Restaurant & Pizzeria Lucca Due in Haarlemmerbuurt

Great pizza and cocktails! It's always very busy in the evenings, but we still had a very comfortable seat and didn't have to wait long for our food.

The manager is really mean with the employees. We were waiting for our food and she was yelling at them. Honestly we should not encourage place were young people are treated like this. That is why I highly don’t recommend this place.

Very friendly welcome, the staff made sure to find a table. The food was excellent! The service was fast and the waiters were very friendly. Very good value for money 👍

The food was so amazing, that I forgot to take a picture of it. All that’s left is the empty beer glass of the delicious beer. Can highly recommend to come here.

It used to be very good here. But now it's a pizza Napoletana with 3 anchovies, 25 disgusting black-painted pitted olives from a glass jar (I'd rather have 10 Taggiasca olives), and chewy mozzarella. The crust is still reasonable. The spinach side dish is excellent. Also, only 1/3 full on a Wednesday, while a year ago you had to fight for a seat. Very nice, understanding waiters; they were now outnumbered by the occupancy, while it used to be the other way around. The house red wine is perfectly acceptable. Conclusion: chef, spend a little more on the olives and cheese.

A truly delicious Italian restaurant in the city center, where else can you find that?

The gluten free pizza was made with a Schar base. I should have read the previous reviews . Quite disappointing .

Nice pizza (and more) place! Great food, friendly service and in general a restaurant that I can recommend!

Lovely pizza, very friendly staff would go again and recommend 😉

I have never eaten such a delicious Carbonara in my whole entire life. It was more than a masterpiece. The chef deserves a prize and the place - a Michelin star.

The restaurant is beautiful and simple. The staff is friendly. The food is delicious. My order was pesto pasta, fettuccine with meat, and margherita. Beautiful. I recommend it.

Fantastic Italian spot in Amsterdam! Excellent and varied menu, I've eaten here many times and loved all the dishes I've had!!

I ordered a tuna pizza for 15,50€. It was prepared in a couple minutes. At some places the tomato foundation was a little bit too much, but it was mostly good. The staff was nice, but thanks to the loneliness (at 4PM I was the only one eating there) I was feeling a bit under pressure, but I wouldn’t mark it as a restaurant’s fault. I would give 9/10.

Italian specialty restaurant with a wide selection of dishes to suit all tastes. Everything is delicious, including the Peperoni pizza, a real treat!

The pizzas are amazing, the staff is very nice, thank you.

Super friendly staff, good was wineglass and the terrace is wonderful. Great place!

Food is terrible. We ordered 2 pizzas and the pizza base was a joke. Even microwave pizza would be better:D I don’t understand how this place has good ratings. But Coca Cola was good 😄

Nice staff, tasty pasta, BUT unfortunately bad espresso, please make an investment in a bit better coffee quality!

A four-star restaurant. The atmosphere is okay, the garden is large, and it's generally nice, but there are a few things they could have done better, as they spoil the whole experience – for example, the toilets... The food is okay. The lasagne is very good and served perfectly in a hot dish, keeping it warm until the very end. The service is very friendly.

We waited 25 minutes for the server to take our order but he never showed up. We therefore left and got food somewhere else

Very busy restaurant, food absolutely fabulous, great value and house is is fab too.. only dropped one star as they seemed like they could do with a few more staff for volume as we were a very long time waiting for each course and thought at one stage we were forgotten about, and also seating in the door out to kitchen area where there was a very strong draft. But food and atmosphere 🙌

Very accommodating staff on a busy Friday night. Good atmosphere and price too match.

The service was very dull, our server was not helpful, rather condescending

Friendly service, reservation is preferred.

Excellent pizza, friendly and fast.

Very arrogant woman who is managing here. Dont recommend

A very good restaurant, friendly and welcoming, with kind and very helpful staff. Would definitely recommend it again, it's delicious. Bravo!

One of the few restaurants that also offers gluten-free pizzas. And they were delicious too.

Great Italian restaurant with super delicious food. The pizza and pasta are also gluten-free and very tasty. A lovely atmosphere inside and a superb outdoor area in front of an old church.

Very good pizzeria. I took a pizza to go, the gorgonzola was to die for. I didn't wait too long. I was even offered something to drink while I waited.

Showed up during the busiest part of dinner with 6 people. Still managed to get a seat due to the great and friendly service guy. Pizza was super and affordable, especially for Amsterdam standards. Would definitely visit again!

The carpacio was amazing. The pizza was delicious and saucy. Enjoyed the meal here. Thank you

Thank you for this nice dinner time ! Great food and adorable even if young staff! Pizzas are great, beers from the tap too, Nice range of desserts Prices are reasonable for the standing and the wonderful outdoor, even in an expensive city ! Gluten free and vegan cheese options for pizzas, Thank you for that !

Great Pizza, the crew was fine, interesting location in the front of a church.

Only food, nice place. We sat outside. Not expensive.

Food was great, service was better.

Nice specially black eggplant 🍆 so delicious 😋 Amsterdam, Netherlands 🇳🇱

It's too busy! Not enough staff. We literally waited hours for drinks, food, and desserts. Everything didn't arrive at the same time, in stages... Too bad.

Lucky find in the middle of Amsterdam. When you can eat outside in front of the church it makes the “Italian feel” complete!

Its such a shame cause the food is really great. But me and my friends were not only ignored for ages, the service was openly hostile. They also are not at all helpfull with food allergies. Truly a bad experiance. Would not recommend

One of my favorite places in Amsterdam. Regular guest and recommend it to everyone. Amazingly delicious food for great price. Service is always on top. Friendly, attentive and welcoming staff. Great pasta choices. Fantastic pizza. Love it.

Amazing patio and really good service

It's not an Italian restaurant... I went in and no one spoke my language, I even tried to speak in Italian and I didn't even get the most banal answers. The food was okay, but really nothing special. I had ordered a sea bass and asked for it to be without onion or anything strange, but when it arrived it was actually full of onion. Obviously I sent it back. They had put it on my bill, then I pointed it out to them and in disbelief they finally took it away from me. It's a restaurant. But not an Italian restaurant.

I'm from Barcelona, ​​and during my five-day stay in Amsterdam, I went to Lucca Due twice for dinner. I'm celiac, and the gluten-free dishes are some of the best I've ever tried. Plus, the service from the staff is exceptional. Highly recommended! Carlos

You just can’t beat delicious pizza and affordable wine—especially when you’re enjoying it al fresco! The atmosphere was relaxed, incredibly kid-friendly, and perfect for families. We’d go back in a heartbeat!

Basic simple food. Very basic. Not a return point. Not a recomandation

Great food, the pasta was lovely and the service was great as well. Wish we lived in Amsterdam, then we would go to this restaurant very often. Great drinks and good wine!

Got a Cheese and mushroom 🍄 pizza 🍕 Was excellent 👌

Delicious Italian dishes, a great atmosphere, and friendly service. It's always worth a visit. We've been eating here for years, and the food is always top-notch! Definitely recommend it 😊

Very good restaurant, pleasant setting. If you want to benefit from a certain experience (setting, food, service) objectively, it might be difficult... Average service: forgetfulness, misunderstood orders (we had a bilingual person at the table, I should add), and unfriendly waiters. I'd bet on a bad evening or poor organization, hoping for an easy area for improvement.

Cosy and friendly atmosphere. Delicious food. Loved it. Recommended for relaxing meals.

Staff welcoming and supportive to customers with a range of different languages spoken! The pizzas are 💯 delicious! And the atmosphere just makes you feel relaxed and comfortable

The food is very good and it is open until late.

We happened upon the pizzeria by chance during an afternoon stroll and went straight in for dinner that evening. Beautiful surroundings, friendly and attentive service. The pizza is excellent! The tiramisu to finish was almost too much of a good thing. 😉

Interesting place, the tables outside are in front of a church. They don't speak any Spanish and only a little English. We ordered two dishes to share, a salad and a pizza, and they brought them both at the same time, even though we had specified that we should get the salad first.

A piece of authentic Italy in Amsterdam. Highly recommended!!!

Great Italian place, food seemed very authentic and the staff was friendly

Brilliant restaurant, food and staff. Highly recommendeed.

Really cute, spacious terrace. The mains was very tasty and fresh. Tiramisu was a bit disappointing but not bad.

Cozy little restaurant, albeit quite cramped. The food was good, nothing wow but good and generous portions.

Excellent food, attentive service and away from the hustle and bustle of the center.

We came across this restaurant by accident - and how glad are to have discovered it! The food was terrific - the service was top notch - friendly and genuine. The atmosphere was comfortable and relax. If you like Italian - I would highly recommend.

Very good service and cozy atmosphere!

Very friendly service and the food is certainly tasty but not spectacular. Sweet and regular potato on a pizza vegetariana is a bit strange. Not bad but also not worth repeating.

Absolutely best food I had while in the Netherlands. Everyone was so friendly and the atmosphere was great. It was so good we came back for a second time while in the city!

Welcomed by Francesca it was a pleasure. Excellent pizzas, special meat. Fair prices

High-quality Italian restaurant 👌🏻👍🏻 Great starters and pizzas! Lovely, cozy decor. Highly recommended!

Very good quality, normal-sized portions, and incredibly flavorful. Highly recommended!

Fast service, great food and good service. Great that it is not hip and touristy

Esta fue una gran comida después de un largo viaje en tren! Tengo la pizza Pepperoni (sale SUPER caliente, así que espera un minuto antes de comer) , 25 cl del Korenwolf, y un tiramisú! ¡La camarera también era muy agradable! Ella era de Burdeos, así que me habló en francés también!

A real old-fashioned pizzeria, informal and cozy although it is quite big. Unfortunately the pizza arrived lukewarm and there was very little cheese on it. They do use quality ingredients and their dough is also good. Very correct female server.

Very good food and nice service.

Excellent service with friendly staff. Food is quite tasty. True Italian style pizza. The tenderloin was perfectly cooked and flavorful. Tender veal. We have been to Lucca several times and yet to be disappointed.

Llegó a Lucca Due hace 7 años con mi hijo. Luego mi hija visitó, luego mi esposa. Por separado para visitar a mi hijo estudiando en Amsterdam - todo en 2017. ¡Adelante 2025 y sigue siendo súper! Gran comida, ambiente y precio razonable. Oh - sí - la anfitriona llamada Esmeralda hizo toda la diferencia y ella sigue ahí cuidando muy bien a todos los clientes👏👍

Très bon accueil. Dans l'assiette une merveille (bacala à la napolitaine) très bon vin de Sicile. Servie avec le sourire en anglais ou néerlandais et même Français! Adresse à visiter sans soucis!

Recommended by the hotel (Max Brown) where I was staying during a short business trip to Amsterdam. I was very pleased with this restaurant: excellent food and top-notch service. The pizza was truly worthy of the name – authentic and delicious – and the spaghetti were perfectly al dente. Even the espresso was spot on. Compliments to the team and thank you!

Amazing courtyard when it’s warm! Perfect pasta and great service

The pizza was amazing. And the service was great as well

Restaurant & Pizzeria Lucca Due was a success. We tried a spectacular charcuterie and cheese board, with homemade focaccia and delicious sauces. The pizza, with a thin and crispy crust, was exquisite, and the pasta was very tasty and well presented. An authentic Italian, with quality products and a cozy atmosphere. Highly recommended.

Food is fantastic, always perfect, especially the pizza. But don’t expect quick and nice service.. they are trying but fail in educating their staff and in planning their processes efficiently. I will come back, but only for picking up the awesome pizza.

We spontaneously reserved a table online and were warmly greeted when we arrived. The service was very nice and attentive, the food was delicious! Price/performance for our requirements top!

Muy buena comida italiana. Teníamos pizza y tres pastas diferentes. El marisco y las albóndigas eran especialmente grandes. Todo el mundo tuvo una gran comida.

We 2 Aussies arrived in Amsterdam Saturday night and our hotel has no restaurant so we took to the streets and were walk ins at Lucca. Staff could not have been more helpful. We sat at bar for 2 minutes and like magic a table for 2 was ready. Pizza funghi and spaghetti and meatballs. House wine a very respectable Primitivo. Finished off with Limoncello. The whole experience was so good we went back within 24 hours this time lasagne, garlic butter for the beautiful fresh bread , primitivo again but this time Affogato to finish. The service again friendly fast and efficient and the owner remembered us from last night with a warm smile. Do yourself a favour and go to Lucca, if you have ever been friends with an Italian family, you will understand the warmth. They even had Bundaberg Ginger Beer from back home.

The place has a certain charm, but it could use more authenticity—especially in the way Tom presented the Italian food. Unfortunately, the overall experience was quite messy. We had a reservation for 20:00 but weren’t seated until 20:50, and our main course didn’t arrive until 22:15. That’s a long wait for everything. I ordered the seafood spaghetti with vongole, shrimp, and squid—it was overcooked and lacked flavor. Not impressive at all. The staff only became friendly after we complained about the long wait outside. Overall, not a place I’d be excited to return to.

Nos encantó este restaurante! Nos gusta probar una variedad de comidas y restaurantes mientras viajamos tan rara vez nos gusta volver a visitar el mismo lugar dos veces. Nos encantó este lugar tanto que no solo volvimos 3 días después, pero volvimos para una TERCERA visita en una semana! Nos encantó la pasta con mariscos (y tuvimos que dos noches) y tuvimos una gran pizza y ensalada nuestro tercer viaje! El personal era amable y servicial y la comida era deliciosa. La noche que no fueron capaces de sentarnos inmediatamente, fuimos capaces de sentarnos en el bar y tomar una copa de vino durante unos 15 minutos, entonces estaban listos para nosotros! Sin duda volveremos la próxima vez que estemos en Amsterdam!

We LOVED this restaurant! We like to try a variety of foods and restaurants while we are traveling so rarely like to revisit the same place twice. We loved this place so much that we not only returned 3 days later, but we went back for a THIRD visit in one week! We loved the pasta with seafood (and had that two nights) and we had great pizza and salad our third trip! The staff was friendly and helpful and the food was delicious. The one night they weren't able to seat us immediately, we were able to sit at the bar and have a glass of wine for about 15 minutes then they were ready for us! We will definitely be going back the next time we are in Amsterdam!

The orders took a while but it was great, I just found it a little spicy. A vegetarian friend loved the options and said it was wonderful.

Very nice Italian restaurant with a very extensive menu. Staff is fast and friendly. Food is good, the filetto alla soriana was very tasty!

We loved the food and atmosphere so much we ate at the same place 3 nights in a row. Staff very friendly.

Pizzas are great and prepared with passion, you can really taste this!! And stop talking about the cheesecake!! I really enjoyed it and really recommended for the delicious pizzas, pastas but also for the meat dishes (tenderloin recommended)!! See you soon

Very busy. Tables too close together.

Top tent. Delicious gluten-free food. They can adjust the dishes. Even with a terrace at a church. In short, a top place.

Very good restaurant, special mention for the possibility of having all gluten-free dishes. For intolerant people like me it’s really cool and it was very good.

Very tasty, can only be recommended, nice staff and a nice atmosphere.

Walked in on spec and got a great meal. Pizza with wild spinach and red onion was delicious 😀

Should be 5 stars, but, we've been here 4 times in the last 12 months and we've never been able to pay by card. For some reason their payment machines do not accept HSBC visa credit, or debit cards, and they don't accept AMEX. So, 3 stars it is. Sort your system out! And be warned, you might need to pay with cash. The pasta is excellent, and in generous quantity, as are the pizze. The service is friendly and efficient. Book ahead, it is popular.

Excellent restaurant italien . Les produits sont frais . Les pizzas sont excellentes. Le tiramisu maison magnifique ! Merci pour l’accueil

Bad service and food quality average

Unbelievable that people rate this place any less than 5 stars. Best spot in Amsterdam. So many nights out and birthdays we have had here. Truly iconic. Food is amazing! I recommend go to Lucca Due :)

Very nice service and delicious food. The place was completely full and the staff remained relaxed and very friendly. There were people waiting for a table and you were not looked away to make room for those waiting. Nice pizzeria.
