Roberto's Restaurant Amsterdam in Apollobuurt

Wait for more than 30 minutes after the first starter. I told the waiter 3 times, but I ignored him. I waited for more than an hour. The child has already fallen asleep. No matter how busy he is. Isn't there order and order

Very friendly staff and amazing food.

I didn’t dine in the restaurant, so I can’t vouch for service or atmosphere. I only want to rate the Eggplant Parmigiana I ordered to my room. The person who made it had to be Sicilian or have lived there. It brought back memories. Five stars for the parmigiana.

Here’s a polished English review you could post: ⸻ Had dinner at Roberto’s Restaurant in Amsterdam, and it was great from start to finish. I ordered the basa fish with vegetables, accompanied by rosemary potatoes, and I was very impressed with the quality and preparation. The fish was delicate, perfectly cooked, and beautifully presented. The vegetables were fresh and well-seasoned, complementing the dish without overpowering it. The rosemary potatoes deserve a special mention – lightly outside, soft and tender on the inside, and seasoned just right. They were full of flavor, not burnt or oily, and prepared with great attention to detail. Beyond the food, the atmosphere of the restaurant adds to the experience. Roberto’s is located in a beautiful part of Amsterdam, with elegant surroundings that make it a wonderful place for an evening out. The service was attentive yet relaxed, creating a welcoming environment without being overwhelming.

Great restaurant inside the hotel. Servers were friendly and efficient. Food was also top of notch.

We had a wonderful dinner tonight – the food was excellent and truly enjoyable. A special thanks to Mr. Francesco, whose attentive and thoughtful service made the evening even more memorable. We sincerely appreciate his warm hospitality and professionalism.

This place belongs in a rundown motel, not a Hilton. Do yourself a favor and avoid making Roberto’s your first dinner in the Netherlands—you’ll get the wrong impression of Dutch hospitality. Everywhere else we dined, people were warm, welcoming, and kind. The staff here were the complete opposite: rude, condescending, dismissive, and left us waiting endlessly for even the basics—water, food, the bill. Unfortunately, the attitude matched the food. Mediocre at best: bland, under-seasoned, and uninspired. Nothing memorable except how unpleasant the experience was. If you want to enjoy your time in Amsterdam, skip Roberto’s. Don’t waste your evening (or your appetite) on subpar service and McDonald’s-grade food. The Dutch are way better than this.

Im in Amsterdam for my birthday gift from my husband. The food is magnificent, delicious excellent and tasty, the servers know your worth and treat you like royalty. Thanks for your gradatude and kindness on my birthday. We'll will be back. The Rose's (va)

What a disappointment, high expectations but we both became seriously ill after the spoiled tuna, a disgrace!!

The staff was so lovely, the food delicious. Just a perfect way to celebrate my 60th birthday and 20th anniversary just with the 2 of us.Thank you for giving us such a nice time.

One of the best places in Amsterdam

One of those Italian restaurants where the chef makes truly Italian food, when you sigh blissfully after each forkful you put in your mouth. Parmigiana di melanzane - I love it, I try it everywhere, but often, alas, it swims in oil or is bitter, but here it just melts in your mouth unnoticed. Triglia alla mediterranea - a very nice sandwich with fish that looks like a red mullet, I don't like fish, but here I snatched two forks from my husband. Penne alla norma - that same thick, rich tomato sauce with pieces of eggplant. Absolutely delicious sea bass baked with vegetables in parchment. My husband ate coroletta di tonno and cried with happiness. The children gobbled up pollo alla cacciatora in a few minutes, and I think they wouldn't mind repeating it. In general, the food was unexpectedly very pleasing. The atmosphere is interesting - it's like being in the early 20th century, we were there for dinner on Thursday and were lucky - a wonderful jazz singer performed accompanied by a keyboard player. We really liked everything, we will definitely come back!

21/07/2025 Very nice atmosphere. Great selection of Italian cuisine from multiple regions. The sea bass and lasagna were delicious. Loved the tiramisu. Our server Francesco was so pleasant. He did a fantastic job. Grazie Francesco.

Francesco and Daniel were amazing. The food was delicious. The restaurant is beautiful.

My server, Eugenia met me at my table with a smile and sincerity I haven’t seen or felt in an establishment in a long time.. I have traveled for 20 plus years, I travel internationally and I would highly recommend ROBERTO’S AMSTERDAM for a great Italian dining experience…the food the atmosphere and the service are world class… nice wine selection

Francesco provided excellent service serving delicious, unique Italian dishes. Attention to details in both the food and the service made this a remarkably memorable dining experience.

Nice dinner! Eugenia was wonderful!

Loved the food, atmosphere, and service! Eugenia did a wonderful job and gave great recommendations.

Marco, our wine server, was amazing 👍👍 , Also Eugenia, our food waitress was very good

Delicious food, Eugenia and Joran helped us fantastically and very friendly. The food was sublime! Too bad about the guitarist, who was too present. It was not background music, the guitar sounded just too loud, so you could not hear the singer well and that was a great pity.

Very nice diner.Good Italian cuisine and nice service from Francesco!

Francesco excellent server, personality, wonderful smile.

Amazing food! the service was also amazing, especially our waiter Francesco! Thank you very much, and I will be back soon!

It took us almost 2 hours for a cutlet and 5 pasta dishes to arrive. The burrata was not with buffalo mozzarella and it wasn't anything else either. But the carpaccio and eggplant were delicious. The atmosphere wasn't bad but I think a 4\5 would have been worth it. Overall the rating for this mediocre Italian restaurant is 3/5, or rather 3.5/5.

Beautiful restaurant located inside Hilton. Atmosphere was gorgeous and staff were very professional. My husband went with Ultimate Italian Feast which came with one starter, one Maui and one dessert. That was a great value! Carpaccio Cipriani was so well prepared! I’m not a fan of beef carpaccio but i thoroughly enjoyed it. Red prawn tartar was dressed with gold flakes on top- so fancy! It had similar texture like having sashimi ebi and it was great. My daughter had a beet salad and that was the dish to remember. As for entree, my husband’s lamb was tasty and well cooked. Side dish was well seasoned. My linguini a la vongole was tasty but way too salty. That’s the only reason for 4 stars, others it would have been 5! Overall we enjoyed our dinner at Roberto’s.

Our waiter was Francesco he was very atte

Wonderful experience at Roberto’s! The food was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, perfect for a relaxing evening out. Special shoutout to Vito, whose service was friendly, attentive, and genuinely made us feel welcome. Highly recommend.

Thanks Francesco for the lovely support you gave. Very happy with the service and the food. Looking forward to come back soon.

Frencesco was amazing Great energy and great service thank you

We had a very lovely dinner in Amsterdam at Roberto’s at the Amsterdam Hilton. Our server, Gugōnia was especially attentive and helpful with the menu. My wife and I had the Sea Bass which we found to be delicious and expertly presented. Highly recommended for a romantic evening!

Excellent evening, delicious dinner, professional, friendly and nice staff. Francesco's service was fantastic.

Some of the best Italian food I’ve had outside of Italy, and that includes New York, Boston and Toronto! Simply incredible!

Had a wonderful experience at Roberto’s! Eugenie was absolutely amazing . incredibly friendly, warm, and attentive. She made us feel right at home from the moment we walked in. Her genuine smile and positive energy added so much to the meal. Great service really makes a difference, and Eugenie went above and beyond to celebrate my birthday. Can’t wait to come back!

Very good experience. Francesco and the rest of the staff was friendly and professional. Highly recommend the chef’s special shrimp pasta.

I love this hotel restaurant. The food is exquisite. I was able to have a zero proof sparkling rose! Also Eugenia was a lovely server, the whole staff was incredible. Macro the manager was very upfront about the dinner wait for food since it was during dinner rush setting clear expectations. Meal is the lasagna

It was a lovely dinner in Roberto’s Amsterdam. Nice atmosphere, delicious food and great service by Eugenia!

Vito and eugenia were fabulous !!! So fun eoth our group of four! We are from Italy

Real Italian food in Amsterdam! Outstanding service from a real Italian! Ask for Francesco - a true professional. Great job.

We had a fantastic dinner and Vito was amazing! Highly recommend

Great service. Vitto was knowledgeable and attentive to our needs. Great food recommendations

I decided to have a birthday dinner for my girlfriend and it was an excellent decision. All the staff, especially Franceso, welcomed us fantastically and made sure we always had everything we needed. The place is very pretty, very nice and harmonious atmosphere.

Fransesco was very polite and willing to help us choose our dishes !

Great food and service! Highly recommend it. Francesco was amazing at giving us a great experience.

I had dinner with the girls and we had such an amazing time. The food was delicious (authentic Italian with high quality ingredients), the service great and we enjoyed the elegant but chilly atmosphere of the restaurant. Highly recommended! I also suggested the place to a friend of mine for his proposal and she said yes! 🎈

The service here is top notch. The food delicious. But the musicians played way too loud, out of tune and messy and after 30 minutes blood came out of our ears. We won't be coming back here for a while

They charge too much on the receipt in the hope you won’t notice. You get also an attitude and bad service from Marco!!! Won’t be eating here again

Excellent buffet breakfast, especially omelette. Service for breakfast and dessert was excellent and courteous.

We had a very nice evening at Roberto’s with an excellent dinner. The plates were served in Venetian Carnaval style which is very colourful. Roberto’s has a very consistent quality of food and pays special attention to the ambiance and to your well-being. Their aim is to create a very nice experience. Their service upon entry and at the table is always so friendly, they have a way of making you feel very welcome and comfortable. Tonight we had Francesco and Anastasiia at our table, who explained the nature of our dishes and made sure we were able to enjoy the culinary surprises. Would recommend Roberto’s any time.

Excellent service, tasty food, not cheap, but not expensive either.

The restaurant has a very nice atmosphere with a warm and inviting vibe. The service was excellent, attentive, and friendly. However, the vegetarian options were quite limited. That said, the food I did try was enjoyable and well-prepared. A great place overall, it would be even better with a broader veg selection.

Impeccable service, I thank Francesco for the advice on dishes and for the truly perfect service. The dishes however are sublime, especially the risotto and carpaccio!!

Today I visited your restaurant with my family, I liked everything very much, the food was delicious, the atmosphere was pleasant, and the waitress Anastasia was very attentive and nice, the evening was successful! We wish you prosperity!

I would definitely recommend eating here. Went here for an fantastic valentines dinner. Every dish of mine was absolutely perfect and tasted as if I was on holiday in Italy. The staff was very polite and helped us good with decisions. The only downsides were that the portions of my partners plate were on the smaller side so unfortunately he was still a little hungry after our meal. And we were sitting next to the lovely live music, but it was just a little too loud.

The food and atmosphere at Roberto's are great, although the service could be better. My partner and I went here for Valentine's Day and enjoyed some options from the special menu options that were available, including Foie Gras. The menu was great and very interesting, and wine recommendations were on point. We will definitely go back here.

An absolutely fantastic restaurant. The service was simply incredible and we ate very well there. Go for it without hesitation!

Very good and true authentic Italian kitchen. Very good service.

Excellent evening with Vito as waiter. Our table was always full of great food and amazing wines. Would absolutely recommend.

Nice thing. It wasn't busy, but things were a bit slow. Delicious food but left hungry due to small portions.

Good quality food, service can be faster.

Roberto’s is a lovely restaurant at the historic Hilton Amsterdam (where John Lennon and Yoko Ono had their bed-in). The three set menus are a very good deal and you will be well looked after by the enthusiastic, charming, and attentive servers Francesco, Vitto, and Anastasia.

The food was good, but the staff was rude and highly unmotivated. It's a pity for a place like this.

Wonderful food and great service as always. Thank you Francesco!

Francesco was a very good waiter this evening. A real Italian who has a lot of knowledge about the food and wines and gave a lot of attention to his guests. In terms of setting, you expect to pay more, but the prices on the menu are very reasonable.

We were there for New Year's Eve dinner and unfortunately a bit disappointed with the service and the food. It started well, we were warmly greeted and shown to the very cozy table by the fireplace. After that, no one cared about us anymore, we had to signal to the waiter ourselves that after almost 15 minutes we would like to have at least some water to drink. Everything was then recorded at the same time, so that we had a forest of aperitif, wine and water glasses on the table. Bread and starters were really good, both pasta dishes were unfortunately rather boring and have been eaten better elsewhere. So unfortunately nothing special, but we decided on a high-class restaurant for New Year's Eve. Two ladies from the service (manager and supervisor?) helped us very nicely with questions and contributed a lot to making it a nice evening overall.

Vito was very impressive. He suggested great-offerings. Good was delicious and a very friendly staff.

Great business dinner, toplocation and service by Francesco!

I liked the whole experience. Very interesting menu, professional staff, fresh and high-quality food, and elegant presentation.

Francesco provided great service for our dining experience. The food selection and fine dining experience was exceptional. I loved the white lining and red decorative accent pillows. I truly recommend Roberto's.

We were able to get a last minute reservation on a very busy evening. The atmosphere was warm and sophisticated and our service was excellent. Francesco was an amazing host. Lastly, and most importantly, the food was delicious.

What a wonderful journey through the flavors of the Italian peninsula! Thanks to the team for the care and great welcome you provided through the entire evening.

Vito was a great server! Food was wonderful.

Great dinner. We were treated very well by out waiter Vito.

Everything delicious. Beautiful atmosphere. Vito was thoughtful.

Great food, relaxed ambience and excellent service. Thanks Naomi and the rest of the team.

Vito was great!!! Amazing service

Epic dinner vito ate and so did we 🔥🔥

Amazing restaurant! Vito was an amazing server!

Vito gave us an amazing service. The food is great.

During our stay at the hotel, we couldn’t get enough of the wonderful breakfasts at this amazing restaurant—it will always hold a special place in our minds. There are plenty of healthy options for kids, and the dinner is guaranteed delicious too.

Food was inconsistent, one plate of linguine tasted terribly salty while the other wasn’t. Service is rather slow and unattentive at times.

The steak and clam pasta are very delicious, the atmosphere is great, and the surrounding environment is great. It's a very good dining experience.

Wonderful experience. Vito was awesome and even remembered our wine selections from the night before.

Our server was Vito who super accommodating and handled our requests effortlessly and willingly

The best thing was the steak, “the meat is delicious,” but the rest was very ordinary.

Naomi and the rest of the staff were excellent and very attentive.

Great evening! Super evening with Italian Simone, weekend with live music

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Roberto's restaurant and I must say that the experience was exceptional in many ways. Quality of service Since our arrival, we have been welcomed with great professionalism and warmth. The staff were incredibly attentive, making sure our every need was met. Their preparation and commitment to ensuring a high quality experience is evident and made our evening truly special. Great Food The food was simply divine. Each dish was prepared with fresh, high-quality ingredients, and presented impeccably. The flavors were well balanced and each course was a taste discovery. I highly recommend trying the swordfish, simply delicious! Friendliness of the Staff In addition to their expertise, the staff proved to be extremely friendly and helpful. The waiter who served us was very pleasant and made the atmosphere even more pleasant with his friendly and professional approach. Beautiful Location The restaurant is located in a truly fascinating location. The environment is elegant and welcoming, with decoration taken care of down to the smallest details. Whether for a romantic dinner or an evening with friends, it offers a perfect setting for any occasion. Wine at Wrong Temperature, but Excellent Timing of Staff The only small downside of the evening was the wine, which was initially served to us at a less than ideal temperature. However, as soon as we pointed this out, the staff reacted promptly and professionally, replacing the bottle with one at the right temperature very quickly. This further demonstrated the restaurant's attention to detail and customer satisfaction. In conclusion, it is a restaurant that I highly recommend. The combination of great food, high quality service, friendly staff and a beautiful setting made our evening unforgettable. I can't wait to go back!

Garçon Simone was super attentive, and they were all very friendly. Highly recommended!

Thanks Vito e Leila for this beautiful experience. Everything was perfect, from the food to the service. The attention for the details was outstanding. Thank you guys!

Service and food was amazing. Thanks to Vito and Leila for the hospitality. The did of a dinner a wonderful experience

We had a great moments for our first anniversary, the atmosphere was great and relaxing. I highly recommend it

Wonderful evening outside enjoying classic - and very delicious - Italian food. Thank you Vito!

Great restaurant. Super professional service. Waiters were amazing. Food was excellent.

We had dinner at Alberto’s on our last night in Amsterdam and it’s the best place we’ve dined in while in the city. We ordered the t-bone steak and it was fantastic. The meat was tasty and perfectly done to our liking. We also ordered the carpaccio which was nice and the gluten free chocolate cake which was also great. Wine was of good quality at a decent price. But above all, the service was impeccable and Andrea did an amazing job making sure we are looked after. When asked about where the t-bone meat came from, he was knowledgeable which was impressive. We’ve stayed in many Hilton hotels and dined in many Hilton hotel restaurants and this is easily the best we’ve been so far. Highly recommended and we’ll definitely return when we are back in Amsterdam!

Really delicious food and the waiter Simone was super friendly.

Good food, good service by our waiter Simone did great! The ragu pasta was amazing.

Carpaccio was rathet disappointing for a restaurant at this calibre. Overall experience is very good as usual. Good service, nice hospitality by Vito.

Great! I've been coming here for 14 years and it remains consistently good. Recommended if you like Italian cuisine in combination with an “old chic” atmosphere.

Chef Stefano prepared the most delicious meals ever! Sea bass with broccoletti and home made pasta with goat cheese in a spring pea sauce!

We went to Roberto's for the first time to celebrate my boyfriend's birthday and enjoyed a beautiful evening. The food was delicious and the wine recommendation by Matteo was superb. The staff went above and beyond not only with a little birthday surprise dessert, but even arranged for some off the menu scroppinos. Again, delicious. Overall, the staff was incredibly attentive and exactly as you would expect from a restaurant of this level. Thank you so much for the evening, Leila, Elisabeth, and Matteo! We are looking forward to come back soon!
