Welcome to Il Peperoncino!
In the heart of the Statenkwartier, we bring the flavours, aromas and hospitality of Calabria to life. Here, we cook the way we learned at home: with love, care and pure, fresh ingredients. Our chefs combine traditional recipes with a modern touch, giving every pinsa, pasta or antipasto an honest, recognisable flavour.
Whether you want to enjoy a good meal after work, dine extensively during the weekend, or celebrate a special evening with friends, family or colleagues with us, everyone feels at home.
Dining just like in Italy
With us, everything revolves around good food, pure flavours and a relaxed setting.
Inside, it’s warm and stylish, with family photos on the walls that reflect our Calabrian roots.
Outside, you feel the liveliness of the Frederik Hendriklaan. A touch of Southern Italy right in the heart of The Hague.
Our photos tell our story:
from our family in Calabria, surrounded by olive trees and the land where our roots lie, to the ingredients and dishes we prepare here with that same love. That’s why, with every bite, you taste a little piece of home.
