Insieme Ristorante Italiano in Scheldebuurt

It's a real Italian restaurant in the center of Amsterdam. I ordered the Spaghettone, as I always order pasta. Great quality.

Amazing steak with all sides and nice staff , fully recomended

The food was really delicious, everything we ate was great, but I have never seen such small portions in my life. If you are hungry, you cannot get enough. If you want to taste it, go and you will be very pleased.

We luckily stumbled upon this restaurant thanks to a recommendation from the Hotel Okura. The staff was excellent and very accommodating. The food was just as good, with a small menu of truly fantastic Italian dishes, all superbly presented and delicious. Compliments to the staff and the kitchen, we'd love to come back!

One of the best restaurants I’ve eaten at in Amsterdam — delicious food, exceptionally kind service, and a cozy atmosphere.

The food was absolutely delicious. Everything was delicious, and the staff was very friendly and attentive. Definitely recommended!

An experience I recommend to anyone who has the opportunity to spend some time in this beautiful city. Our dinner was nothing short of superb, with excellent dishes and super friendly staff. Fabio and Andrea welcomed and pampered us throughout the evening. A heartfelt thank you, see you soon! ❤

**Review: An Italian Gem – Insieme** What a fantastic experience at Insieme! The food is simply exquisite – from the freshly prepared pasta to the perfectly cooked risotto, every dish is an ode to authentic Italian cuisine. The ingredients are top-quality, and the flavors are pure and balanced. But what makes this culinary experience truly unforgettable is the warm and personal service. Owner Andrea, in particular, makes the difference. His genuine interest in his guests and his in-depth knowledge of Italian food culture make you feel immediately welcome. His passion for his craft shines through in everything he does. Insieme is more than just a restaurant – it's a place where hospitality and gastronomy converge. Highly recommended!

Wow. What an amazing experience and service. Food was so fresh and authentic. Definitely need to come back and try the rest of the menu!

Chef Porru is a master at his art. Personalable and provided an amazing 5 course meal. 20/10

Great Italian restaurant. We spent new year eve there, it was a great choice really. Food is very well made and presented, the guys on the floor are amazingly professional, the restaurant is very cool. Real Italian food. No scam for tourist. It’s worth the taxi drive.

This is my favorite restaurant! I went to Insieme with my long distance partner for the first time in August of 2024. The next time we were able to go was in February of 2025. Imagine our utter shock when we walked in and the owner of the shop remembered us after we had only been to the restaurant one time over 6 months before! We just recently went to Insieme last week (after not being there for 5 months) and when we entered, we were immediately treated like family. The service at Insieme is the best I have ever experienced. They are so attentive to the relationships with their customers and express enthusiasm whenever you walk in the door. The food is phenomenal and clearly very high quality. I especially love the panna cotta. It is such a delight to come here and to have a place that my partner and I can call “ours”.

✨ Culinary magic at Insieme – a piece of Italy in Amsterdam ✨ What a surprise, what a discovery: Insieme on Scheldestraat is undoubtedly one of the best Italian restaurants in Amsterdam. From the moment you step inside, you're embraced by warmth, hospitality, and the irresistible aroma of authentic Italian dishes. It feels like you've stepped into Tuscany for an evening; everything here is so pure and flavorful. The menu is an ode to Italian cuisine – classic where necessary, surprising where possible. Every dish exudes craftsmanship: from the silky-smooth homemade pastas to the perfectly cooked fish and meat dishes. And we haven't even mentioned the burrata that literally melts in your mouth or the truffle risotto that touches your heart. What truly makes Insieme special is the love that goes into their cooking. Every plate tells a story, and the service is equally passionate. They know their wines (the selection is truly impressive) and know exactly what you need to make your evening unforgettable. Whether you're coming for a romantic dinner, an evening of dining with friends, or simply want to enjoy authentic Italian flavors – Insieme never disappoints. This isn't your average Italian restaurant; this is culinary Italy at its finest. Rating: 10/10 – highly recommended.💪 We'll be back. 🙏

Absolutely disappointing experience. The interior is outdated and there was a strange smell as soon as we walked in. The waiter informed us that we couldn’t order just nuts, olives or dessert with wine according to the restaurant’s policy, each person must order a main dish. This felt pretty unwelcoming. The place is overpriced for what it offers, especially considering the poor atmosphere and lack of flexibility. Just 500 meters away in De Pijp you’ll find plenty of far better restaurants - stylish, welcoming, and without bizarre rules… NOT RECOMMENDED

The best Italian restaurant in Amsterdam, wonderful!

Went from Utrecht to Insieme to eat Absolutely no regrets, real Italian restaurant, atmospheric and not too big Very friendly welcome, we had a 5-course dinner with delicious dishes, the risotto, the tenderloin, the chicken and the fish, all top notch Not to mention the tiramisu and the pannacotta And delicious wines We had a wonderful relaxing evening We will definitely come back again

An unforgettable evening at Insieme Amsterdam I arrived fifteen minutes early, but was immediately warmly welcomed by the friendly staff. From that moment on, I felt truly welcome. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, as if you were coming home to someone you have known for years. The evening started with a delicious aperitif, perfect to get in the mood. What followed was a multi-course dinner that exceeded all expectations. Each dish was a work of art in itself, perfectly balanced in terms of taste, with surprising combinations and a presentation that you almost felt a shame to eat. You can taste that everything here is cooked with love and craftsmanship. What made this experience truly special was the combination of refined gastronomy with an almost homely warmth. It felt like dining at star level, but with the coziness of an Italian grandmother at the table. The service was not only professional, but also genuinely interested and caring, you really feel seen here. In short: an evening at Insieme is much more than just going out for dinner. It is an experience. I can highly recommend it to everyone

Everything honest fresh. The Panna Cotta was special. Also the bread board with delicious oil and special butter. The atmosphere is very relaxing and the service excellent. Important elements to come back and recommend. Thanks for the nice evening.

Service particularly good, together with a well balanced menu and quality ingredients.

Beautiful, inventive cuisine strongly based on Sardinian roots, lovely personnel, one of the best restaurants I have ever eaten in.

We had a really nice meal. It was a peaceful retreat from the bussel of the big city.

Delicious Italian! Good service and fine dishes. Basic decor but with a lot of atmosphere. The dishes are very tasty and varied. We had a three-course menu where multiple dishes per course were served ‘to share’. We will definitely come back here!

Ordinary meal, cost-effective wine

Exquisite Italian cuisine at a very high price. The environment is great and the staff are friendly. The food tastes okay, but I think at this price point I would have expected more. The fried fish for the main course was a little too burnt, and it left a bitter taste in the mouth which was not a good experience. The pasta was a bit too salty and I felt very thirsty after eating it. The dessert tiramisu was a highlight and was very delicious.

They allow dogs and I don't like dogs in restaurants

The atmosphere at this restaurant is great, and the risotto I had was very tasty. My husband enjoyed the vegan pasta, and we also tried the aperitif. However, I was surprised by the limited selection of pasta and pizza for an Italian restaurant. While we liked our experience, the menu doesn't offer much variety for future visits, which makes it feel like a one-time stop for us.

Our first meal in Amsterdam we had the good fortune of entering this restaurant. We were greeted and served by Alberto. We had an amazing experience enjoying the banter and many laughs with top quality service and food. We enjoyed is so much we went back the next evening. Highly recommend.

Very good Italian food, and Peroni Beer. I reommend Salmon, Foccacia, steak and Grilled Fish.

Had a nice evening, delicious food!

Lovely place and staff, food absolutely delicious - as a Sardinian person I could see it was really authentic.

Omg! This is hands down the best Italian restaurant I’ve ever been to! The food is simply incredible! The atmosphere is warm and inviting, making you feel right at home from the moment you step in. And the owner? Absolutely wonderful! Their hospitality and passion for what they do make the experience even more special. This is the kind of place you’ll want to come back to again and again!

Perfect home and lovely staff 🥹

Amazing experience with the staff and the food was the best

Absolutely recommended. Delicious food with subtle flavors, good wine and very good service.

When you think about a perfect evening surrounded of mediterranean vibes and authentic made Italian food from professional experiences chefs and services, Well this is the right place.🏅 After 3 years they still surprise me and leave me without worlds. The food is beyond eating is an experience! This guys are the top of the top in terms of delivering professional and traditional fusion modern italian hospitality! Grazie🏆

Very good authentic food and nice staff. Definitely come here for a good meal.

Had a quick but delicious meal with my mother yesterday. Dishes very well prepared, just like the service. Actually, this place isn't meant to be fast at all... Next time we'll take our time. Fortunately, portions are not too big, especially if you want to go through all the Italian courses.

Service was great and the food was excellent.

Brought a group of 25 people and Andre went above and beyond to accommodate our guests. We had several vegetarians and I requested that team all sit at one long table. His team was on top of every detail and the food was really wonderful! I highly recommend Insieme.

We were a group of 22 and it was very well organized. Great menu and wines. And something for everyone, including several vegetarians. Highly recommended!

Our best dinner by far in Amsterdam. Fresh produce, tasty dishes and a great atmosphere with impeccable friendly service. We will be be back for sure !! Thank you 😊

Excellent truly Italian restaurant, a lot of Sardinia on the menu interpreted in a creative and refined way. Located near the RAI Amsterdam fair, excellent for those staying in the area or leaving the fairgrounds. However, the price is decidedly higher, around 30/40% more, compared to something similar in Italy. But the quality is there.

Excellent taste and service. We feld very welcomed and the owner showed his talend in serving and giving us a pleasant experience. A real recommendation.

Andrea is amazing! Thanks everyone! Frazier!

The ambiance, the service and the food was fantastic, really! Definitely come more often. Was pleasantly surprised. Thanks for the wonderful evening!

Excellent food, they let us sit even though the kitchen was about to close, the waiter Davide was very kind and friendly!

The atmosphere only could be better because this restaurant needs more people to reserve. The food and service are excellent. We had the best experience ordering the new (roasted or smoked) bell pepper soup and tuna carpaccio, and the risotto with shrimp and the fish different styles. Great neighborhood restaurant, as will be back.

Amazing experience!!! I’m Italian and I can say that is a truly Italian experience

Amazing! Every dish was delicious, and we received a warm service! I would definitely recommend if you look for an authentic italian restaurant!

The food was delicious and the service perfect. I highly recommend this restaurant!

Real Italian food with an Italian atmosphere, authentic dishes made with love. I recommend for sure.

Top notch, I had a really pleasant meal at this Italian restaurant. The coffee brought back memories of my childhood, with that familiar, rich flavor that’s hard to find these days. The tiramisu was well-balanced and not overly sweet, just how I like it. The filet steak was cooked just right, tender and flavorful. Overall, it was a satisfying experience, and I’d definitely go back.

We dined at Insieme after a long flight from the United States. Hungry, but jet-lagged, we walked the few blocks from our hotel to the restaurant. I was a wonderful choice for us! This restaurant has it all: authentic Italian food superbly prepared, attentive service, and an attractive atmosphere. I had the special, gnocchi in a beet sauce. Different, but delicious. The tiramisu was also wonderful. The waiter recommended a wine that was fantastic! I am sad this restaurant is so far from home because I would love to return to it.

Best italian restaurant in Amsterdam! Compliments to the owners and the staff!

This is a truly delicious restaurant in Amsterdam!!

Best italian in town. Amazing food

I came here twice and both times the food was incredible ! I almost never write reviews but this place is worth it

Authentic Italian cuisine Very warm vibes Super-star genuine service So far; the best service we’ve received in A’Dam. Connection with the customer is there. True hospitality We tried the Ribeye steak (10/10) Gambrini (10/10) The pasta with Buratta & Basil sauce (100/10) Tiramisu (100/10) Strongly recommended ✅

Nice restaurant with the most amazing tiramisu I ever had. I was not happy with my choice of main course but that’s probably on me and not the restaurant. They have fantastic home made bread, good selection of dishes. And again, their tiramisu is one of the best I ever had. The waiters are very friendly and welcoming. Good atmosphere and on a nice evening you can sit outside.

Excellent restaurant, perfect from start to finish, both the service and the meal. I recommend this restaurant, you can go there with your eyes closed

Delicious food, incredibly nice staff - we had an absolutely wonderful evening! We will come back for sure!

Very nice food! The restaurant is recommended. The food was very good! I would recommend the restaurant.

This is actually an Italian restaurant with beautiful Italian food, owned and run by Italians who really know how good food can be. We’ve had a lot of mediocre Italian food in Amsterdam, and Insieme outshines them all by a lot. Such delicious homemade pasta and veggies. A really good wine list. You shouldn’t think twice, you should come here and let yourself be happy.

Really good food, fantastic service and brilliant wine. These people know how to make a guest feel welcome, and they really know their wine. Do recommend and (if I get the change) will visit again.

Consistent with their reputation. Very good address. book in advance as space is small.

Food was very flavourful at Insieme. While the portions were a bit small, the food was delicious nonetheless. Great ambiance and atmosphere as well.

I had the pleasure of dining at INSIEME last evening, and it was an experience to remember. From the moment we walked in, the ambiance set the tone for what turned out to be an extraordinary evening. The presentation of the food was impeccable, each dish a work of art. But it wasn't just about looks—the flavors were outstanding, each bite a testament to the chef's skill and creativity. The service was equally impressive. The staff were attentive and friendly, making us feel welcome and ensuring that we had everything we needed throughout our meal. It's been a long time since I've had such an exceptional dining experience. I wholeheartedly recommend Insieme to anyone looking for a place where both the food and service are top-notch. Can't wait to return!

First and probably last time... Scanty quantity for too high a price. Brief menu card. Wine is served in a pushy manner if there is still enough wine in it... Nice for Monaco but not in Amsterdam...

Nice Italian restaurant, from Sardinia. The service is excellent and the food quite nice and typical from Sardinia. The atmosphere is relaxed but well taken care of. Interesting gin with rosemary - very good

Another great Italian restaurant, and possibly my new favorite Italian in Amsterdam. The food was phenomenal, the service was top notch and all italians. The dessert was great, but I’ve had better. You can do a set menu but we chose a la cart.

Very tasty meal here with very attentive staff!

We enjoyed a delightful dinner on the terrace, complete with a superb variety of antipasti and an exceptional mixed grill of seafood for our main course. The quality of the food was outstanding. We concluded our meal with a delectable dessert and homemade limoncello. The staff were exceptionally friendly, the portions very generous, and the atmosphere was perfect. Some specific highlights were the butter that came with the bread (yes really), the tuna and the burrata. We've heard the menu changes frequently, so we're looking forward to returning soon to discover new culinary delights!

Although im a tourist, I cant visit Amsterdam without visiting this place as well….. :)….the staff have incredible memories, they remembered me after 8 months…impressive, food is delicious, staff are friendly, atmosphere was nice, good food quality :)….highly recommended….

Good atmosphere, super nice staff. Delicious surprise menu with varied food!

The nastiest italian food i've ever ate in my whole life

Polite and professional service. Food was great too. When you’re with 2 or 4 people I would highly recommend the antipasti Mixto for 2 people. That was a very nice and tasteful start to our meal. We Also appreciated the well balanced wine recommendation when it comes to price and quality. Well done!

Went there twice in one weekend. Relatively small menu. The dishes are high quality and tasty. What we didn't like, however, was that once there were two of us, then there were four of us. Nevertheless, the bread basket that was handed out was about the same size. We were charged for the requested refilling of the bread basket. We are treated more accommodatingly in other restaurants in the same price range.

Best meal i have ever had in Amsterdam and priced accordingly.

This restaurant is a true oasis of Italian flavor and atmosphere! From the moment you step in, you feel like you’ve been transported straight to Italy. Excellent food, authentic atmosphere, and friendly service - highly recommended!

This Place Is Amazing!!! The best italian food and restaurant i try in all Amsterdam, food quality top & service quality top!!! Also the staff Is very kind and professionale i realy enjoy the time that i have whit them in that place... If you search a romantic dinner this Is exactly what you need to try and also if you whant onli enjoy a nice italian dinner whit your friends is the perfect choice for you! I recommend trying it to believe it!!!

Their menu is a little more expensive but very much worth it. Their wait staff does an excellent job of helping with wine suggestions. A colleague and I had a very relaxing business dinner.

Very nice service, the waiters are fantastic!

Delicious dinner for our 25th anniversary. Very attentive staff, one of the few places where they still know hospitality! Thank you for the unforgettable evening!

Lovely food, true homemade Italian food made with passion. Lovely waiters willing to help you choose wines and your dishes. Lovely atmosphere as-well

A Hidden Gem of Culinary Delight Nestled in the corner within the much of a muchness streets, our accidental discovery of Insieme turned out to be a stroke of destiny. Despite the lackluster website, stepping into this enchanting establishment revealed an ambience that effortlessly blended coziness with elegance. From the moment we arrived, the staff went above and beyond to ensure our experience was nothing short of exceptional. They even graciously accommodated a special request for a pasta dish for our little one, which turned out to be a highlight of the evening. The culinary journey began with simple yet exquisite starters of bread and butter, showcasing the finest Sicilian oils and Sardinian bread—a testament to the chef's dedication to quality ingredients and craftsmanship. The pasta with veal ragu stole the show, a true masterpiece that left us speechless. Each bite was a symphony of flavors, perfectly balanced and expertly executed. As for the main course and desserts, they continued the love story that unfolded on our plates. Every dish was infused with care and passion, a testament to the talent and creativity of the chefs. Lastly, the front-of-house staff deserves special commendation for their warmth, professionalism, and thoughtfulness throughout our meal. Their genuine care for our experience elevated the evening to something truly memorable. In conclusion, Insieme is more than just a restaurant—it's a little piece of culinary heaven waiting to be discovered. Don't let its unassuming exterior deceive you; within lies a treasure trove of gastronomic delights that will leave you craving more.

A cosy but busy italian place. Very friendly and helpful staff. There are two issues. Small portions and unpalatable food. Everything was below average. We, 5 people, took different dishes and could share the dishes between each other and all came to the same conclusion. The quality was there, no doubt, but it was, simply untasty. It is a pity for such a nice place and friendly staff.

It’s been a year and a half since I’ve been and I just recommended this place to my friend who is going to Amsterdam and told her she 1000% has to go. The owner is from Italy and this is authentic Italian. When I went I had the red beet gnocchi and it was the best gnocchi I’ve ever tasted, all the flavors combined worked so well. (Better gnocchi than ones I’ve had in Italy). All the presentations were amazing and each course was better than the next. Service was kind.

Good service in a very average decorated place, unfortunately the food quality is under the price point and flavors are not the best at the least the night we were there. Right in between the rai and de pijp, this place is relatively well located, first impression is positive with an ok décor and good service. The dishes sounds good with product imported from Italy. Unfortunately the execution that night was not very high. A pity. I would not recommand.

We had a 4-course chef's selection menu here. The food and the service were great. The portions were good as well. They had options for non meat eaters as well. My partner chose meat, and I chose the non meat option. All the dishes were delicious. The wine selection was extensive, and the ones we tried paired very well with the food. The service was very friendly. We got to try some fresh black truffle along with one of the courses. They had both white and black truffles and you pay by the gram. Overall a great experience and a must try Italian restaurant in Amsterdam.

One of my absolute favorite Italian restaurants in the Netherlands. These guys bring it to a whole different level. Everything is just so tasty and so well made. They bring traditional Italians recipes to a higher level. Next to that, you feel the warmth of the people who work there and who are super friendly. It’s just outside of the touristy part, but this place is worth a detour!

Very nice wines and delicious italian food , service very friendly ... approved 👍

A true Italian experience. No pizza but culinary surprises! The service was also excellent Italian!

Very nice food!!. Sympathetic and service minded staff People are doing their very best We will definitely come back!!

Good food, but very pricey. So price quality is less as far as I'm concerned

Excellent food, delicious and beautiful to look at. Relaxing environment and friendly, knowledgeable staff. Highly recommended

This is one of the best or the best Italian restaurant in Amsterdam.

Great food, place and entire service

Amazing service by the owner and his staff. They made us feel very welcome and you could see they put a lot of effort in the food and the restaurant. We really enjoyed our evening here and will definitely be coming back!

Insieme Restaurant unquestionably deserves 5 stars. Impeccable service and delightful food create an unforgettable gastronomic experience. Highly recommended!
