The Best Pizza Near Bij Jef, by the Record

The large yellow-domed oven is visible from anywhere in the room, which is sort of the point. This Neapolitan pizza spot on a quiet Amsterdam street runs two addresses side by side, one for dine-in, one purely for takeout. The menu has nine pizzas and no filler; the dough is the whole argument, airy and light with a crust that actually melts. Ranked in the 50 Top Pizza Europe and World lists, and booking ahead is advised.

The oven greets you at the door, which tells you everything about priorities. This Amsterdam pizzeria runs on contemporary Neapolitan pies, with a dough the team has spent years quietly obsessing over. The menu pulls double duty: classic Campanian dishes like genovese and parmigiana appear as standalone plates and as pizza toppings. Simple, unfussy, and genuinely bilingual in its appeal to both Italian expats and everyone else on Amstelveenseweg.
