Spaghetteria Caffè in Helmersbuurt

Food was very good but due to a wrong pasta for the other table, I got the one that was wrong and it was already cold. Nice terras and good flavours. The spaghetti aglio e olio was super! You always get a piece of bread with it.

Really enjoyed the pasta and the tiramisu. Great service. Kitchen closes late.

Amazing food and atmospher, good service. I recomend the ragout it's really good.👍

The order was ready exactly at the time we agreed on by phone. Well packaged, friendly staff. A bit pricey for what you get, though.

Although the menu is limited in variety, we had ravioli, spaghetti, and focaccia. We all loved it! What's more, the waitress was very attentive throughout!

Nice place, too bad there is a very small menu card but the restaurant is different from most pasta restaurants. I am just curious how they would make carbonara or simple bolognese for example.

My wife and I had lunch at Spaghetti Caffe on Sunday 6/7/25. Our Ragu , Aglio Olio Pistachio and soft drinks were prepared and delivered to our table efficiently. The Ragu was good but would better if the sauce was meatier, thicker and richer. The Aglio Olio was very good. The cobs of bread were freshly baked and a lovely accompaniment to the pasta dishes. The staff were friendly and efficient. We recommend Spaghetteria Caffe !!!

Ordered at 13:52 to pick up pasta at 14:30 in the store. I came from Almere, so I had plenty of time to pick up the order. I arrived there at 14:45 because of the huge traffic on the road. The order was not ready and had to be made for some unknown reason. I was of course very irritated because I had clearly indicated that it had to be ready so that I could continue driving to work. After I had indicated that I was not happy, they offered to make it anyway. The pasta would be ready within 2 minutes. That is absolutely unacceptable in my opinion! So I left the store. I will never come here again!

Quaint Italian spot, surprisingly authentic. The lunch ragu or al'arabbiata were honest and filling. Only note: the pasta could be cooked more in the al dente style.

The service is…well typical of Amsterdam but the food is killer!

Amazing pasta. Two times I have been there and both remarkable experiences. The place is a little bit small, but I guess it is its concept.

This restaurant is a little insider tip! The food here is delicious!

Always a nice place for a good pasta. Not the widest range, but strong basic dishes - and that's actually just right. Plus point: long opening hours, also ideal with our little one. Recommended for a relaxed, no-nonsense pasta.

A cozy little spot perfect both for a quick bite or to chill for hours sipping aperol spritz and reading a book. Very welcoming atmosphere and great food!

Delicious and perfect all dente pasta with tasty choices 🥰

Super tasty pasta, nice atmosphere and above all very nice and friendly staff! They took all my allergies into account, which was nice. Recommended!

The pastas and tiramisu were incredibly delicious. I definitely recommend them.

Delicious food and nice people in the service!

Pasta was kind of cold and just average.

Food was very disappointing. Ordered ravioli that was on the menu as 'Ravioli with cream sauce and leek'. No cream sauce or leek in sight, just very boring dry ravioli with a tiny hint of tomato sauce. Unfortunately, I am allergic to tomatoes. Very mediocre.

Super cozy and delicious good traditional pasta

Great food on simple menu. Location and vibe is exceptional. Quite affordable as well.

I will dream of these ravioli for a long time to come! Thank you!

High quality pasta with a short and effective menu

Really nice! The food is good and the service was great!

Went there for lunch, the portions are bigger than expected and it tastes very good. They served warm bread along with the dishes. Great service.

Specialized in pasta and it shows. It's finger-licking good. By the way, the salads aren't bad either. You can eat there (recommended) or pick up.

We were treated super nice, we arrived 45min before dinner time by mistake and we were attended very kindly, the food was very good in quality and quantity, they advised us with the wine and the attention was adequate and permanent. We will come back, we felt at home.

Another great Italian spot in this part of town. Small but excellent menu. The ravioli and venison ragu are both current favs. Good wine menu and the service is always spot on. Atmosphere is more of a cafe or eatery style, which suits the menu perfectly. Great coffee too!

Super nice place to have a delicious meal. Small but nice menu and nice service! Tip: think about your choice of music and don't turn it up too loud

Very rich! Those who serve are very friendly

Very good value for money. The plate of pasta is very generous. The bread is crispy. We shared the tiramisu which was light and very good.

The clerk is very friendly and the pasta is delicious. Today I ordered ravioli and pistachio pasta ~ I ate them all😋

So glad to chanced upon this cafe! We had the most delicious lunch in Amsterdam! Thank you so much!

Nice discovery that this restaurant tested one lunchtime. Thank you for the welcome!

very tasty pasta, came back here for the second time. a good waiter who forgets which drink was ordered (but this does not prevent 5 stars)

Delicious pasta, really nice atmosphere! Definitely recommend

The dish was undercooked, both the pasta and the sauce. Pieces of raw garlic and the sauce needed longer to come together. Service slow despite only a handful of diners. Seemed like the chef was having to do front of house duties himself.

Very enjoyed my lunch here. Amazing food, lovely service and in a very nice part of the city

amazing food and friendly staff

One of the best spaghetti I have ever eaten. With garlic and pistachio, delicious.

It seems like dog food that cannot be eaten

Ordered pasta with shrimps, I only got 4 shrimps, the cream sauce doesn't taste like rooom! Little taste and I asked without tomato, but I still got tomatoes. I left the pasta because I really didn't like the pasta, and I still had to pay 18.50 for a pasta which was not worth it at all 🙃🙃🙃🙃🙃🙃 super bad! If you want to save money I would never eat here

Great place just like all the other ones around Amsterdam.

It was the best pasta in my life! Try Papardelle con ragu, the taste is so good. Nice staff and good italian music!

I started with a campari spritz, and then got the Toscana and fennel salad. My wife got the bruschetta. It was so good! Don't pass on the complimentary lemon cello. It's a fun way to end the meal.

Overrated, xru xru Beer is good, pasta :(

Had lovely dinner with family of four. Friendly service, great food and drinks. Loved the authentic Italian vibe of fun atmosphere! Recommend

Unfortunately, only the name and the background music are Italian. Expensive dishes that not only do not meet expectations, but are also poorly prepared and have nothing to do with Italy: I start from the fact that the menu has numbers for each course, I expressed my order by showing the numbers on the menu, another dish was brought to me. The menus are not removed, and while eating I find these menus thrown haphazardly on the table. My friend's plate, full of garlic, while mine, 6-8 ravioli immersed in cream with an aftertaste of fake truffle that was the only thing that remained in my mouth until late at night. If you are Italian, perhaps you should take advantage of the holidays to go back and refresh your ideas on how to cook and taste, so as not to use ready-made products of questionable quality.

Really good. Quoting a kid in the restaurant: it is Italian approved

The environment is comfortable and the pasta is amazing!

For being in Amsterdam, the prices are reasonable, the portion is fair, but you have to understand that lunch there is something light, yes, the ravioli are delicious.

Mid-March and a very beautiful sunny day in Amsterdam. As a pasta lover, I am regularly looking for a good pasta. This spaghetteria cafe had three nice sunny tables outside. We took the plunge and asked if it was possible to make 3 small pastas, together the size of 1 portion. This was possible after consultation with the chef. It's nice if something extra is possible, but that is usually difficult for many restaurants. They also creatively solved the price, so they checked each dish at the cash register and took 50% off. I think that's very neat. The chef himself came out on the terrace to explain them. Three completely different pastas, all made with love, and the flavors were perfect. The ragout pasta was my personal favorite. Compliments also to the young lady at the counter who was friendly, quick and helpful. Good oil and balsamic vinegar are standard on the table with a fine salt and pepper mill. Every restaurant should also provide a (free) carafe of tap water on the table without asking. I would say just sit down at this spot and enjoy the spectacle of traffic passing by...

Attractive place and the food was delivered very quickly. Just think the place is a bit overhyped. I have eaten there twice now and both times the pasta was not very tasty and this time it even contained raw garlic, which gave me extreme stomach pain all evening.

Great place for dinner, friendly waitress, and amazing food, do recommend!

We walked in at 8:30 PM on Sunday and got some proper Italian pasta and great service.

Spectacular!! They serve you a piece of bread with the pasta, which is magnificent.

Friendly service. Gluten free options.

Delicious cappuccino, Ciabatta with mortadella and burrata is also super tasty, nice lunch menu First time I had delicious pasta with ragú from conquillas. Thank you Sammy for the best service.

Authentic feeling, friendly staff, and amazing food. Highly recommended.

Delicious, mild food, no heavy flavors, excellent service, cozy and quiet place.

Good food in itself. Very small portions though. So I indicated that I would still like some pasta. You can also order half a portion, said the nice waiter. Good idea I thought. I see on the bill that not half but 75% is charged. When I asked the waiter for an explanation why he had not mentioned this when ordering, he said that his boss did not have to tell him that. Okay, I thought, so it's happened before! It's a pity. To be honest, it takes the longest and otherwise I would have ordered a whole portion for such a small difference. Small starter, 1.5 portion of main course and a few wines for 66 euros and I left hungry. From now on I'll eat at home because I live down the street.

One of the best dinners in Amsterdam! All very good and of super quality!

Great little Italian place off the beaten path

Everything is perfect! Food, service, atmosphere.. Flawless! Child and pet friendly.

Got 5 sandwiches for lunch. 11 euros each. That was very disappointing! Wouldn't have wanted to pay more than 4 euros for it. Cracking taste! Prepared with little love and passion. The basics were on the sandwich and it was nothing more than that. They tried to boost the taste with half a bag of arugula on the sandwich, but it didn't work. I really wouldn't order or have dinner here. In short, not recommended!

Finally good coffee which is hard to find in this whole city - real Italian espresso not this acidic hipster coffee. At a very fair price, too. Nice attentive personnel and good atmosphere

Best tiramisu in Amsterdam, hands down! Definitely visiting again.

Pedimos una ciabatta y unos spaguettis con pistacho y aceite de ajo. Todo buenisimo, muy recomendable.

Deze Spag is een aanrader voor lunch en diner! Low key Italiaans tentje van de Spaghettaria chain aan de bruisende JP Heijestraat. AANVULLING 26-10-2023 Deze Spag op de JP heij, maakt je blij. Niet zomaar een spag maar een spag kroeg. Met de nieuwe aanwinst, Seppe, komt het helemaal goed! Uiteraard onder supervisie van de topper JaVa 🌟

One of many great authentic Italian restaurants that you can find in Amsterdam city. The food is absolutely delicious and freshly made. Pasta as it should be, simple yet delicious and full of flavour!! The crew is friendly and helpful. It’s great to see the crew at work in the open kitchen. The interior is welcoming and feels homely. I did not make a reservation, I was a walk-in on a Monday early afternoon around 1.30pm. I was the only customer at that time, so it was nice to have the entire restaurant to myself. I had the “Spaghetti ala chitarra con aglio eolio”. Which is Spaghetti with olive oil, chili peppers, garlic, parsley and Pecorino Romano cheese. It was really good and the fresh baked bread is a perfect vehicle to accompany the pasta and to scoop up the olive oil and herbs to clean up the plate. For drinks I had the peach juice and for dessert I had their tiramisu. It was creamy, had a good consistency and most importantly it was not overly sweet. Definitely recommended to spend some time here by yourself or with friends and/or family and enjoy some delicious authentic Italian goodness!!

Generally, I’m not a fan of the pastas at the Spag, but I’ve decided to have another attempt after some time and I must say that it was well worth the decision. I ordered the pasta with deer meat and wow, this was so tender and flavoured. If you’re headed here, take my advice and order that one! One less impressive thing is the tiramisu, it tastes as though they’ve diluted the flavour and overall texture. Not a fan.

Amazing service, fresh pasta, amazing dessert, and Moris provided excellent services. It’s in the little details that make a difference and this restaurant got it. :):) thanks for a great experience

Beste Spaghetti Alio Olio. Mit Pistazien.

Fabulous place for dinning. Excellent service

I ve been here for lunch, i ordered a spaghetto alla chitarra oil and garlic, with pistach. Pasta was al dente (of course), and was balanced. There was no one ingredient that could cover the taste or texture of another one...and it has been smart from the chef manuel (or emanuele) the paprika on top and not mixed. 1st for the color and 2nd for the taste. The server Samantha was lovely, i am ANNOYING about drinks, but without killing me she made me a spritz perfect (i do not like so much aperol in it). I will be back. Vote 5. I am a waitress, so i am sure about my review. Well done team!!

Nice place to get your pasta fix 😁

Place with italian food and drinks. Here is warm servise, good cocktail, big portions, resonable price. When we payed the bill they offered to us limonchello. We were nice treated.

Se volete mangiare il vero spaghetto all'italiana questo è il posto ideale, grazie alle mani magiche dello chef Manuel e del suo staff estremamente gentile e professionale. Vi consiglio gli spaghetti al pistacchio e la panna cotta con crumble di biscotti.

Really good food and a really hot chef. What more could you want?

Deze spaghetteria is mijn favoriete locatie in de stad en ik kom hier dan ook met veel plezier. Het eten is lekker, de sfeer goed en de medewerkers heel aardig!

Super lekker en voor een mooie prijs, echte aanrader!

Vriendelijk personeel, geweldige tiramisu

Comida riquisima ,atención excelente 👌

Just brilliant. Do yourself a favour and try the sgroppino!

Lovely place on the corner to have some decent pasta. Thank you!

Excellentes pâtes, très bon rapport qualité-prix. Le tiramisu est très bon aussi et assez grand pour deux. Eau gratuite.

tiramisu was delicious, pasta was simple and yummy. indoors, there’s only bar seating. we sat outside, where there was a dirty fork covered in sauce and spilled food under our table

Fermatevi qui e basta. Porzioni abbondanti da pasta servite con la genialata di un bel tozzo di pane per fare scarpetta una volta finito, pulire il piatto e riconsegnarlo lindo pronto per essere riempito di nuovo. Dolcetti e limoncello finale per ammazzare quello che è rimasto vivo giusto in caso. Samantha serve tutti con un sorriso, dando un tocco veneto all'accoglienza di povere anime affamate, e specialmente assetate.

De Penne arrabiata waren verrassend goed. De pasta met worst was goed van smaak, maar erg droog Iets meer panna chef en ook dat gerecht had goed geweest

My favourite lunch place in oud west

Very good pasta in Amsterdam! I had the Tangliatelle and it was delicious.
