Ristorante Italia Oggi in Nieuwmarkt/Lastage

Doriano and the chef were amazing!

Incredibly friendly and enthusiastic staff. Delicious food. We enjoyed ourselves and will definitely come back again.

We were a large party of 12 and the food and service was amazing. Every dish was delicious and the atmosphere was fun , lively and music was a perfect volume. I would recommend this restaurant to everyone.

Wonderful Italian restaurant, simple menu but the flavour of the dishes amazing. Service was wonderful and really enjoyed my meal

Small, cozy restaurant with excellent Italian cuisine. Top quality, just as you'd expect. Absolutely delicious. The music is tasteful, not too loud, so you can easily have a conversation. The menu is perfectly designed—not overwhelming, with a great daily specials menu. The owner serves the food personally. I'll definitely be back.

The experience was rich with many things💜 their food was excellent, I recommend the pizza and lasagna.

Very convivial place with authentic italian food. Fresh and delicious. Great service. Warm and family like atmosphere.

Great Italian homemade by "Mama". Delicioso!

Delicious Italian food with a lovely restaurant vibe and friendly people

The waiter oriano was the best !!! Such a nice person.

The tomato soup was really bad, it just tasted like tomato paste. The pasta al arabbiatta was way too sweet and not spicy at all, it felt like just canned sauce and pasta thrown together. The lasagna was good, a bit undersalted, but otherwise okay. The tiramisu was very disappointing. Not amazing at all, just mediocre. For these prices, I expected much more. Sorry. It's not bad, but it's really not good either…

My wife, a few friends, and I ate here today and had a really great experience. The restaurant has a really nice, cozy atmosphere and isn’t too big, which made it feel more personal. It’s family-run, and I actually got to meet the father and his two sons. They were all really nice and welcoming, and the service was great. I had the spaghetti carbonara, my wife had the spaghetti vongole with clams, one friend had the pasta Parmigiano, and another had a fish dish. Everyone really enjoyed their food. For dessert, we tried the tiramisu, panna cotta, and amaretto ice cream, and those were really good too. Overall, great food, great service, and a really nice family atmosphere. I would definitely come back and would recommend this place to anyone looking for good Italian food in Amsterdam.

Best Italian restaurant in Amsterdam😊

Excellent meal! This place has a lot of personality!!! Wait staff was wonderful! Food was terrific!

Thoroughly enjoyed the meal and service, beautiful focaccia and cannelloni. Sure to come again!

This is our fourth visit. We return every year, always welcomed as old friends. Order the focaccia and carbonara pasta. You’ll remember it always.

Lovely ambience, amazing food and good service.

Wonderful hospitality and excellent food. Recommend AAA+++

Pizza was delicious! And service was great! The vibe of the restaurant was as also so chill!

Great service and food was delicious! Would definitely visit again.

Excellent food. Totally enjoyed my evening

A great place with authentic Italian food in the center of Amsterdam. Two of us ate very well; we didn't hold back. The receipt is attached. The pasta was delicious, perfectly cooked al dente. As always, the bill goes up with the alcoholic drinks. But it's worth it. I really liked the place. The music was great too. And the service was excellent, to be honest.

Lovely place, and really tasty pasta and pizza! Friendly and professional service, really kind guys!

Fantastic restaurant… authentic Italian food, service and ambience. Highly recommend if you’re in Amsterdam! Food was amazing! Thank you for a such a pleasant meal! Antonella

Delicious food, paid less than expected

It has become my favorite restaurant!!!! Luckily, the other restaurant I always went to was full. Had a delicious meal and the people there were super nice. The melanzana was amazing!

The best spaghetti carbonara I have had and the monte faustino was perfect. A great evening!!!

Excellent meal, fantastic friendly staff.

Food was amazing, please stop in

Adel, our waiter, was awesome, and the food was delicious! Highly recommend!

Excellent food and service, especially with a group of 16

Everything you want from a quality Italian restaurant.

Wonderful Italian affair. Food was creative and good. Ate dinner two nights in a row we enjoyed it so much.

Friendly staff,relaxed atmosphere,delicious food,will definitely return.

What an incredibly great place! The service is really friendly, but what is even more important is that the food is of truly high quality. The owner even came over for a chat. We will definitely recommend this restaurant if you are looking for delicious Italian food in the center of Amsterdam.

Great place to eat. Found it by accident. We had the special fish plate which had grilled octopus, fish and shrimp which we highly recommend. Pizza was excellent they accompanied half cheese and half no cheese since my wife is allergic to dairy. All the food they made without dairy specifically for us.

We had a great experience here, so much so we returned a second time with friends who were kind enough to visit from Belgium. The owner and his sons are really nice people and give just wonderful service. The food is fabulous! The caprese salad, spaghetti Parmesan and the carbonara were all perfect. A particular surprise was the molten lava cake that they make on site. When we return to Amsterdam, it will be on our itinerary!

I had pasta parmesan. It was the best food I had ever eaten. It was so good that I went there twice during my three-day stay in Amsterdam. We also had carbonara, lasagna, margherita pizza, and peperoncino. All foods were amazing. The restaurant was clean, and the staff were friendly. I would love to visit Amsterdam again from Japan and visit this restaurant. Thank you.

Italians like me who are looking for Italian places to eat in Amsterdam, this is the place you're looking for! Delicious, light pizza, friendly, courteous, and helpful staff, and a welcoming atmosphere. We also tried the first courses and desserts and loved them! The spaghetti with clams is masterfully executed and truly makes you feel like you're in Italy! The homemade tiramisu is incredibly fresh and creamy. Congratulations, and we hope to see you soon!

Old school! Taste the pasta Parmigiano! Hope it never changes.

Amazing food and quick service! Great pizza in the heart of Amsterdam!

Food was ok, didn't taste much. Staff was nice

It was my birthday and we had such a lovely and tasty dinner party. The service was very good and friendly people! I can advice this place to everybody who want to have a lovely evening together with friends or family!

A very nice, friendly restaurant. Friendly service, attentive staff, and highly recommended overall. It was a bit warm inside, but that was due to the general weekend weather.

Authentic delicious Italian food with exceptionally friendly staff. Reasonable prices. Have been here twice without a need for a reservation. This is my go to Italian restaurant in Amsterdam

What a wonderful experience this was. We had a fantastic meal here, and the atmosphere in the restaurant is very pleasant. Everything served looked fresh and inviting. The freshly baked bread on the wooden board, in particular, was an excellent start to the meal. The dishes were beautifully presented, and the flavors were just right. We will definitely be back here again.

Very nice restaurant with a good atmosphere By the way, also very good service

Great location, atmosphere and wonderful food. Fantastic overall experience

A lovely discovery that we visited twice. Each time the service was quick, the portions generous, and the waitresses friendly and attentive. The Picollo Mondo pasta was truly delicious!

It was a great restaurant before now the qualities has dropped due to cutting cost pasta lobster 32 Euro without lobster pasta seafood without seafood etc Than the drinks became so expensive I paid 11.00 euros for a beer the first time and last time I will never go there any more. When the quality drops end prices go up it’s the end of the restaurant. For us NO Oggie anymore

Absolutely delicious pizza made in their own oven, set off by the perfect red wine. Tucked away down one of Amsterdam's little streets. Attentive staff and aovely happy atmosphere.

A beautiful place, spotlessly clean, excellent food, and a very warm welcome from the staff. As an added bonus, the owner is very friendly and approachable. A must-try.

Delicious food, wonderful service, and nestled in a quiet road near the canals. The owner is the sweetest!! Seen in the picture. He gave me a present to go home with which was beyond nice. They have amazing specials so always ask to see the board. Even when the restaurant is busy, we could still chat and enjoy our company. Went back twice during our stay and can not wait to go back again!

We enjoyed a pleasant evening and dining experience, consisting of a good meal, lively atmosphere, and attentive and helpful restaurant workers that contributed to the enjoyable time.

We ate like we were in Bella Italia. Even in faraway Amsterdam, the Italian spirit is truly alive here. The food was fantastic, just like Nonna would cook. The service was attentive and courteous. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Had a wonderful evening, lovely people, delicious food. Definitely recommended!

Amazing food, cozy vibe, nice people!!

The food was decent, but nothing special. The restaurant was extremely noisy with loud music. The staff were very welcoming and friendly. Avoid this place if you're looking for a quiet dinner.

We had such a delightful time at Ristorante Italia Oggi! The food was authentic Italian--fresh, simple, delicious. The portions substantial. Great value. Super service. Their specials are awesome, particularly their pasta parmigiana which they finish at your table. We highly recommend this ristorante and will go again whenever we travel to Amsterdam.

Very good restaurant with authentic Italian cuisine

We were greeted by the very kind and helpful owner. The food was all good. The chef was Italian. Everything was fine!

Yet another tourist trap. Overpriced for the quality and quantity served. Neither bad nor good, just mediocre. Blaring music. Stick to a pizza; the rest isn't worthy of an Italian restaurant.

Delicious! Great service! Highly recommended!

Absolutely unbelievable. If you come to Amsterdam and don’t come here you’re doing yourself a disservice. The food is like you’re in Italy, the service is personable and attentive without being rushed. One dish after the next just kept getting better. The tomato soup, mushroom risotto and margherita pizza were standouts. To quote my husband, “if I lived in Amsterdam, I’d come here twice a week!”. So delicious and memorable, couldn’t recommend it more! Grazie Mille!

Don't order any appetizers,breads, or salads. You'll get you entree 1.5 hrs later and your pizza dough is gooey and saturated. That's not cheese. Its dough.

It starts with warm welcoming service that tells you straight away it's a family run restaurant. The food and drinks are all very authentic. We had 4 starters, 3 mains and about 10 drinks amongst 4 of us. We are from Australia so it seemed expensive to us but seems about average for area.

There was a cat by the window scratching the window; there was no one inside.

We walked in without a reservation. The staff was friendly and accommodating. We spoke to the chef. He made some recommendations, that we gladly accepted. The beef carpaccio melted in my mouth. But as good as it was, the main course was 100X better! The prawns were spectacular…seasoned perfectly. And the pasta was done expertly! It was the best pasta I have had anywhere in the world. The noodles were cooked perfectly and the sauce to noodles ratio was spot on. I’m not sure how they did it, but the parmigiana simply melted into the dish giving it an ultra creamy richness that I have never experienced. What’s more, the noodles held the heat through out the entirety of dinner, so the last bite was as warm and fresh as the first bite. Bravo. I’m coming back!!

Incredible food. Pictures don’t do it justice 10/10 recommend Great service too

Fantastic little gem! Food delicious and staff very friendly. We’ll certainly return…. very soon.

It is very cozy at Italia Oggi, a restaurant where you can celebrate a party with your family, but can also enjoy a nice meal for two.

Best Italian in Amsterdam, super tasty food and super friendly staff!

The best Italian restaurant in Amsterdam by far and not just in Amsterdam! The atmosphere in this place is absolutely amazing. Every time I’m in Amsterdam, I make a stop there. On top of that, the staff’s kindness is simply unmatched. I highly recommend it.

A lovely little restaurant near Amsterdam's old town. The typical Italian food was delicious. We felt very comfortable.

Very delicious and family like service 👍. Highly recommended!

We had appetizers and pizza Oggi Italia with Parma ham. Fresh and delicious. The wait was a bit long even though it wasn't busy, and it wasn't cheap (€24 for the pizza).

What can I say? February 14th: Hooray for lovers! 20 minutes to receive the Valentine's Day menu. No other menu, that wasn't expected... Oh well. 30 minutes to place the order. We get a bottle of water: yay! Second try: the owner didn't write down our order and jotted down our dishes on a scrap of paper. People are running around like headless chickens for absolutely no service. We still haven't received the two glasses of wine we ordered. We then realize that other tables are getting pasta and pizzas, which aren't on the Valentine's Day menu. But we explain to two young people at the next table that they need to order the Valentine's Day menu. We point this out to the owner, who brings us the menu and says we can change it, that the order hasn't been sent to the kitchen yet... 45 minutes: goodbye everyone... we're outta here! A total tourist trap and a complete rip-off! We're going to eat at the Italian restaurant a little further down... the service, the attention... we can finally breathe.

Yesterday we had a bite to eat at a nice Italian restaurant not far from our house. We were warmly welcomed upon arrival and shown to a great table. The cod was definitely one of my favorites. I often order it at restaurants, but this one was definitely the best. A successful Valentine's Day, well done! 👍

A super nice Italian restaurant with good food and very friendly service. You feel incredibly welcome. Highly recommended!

Friendly staff, and they had a special Valentine's Day menu. The food was great!

We were there late afternoon. It was very quiet. Later, it got a bit busier. We had delicious pasta. And focaccia as a starter, super delicious!! Great service. The toilet was a bit rickety. And it was annoying that you're not allowed to flush toilet paper. But we'll definitely be back!!!

Very slow service, noisy atmosphere. I liked the pizza, yet everything else is below average. I personally would not recommend this place as an Italian restaurant.

Very nice restaurant with Italian atmosphere! Very friendly staff and great service!

Really good food, i would take the pasta if i was you!

I love this restaurant, if it wasn't for their fantastic Pasta Pamigiana, then for their exquisite cheesecake. Always a pleasure to return here! *update* I'm not changing the five stars overall, but yesterday my experience was not as usual. I ordered Melanzana alla Parmigiana as a starter, it took half an hour to arrive and when it did, it was lukewarm. You'd expect this to come straight out of the oven. My main course faired better.

Really delicious food. Cozy and fantastic service.

Great restaurant, I highly recommend it!!

Authentic cuisine, charming setting, and pleasant staff. Thank you! Looking forward to seeing you again.

The welcome was wonderful, the food a delight for the taste buds, fresh ingredients, simple yet incredibly effective preparation! Thank you for this delightful experience at your establishment, and we will definitely be back without hesitation.

Excellent restaurant. Cuisine faithful to Italian tradition. Friendly and courteous staff. Average prices.

I highly recommend it, the food is really excellent!

This is Italian food of very high quality and even far from Italy and with tomatoes that taste like tomatoes in December. The menu is varied, and the prices are absolutely in line with both the food and the wine. The service was very friendly but also a bit chaotic, we were forgotten a couple of times along the way. The waiters literally run around, should there have been one more? The place is cozy and has beautiful murals of Italian landscapes and pictures of Sophia Loren. The overall experience was unfortunately slightly spoiled by a very loud local party, which only got worse the more drunk they got. It would have been appropriate for the restaurateur to ask them to quiet down, but it's a delicate balancing act with paying customers.

Great experience! Truly excellent Italian restaurant in Amsterdam. Authentic cuisine, carefully prepared dishes, and authentic flavors. The staff was exceptional: friendly, professional, and always attentive. I'll definitely be back!

Very friendly staff - happy faces serving us good food ! We went on Christmas evening. Most places were closed but this was open and staff was very warm and welcoming. Place was nicely buzzy, interiors is well done and cozy. We thoroughly enjoyed our meal. My son ordered the pasta bolognese and was fully satiated. Pizza with Tuna also was well done. Food wise, you have good options but the smiling service of the staff won our hearts. Can happily go back.

The food is delicious, the prices are good, and Sergio gave us EXCELLENT service!

The sevice was 10/10 super kind and it was my wifes birthday and they set a music and a cake it was so nice one of the best places

Recommended by a local who has lived in the area all his life. Delicious, authentic Italian food. Warm friendly atmosphere & just a little haven slightly away from the madness of tourist central. Some of the best trattoria Italian we’ve had. We’ll be back!

Delicious food and excellent service!! Very cozy place. We were at this restaurant the last time we traveled to Amsterdam and today we're back again. Spectacular Pasta Parmigiano!! They prepare it right at your table in the cheese itself. Absolutely delicious!!! ☺️❤️☺️

The food is not bad. This place used to be the right combination of good food and reasonable prices. Unfortunately a glass of wine costs 10 euro now! Reason for me not come back again.. paying 100 euro for 2 people, even without a starter is absurd.. sorry

This is our favorite Italian restaurant in Amsterdam. The service, the food, and the ambiance are all 5 stars. We enjoyed the dining experience so much when we came here in 2023 that we returned in 2025 to bring our entire family!
