Fuoco Vivo in Da Costabuurt

We were lucky and got a table even without a reservation. The sourdough pizza from the stone oven was delicious.

Had a good experience. The staff is friendly but it can get crowded so they'll get a bit slow. Pizza is good. Had a diavola and loved it.

I’ve had the loveliest evening! The atmosphere is calm and cozy, and the staff is very attentive. I will most certainly return!

Very good pizza, very nice staff

Not my first time but has been consistently good over the years. Some traditional choices along with some unusual specials. The quality and service are top notch, and the Nduja is a particular highligt.

Pizza was excellent. Crispy on the bottom and a great selection of pizzas. Highly recommend on of the best in the West!

Exceptional food, service and atmosphere! I highly recommend!

We ate the best pizza EVER here! We arrived around 9:20 pm. Since the sign outside said they close at 10 pm, we asked if that was okay. We were greeted very warmly and told that only the kitchen was closing. The pizza arrived very quickly. It was sooooo good! 🩷

The best pizza in Amsterdam! The staff is also very friendly. Highly recommended!

Real pizzas from a wood-fired oven. Friendly staff and just really delicious pizzas! Absolutely recommended!

I really like it here. It still tastes like it used to when i was 7 years old. Will always stay my most favorite place ever.

Truly impressive. Today I tried the Margherita and the vegetable pizza; they were fantastic from the dough to the sauce and the cheese. Everything was excellent (10/10). Moreover, the service from the person at the cash register was amazing.🤞🏻🌺

An absolute gem for anyone who loves real Italian pizza! As an Italian, I’m quite picky when it comes to pizza, and this place truly delivers. The wood-fired oven makes all the difference, giving the pizza that authentic flavour and perfect texture you expect in Italy. The quality of the ingredients is outstanding, and the service is always friendly and attentive. The owner is really nice and professional! If you’re looking for authentic Italian pizza, this place is absolutely worth a visit

Hidden gem! Love love this place, traditional sourdough pizza, super authentic, great cocktails and spritz, and lovely service.

I thought this place had the best pizza in Amsterdam when I lived here from 2009 to 2011. We ate here again this evening, in July 2026 and I'm pleased to report that it's as good as ever.

What a fantastic experience on De Clercqstraat. We had a delicious meal here, and the quality of the pizzas is truly impressive. The crust is perfectly baked in the oven, with those characteristic airy edges and just the right amount of 'leopard spots'. The fresh basil on the pizza smelled wonderful and completed the experience perfectly. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and prepared with care. This is definitely a place to return to. Highly recommended for anyone who appreciates authentic quality.

Ordered 15 pizzas here for my birthday and it was great. On time, delicious pizzas, and friendly service. Even got a little gift with it. Super!

Excellent pizza. Consistently good.

Pizza just can't get any better! The crust and base are crisp yet chewy and flavorful. I usually leave the crust but here I ate all of it and want more!

Really nice food. Really well priced

I’ve been a customer for 9 years and always had good experience! Grazie!

a restaurant only for those who know what the real taste of Italy is

Amazing pizza, you can really taste the authenticity and the uniqueness of their flavours. Super easy to digest

I turned up without a reservation with 2 other solo travellers and got welcomed well and only had to wait a couple of minutes for a seat. The food was amazing and a good selection for vegetarians. I really loved my pizza, it really hit the spot. We didn't have any alcohol, but they do have good options. The service was amazing, friendly and ineojld recommend coming here for some proper Italian pizza.

Good pizza, walked in spontaneously a few months ago. Friendly staff and really good pizzas.

Great pizza, great service and lovely atmosphere

Great vibes and for company outing ;) The fungi pizza was so cheesy and tasty!!

Exceptionally tasty authentic pizza and wonderful staff! Highly recommend!

Delicious pizzas, nice atmosphere and beautiful setting

Such a lovely visit to this place. The food was incredible. The working Valentines Day were absolutely hustling. Great service and amazing night all around.

We recommend 100% this place ! We discovered this pretty restaurant through a recommendation and we loved it ! Homemade pizzas with great ingredients, good quality et nice service ❤️ The price is correct 😊 We will come back !

After traveling all over Italy for nearly three months, we can honestly say we rarely had pizzas this good. True Neapolitan-style pizzas from a real oven, like you’d expect in Naples itself, absolutely delicious. The service is just as Neapolitan: warm, lively and welcoming!

A great place in Amsterdam to eat the best Italian pizzas. Highly recommended.

I went here for dinner with friends for my birthday and we enjoyed ourselves so much! We had a delicious meal and drinks in a lovely atmosphere. The starters (charcuterie, cheese, olives, bruschetta), the pizzas, and the desserts (scroppino and tiramisu) were truly delicious and the service perfect. Just a no-nonsense pizzeria with quality food, drinks, and service. I'll be back soon :)!

The Guys at Fuoco vivo are just the best!! They are always super kind and super efficient! The pizza is so good!! Finally I can eat pizza in a real Italian pizzeria.

Really yummy authentic pizza place with attentive & fast service. Price is reasonable. Make sure to make reservations. We enjoyed ourselves a lot here.

The pizza is great! The sourdough really makes the difference. Also the starters and the tiramisu are fantastic. Cozy and relaxed place with a great host! Super recommended

Tiramisu was meh in my opinion. Pizza delicious Tiramisu: 6 pizza: 9

Amazing pizza’s, very friendly owner and recommend for order or take-out as one of the best in Amsterdam West!

Pizza is just fantastic, amazing sour dough, quality topping (salsiccia is my fav here) and as an Italian truly among one of the best pizzerie in Amsterdam - definitely a hidden gem. Whenever I want to find a familiar and cozy vibe I go here! Well done

Couldn’t wait with the first slice until after the picture - imagine, thats how fabulous the pizza is! Highly recommend!

Very tasty Neapolitan pizza! The crust was thin and fluffy, and the crust was particularly well done. I had a tuna pizza with fresh tuna and a really good tomato sauce. The staff was friendly and attentive, but they forgot about us twice after we tried to pay. The only downside: it's very warm inside (we were there in the summer), as the kitchen is open to the restaurant. Otherwise, absolutely recommended for good food.

Amazing pizza, thin crust, great ingredients and amazing tiramisu

Best pizza in Amsterdam, I tried many places over the years but, as an Italian, this is absolutely the best you can find here! The sourdough is so tasty and easy to digest, even a simple Margherita becomes a special pizza! I tried the tiramisù and it was just like my grandma does, superb! Service also always smiling and great atmosphere! Well done guys!

Among the best meals I've had in my life. Thank you.

Wow, what an amazing pizza! Having grown up in Italy, I never know what to expect from pizza in other countries, but this sourdough pizza met all the criteria for awesomeness and made me enjoy every single bite. This time I chose the salsiccia pizza, and the ingredients and cooking were spot on. The price was fair for such amazing quality and the great service made this experience even more enjoyable. I’ll definitely be back to try different pizzas!

Best sourdough Pizza of Amsterdam! No debate... We have been coming to this pizza place for more than 5 years ! The 5 cheese pizza and Fuoco special with truffle salami are to die for... We always order same pizzas and in 5 years we always and I say again always had superb pizza cooked... Quality and service never changed... Keep up the good work Lelo and Celo. Special thanks and appreciation from Alex !!! You guys deserve it...

Pizza dough is good, the combination with toppings was average

everything was delicious, pizza worthy of Italian tradition

An authentic Italian place. I came with an Italian friend and speak the language a little myself, the stuff radiates Italian charm and is happy to exchange a bit in their native language. The food impeccable, excellent pizza and focaccia but I would put the focus on the savory dishes. Whenever you feel like eating Italian, this is one of the places to go!

There are trendier pizza places in Amsterdam. There are more gourmet pizza places in Amsterdam. But there is no better pizza place in Amsterdam than Fuoco Vivo. End of story

Very good pizza, very high level, sourdough and excellent ingredients. Excellent service!

Italian oasis in Amsterdam. Not a hip concept of a few slick guys, but simply, love for the profession, and the best pizza in town.

Authentic Italian restaurant. Just outside the city center and easy to reach. Very cozy and tasty. Not expensive. Not many tourists, fortunately. And they all speak Dutch!!! Where else do you find this in Amsterdam???

I had an amazing experience at Fuoco Vivo! The tuna pizza was absolutely delicious!! full of flavor and perfectly baked. The atmosphere was great and relaxing, and the host was super friendly and welcoming. My food came very quickly, and everything tasted incredible. Highly recommended , I’ll definitely come back!

Delicious pizzas, relaxed atmosphere and excellent service. As icing on the cake also tiramisu that you can eat as a pregnant woman!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ After living in the Netherlands more then 20 years, I can confidently say this is the best pizzeria in town. The flavors are authentic, the crust is perfectly crisp yet soft inside, and the ingredients are clearly top quality. Every bite took me straight to Italy. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, and the staff truly care about what they serve. An absolute gem — I’ll be coming back again and again!

Very good pizzas. Fresh from the wood oven. Desserts fantastic.

Very yummy sourdough pizza! Great dough with amazing fresh ingredients! Highly recommended!

Delicious sourdough pizza and the dessert was a great taste to finish off with. The garlic focaccia was well balanced with salt, garlic and nice puffy and chewy dough. The pizza dough had just the right chewiness and thickness (not too thick but enough to hold the topping) and what made it even better was the home made chilli oil. I would have liked a little more tomato base on my pizza (mushroom with ham) but it was still super tasty and i would def go back again. The tiramisu and panna cotta were sweet but not overly so. Would definitely recommend.

This restaurant offered a solid dining experience. The pizzas were definitely a highlight—well-cooked with a crispy crust and great flavor. The tiramisu was quite good as well, though not the best we’ve had. We decided to try panna cotta for the first time, but unfortunately, it wasn’t really my thing. On the bright side, the service was exceptional—friendly and attentive throughout. Overall, it was a pleasant visit, and we will be returning to try more pizzas.

Don't miss out...Quality and price...Excellent

Fantastic real Italian pizzas (that base!), relaxed atmosphere and friendly service. Don't forget the sgroppino: the tastiest I have ever tasted outside Italy.

My favorite pizzeria! The taste of the pizza is amazing. The people there are always nice and the atmosphere is very relaxing and warm! Happy to go at least once a week. Perfect spot to relax and eat a real Italian pizza :)

Absolutely delicious pizza "Norma" served here. Very nice staff.

Really great pizza. Kind staff. Would return.

Delicious pizza, hot sauce also top, delicious scroppino, relaxed music, friendly service and perfect cappo to end.

We tried the 5 cheese, tuna and Marguerite pizzas. Especially the one with 5 cheeses was very satisfying. House wines are also easy to drink and a nice pizza accompaniment.

We have been to this restaurant twice so far and both experiences have been great. It has your typical warm and cosy Italian restaurant atmosphere, and the level of service and food quality was just amazing. Loved their pizzas and their homemade chilli oil paired with it well. Their homemade tiramisu was even better than what I’ve had in Italy. Will definitely go back again and again.

Cozy place to have a pizza with friends, waiters are very friendly and homemade limoncello is perfect !

The food at Fuoco Vivo was delicious and authentic. The staff also spoke and understood Italian, highlighting that it is indeed an authentic restaurant. We tried one of the specials, the Pancetta & Radicchio pizza and it was really good and worth trying. The prices were reasonable, the portions were large, and the service was fast with us receiving our food in about 15 minutes. The panna cotta was also really good and came as a pretty large portion.

Only Italian pizzas, very good.

Super tasty food and very nice service. The bruschetta and homemade limoncello are particularly highlights.

Excellent pizza and very nice staff 👍

Lovely pizza, amazing music, delicious tiramisu, truly friendly Italian staff. Immaculate evening 🤍

We visited for an early evening pizza. The food was excellent the wine was excellent and so was the service. The place is really clean and we love to see the pizza oven in the open kitchen. Only marked atmosphere down as it was very early. We passed the restaurant the night before and it was really full. Would not hesitate to recommend the restaurant to friends and family.

We loved the food, the host, and the atmosphere. Cute little hole in the wall with a wood oven and skilled pizza chefs.

Authentic Italian pizza, definitely coming back

The best pizzeria in Amsterdam, very kind staff, delicious pizza.

If you are looking for a delicious pizza, look no further! Here you have made a delicious pizza with sourdough dough, a bit on the expensive side, but you certainly get value for your money! The staff is friendly, but sometimes they are simply working hard and therefore don't have much time for an extensive chat. Definitely recommended!

This is THE best pizza I've ever tried.

Amazing pizza and friendly staff! It's a must.

Wow, wow and wow. One of the tastiest, if not the tastiest pizza I have eaten. Normally I leave the crusts behind, but here I eat everything, the sourdough pizza is a specialty in itself. Parking is a disaster, but it's really worth it :)

Cousy atmosphere, great service and food

Really best pizza i have eaten in Amsterdam Delicious tiramisu Friendly service

Simply the best pizza in Amsterdam.

My opinion? Best pizza by far in Amsterdam. Favorite place. Highly recommended.

One of the best pizzas & tiramisus I‘ve ever had! :) I also liked the atmosphere. Def come here when you‘re in Amsterdam!

Sourdough pizza with fresh ingredients with a beautiful dough. One of the best pizzas I’ve had in a while. Large table of 8 and severed very quickly. You can watch the dough get processed while you sit.

A small, cozy and great price place. A little far from the center but the walk there is pleasant

Tasty pizzas, but given the reviews I expected more. Not a winner.

Really nice sourdough pizza with nice Italian waiters.

Truly one of the tastiest pizzas I ate in Amsterdam! I highly recommend the pizza with spicy salami, there is also Madame Jeanette oil on the table and it is really delicious. Also very friendly service!

De bons produits pour de bonnes pizzas, et de bons desserts sur une carte complète. Un restaurant bien tenu et un accueil chaleureux

Excellent authentic Italian pizza made with quality ingredients.

I'm sorry, this is the first and last time I order pizza from here. Here is how it just arrived... It was hard to get to the delivery service and seems impossible to get a refund.

Kind and accommodating service even under high pace, which is not trivial! Light and good pizza. Simple menu which for me is a big plus.

It was great. I had a margherita pizza which was excellent and very well priced. The service was very good and the whole experience was very enjoyable - especially for the price!

Awesome Italian restaurant. We had pizza (both out of specials menu and classics), it was awesome! Good red wine, deserts, service and atmosphere were great too. Will come back!

The perfect pizza! Very pleasant atmosphere
