Il Peperoncino DELFT

Italian restaurant with wood-fired pizza & homemade pasta

VIEW our menu

Fresh ingredients and
authentic Italian dishes

Along the water in the heart of Delft, you’ll find our first Il Peperoncino. This is where our dream began: a place where we can cook the way we learned back home in Calabria with love, attention, and pure, fresh ingredients.

Whether you join us for our wood-fired pizzas, a plate of homemade pasta, or simply an evening of good food and warm hospitality, you’re welcomed at our table just like family.

We also have a location in The Hague >

Dining just like in Italy

With us, everything revolves around good food and a relaxed atmosphere. Inside, it’s warm and cosy; outside, you look out over the water. That little touch of holiday feeling, but just around the corner.

Our photos show exactly who we are:
a warm place where we cook the way we learned in Calabria, right here in the heart of Delft.
You’ll see our family, our ingredients, and the dishes we’re proud of.

Absolutely delicious. The salmon with pistachio turned out to be a fantastic combination. The homemade tiramisu is also a must-try. I’ll definitely be coming back.

They apologized at least ten times for our little “issue,” so they clearly understood it wasn’t ideal — and that made it no problem for us anymore. We had a wonderful meal, great wine, and even a complimentary limoncello while we waited 😀 We’ll definitely be back!!!

Our favourite place to start the weekend (on a Thursday). Delicious pizzas and pastas. The wines pair beautifully with the menu. The dishes outside the regular menu are always fresh and tasty as well.

The food was very tasty and ready quickly. Good portions too. Truly an authentic Italian atmosphere.
