We visited The Bulldog Palace during our weekend in Amsterdam and enjoyed it so much that we came back twice — first for breakfast, and then again for lunch.
We were a group of 8 people, and the place turned out to be perfect for us: spacious, well-organized, and with a really pleasant atmosphere.
Good music, good food, and a relaxed vibe, ideal both for starting the day calmly and for stopping by for lunch.
A big plus goes to the staff, who were always friendly, helpful, and smiling — something that truly makes a difference, especially when you’re in a group.
Overall, it’s a place where you feel comfortable and welcome, and where you genuinely want to come back.
Very positive experience, definitely recommended
Probably the best Italian restaurant in Amsterdam! Located in an old canal house, they offer excellent Italian food, from pizzas to pastas, good wines and great staff. After so many years in Amsterdam, they haven't lost nor quality nor the Italian atmosphere.
John was very friendly and his service was great
The steak was very good and bigger than expected
The food came out very quickly
Would eat here again ❤️
It was closed, I don't think there was anything left in it, it looked levelless!
In addition, there is a McDonalds there that bought a cup of cappuccino #fancy coffee🤗
The burger meat was delicious, but the bun was terrible. It tasted like stale bread. They could improve that and earn 5 stars, since the place is beautiful and has a wider variety of food, not just burgers. The chocolate soufflé lacked chocolate or sugar flavor, but the ice cream was delicious.
Beautiful atmosphere, steeped in jazz history... the staff were friendly, smiling, and helpful. We tried the appetizer and main courses, and everything was delicious... a lovely little restaurant in Amsterdam.
The best Italian restaurant in town. Generous portions and delicious food. The quality of the ingredients is evident in every bite.
Very friendly, attentive, and welcoming staff.
👏 Bravo!
Antica Pizzeria Da Michele in Amsterdam is a true ambassador of authentic Neapolitan pizza. From the very first bite, you can taste the same flavors, aromas, and quality you would find in Naples itself: a light and perfectly leavened dough, soft and airy crust, and top-quality Italian ingredients. The pizza is outstanding and genuinely has nothing to envy to the best pizzerias in Naples.
The desserts are also excellent, well prepared and true to Italian tradition — a perfect way to end the meal.
The staff is friendly, professional, and attentive, always helpful and welcoming, which greatly enhances the overall experience. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, carefully curated yet relaxed, making it an ideal place for both casual dinners and special evenings.
Overall, a must-visit for anyone who loves real Neapolitan pizza and wants to experience an authentic taste of Italy in the heart of Amsterdam. Highly recommended.
As a Chef I would simply praise my colleague and I would be happy to come again. I certainly got a recommendation, from a professor at the university, not from a tourist, and I am very satisfied, as is my daughter. A little more amenities would be even nicer, but any recommendation.
Wow.. stunning place. Looked amazing on arrival. Staff super friendly and attentive. Now the food!! Where to start .. this place is not cheap, however the flavours and quality is unreal . We had the tuna, ribs which were a show stopper and mushrooms. All incredible. Looking around other meals looked as incredible. Would 100% and return. Thank you.
