Had a wonderful time here. We had dinner here with old friends and the place is perfect for the gathering. Foods were high quality and delicious, and services were amazing. All foods that we ordered were great enough to make our time there happy.

We had our "night before" dinner for our son's wedding at Positano Coast. Start to finish, it was by far the easiest and most amazing event I have ever been involved with. Carolina was responsive and communicated everything easily. The staff was so friendly and accommodating that my guests were actually commenting on it. Last minute changes did not throw them off. And then there is the FOOD!!! OMG the food!! With all the ease of planning, I couldn't imagine that the food would be the star of the show. I watched each person pause and shut their eyes for a moment after tasting their first bites (me included)!! Everything from Positano Coast was absolute perfection!! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU!!

My friend and I came in the mid afternoon for bottomless mimosas and to split an appetizer. After we put the appetizer order in, our waitress returned stating that the manager demands we order more food since we chose the bottomless option. There was nothing on the menu stating that this was a policy, nor was this explained to us when we ordered the mimosas (and even when put the app order in). If this is indeed a policy, it needs to be noted on the menu. If the waitress forgot to explain this when placing the order and considering we already had the carafe on our table, it would have been polite to waive the policy for this instance and just state that next time to order one entree per person. However, we ended up in an awkward back and forth with the manager (who never came out to introduce him or herself) which ended up with us just sending the carafe back as we didn’t need additional food. This seemed very much like a money grab to me and the whole thing soured the experience- won’t be back.

All info, including their website said they were open for lunch at 11:30. I walked from Rittenhouse t o try it out. Doors were locked. Waited till 11:45. Doors were locked even though I could see employees inside and they could see me.

What a great place! The bar area is nice, but a little narrow for people to walk by. The bartender was friendly and attentive.We came for a party, and our server was excellent for such a large, somewhat loud party.The food was excellent and portioned perfectly. The mozzarella apps were very good. The crabcake was so good. I tasted some of the Branzino, and it was so buttery and tasty. Everyone else enjoyed their meals.We will definitely come back again.

This was our first visit to Positano Coast. We'll definitely be back. Our experience was first rate. The restaurant's décor is colorful, contemporary, and sleek. The seating is plush. The ambiance is very warm with Euro-jazz music playing in the background. Our server, Hymie, was wonderful. He was personable, knowledgeable, and he had a good sense of humor. We started with martinis with the best bleu cheese olives I've ever had (and I've had a lot of them). Generous pours. For an appetizer, we shared the grilled octopus with grilled artichokes. It was fantastic! For entrées, my wife had delicious, seared scallops, which rested on a bed of pea puree, along with pearl onions, peas, and pancetta. I had grigliata, a huge plate of grilled seafood (calamari, head-on shrimp, and scallops), with arugula and a rosemary pesto. This was awesome! The portion is large enough for two people to share. For dessert, my wife enjoyed the very dense, rich chocolate pyramid. Positano Coast is firing on all cylinders.
