I have been coming here for well over 20 years, be it for sit down dinners with family and friends or to grab some take out, this restaurant never disappoints. Carlo, the new owner has truly brought new life into a wonderful restaurant. The food is consistently delicious, the recent renovations are great and you can tell that they truly work hard to provide a great experience to all their patrons. Will gladly be coming back

Delicious New Year’s Eve dinner. It was very busy but the service was attentive. Portion of fried calamari was amazing and yummy. Definitely worth another visit. We love their pizza to go as well

​For 30 years, I’ve been coming to Positano’s, and the reason is simple: their linguine pescatore. It’s an incredible dish that has never once disappointed. The consistency, freshness, and flavor are what keep me coming back. It’s the best around.

Positano Ristorante & Pizzeria tucked away in Williston Park has been there since 1996. What a gem. Upon entrance you think you are walking into your neighborhood pizzeria. Then you look straight back and you are transformed into Positano Italy. Upon being seated you are offered a beverage and  a basket full of homemade focaccia and rolls. The menu is extensive with so many choices of fresh Italian dishes. The appetizers are amazing. they are all cooked fresh to order. I ordered and had a fruity cosmopolitan made special for me. It was just delicious and refreshing.The calamari came out fresh hot and tender. Served with a spicy marinara sauce, this hands down was the finest calamari I have had. in a very long time. It was so tender that you knew it was freshly made. The mozzarella sticks had such a cheese pull that we laughed at how long it was. The potato croquettes were pillowy light and fluffy. The rice balls were tender and flavorful.The tricolor salad was a showstopper with arugula, tomato, red onion, cucumber, orange segments and mozzarella balls, tossed in a fantastic balsamic dressing was amazing. The choices of pasta dishes were many. I had the Fettuccine Carbonara in a creme sauce, loaded with onion bacon. It was luscious. the Farfalle Boscaiolla with chicken, peas, mushrooms and onions in a creamy pink sauce was just divine. The Chicken Sorrentino was layered with eggplant, prosciutto and mozzarella in a light wine sauce was fabulous. The Chicken Verde was stuffed with fresh broccoli, prosciutto and cheese was glorious. The showstopper of the meal was the dessert platter. Tire Mi Su, Cannoli, American and Italian Cheesecake was over the top. Flavorful, rich and luxurious, I could go back just for the desserts.

Positano Ristorante & Pizzeria is in a shopping center in Williston Park, NY. When you enter, you are introduced to the pizzeria. Then as you look up and see the restaurant, it is just lovely. With beautiful warm tones of brown and beiges, it is charming. You feel as if you were sitting in a villa in Italy. The lighting is is lovely and the music is easy listening. The service was outstanding. Every staff member was friendly and many have been there from opening day.  We were fortunate to meet the owners. They are the loveliest of people. The pride they have in the food that they offer is very apparent. I must say they are so accommodating and accomplished in this industry.  I had the opportunity to learn the background of some of their special dishes.

Positano Ristorante & Pizzeria is a fabulous Italian restaurant. The food is fresh and made to order. I always rate an Italian restaurant by its sauce. Their sauce  was definitely delicious.  There is  a full service bar and many different varieties of wine and beer. The pizzeria is fantastic with many different  of toppings. This restaurant is a gem that you must try. You definitely will be so happy that you did.

Decent neighborhood pizzeria restaurant. Good sauce to cheese ratio on their Sicilian with bite on the crust. I work in the area and from time to time will grab a slice or two.

This review solely based on takeout pizza however I’m sure their dine in and menu is deserving of more stars based on many other reviews on google.

Walking into Positano is like walking into Nonna’s home. It’s not just a pizza place, but something very special…..you are in Nonna’s kitchen.

There is a very comfortable feeling when you sit down that you are about to embark on a very special culinary journey!

Our hosts Jorge and Nancy couldn’t have been nicer! Plus our waiter Carlo was fantastic! He was the perfect personality for our table. He understood exactly what we were looking for and delivered a delicious culinary journey.

I don’t even know where to begin.

The salad was not your typical salad. Plus the addition of Orange brought it to a whole new level.

The Squinguili, Calamari,Shrimp, Baked Clams were off the charts!

The Veal Parmasean was excellent! As was the pasta with Chicken and Mushrooms!

The Baccarat was sweet and balanced. The desserts were absolutely perfect!

This will be my go to place for Italian food going forward. I can’t wait to go back.

UPDATE
We have been coming back again over and over since our first experience at this outstanding dining experience.

I love The Parkside…however Positano can definitely go punch for punch with that restaurant. We love both and will continue to enjoy both! ❤️

In any event the food tonight was exceptional. The appetizers consisting of baked clams, stuffed mushrooms, stuffed shrimp, stuffed artichokes and eggplant rollintini were very good. The bread basket is tasty as well. Once again the Veal Parmasean dinner was excellent.

If you enjoy desserts, ours were off the charts delicious. I have to say that the Canolli and Tiramisu were the best that I ever tasted. They are made on the premises. Both were creamy, well balanced, full of great flavors and came with a wonderful homemade cream. Truly heaven on a plate. The presentation was also terrific!

This is a very special place. Once again, the staff was great. Our server Jeanine was wonderful and Carlo was just fantastic as he has been every time we visit!

The owner Jorge made his rounds with a continuous smile. He came over to our table several times to ensure that we were satisfied. You can tell the pride and love he has for his restaurant. It is definitely felt by his customers and there was a full house tonight.

We left happy and tremendously satisfied. We will be back again sooner than later!

I ordered a pasta and fried calamari for lunch. Since I placed the order at 1:30 pm, I reasonably assumed it would be charged at the lunch price. However, they charged me the regular price, so I filed a complaint. They explained that for lunch orders, I have to specifically say it’s for lunch when placing the order. Does it make sense? Is there anyone agree with it?

What upset me even more was what happened next. I said, “This is my first time ordering from this place, but after this kind of response, I don’t feel like coming back.” And their reply was really really unbelievable — they said, “Then don’t come back.”

Fantastic restaurant! We had a group luncheon today and the food was delicious, plentiful, and the service was great! The manager threw in a couple of extras, which was greatly appreciated by all. I highly recommend this restaurant. Eileen Watts
