The Best Restaurant in Jordaan, Amsterdam

Background Illustration for Restaurants

The narrow streets of the Jordaan have many dining destinations. Most of the restaurants in this tourist-friendly area are on the small side, so it's best to make reservations or avoid weekends.

La Perla

$ | Jordaan Fodor's Choice

The folks at this restaurant, tucked away on a side street, have perfected the art of wood-fired pizza. Made from fresh ingredients imported from Italy, their thin-crust Neapolitan-style pies draw lively crowds of locals and tourists who don't complain about standing in line for the classic Margherita, quattro formaggi (four cheeses), or spicy puttanesca. Note that there are no slices, just whole pies. A roomier La Perla outpost is just across the street at No. 53, where the menu also includes sandwiches, pasta, and salads.
