On Amsterdam's lively Noordermarkt stands Domenica - a bistro where Italian traditions blend with the bustling urban flair of the Jordaan. Here, food becomes a sensory journey, a celebration of the pure and authentic.
The smell of freshly baked bread and the soft tones of Italian conversation fill the modern-style interior, where natural materials and warm colors combine to create an inviting ambiance. Light falls muted through the large windows, which overlook the busy square, balancing both tranquility and liveliness.
Domenica's cuisine shines with seasonal specialties. Think perfectly cooked octopus with crispy skin, combined with the smoky power of bell pepper and blanched broccoletti. Each dish tells the story of care, craftsmanship and pure flavors. Of course, you can choose from the chef's carefully curated 4- or 5-course menu, with each season serving as inspiration and local suppliers providing the best.
What makes Domenica unique is not only the gastronomic quality but also the social vibe. Dining at the bar invites conversation and meeting, while the terrace captures the liveliness of the Jordaan. Since January 2025, the wine cellar near the Noorderkerk has been a new gem - exclusive wine tastings take the experience to the next level and provide an intimate setting for foodies.
"Domenica exudes the Sunday feel that the name promises: relaxed, tasteful and always with a smile."
Whether you come for lunch, a sumptuous dinner or a voyage of discovery through Italian wine, Domenica combines classic and modern in a way that captures the soul of Amsterdam and Italy at the same time. A culinary oasis where time seems to stand still - at least, until the next course arrives.
