I had a wonderful time. The best ravioli I ever ate! Beautiful decor. I highly recommend!
The bread was delicious,the eggplant parmesian was awful. Parts of the eggplant were hard and it was very salty.
While we were the only two people in the restaurant on a recent Thursday night (everyone seemed to be eating at the other Italian restaurant in the area), we found the food to be excellent and will definitely go back.
Incredible experience with great food and great drinks! Service was also phenomenal
Wow. We are serious foodies and we will be back! The bread is delicious and baked on premises. We sampled 5 appetizer. Don’t miss the asparagus, the meatballs or the calamari! The sauces were so amazing. And the profiteroles and tiramisu?. Our server was really lovely and wonderful and made recommendations that were helpful. We had a really special night out.We were a party of 4 including 2 teens for a 15th birthday. We’ll be back for my husbands birthday next month for sure :).
Went here for Valentine’s Day and it was a phenomenal, yet interesting experience. I wasn’t aware that their menu was limited for the holiday, as there were only 5 entree options, 2 starters, and 1 dessert. I got the tortellini and ravioli with cream sauce and bolognese. The plating was amazing, with the ravioli outside being pink, with pink sauce on one side of the plate and red sauce on the other side with the tortellini. I enjoyed my meal, even though the portion was small they gave us 2 rounds of bread which was nice! I would love to try out more from the menu on a day where it’s not limited to give a more insightful opinion. The atmosphere was very quiet, dark, and the waiters/waitresses were very attentive but soft spoken. It was almost hard to understand what they were asking as it was like they were trying to whisper…little silly but I can get by it! Overall, if you’re not one for big pasta portions but some amazing food then come here☺️🌟
I love Positan Coast in Philly so wanted to try it's sister restraunt in Ardmore.
Charming! Bolognese appetizer first was just as wonderful as the downtown restaurant but that was the only enjoyable part of dinner.
The waitress who took our order didn't seem to know how the specials were prepared and we had to ask the price. She didn't write anything down and then didn't remember who ordered what as she went to each table. And there were only 3 tables to serve.
I ordered Veal Picata. It came with a mix of properly al dante veggies but the veal tasted funny, like 3 day old chicken...weird. I sent it back and asked for another order of Bolognese and some veggies to go.
My partner ordered Pollo Santa Lucia and asked that there be no onions or basil. There was no basil but the sauce was chock full of onions. I did not like the taste when I tried it but my partner ate 1/2 & took home the rest.
The desserts were so uninspiring that we went across the street for brownies & ice cream.
Nothing was comped for the veal.
Not going back.

Had a large group, that we called ahead and verified they could handle and then asked if the large group being together wasn’t possible could we be put at tables close by. We arrived to the restaurant and they had a table for us all to sit together.-A server spilled oil and vinegars in a girls lap, NEVER apologized.-The salmon was wrong TWICE. We asked for salmon with no vegetables, no sauce, no capers and they said we didn’t specify we wanted it “plain” and that we didn’t read the menu and that it specified there was different vegetables that we didn’t specifically say we didn’t want on the salmon.-A girl ordered her penne without prusciotto (sp?) and the server thought she said “without peas” and had to redo that-Three people ordered to go meals WHEN we ordered our food and we did not get them.-Our drinks were not refilled a single time-A member of the party who ordered eggplant because it was a GF option, NEVER received her food and the server told us that it was because they couldn’t make it without gluten but did NOT communicate that our party member should reorder and couldn’t be accommodated.-We were then told that the kitchen was closed and none of our to go meals or redone meals could be given to us. This was after the server slapped his book down and rudely told us that he had been yelled at by the kitchen and that we weren’t doing a good job ordering and that was the problem.-Tried to charge us for more wine and sodas than we actually ordered. When we disputed this, we had to literally show the amount of soda and wine glasses at the table to prove we weren’t lying to them…We then asked to speak to a a manager who told us they could accommodate everything but the salmon and never apologized for the oil or any of the rudeness.On top of ALL of this tomfoolery, the food was mid at best, not worth any of the rudeness and poor communication. One meal was sent back due to the fact that the noodles were hard and undercooked.Save yourself the headache, frustration and go somewhere else.
My experience was excellent and the food was the best I must. Say in a very long time the staff and service was excellent I would recommend Positano restaurant to anyone looking for excellent Italian food and service it’s the best Italian food on the mainline.

Had dinner here and food was great! I had the tortellini with spinach and cheese and the squid and calamari appetizers. Lots of parking was available at the back.
