nNea Pizza

Not really my thing I was excited to try this place after seeing it ranked in the world’s top 50 and booked a table two months in advance. Sadly, it didn’t live up to the hype for me. I went for the Super Marinara right, but after a couple bites, I was pretty disappointed. The crust was soft (I prefer something more crispy), and the pizza was super salty. There was a lot of tomato sauce, and it didn’t feel like it blended well with the base — more like it was added after baking. The other pizza we ordered wasn’t as salty, so it was a bit better. I also cut off the burnt edges and didn’t eat those. The starter was Ok. The 4.6 rating on Google shows a lot of people love this place, so maybe it’s just not my style of pizza. If there’s no long wait, it might still be worth a try, but I’d say don’t go in with super high expectations.

Award winning Pizzeria is one of the top 50 Pizza places in the world. No doubt it was a good experience and pizzas and the sides very delicious. The restaurant is booked 2/3 months in advance well is it worth the wait depends on the individual. Location well connect by tram. Strongly advise to make the book well in advance. The desert Tiramisu was excellent and definitely not heavy keep some place for it.

We tried two different pizzas, the other one was okay and the other one was really good. Tiramisu was also good. It was really difficult to get a reservation here, took me several months to get one and you still have to wait in a line to get it. I understand that it's because the place is so popular and has many awards, but for us it wasn't anything mind blowing to be honest. Good place and I don't really have anything to complain about, but perhaps not worth the hype.

Worlds best? I'll take it. Flavor was epic. But I'm not a critic. I just love pizza. Scissors to cut your own slices. Great service. Book a reservation for the sit down side or order at the counter to take away with very limited space for seating. First come first serve. Beautiful flavors. I cheated on all my diets for this and it was worth every penny. Gluten don't mess me up as bad as normally cause I'm sure their dough is made without adding toxic stuff. The dairy still got to me but it's my choice and risk to enjoy the serotonin boost it gave me. 10/10 would go again

Our kid was craving for pizza so we googled place for pizza in the city and it shows that this place has been one of the best in Europe for pizza so we decided to come here for dinner. I’ve tried to make a reservation through google but the availability was for after 9pm which it was so late for us so I asked a local friend to call the place directly and we got told that they keep 25% of table for walk in so we decided to go straight to the place and there was already a long line, once we got there the waiting time was about 45min So I highly recommend to make a reservation in advance. The place is quite cozy the personal was so nice. They are specialized on pizza so we ordered 3 different pizzas, octopus, the one that the personal recommended with yellow sauce and the pepperoni one which our kid loved a lot. Mine was the grilled octopus which I really liked it too the tomato sauce was so delicious and I like how the layer was so thin and to finish the course we had a tiramisu for dessert which it didn’t disappoint! The whole experience was so great! We enjoyed the dinner!!! I’d say it was one of the best dinner we had in the city during this visit

Best pizza you’ll find in Amsterdam, period. Possibly even in Europe (!). But what makes this place make me come back as a local - even though they are always packed - is the vibe, service and general feeling of the place. You can feel the passion and love they put in it, and in everything. 10/10 on every note. Yes please!

I visited this place a couple of years ago and absolutely loved it — but I didn’t expect to be lucky enough to get in again! And let me tell you — it was so worth it. We ordered three different pizzas, and each one was incredibly tasty, with that perfect crust and fresh, flavorful toppings. Totally lived up to the hype. We left full and happy. Will definitely be coming back (again)!

When we visited Amsterdam this place was on our list as high as the windmills and red light district. The restaurant is quite simple inside, the chairs are not the most comfortable ones, but since the service is quite responding and fast it wasn't a problem. The pizza is rather good, by I left with mixed feelings and why do I say it like that? Because the crust is quite awesome, margherita was also good, but I wasn't really blown away by the other one, which name I can't remember nor find currently on the menu. Overall I will put it on my list and gladly come back to check it again though for now it's not in my top ones when it comes to Neapolitan pizza.

Ranked #48 in the world's best 50 pizzas. I heard it's very difficult to get a reservation here so we walked in on Saturday at around 8pm. We had to wait an hour to get seated, so we went next door to chill and grab beers. We ordered the partenope and margherita pizzas and they were AMAZING. Definitely worth the hype and waiting in line for if you can't get reservations. The only downside is that their wine isn't the best and it took awhile for the pizzas to be ready. Recommend enjoying your pizza with a glass of refreshing beer! I'm definitely coming here again the next time we're back in Amsterdam!!

Walk, no RUN here! THIS WAS SO GOOD! A short walk from CityHub hostel, we put our name down for 2 people around 7PM and there was about a 30 minute wait. When I was researching places to eat in Amsterdam, this restaurant came up on several lists for some of the "best pizza in the world". - seriously, on its website it states "nNea has been awarded with 3 spicchi Gambero Rosso and named one of the top italian restaurants in the world. 50 Top Pizza, the guide to the best pizzerias in the world, has voted nNea no.1 in The Netherlands, no.9 in Europe and no.48 in the world." We got two pizzas - a classic margarita and another called Capefierr (Squeezed plum tomatoes, salsiccia a punta di coltello (made by us with local meat), fried padron peppers, mozzarella di bufala, parmigiano reggiano, basil). The ingredients were fresh and delicious (I'm Italian I know good mozzarella and sauce), only critique is the dough could've been cooked a bit longer. We ended up eating both pizzas!

Really good pizza and friendly staff. We went there on a hot night and they could do with a better air conditioning solution.

Read lots of good reviews about this place so had to go and check it out! Luckily we got in no reservation seated at the bar. Quick service overall, place gets packed at dinner time. We tried the salami pizza. Man it was so good. Nice crust and chewy dough. The salami was some spice to it that was tasty. Overall best pizza I had in the city would definitely come back again!

We walked in when they opened since we were unable to secure a reservation in advance. They were able to accommodate us for 1.5 hours which was the perfect amount of time for our dinner. The staff was nice and very knowledgeable in terms of helping us with the wine selection. We found the restaurant to be very very hot and we sat in the back by an open door. We started with the Frittatina di pasta which the staff highly recommended. I really enjoyed the crispy outer texture meshing with the cheesy pasta insides, but I did feel that it was a dressed up version of fried mac and cheese bites. Not that it was bad but in my opinion I would skip it if you've had something similar. 6.75/10 The fun part were all the pizza options. Really creative pies are being offered, unfortunately we were only able to eat two of them. We ordered the 'nduja Tonnata with a yellow sauce, mozzarella di bufala, onions, 'nduja and tuna (!!!) finished with oregano, paprika and lemon. This was a super interesting pie as I had never had both 'nduja and tuna on the same pie before. I did feel the 'nduja over powered the fish, but in a good way. Out of the very interesting/non traditional pies they had I would say this would be the one to order. 8.5/10 Of he second pie we ordered was the Partenope, which is the octopus and stracciatella pie. I love both of these things separately and it photographs well together, but I don't think they mesh as well as I hoped. The crust/dough they're using is excellent, but I would probably order a traditional pie instead just to see how to matches up to more familiar tastes. If this was my local pizza place I would order it again, but if you're traveling and if this is your only opportunity to eat here I would skip. 6.5/10 Overall I think with better ordering this would have received 5 stars (our fault not theirs for what we like to eat) from my experience I would rate this 3.75/5 stars.

a fantastic Neapolitan pizza. crust is phenomenal, soft and airy with minimal flop for a neapolitan. our favorite was the mushroom and margherita.

Simply remarkable, the pizza that ruins all other pizza. Get the oro di bufala and just enjoy. Remarkably fluffy crust dusted with cheese, a bright orange tomato sauce, a perfect balance of toppings, cutting each slice yourself just adds to the experience. Even the margherita pie was lovely, a more burnt crust, again bright colors, with a beautiful balance. Basically order everything and share, and you can't go wrong.

The best pizza I have ever had in my life. I hate to say that as it is already difficult to get in.

I was a bit hesitant to go the full 5-stars due to the length of time to get a reservation at a decent hour (one month), but with the pizza being excellent and the vibe & service very friendly, I went ahead with that rating. I've lived nearby for over 3 years and never have eaten here due to covid restrictions and the difficulty getting a table. A couple of negatives are they told us we have until 9:30 pm but at 8:55 pm were telling us they needed the table at 9 (we were finished eating and drinking though). It's super busy in there, my friend was feeling a bit tired from the lack of fresh air indoors. The pizza was delicious. I am not the best pizza expert, but the starter was delicious too. I think it was slightly better than a competing Napolean style pizza place not too far away, mainly the crust was crispier and warmer. The prices are reasonable as well. I'd like to try them again on a non-weekend night.

I was so excited to eat here. Couldn't get a reservation so stood in line around 5:20 before 5:30 opening. Got seated at the bar/counter right away. Oh my. The pizza was so so good. The dough. Oh my. We got the spicy margherita and one recommended by our server, the one with octopus and juice (wasn't so sure but it was tasty). So glad I got to eat here during my vacation in Amsterdam.

Best pizza I've ever had. Was on vacation with my wife from the states and this restaurant was recommended by a friend of a local. It is worth traveling to. I ordered the Nonno Vincenzo (Diavola). My wife ordered salsiccia e friarielli (broccoli rabe) Highly recommend the Nonno

My mother was in town visiting me, and I was showing her around my neighborhood, when this large sign with the words in English about "Warming up for an Opening" in the shopfront window caught my eye. There was an email address, and I'm always up for foodie adventures, and this place being local to me, I decided to check it out. We made a reservation for 6-8pm on a Sunday, and on the appointed hour, presented ourselves to our lovely and bubbly server. After hanging our coats, we were seated behind the bar-stools, which looked out into the open kitchen. There was a lovely, big round pizza- oven and 2 chefs, one of whom was freshly making the pizza bases, while another handled the oven. The server explained how it was a limited menu, with the chefs trailing a limited selection of only 4 menu items, and it might be that what we ate, wouldn't end up on the final menu. We were also offered a complimentary selection of drink, and decided to go with a non-alcoholic elder-flower concoction. With this drink, it wasn't mixed very well, because I didn't really taste anything at all till I was half-way done with my drink. Foodwise, we ordered the following items: 1) Water (large) €3.50 - the water is co-branded with a charity, so loved that aspect of ordering the bottle 2) Burrata starter (€6.50) - HOLY DELICIOUSNESS! Absolutely recommend getting this as the Burrata cheese was AMAZING. Blistered cherry tomatoes and a beautiful basil oil as well as crisp toast was the perfect accompaniment to the cheese. 3) Nonno Vincenzo pizza (€12) - The server mentioned that this pizza was in honour of the chef's grandfather, and I loved the spicy salami! I hope they will have a Charcuterie Plate, cause when I came back next time, I'm for sure getting it! That SALAMI WAS SO GOOD! 4) Mortazza pizza (€14) - we were intrigued by the mention of the pistachio in this pizza and when it came, it was a white sauce base, so made a good contrast to the Nonno Vincenzo pizza which had a tomato base. This pizza was also milder in flavor, compared to the taste overload from Nonno Vincenzo, however I liked the contrast. Our total bill was €36 for two people, which I thought was pretty good price per person for Amsterdam. One thing about the table we sat at, was this it was also behind the bar stools which was a bit of an issue, in that it was a very narrow passageway and so folks as well as the server kept bumping into the back of my chair. Overall however, am very glad this pizza joint has opened up in my neighborhood and am definitely coming back. Yelp 38/ 2019

Wow. Sooooo good. We sat at the bar and got to see the pizza being made. The only downside is so many looked delicious and we have to come back. There are a few starters that looked good. Nice wine list (the rose was good with the pizza and quite summery) by the glass and bottle. The pizza all have high quality ingredients and all look amazing. The crust has a perfect amount of char and chewiness. The toppings all worked together perfectly. We had the fried dough with ricotta for dessert. Also so good. The service was great. They explain any ingredients you might not know and everyone we talked to was so friendly and helpful. I can't wait to come back.

I moved to the Netherlands in early September and visited nNea today at the recommendation of a friend who said their frozen pizzas are amazing- and they are! I am really impressed. I got a margherita pizza. Chewy crust, delicious sauce and cheese, and they somehow managed to get basil to freeze nicely. I can't wait to return after this partial lockdown ends so I can try the rest of the menu.
