We came a little early and was greeted by the friendly staff with wine while they set up our table. We did the 6 course tasting and it was perfect. Adaquate noise level to discuss business and great staff. Overall, wonderful restaurant.

Nice restaurant and good food. A bit posh maybe, but my husband and I liked the fact that we got our privacy. We chose the six course meal with a winepackage. Loved all the wine, but thoght some of the food where a bit ordinary.

We were really looking forward to dinner here - a place we'd been meaning to try for months. The ambience was nice and the restaurant is quite spacious by Amsterdam standards. The food is Italian, but not classic Italian. It could be described as creative, but I found it very fussy - lots of foam and weird combinations of flavors.... More

I read about this place on a magazine a few months ago. This is definitely a place to eat some different and delicious Italian food. I wish I had gone back for a second night and try other things in the menu. The food is really creative and they do not offer a menu with 50 selections or something like... More

We wanted a special night out in Amsterdam whilst here on holiday, so we picked this restaurant based on previous reviews. We were not disappointed! Service was excellent, and so was the food and wine list. We chose the 4 course meal, matched with wines. Highly recommended! Not a cheap night out, so don't go here if you're expecting this....

Kind of hidden, this was a true gem. Thanks Trip Advisor. The food was amazing. It was very quality with unique items like pickle ice cream and various other "foams". Similar to what you might find at high-end places in Los Angeles, but unique in its own way. If you are looking for an amazing place for dinner while in... More

Our dinner at Bussia was a celebration...of our daughter's engagement. It was a special night for the four of us. Things could not have been better...from the food to the wine to the service. The restaurant itself was exactly right...it felt like a local spot, intimate, casual in a chic way, etc. It was very busy, but it was easy... More

We enjoyed a delicious, gorgeous meal here. They offer prix fixe menus. Two of us got 5 courses and one got 4 courses. We all loved everything. The service was professional without being stuffy. This is not traditional Italian--it is upscale, modern Italian cooking. The portions are not huge (which we like) but they are rich and flavorful. It is... More
