    Ordered the ‘Prime Rib Eye Steak’ which was an extra 25 dollars on top of their 100 per person Christmas menu. By far the worst steak I personally ever had. Save your money or simply go somewhere else. I won’t be returning here.

    We had a fantastic time here catching up with friends. You can never go wrong eating here. The food, drinks & service were great. Val always takes care of us & was able to move us quickly to a quieter spot versus the lively main dining room.

    Great services from the minute we entered. Our waiter was attentive. We ordered three entrees which we loved. Lovely decor for the holidays. Would come back.

    It took a little while to get seated even though we had a reservation for 8PM, a couple with a reservation for 8:15 was seated before us. The food was phenomenal, however.

    My family and I have been here numerous times and the food is always amazing. Filet mignon always good and the Chilean sea bass is the best!

    You sent me an email to make a review - do you want me to really leave an honest review? Have not been to Positano in a while and went w a friend who invited us w a gift card . The food portions were tiny but the prices were not . It was very pricey for 4 of us who hardly drank . The food got me and my GF sick . It was just not a good night and sorry for being honest but we will not be back . The place is beautiful and my only other item to share is there were " so many" people working and every 60-120 seconds they kept coming by to check our plates and drinks lke being babysat - its rude , Good luck Positano - not for us . Sorry
