Positano has consistently been my favorite restaurant for over 15 years until they discontinued making the creamy lemon drops. Unfortunately, because of this, I will most likely stop coming. Those lemon drops were the reason for my visits be a brunch happy hour or a dinner party. I guess I will not be celebrating my birthday in 2025 at Positano’s.

Lovely space, nicely decorated. Early, we waited at the bar for our reservation and the vibe was great - a little noisy, but in a good way. The drinks were good and the service friendly. We were seated timely, but our waiter was somewhat overbearing. The squid ink ravioli was tasty but not as sauced as would have benefited the less tender pasta. The chicken parm was generous but unremarkable and the accompanying linguini was overcooked and the marinara too sweet. We were disappointed but will return to the bar - I am sure it is even more gorgeous in the spring.

Great customer service, food came out in the exact timing we'd hopes for. Food was good, a bit too much sauce on our branzino but really a great experience overall.

Our server, Gregoria, was outstanding. She did not rush us, was patient, informative on the menu, and extremely pleasant. Pace of the meal was perfect. We like a slow, unhurried dinner, and Gregoria provided us plenty of time. The food was outstanding...recommend the calamari appetizer!
