Our Story
In the heart of Amsterdam, where the canals meet cobblestone streets, a piece of Italy has been thriving since 1999 on the Dam square.
What began as a family dream has blossomed into a beloved Amsterdam tradition. For over 25 years, we've welcomed guests through our doors with the same warmth and passion our founder, Mrs Calata, brought from Northern Italy.
Here at Calata, we believe in simplicity done right. No shortcuts, no compromises. Just honest Italian cooking that lets quality speak for itself. Whether you're savoring our freshly made pizza, fresh pasta on your fork, or raising a glass of carefully selected wine, you're experiencing the same authenticity that has made us a home away from home for locals and travelers alike.
This is more than a restaurant. It's where friendships are forged and where celebrations come alive. Stop by at our location on the Dam square or make a reservation through the form below, we can not wait to serve you!
