    Food was very good and delicious but portions were a bit small given the price for each food item.

    Pasta not good. Overpriced.

    We are very sorry if your experience did not meet your expectations and that you did not enjoy our pasta, was anything in particular wrong with it? About the prices instead, we believe that ours a pretty in line with Amsterdam offer 😊

    Again a great and tasty experience! The staff suggested for the daily special board an Orecchiette with cod fish, olives and tomato sauce, simply Devine! See you soon guys!

    Taste is not so good. I dont recommend Pizza Proffesore(with mushroom). Also, there were flies in the restaurant in a winter time. We were a bit busy to get rid off the flies.

    Osteria Bella CiaoOwner

    Hallo, We are very sorry to read about your experience. About the flys, it’s actually our very first time we hear a complaint about it but it will be of course our priority to look into it. Hoping to seeing you again, I wish you a great day. BR, Raffa

    Food quality is good but the sizes are too small. We had the set menu and it was great but there could have been a fourth course as part of the set menu. Prices are fine and the staff is doing their best. All in all we had a great night out with good food.

    Food was very disappointing a prawn risotto servers on a flat plate with one whole prawn on top and supposedly pieces of prawn in the rice minute bits and very few no pistachio crumbles as on menu, very very poor Last time we went there in May the food was good Recommended it to friends, embarrassing never again!

    WOW! Second time at Osteria Bella Ciao and I can definitely confirm that it is one of my favorite restaurants in Amsterdam! We had a three course menu where the chefs surprised us with a variety of “special” dishes served along some tasty cocktails and elegant Italian wines. Thank your ragazzi and see you soon!

    Thank you Jhon! 🙏

    Ordinary food, sloppy risotto. Quite a cheery place but the food is dull

    Osteria Bella CiaoOwner

    Hallo David. Thank you for taking time to review our restaurant. Our team takes seriously each feedback and try to improve everyday our menu and service so we to much appreciated your feedback. Our Risotto ai Gamberi is meant to be more “runny” and creamy but we do understand that maybe we did not meet your expectations. We wish anyway to see you again so that we can have a second chance and hopefully deliver a better experience. Best Regards, Raffaele

    One of the best places for Italian food in Amsterdam. We were 5 people, including 2 kids, and all the food was delicious. The service is amazing, definitely we will come back.

    Bad service. The waiter was facetiming for the whole time we were at the restaurant!! (Which, of course, made the service very slow). Small portion of food. The place was freezing.

    Osteria Bella CiaoOwner

    Ciao Juliana , grazie per la tua recensione , ci dispiace sentire che la tua esperienza non è stata del tutto positiva , lei è arrivata alle.ore 13 il ristorante era aperto da qualche minuto ed il sistema di riscaldamento non era ancora al suo massimo regime e purtroppo con queste temperature [ sotto lo zero gradi] ci impiega un po' di più del normale per arrivare ad una temperatura gradevole ,e dispiace anche molto sapere che la qualità del nostro servizio non ha soddisfatto le aspettative [il cameriere aveva avuto un problema familiare ] , riguardo invece le porzioni le nostre sono più che giuste ! Grazie ed arrivederci alla prossima volta .

    I keep coming back to Osteria Bella Ciao ???? the service is great every time and the food as well. This time, I chose the chef's menu with fish and it was perfect! Fresh ingredients and the perfect main dish to have on a rainy autumn evening ????????

    Very nice surprise. The food is delicious and the pasta recipes have a little twist. Loved the black ink pasta, my husband had the beed which was delicious too. Will definitely be back to also try the pizza.

    When we visit our family members living in Amsterdam, one of our favorite places to have a lunch or dinner together is the Osteria Bella Ciao restaurant. We will return on our next trip to Amsterdam :)

    What a great little find so close to the Olympic Stadium - perfectly placed for my daughter to re-fuel after running in the Amsterdam Marathon on Sunday. Delicious food, very friendly and helpful staff. Will recommend to any friends who are likely to be in Amsterdam in the future.
