Positano

Delicious food and good service

Kid-friendliness: Respectful, kind and funny.

I’ve been here once before on a Sunday and neither loved nor hated my meal. Came back again for a date night, walked in at 8:30 on a Saturday with no reservation waited 2 hours to get seated but it was so worth it. The hostess was so friendly and professional, she kept checking in with us and apologized. They were running behind because earlier reservations stayed later than expected. I loved that they didn’t ask guests to leave like some places do which I find extremely annoying and usually avoid places with a time limit. We had drinks at the bar and oysters. I am very picky when it comes to oysters, these were mouth watering and very fresh! Once we got seated, I was afraid that the food wouldn’t be as good because they were incredibly busy and it was an hour before the kitchen closed. We ordered two specials, a shrimp scallop pasta dish & a gnocchi with chunks of filet mignon, burrata and shaved black truffle. Every single bite was to die for! Food was very fresh, pasta cooked al dente just like it should be. Drinks were wonderful as well, strong and well made. Staff was extremely attentive and brought me a new napkin maybe four times as they kept falling off of my lap. The French napoleon was the cherry on top, perfectly crisp, right amount of cream and fruit. I couldn’t breathe at this point but I ate every last bite! Definitely blows away other Italian restaurants in the area. Will be returning

I recently dined at Positano, and the experience exceeded my expectations. The food was exceptional, with each dish showcasing a perfect balance of flavors. The service was impeccable, with attentive staff ensuring a delightful dining experience. The ambiance added to the overall enjoyment, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. I highly recommend for anyone seeking a memorable culinary adventure.

Amazing food and service; Loved the whole experience and they truly topped it off with the Birthday dish for my mother.

As an avid foodie, There are 3 main points I seek in a dining experience. First Respect, 2nd, Food, 3rd Service. I had as reservation and expect my Ressie to be respected. The establishment was extremely busy, The music was over the top loud (more of a scene vs a dining experience. ) My initial seat selection, I wasn't fond over and asked for a second choice that I decided against. Literally within 2 minutes, The table was given away by the maitre-d. Completely unacceptable and disrespectful. We ended up waiting even with a reservation and finally took the next seat available next to the bar. Tuna app was delicious. My veal Chop, I'd pass. Waiter forgot to order our sides.... Not what I would expect from a fine dining experience. Brooklyn has many amazing Italian restaurants and for me, this didn't meet my expectations. .A person running the show (matre-d) should put customers first. He was very full of himself when the focus should be on the restaurant, service and overall the ones who make a restaurant other than the chefs/waiters.....THE CUSTOMERS.....

Food was good . Maitre d was disgusting arrogant !!! Gave my table away while checking out 2nd chioce !! So judgmental
