Volare in Chassébuurt

Thank you very much for wonderful atmosphere, great service and yummy food

Just one of the best Italian restaurants I've been to. The staff is welcoming, the atmosphere is exceptional. All the dishes are delicious, the products are fresh and homemade and you can feel it. Special mention to the provola e pepe pizza and their pistachio tiramisu dessert!

We had a nice corner table for a birthday dinner. The starters were fast, calamari was super good. But the waiter took it away even though we were still eating. Then two of the pastas my friend ordered were served cold, so they asked for new ones. They got new ones after the rest of us finished our food and it was apparently too cheesy although it was a truffle pasta. Two other friends’ pastas were also too salty. I ordered a pizza with anchovies and even without the anchovies it was way too salty. It didn’t feel authentic but the restaurant interior was very beautiful and spacious. It’s nice for pictures but for food I would not really recommend. There were these frat boys who came with a big group and were being a complete menace. They were super loud, rude, and disrespectful. Everyone in the restaurant was uncomfortable. They would yell and swear, sing songs without being mindful of other customers. Some of them even threw up on the table which instantly made some of us lose our appetite. I wish someone would have told them to quiet down. I don’t think i would come here again but if they work on their service and taste better then it has potential to be a restaurant with better ratings.

Normally I always enjoy coming to Volare (I live in the same street), but unfortunately I did not have a good experience last Thursday evening, 11/28/24. The five of us had made a reservation at 7:00 PM, and the entrance was as good and welcoming as ever. We ordered five pizzas and each a drink and a bread basket in advance. The wine we received was very sour, but after indicating this, the person who kindly served us all evening gave us a new glass, which was great. At one point it was already after 8:00 PM and the pizza still wasn't there. The person who helped us neatly indicated that it was really coming soon. Then it still took a while, and then she came to indicate that we were getting a drink on the house as an apology. Very nice, so we all ordered a drink. However, only two came at first, and then we had to ask for the others twice more - the last one came when the pizza was almost gone (not really the best way to make up for something if you have to "nag" about it yourself) . After 8:30 PM the pizza finally arrived, but by now we were already a bit over hungry after the long wait. Two pizzas were quite cold, and some of the crusts were burnt. We ate some of it, but when the waiter came to collect the plates, we honestly said that it was a bit disappointing; We hadn't eaten a large portion either. She politely indicated that she found it annoying and was going to discuss it. We ordered two more tiramisu to end the evening nicely, and they were just as good and delicious as always. When we wanted to pay, the person who had kindly served us all evening was apparently no longer working, and someone came to the table who had not helped us with the bill all evening. The bill was incorrect (the drinks we had received from the "house" were listed on it, and there had been no feedback regarding the pizzas). We explained this again to the person, and she would discuss it. Then this took a long time again, and we decided to get up to pay the bill ourselves. There we found the girl in question busy talking to another colleague (I think the manager). Instead of taking stock and apologizing for the mistakes that had clearly been made at our table, the colleague in charge behaved very aggressively and unfriendly. She said that we had not waited that long at all (she could see it in the system), and that the pizzas could not have been cold (there were heat lamps) - we should have indicated this (which we did at the person who helped us, but clearly there had been no transfer from the person who had stopped her shift and/or the manager was not aware of our table). She also told us that there was a new girl in the service, so she couldn't do much about it. After a whole evening of just being patient and kind, this really went the wrong way and we now became a bit irritated to be approached in this way, and then as Christmas on the cake she also said that she was our " attitude" didn't like. Not really the welcoming or reflective attitude you'd expect after a disappointing evening full of mistakes. Ultimately, with pain and effort, the drinks and two pizzas could be removed, but a "nice evening" was almost impossible and we still had to pay 87 euros for an evening that went like this. Very unfortunate, because it is normally a very nice and cozy place, but there was little hospitality and service this evening. I won't be going there anymore for the time being, and I wouldn't recommend it to others either.

The burrata was mid, everything else was really good. The place is really nice. I would recommend

No remarks. Great and attentive people working there, food is delish, cocktails are SUPER good (and strong in a good way) and the vibes are immaculate. 10/10 recommend

They have the BEST cocktails in amsterdam

Most Stunning Italian restaurant in Amsterdam-West!! Britt and Vlada special shoutout for making our visit so comfortable and always ready to assist us!! Wonderful staff, stunning decor and vibes and the taste of the pizza, pasta and tiramisu was INCREDIBLE! A trio that stole our heart forever!'❤️🍝🍰🍕

Really tasty food that would not be out of place in Rome or Florence!

Margherita (Neapolitan) takeaway €14 Rating 7/10

THE BEST PIZZA I HAVE EATEN IN MY LIFE! Anyone who says otherwise has no taste!! Trusted! TRUFFLE PIZZA

I checked the allergens for different dishes and chose one that based on the allergens menu, it not contain gluten. I do not have an issue with cross contamination but I can not eat gluten itself. I mentioned this to the waitress and she said she would request the dish to be made indeed gluten free, which was weird since the menu said it did not contain it. Fast forward 30 mins after leaving the restaurant I started to feel unwell, vomited and same next day (among other symptoms I only get when I am intoxicated with gluten) the rest of the food I ate that day prior to the restaurant was 100% gluten free, so the intoxication could only come from what I ate at this restaurant

Nice, ambient place. Unfortunately the staff doesn’t really pay attention to their guests so we were waiting a long time on our entrants and main courses. Eventually we had to remind them in order to get our food. Entrants were nothing special. Pizzas were undercooked and unfortunately the manager wasn’t very polite when we told her about our experience.

Het was de bedoeling om een fantastische avond te hebben met ons gezin bij Volare. Ik ken het restaurant en had het daarom aan waan mijn gezin om daar te gaan dineren. Wat een teleurstelling werd het. Het eten is er zeker niet slecht maar sommige gerechten juist weer wel. De bediening is enorm met zichzelf bezig en totaal geen overzicht. Wij hebben simpelweg een zeer slechte ervaring met dit diner.

Good service, nice atmosphere. There is not even one pasta option with tomato sauce and also every pizza that has meat on it is spicy (except the calzone) which makes the menu very unbalanced.

I happened to stop by this restaurant because it was near the hotel. I liked that the bathroom was clean and spacious. The food was very delicious, but the beer was a bit disappointing. I recommend it because the pizza is delicious. Meal for 4, 90 euros.

What a great tent. Everything came quickly and we had a delicious meal outside with a group. Food is perfect for sharing

The pasta of fennel sausage and friarielli is absolutely declicous, remove 1 star because the portion is too small

The food was delicious and the pizza is definitely recommended. Service was chaotic and made a mistake with the starter, the bill, often bumped into our table and had to ask for a table bottle of water even with wine. This while other tables did receive this. Furthermore, a nice restaurant with a nice ambiance.

Very nice restaurant, with friendly and sweet service! The food is super tasty, but the pasta is a bit small to have as a main course. That is why it is also a primi.

Nice place, good food. Music choice not quite ok...a bit too present and a bit loud. Otherwise fine

We had a group menu which was very expensive for the product, especially if you're vegetarian in the group, we could not eat much. Very basic pizza and pasta. Service and atmosphere were okay, nice music.

Delicious food with very pleasant service!

La comida era deliciosa. No teníamos reserva y era sábado por la noche, pero nos sentaron cuando prometimos que no nos quedaríamos más de una hora y media. Sin duda volvería aquí de nuevo. Era el Día de los Caídos y todo el restaurante estuvo completamente en silencio a las 8 pm durante dos minutos. Fue muy conmovedor.

Tasty food, but terribly small portions. 16 people going home hungry.

This place was close to where we were staying (the Chasse Hotel). We went in relatively early to eat dinner and sat in the bar area, which is known as Bomboloni's. The staff were friendly and helpful. I had the agliatelle with ragout of ossobuco & oxtail. It was rich and quite tasty. We don't remember what my husband had, but we know it was good.

I visited this place in April and had an awful experience. The service was terrible. We had to repeat our order several times, yet some of the items never arrived. When we asked for the bill, I paid it along with tips. Only after paying, I realized there were many extra items on the bill. To make matters worse, the waiter seemed to be drunk and was more interested in chatting with his friends than serving us. We had to wait for another bill, which I paid again, and the waiter assured us that the previous transaction would be declined. Unfortunately, that was not the case, and I ended up spending an extra 130 euros.

The pizza and burrata were great, but the homemade focaccia was just ok. I still would have given this place a 5-star review but the service was pretty bad. Wait staff was too busy talking to friends where we had to wave and get up to get their attention.

Have been here a few times now with a big group, the food has been excellent each time. The drinks sometimes take a bit longer to come but overall the service is really friendly and it’s a great atmosphere inside! Recommend all pasta and pizza here actually you really can’t go wrong. Pretty good mocktails too if you don’t drink alcohol!

Pretty funny that this place is listed as "Italian". Food is mediocre, fairly tasteless. Service was awful, they forgot one of our drink orders and as usual with Dutch service it was incredibly slow. 8 Euros for a tiny basket with 4 pieces of bread and some olives lol. The fried seafood entree looks like cereal it's broken into 10,000 little fried pieces and is nasty to eat. They've created a nice ambiance for social media but would be great if they just created nice FOOD.

What a nice atmosphere in this restaurant. We received delicious food and we enjoyed the singing along and the fireworks.....VOLARE!!!!!!HOOOHO!!!!

Loved butter garlick pasta and pizza dough was really high-level! But pistachio tiramisu just blown my mind! Recommend!

Such a noisy place and the food was very salty. No good relation beetween price and quality. Wouln’t recommend it

Delicious food, pasta, pizza both great. The teramisu is also highly recommended!

We had a nice table on the terrace. We ordered a couple of starters and they were ok, but I was expecting a bit more. Service was fast and the atmosphere outside is nice.

Super fast and friendly service. The food was also very tasty.

Our experience at Volare was marred by slow service and tasteless food. It took over 40 minutes to revive three pastas. Dishes arrived cold and lacked flavor, which was a major letdown. When we brought up our dissatisfaction, the manager’s solution was to offer us free drinks instead of addressing the issues directly. This attempt to smooth things over felt inappropriate and unprofessional. I regret to say that I cannot recommend Volare given the poor service and dining experience we had.

The drinks, service and atmosphere is very nice however the food really lets it down. We ordered the burrata for a starter, and the burrata was very dry it seemed as though it was pre-prepared and sat waiting for orders to come through. We both had a pizza for the main, the dough was very nice but the tomato base was not very flavourful, the toppings were ok but overall dissapointing. I would return again only for drinks, but I do not recommend the food.

Worst pizza ever eaten in Amsterdam...

Het groepsmenu bij Volare is geen aanrader. Voor 32,50 pp krijg je 2 stukjes pizza en wat pasta. Beide zeer basic, de pasta maken we thuis echt beter...Voorgerecht was ook basic maat okee. Al met al is dit menu echt veel te duur voor wat je krijgt, ik kan er helaas niets positievers over zeggen...

Great place!! The food is really great and the service is very friendly and fast. Highly recommended 🫶🏻

Nice vibe and aesthetics! Definitely not bad food either!

We had a delicious meal with a group of 9 people. We communicated our wishes regarding the menu in advance and various wishes were carefully taken into account (including vegetarian options). The service was very helpful and enthusiastic and the atmosphere in the restaurant was good. We had a nice evening!

This was one of our favourite restaurants we visited during our trip. The staff were incredibly helpful and fast. The cocktails were delicious as was the food, there was a great atmosphere in the restaurant, and it was excellent value for money!

Good food, but just a little too expensive for the food.

A very delicious meal in this attractive restaurant. Enjoyed the pizza and the delicious wine! The bread basket was a bit on the boring side, I missed a nice dip. Other than that we enjoyed it!

I came here regularly because there is a pleasant atmosphere in the restaurant, but the last few times the food here has been seriously substandard. This is how I ate the pasta with truffle here last time. Don't order this. Don't hesitate!! This was also the last time for me.

Vibe and service is great with super friendly staff. Food overall was okay until I ordered the recommended Lamb Ragu. It didn't taste right and I didn't finish it as I felt like it wouldn't sit well, and I was unfortunately right a couple of hours later...Overall it's a good place and maybe I just had a bad batch but still a little disappointing :/

Atmosphere is good, but upon arrival we were immediately reminded that we had to leave in two hours. When we left, half the restaurant was still empty. Cocktails were watery, but the wine was good. The food was disappointing, one of the pizzas was still soggy. They offered to put it in the oven for a while, but that was ultimately not possible because they were afraid it would burn. In the end it wasn't bad, but it wasn't good either.

Wonderful fireworks show! Greetings Siem

Cozy tent! Haven't eaten yet but kitchen and meals looked good. Hip intention... we mainly drank delicious Scroppinos there!

Great pizza and really nice vibe

20 minutes after arriving, (it was about 9) the music volume was really loud (out of nowhere). It was so loud that, for my table and the other table close to us, people complain about having the ears hurting. Despite not being late at night, the waiters appeared with crackling. We thought the thing was just for a moment, to celebrate someone's birthday, maybe. But no. What came next was loud music after the other, making it impossible to enjoy the intimate vibe of the restaurant, (or even talk to the person in front of you). We asked them to please put the volume a little bit down, and we could see that the table close to us was doing the same. They ignored completely. We left after 20 minutes, with headache and a bad experience.

Nice and relaxed atmosphere, great service and nice chef, it's a lot of fun to eat there :)

Good italian food. I choosed baccalà mantecato wih potatoes and olives, pappardelle with deer ragù and porcini mushrooms, tiramisù. Everything was excellent. Attentive and kind service, time perhaps a little slow. Prices ok.

We received a great welcome even though we had not made a reservation. Great service. We came in to have a drink on a deceased grandpa, but left with a smile after a very enjoyable evening. Thank you to the team who made this possible.

Fraudulent restaurant with a wait of more than an hour for two dishes, one of which they made a mistake even though it was far from full

Genoten van de gerechten, hier is met liefde aan gewerkt! Bediening is lekker vlot me name een meid die alles goed volgt en de nodige aandacht gaf !! Super

Goeie service en lekker eten! Zeker een aanrader

Great food, amazing cocktails and just the perfect environment. Have been to Volare in both small and bigger groups and never left disappointed. Really recommend :)

Super leuke tent! Lekker eten, goede sfeer en leuk personeel. Een favorietje in Amsterdam voor diner en borrel. Ook heel leuk en gezellig in de avond. Cocktail tip: Sapore d’amore!!!

Amazing Place !! My absolute favorite restaurant in Amsterdam, if you’re looking for the best italian in town you’ll find it there. The waiters are so so nice, the food is very good and tasty and the ambiance is amazing ! Don’t hesitate !

Excellent service at the Bomboloni’s bar with a great variety of beers. A must do on your weekends. Thanks Joël for the friendly service!

The service was a bit slow but still quite nice and friendly, it was quite busy, especially for a weekday so I can imagine. The one thing that quite amazed me was that my husband ordered a primi and a secondi, and these came together which is something you would not expect from an italian restaurant of all the places. They took the secondi back and brought it out later and it tasted nice as well, but this definitely changed our experience. The food was a tad too salty.

The food was unique and delicious. The service was swift and the atmosphere was very nice. The grilled octopus and the burrata starter is super delicious. The price was very much reasonable for 3 people. I had a great time

Heerlijk gegeten en gedronken, goede wijnen en lekkere cocktails in de cocktailbar, die apart is van het restaurant, ook het service en keuken team is top en zeer vriendelijk

Cibo delizioso e prezzi onesti!!

Delicious food in a cosy and romantic setting, let down by the service but I think we were just unlucky. The restaurant was candlelit and creatively decorated and we enjoyed authentic Italian food - I can recommend the burrata! Unfortunately despite it not being very busy, we weren’t given menus until 20 minutes after being seated, didn’t have our drinks order taken til we’d been there for around 30 mins, and struggled to get service throughout the night. When we were interacted with, it was polite and helpful, just not very attentive.

Lea, britt & allesia thank you so much for your great service! We had an amazing evening! Definitely coming back! ❤️❤️

Knus restaurant. Mooie sfeer! Alleen weinig keuze voor een italiaan helaas. Menu kan uitgebreid worden!

Eten niet mijn ding, vond het te klein in verhouding met de prijs. Sfeer was gezellig en personeel was aardig

I celebrated my birthday there with a big group. Great service and great food. Can really recommend!

Mortadella stuffed Gnocchi? Sign me up. This place is good, nice staff, tasty food. But it takes foreeeeever for the food to arrive. Did we order more drinks in the meantime? Yes. Is that the point? Maybe. We had a good time, but we were also hungry. We sat at 8pm and didn't eat until well after 9.

Enjoyed a lovely dinner with freinds at this chic Italian, I would highlight and recommend the swordfish pasta. The service was quick but not invasive from all the team, see ya soon!

Super! Great food, romantic and interesting. Original place that will exceed your expectations. Now we have came here several times and we will be coming back again.

We went here with a group for a shared dinner. It was good but nothing of the food was particularly outstanding I think. The appetizers were better than the main dishes which were quite bland I think. The tiramisu was really liquid and a bit overpriced. The atmosphere was good though and the service friendly and fast especially with a packed restaurant full of large tables.

We waren te laat en kregen alsnog een tafel, ookal zat het erg vol. We hadden perfect zicht op de keuken, where the magic happend! Zalig eten, vernieuwende gerechten & heel leuk keukenpersoneel, als we nog eens in Amsterdam zijn komen we zeker terug. Een vriendin was jarig en dit werd ook heel lief gevierd! Goede prijs voor heel lekker eten, zowel voor/hoofd & na gerecht waren 1000000/10, LOVED IT

Dit weekend hebben wij met vrienden bij Volare gegeten. We zijn al vaker bij Volare geweest en komen terug vanwege de vriendelijke bediening en het eten. Dit keer waren we helaas niet enthousiast. De bediening was weliswaar vriendelijk maar we moesten steeds erg lang wachten. Ook hebben 3 van de 4 personen niet erg lekker gegeten. De pasta was te al dente, de hertenstoof was veel te taai en de vulling in de vegetarische ravioli was ook niet heel smaakvol. Hopelijk volgende keer weer de kwaliteit die we gewend zijn.

Das Lokal erstreckt sich mit Terrasse, Bar, Restaurant und Räumen für private Feiern über das gesamte Erdgeschoß des Eckhauses, und den Keller. Die Einrichtung ist stilvoll und modern, am späten Nachmittag ist es noch ruhig. Das Soundsystem spielt Funk der 80er. Ich entscheide mich für die Pizza Diavola, und frage eher intuitiv, ob sie mit Knoblauch serviert wird. "In Italien essen wir längst nicht jede Pizza mit Knoblauch" klärt mich die sympathische Kellnerin auf. Ich bekomme eine köstliche neapolitanische Pizza, natürlich mit Knoblauch.

Restaurant dans le centre d’Amesterdam très sympa. Super accueil et cuisine excellente.

Great food! Nice staff! Cozy atmosphere! Overall a good experience!

Leuke Italiaanse keuken met vriendelijke bediening. Lekker kunnen eten met m’n gezelschap in het restaurant en daarna naar de voorkant kunnen verhuizen waar er plaats was voor een na borrel! Zou er zo naar terug gaan

🍽️✨ An Italian Gem in the Heart of Amsterdam! ✨🍝 Restaurant Volare is a delightful Italian culinary haven that captured both my taste buds and my heart. From the moment I stepped through the door, I was transported to a charming Italian trattoria, right in the heart of this vibrant Dutch city. The ambiance at Volare is nothing short of enchanting. The cozy, candlelit interior exudes warmth and sophistication, making it an ideal spot for a romantic dinner or an intimate gathering with friends. The attentive and friendly staff adds to the inviting atmosphere, ensuring a memorable dining experience. I started with the Caprese salad, and the combination of perfectly ripe tomatoes, creamy mozzarella, and fresh basil drizzled with olive oil was an absolute delight. For the main course, I opted for the homemade pasta with truffle sauce, and it was a revelation. The flavors were rich and decadent, and the portion size was just right. Buon appetito! 🍷🍴🇮🇹 #RestaurantVolareAmsterdam #ItalianCuisine #AmsterdamEats

Awesome, great focaccia, taste was good, it was also really big, so definitely enough for a person with large appetite. Loved the plants in the window, kind of feels like home and nice to be able to look outside and watch people for a bit haha.
