gegeten , en prima bediening door Salvatore en de kok michael bedankt we komen zeker terug lucia en Enrico D'Emilio uit de Falom

Het eten was ronduit fantastisch. De pizza’s worden bereid in een traditionele houtoven en dat proef je direct: een krokante bodem, verse ingrediënten en perfect op smaak. Ook de pasta’s waren een schot in de roos – huisgemaakt, rijk gevuld en vol Italiaanse passie. Aanrader: de tagliatelle met truffelroomsaus! De bediening was vriendelijk, attent en had duidelijk kennis van zaken. We kregen goede wijnsuggesties die perfect bij de gerechten pasten. Alles verliep relaxed en toch efficiënt – precies wat je wilt tijdens een avondje uit eten. De Waard van Napels voor wie echt van de Italiaanse keuken houdt. Wij komen zeker terug!

Fantastic meal, wine and service! We happened upon this place on a Sunday after a long bike ride. They spoke English and helped us with the menu and our options. We ordered oysters, bread (get the bread!!), and a cheese plate. I ordered an intermediate plate for my main course and my husband got a pizza. Everything was absolutely fantastic. The wine we ordered was delicious and the server came out to explain how the producer made the wine to make it so aromatic. Overall 10/10. Best meal we’ve had in the Netherlands so far and would go back if we were staying longer!

Food was good, no pasta as a main course. Small portions, little choice.

Surprising restaurant. Delicious food, original dishes, delicious flavors. This is a must for people who want to eat something other than the traditional Italian menu. Highly recommended.

Real Italian cuisine with Dutch/Frisian elements. Such as gnocchi with kale or oysters from the mudflats. Everything very tasty; surprise dessert is highly recommended! See photo

Super sweet staff in this small village... a beautiful restaurant where you can eat in peace... I came to Dolkum for a nice afternoon and the staff here takes all the time to make your day a party 🙏

Heerlijke smaakvolle gerechten. Het is geen uitgebreide menukaart. Vriendelijke bediening. Een aanrader mocht je in Dokkum zijn.

Amazing authentic Italian food experience!! They took a very special care of their beer selection, and surprised us with their own wonderful brew. Pizza was great and customer service topped the entire experience. Thank you!!!

The pizza that I ate here was the best I've had in a long time, a simple margherita, but an amazing taste. This makes it all the more disappointing that the rest of the restaurant experience just wasn't on point. To start of there were wait times like you couldn't believe. The air was also not fresh at all, like breathing in ash. I also believe the waiters were not paying much attention, as we wanted to get desserts but couldn't get them to our table, we eventually gave up and just asked for the check. This place can definitely be improved.

Sehr stilvolles, gemütliches Restaurant. Echte Kerzen sorgen für eine schöne Atmosphäre. Sehr freundlicher Chef und sehr freundlicher Service! Die Menükarte bitte besondere Gerichte. Es ist aber für jeden was dabei. Das Essen war hervorragend, 1x Pizza Margherita (besonders lecker und gut vertragen!), und 1x Risotto 👍🏼. Auch der Wein war sehr gut! das abschließende Dessert hat den Sbend perfekt abgerundet. Beim nächsten Mal in Dokkum sicherlich wieder zu de Waard van Napels!

Had dinner tonight at De Waard van Naples. We opted for a starter, intermediate course, main course and dessert. Our Italian host was a friendly man with a good dose of charm and a sense of humor. When asked if he had a suitable wine, he came up with a bottle that was not even on the menu. So exclusive stuff. Whether he got it from a secret cellar or secretly from his own pantry at home remained unclear, but it was certainly tasty. The food was fantastic, although we had plenty of time to look forward to it. Very long. So long that we wondered if they might have a secret sous chef in Italy who had to make everything fresh and have it delivered by Vespa. Anyway, once the food was on the table, it was more than worth the wait. Nice surprise: the chef personally came by to check whether everything was to your liking. Maybe he wanted to see if we were still alive after the wait, or just to be proud of his creations. Anyway, nice gesture. The only real downside of the evening? The time between courses. But hey, if you don't have to go anywhere and enjoy good company, a mysterious wine and a host with Italian flair, it's actually not that bad at all.

The atmosphere is very cozy, and the decor is stylish and inviting. The surprise menu was highly recommended – each course was a wonderful surprise with beautiful flavors and beautiful presentation. The service was friendly and attentive, which completed the experience. We will definitely come back here!

Fantastic food, everything great!! Highly recommended for dietary needs, we make every effort to adapt the menu. Cheers!!!

Spontaneously walked in. Positively surprised! The restaurant has a nice atmosphere and very tasty food.

Erg lekker gegeten bij de waard van napels. Nu voor de 3e keer wezen eten en elke keer weer een stapje beter! Ik kom hier graag voor een puur en lekker diner! Personeel ook top

Dit is géén gewone pizzatent, dit is een fijne plek met eerlijk eten, waar je de passie van de chef en sous-chef kunt smaken. Ga er gewoon een avondje genieten. Wij aten perfecte pizza en dronken lekkere rode wijn; we kwamen vrij laat op een weekavond maar werden hartelijk verwelkomd (geen evidentie in Dokkum!) en tot het einde verwend.

Geluncht, maar wat een heerlijke smaken,.patat bravas met verse daslook crème als amuse , smaakvolle gerechten en belachelijk goed Napolitaanse pizza

Very tasty food. One of the few restaurants in Dokkum where you can also have an extensive lunch in the afternoon. The eggplant was sublime, the gnocchis with langoustines original. The service is very friendly with good wine advice. An address to remember and come back to!

Top bediening, lekker eten, en mooie sfeer! Aanrader voor iedereen dat wil lekker eten en goede wijnen drinken. Wij komen zeker terug.

If the cook puts our food on the table and I say thank you and say nothing at all, it is not very friendly

Fantastisch lekker eten! We hebben ons laten verrassen door de chef-kok, echt een beleving! Daarnaast zijn de bijpassende wijnen erg goed! 🙏🏻

Delicious food, very friendly waiter with a passion for the profession. Food beyond expectations!

Als familie hebben wij de traditie ieder jaar in januari naar Dokkum te gaan en dan staat De Waard van Napels áltijd op het programma. Het warme ontvangst, een klein stukje Italië in Friesland, heerlijk eten, fijne service: echt niet te missen als je in Dokkum bent. Afgelopen januari diner én pizza de dag erna voor de lunch. Voor mensen die in Italië gewoond hebben, brengt het een gevoel van ‘thuis’.

I had a wonderful dining experience at De Waard van Napels back in November. From the moment I walked in, I was struck by the warm and welcoming atmosphere. It felt like the perfect cozy spot to enjoy a good meal. The food was fantastic! Every dish I tried was packed with flavor and made with fresh ingredients. It really felt like I was enjoying a taste of Italy right there in Dokkum. But what made the evening truly special was the service. The staff were incredibly friendly, and our waiter, who was Italian, really stood out. He was not only attentive but also shared some great suggestions that made our meal even better. His passion for the food was evident, and it added a nice touch to the whole experience. I can’t recommend De Waard van Napels enough! If you’re looking for delicious Italian food and a friendly atmosphere, this is the place to go. I’m already looking forward to my next visit!

We had a fantastic experience at this restaurant! The food was delicious, with fresh ingredients and beautifully presented dishes. The staff was incredibly friendly and attentive, making sure we had everything we needed. The atmosphere was cozy and welcoming, perfect for a relaxed meal. Highly recommended

Een bijzonder gezellige avond gehad. De combinatie van heerlijke, verfijnde gerechten en vriendelijke bediening maakt dat wij hier zeker terug komen! Nogmaals bedankt.

Recently ate here with partner. Surprisingly interesting menu that combines traditional Italian with Frisian/Dutch influences. Friendly staff and nice ambiance. Overall we enjoyed it very much and had a delicious meal.

Very nice experience. Very hospitable. We had a 5 course menu with a wine arrangement. Very tasty meal. Nice twist between Italian and Frisian. Really creative and very tasty. Wine pairing made it complete and was served by a sympathetic Italian-Dutch sommelier. Had a wonderful evening.

Heerlijk eten, goede bijpassende wijnen en fijne bediening. Mooie combinatie van Italiaanse gerechten met een Fryske twist

Nu al een paar keer heerlijk gegeten bij dit restaurant. Een verademing om niet alleen pizza en pasta, die overigens heerlijk zijn, te kunnen eten, maar ook hele andere gerechten. Tot nu toe stuk voor stuk super lekker! En Salvatore als gastheer maakt dat je je welkom voelt. Top!

Het is een mooie open zaak waar voldoende open ruimte is. De ontvangst was hartelijk en we hebben voor het raam gegeten. Het eten was verrassend en de service was goed. We hebben mooie wijnen gedronken. Toch een paar puntjes van orde: Als je een voorgerecht brengt, zorg dan dat de wijn geschonken is , we waren nog aan ons aperitief bezig....dat is gewoonweg slordig. Communiceer in ieder geval. Dat bleef nu achterwege. Als je warm vers brood serveert zorg dan dat het gaar is...... Tevens stond de bediening te eten bij de keuken. Ik stoorde mij daaraan. Als je iets wilt proeven/eten doe dat dan niet in het zicht van de gasten. Helemaal in zo'n open bedrijf, ziet de gast alles.......ook dat je na het roken weer binnenkomt met je jas aan. That's-a-no-go. Een bedrijf met veel potentie, absoluut. Wij gingen er met een goed gevoel vandaan in ieder geval!

Wij volgen deze kok al jaren. Blij hem weer gevonden te hebben. Was weer als vanouds. Heerlijk gegeten en perfecte wijnen erbij gezocht door Salvatore. Deze kok en sommelier werken al vele jaren samen. Wij zijn nog nooit teleurgesteld. Ook onze vrienden die hier nu voor het eerst van de gerechten van deze kok konden proeven hebben enorm genoten. Kortom, een geweldige avond. Heerlijk eten en drinken. Sfeervol restaurant, leuke bediening. Is zeer de moeite waard.

Heerlijk gegeten , mooi restaurant. Goede nette gastheer. Italiaans friese keuken, geweldige mix van gerechten en smaak. We komen hier zeker weer.

Ate here for our 40th wedding anniversary. Very hospitable and friendly reception. And then the food...! I haven't had such a delicious meal in a long time. Special combination of Italian and Frisian cuisine. Also an excellent wine range. Thanks...!

Long waiting time. Guests who arrived after us were served more quickly. Pizza with a lot of edges and very soft, bruschetta was tasty, but €20 for 6 small slices was already steep.

Enjoyed a delicious meal, friendly/hospitable service and an authentic concept in the form of a mix between Italian and Frisian. My partner and I both had the pasta with veal medallion and a pizza as a main course. Both dishes were of high quality and very tasty. We will definitely come back again.

Very friendly staff and really great food! Doing!!!

Yesterday we enjoyed a wonderful evening. Michael's dishes were fantastic and Salvatore provided great attention throughout the evening. The combination of fine dining and pizza for the children created a relaxed and perfect atmosphere.

We are a British couple living in France and staying with friends living near Dokkum. As food lovers we were delighted to find this Italian/Dutch fusion restaurant. A great welcome in simple elegant surroundings with an interesting menu concept. On a Sunday night the restaurant was full. The comfy chairs were most appreciated! We had the 4 course selection with wine pairings and the food looked beautiful. I’m happy to say the taste lived up to the appearance! Hard to choose a preferred dish but the main course of pink steak slices artfully arranged was stunning. Well chosen wines to accompany with good explanations. Service was friendly and prompt. The price we judged to be good value for a Michelin bib. Next time in Dokkum we will be there!

Food fine but very long waiting times. Bread not cooked and then after a very long time whether it could perhaps be put back in the oven, new bread again after a very long wait. Then double the bill! Cheese board with 4 tiny pieces of cheese, delicious, but 16 €!? Asked for a carafe of water but got 2 glasses and then waited and waited but no water. In short, we won't be back after this first time.

Had a delicious 4 course menu with a very good host. Good wines, and every course was enjoyable. We were also recommended a special wine that matched the meat. I thought the interior looked less refined than the 4-course dinner, but don't let that fool you.

We stumbled upon this restaurant at lunchtime. It was fairly empty, which is such a shame, but we were not deterred. The owner was so friendly, the food was amazing. It is the genuine Italian experience, he imports his tomatoes from Naples.

Delicious Italian food with a nice twist. Super friendly service. Recommended if you like good food and are in Dokkum.

Het verrassingsmenu was een ware tongstreling, onverwachte combinatie van smaken en gecombineerd met het enthousiasme van het team was dit voor ons een absolute aanrader.

Food not special but very expensive. Had to wait a very long time.

Es war wie immer ein Erlebnis,! Das Überraschungsmenü mit passender Weinbegleitung haben wir sehr genossen. Küchenchef Mike hat sich voll ins Zeug gelegt, aber auch seine Jungs sm Abend vorher haben bereits ihre Sache sehr gut gemacht und und die gelungenen Pizzen serviert. Vielen Dank für die schöne Zeit auch an den Service.

Simple but very well seasoned pizzas with crispy pizza dough. Nice service, comfortable seating outside on a side street.

Vriendelijke bediening, royale glazen wijn. Helaas Buratta van supermarkt kwaliteit. Helaas lamsvlees met zeer sterke smaak zodat het waarschijnlijk schapenvlees was. Als met al te hoge prijzen voor deze kwaliteit.

Surprisingly good! 5 course meal with partner. She doesn't like lobster, but she loved the dish with lobster, snow peas and pasta. Course next was a pasta with truffle and filled with artichoke. My girlfriend doesn't like truffles and even here they haven't been able to change that. I do: so twice this entree for me. Then fries pasture beef. More pronounced taste than the previous courses but less surprising. Very delicious. Two appetizers beforehand were also wonderful. Service top notch. The most special thing is that you can dine here all evening long, while people also enjoy a pizza come and eat. As far as I'm concerned, no objection. Recommended!

Nice restaurant that I already knew from Leeuwarden. The menu is a lot more limited. We ordered pizzas, cannelloni and parmigiana. Good food and good taste. The pizzas are of course Neapolitan style. The service was personal, what helped was that we could use our Italian.

We had a delicious meal here yesterday. The pizzas are truly Italian and the bread is wonderfully fresh in advance. We will be back soon!

Special Italian restaurant. Next level in terms of quality of food and service. Highly recommended. Check for yourself whether the pricing suits your wallet.

Delicious food, good wine, nice atmosphere, friendly service!

Toch een beetje een tegenvaller gezien de andere recensies. Vriendelijke bediening, heerlijk voorgerecht (mosselen met een gorgonzolasaus), heel lekkere hoofdgerechten (zeebaarsje met gnocchi/lam brisket) en dessert (1/2 bombe).Maar... het aperitief werd pas aangeboden na de bestelling, voor ons tweede drankje moesten we vragen, de hoofdgerechten waren beslist onvoldoende wat betreft hoeveelheid. Iets meer groenten/pasta, een stukje stokbrood had wonderen gedaan. Voor 7.5 kun je drie sneeën brood bestellen. Na 120+ te hebben afgetikt konden we later nog naar de snackbar.

This week I was introduced to this restaurant in Dokkum for the first time. The idea of ​​combining Italian cuisine with Frisian influences is fun and original, but in our opinion the concept does not work well. There is a menu with 'small bites', entrees, main courses and desserts. It is recommended to order 3 to 4 dishes per person for a complete meal. With prices of at least 16 euros per dish, you expect that you will get sufficient and above-average tasty food for 50 to 60 euros per person. That was disappointing. The food itself is tasty but the portions are very small. In addition, it also took a very long time before it was served (there was only 1 waiter). The ambiance in the restaurant itself is fine, but you mainly come there to eat. All in all, no satisfied feeling afterwards. Unfortunately, this is not something we can repeat in this way.

Charred pizza Last night a friend of mine and I had dinner here. We ordered the main course “Sea bass with gnochetti and summer vegetables” (€ 28.50) and “Pizza salami” (€ 16.50) respectively. The pizza was served with flair by the charming Italian host. Only the pizza was charred, so black. My comment on this charred pizza was that it was the way it should be, that this was the authentic method of preparation and that it was also eaten that way in Italy. Both my friend and I, both 60+, have extensive restaurant experience, including in Italy, but we had never experienced such a poor product and the justification for it. When clearing the table, I once again expressed my dissatisfaction with the way things were going. Besides being black, this pizza was also tough. But according to our host, that's just how it should be. It was justifying what went wrong in the kitchen. The sea bass dish, a main course after all, was on the meager side, looking more like a starter; We expected some more gnochetti and especially summer vegetables for this price of € 28.50. We have also made this known. We got the idea that the clientele of this establishment mainly consists of passers-by, tourists who walk in more or less by chance. But this restaurant apparently did not consider a local Frisian with an extensive network.

Excellent Italian food and wonderful wine. Anyone expecting a simple pizzeria is wrong here - this is Italian cuisine.

Ristorante davvero ben curato situato in una zona tranquilla , il personale è cortese e il cibo e’ ottimo , esperienza sicuramente da rifare!

Wir haben das Überraschungs-Menü in drei Gängen mit passender Weinbegleitung ausprobiert. Es schmeckte alles hervorragend und war sehr schön angerichtet. Der Wein passte jeweils wunderbar dazu. Wir werden wieder kommen.

We tried the surprise menu in three courses with matching wine accompaniment. Everything tasted excellent and was very nicely prepared. The wine went wonderfully with each. We will come again.

Cibo ottimo, personale gentile e disponibile per ogni esigenza. È difficile per noi italiani trovare un ristorante buono quando andiamo all’estero ma questo supera ogni aspettativa! Da non perdere, esperienza culinaria ottima.

Excellent food, friendly and helpful staff for every need. It is difficult for us Italians to find a good restaurant when we go abroad but this one exceeds all expectations! Not to be missed, excellent dining experience.

Quality is good but quantity is far too little, slow service and very expensive.

We tried this wonderful restaurant in Dokkum and we were really happy with their proposals. We took the tasting menu, the Chef made us fly! The maître Salvatore was perfect in the right wines to the dishes proposed. We will definitely return !

Verkoolde pizza Gisteravond hebben een vriend van mij en ik hier gegeten. Wij bestelden respectievelijk het hoofdgerecht “Zeebaars met gnochetti en zomergroenten” (€ 28,50) en “Pizza salami” (€ 16,50). De pizza werd met flair door de charmante Italiaanse gastheer geserveerd. Alleen was de pizza verkoold, dus zwart. Mijn commentaar op deze verkoolde pizza was dat het zo hoorde, dat dit de authentieke bereidingswijze was en dat het in Italië ook zo gegeten werd. Zowel mijn vriend als ik, beiden 60+, hebben ruime restaurantervaring, ook in Italië, maar een dergelijk wanproduct en goedpraten ervan hadden we nog nooit meegemaakt. Ook bij het afruimen heb ik nogmaals mijn ongenoegen over de gang van zaken kenbaar gemaakt. Behalve het zwart-zijn, was deze pizza ook nog eens taai. Maar volgens onze gastheer hoorde het nu eenmaal zo. Het zeebaarsgerecht , immers een hoofdgerecht, was aan de karige kant; wat meer gnochetti en vooral zomergroenten erbij hadden wij voor deze prijs van € 28,50 wel verwacht. Ook dit hebben wij kenbaar gemaakt. Wij kregen het idee dat de clientèle van dit etablissement vooral bestaat uit passanten, toeristen die min of meer toevallig binnen komen lopen. Maar een lokale Friezin met een uitgebreid netwerk, daar heeft dit restaurant kennelijk niet bij stilgestaan.

Very friendly staff, everything delicious

The food tasted delicious with very high quality ingredients. The atmosphere was also very inviting with an authentic feel, and servers were extremely nice and efficient

It took a long time for the food to arrive even though there wasn't much going on. The pizza was burnt in some places. We expected more for the price.

Always excellent, personal service and simply delicious food.
