Posides

We had a few hours in Positano and were looking for a good spot for lunch. We tried to avoid the restaurants that were immediately accessible when dropped off at the dock. The google reviews and ratings were glowing for this place. And all of the photos of the food looked amazing. We didn’t realize there was a trek uphill to get there, but it was worth it! We only had to wait a few minutes for a the table to be cleared. It’s a small space, but super cozy, which allowed for impeccable service. And the view from the table outside is stunning. Besides the food being outstanding, no really it was the best meal we had in Italy hands down. I’m just upset it wasn’t closer to the area where we were staying because I would have eaten there everyday. The dishes were all fresh and the plates were beautifully presented. The biggest standout was interacting and observing the staff. It felt like being in a family kitchen and it made us feel at home. We shared conversation and laughs. It was a highlight of our trip and I would go back just to dine here again.

We stayed next door to this amazing breakfast and lunch spot. The table in the balcony was open and if there was any way for the food to have tasted better, it would have only because of the view from that table! The French toast and the avocado toast were the best we've ever had! Unbelievable flavors! If you are visiting you must try this spot!

Italian cuisine at its finest. Chef and Staff are amazing as they have created such an enticing culinary experience. Fantastic cuisine, friendly/ knowledgeable staff, amazing atmosphere as we shared great conversation with tables on either side of ours, and did I mention the ultra delicious dishes?! We will be back before heading back for sure. Total dining experience that makes your soul and stomach “Happy”

After a long walk from the Path of the Gods, visiting this restaurant was a delightful treat. The food was exceptional, and the warm hospitality created an inviting atmosphere that truly enhanced our experience. My only minor observation was regarding the serving sizes—they were a bit modest, though I understand this is typical in the Amalfi region. Overall, it was a wonderful meal and a memorable stop on our journey!

When I tell you this was the best caeser salad I’ve ever had, I’m not lying. It was so light. Homemade croutons but lemony with Balsamic and lots of crumbled parm. I wish o could eat this every day. The atmosphere is great but very tiny with only 6/7 tables. It’s worth the wait. The pasta was also very light. Service and Chef were amazing! I highly recommend. We actually met up with some friends in town (from the same city) at the exact same time.

My husband and I were lucky to find Posides on the only night of the week they open for dinner (Wednesday). We loved it so much we came back for breakfast. The food, atmosphere and staff are incredible, we had such a great time here. The space is cozy and welcoming, and really encourages connection both with the staff and other guests. Brigid had such great recommendations and we would have loved to do a wine tasting here! Thank you to everyone at Posides, we just left earlier today and keep raving about it to everyone :)

I ate here twice during my four days in Positano because it truly was some of the best food we had in Italy (not just Positano). If they have the fish soup on the day you are there, it is a MUST try dish. They don’t take reservations and only have a few tables in the restaurant, but it is worth the wait. The workers there are all so lovely and truly care about the food and atmosphere they present.

We visited on the same day as the person who left the 1-star review claiming they waited two hours and were kicked out. We actually arrived shortly before them, waited about an hour, and were seated without issue. Their group of six was harder to accommodate in such a very small, busy restaurant, which seats just over a dozen people total. While we waited in front the whole time, they left and only popped back in to check. If they didn't want to trust the staff, they should’ve stayed nearby like the rest of us. The staff were kind and apologetic, even though the wait was totally reasonable. As bystanders to the scene they caused—yelling at staff and other diners—we can confirm they were asked to leave only after disrupting everyone else. Honestly, we were relieved. We sat on the balcony, which was lovely despite the rain. I’d love to come back on a sunny day. Great service, great food—well worth the wait!

Probably the best meal we had in Southern Italy. Everything was freshly made right in front of you. You can literally see the chef cooking your meal. Staff was phenomenal and very friendly. They will let you know the menu if you just ask. Food was excellent. Pasta even better. Great views from the balcony table.

A must try in Positano. I first tried Posides last summer after a friend highly recommended the restaurant. It did not disappoint then, and it did not disappoint today. The chefs create a warm environment, where everyone feels like a guest in their home. The rotating menu ensures that you're getting the best Positano has to offer that day. I will definitely be returning for a third visit

This place has all the Positano charm you'd expect. Feels like you're watching a family prepare their meals right in front of you. They have cute seating with an option to sit on the balcony for 1 table, overlooking the island. Also, tomatoes were some of the best we had on the entire trip. Incredible breakfast with lovely mimosas and freshly squeezed juice. Fresh basil, flaky sea salt, and rich pancetta alongside eggs. Can't get much better than that! 5 star service too!

Antonio and his brother have an absolutely lovely restaurant here. We had dinner with them and it was some of the best Italian food we have had. If you are looking for authentic, traditional, family owned, local food, or just a fantastic meal I would highly recommend Posides. If you are lucky enough to be visiting when they do a class I would highly recommend it! The class is small and personal not like some other larger chain companies. Antonio is a very knowledgeable chef and showed us exactly how to recreate his dish at home. The class was very reasonably priced for dinner, unlimited wine, cooking knowledge, wonderful hospitality, and hours of fun! Antonio thank you! We plan on dining with you sometime soon!

We saw conflicting hours info online, showed up and they said they weren't open until 9:15. The place is cute but tiny, only 5-6 tables. But as a result, service was attentive (although the food quite slow to come out). Small breakfast menu, pricing a tad high...our French toast was tasty, yet 20E for one thick slice with berries & cream. You can, however, tell that presentation and flavors are focused on here more than many other restaurants in town.

What a gem! We came here for brunch and I got the Carbonara, which had bountiful egg, pancetta, cheese in a fluffy brioche bun. It was quite hearty and very savory! I also tried bites of the eggs in purgatory, French toast and frittata. All delicious! The eggs in purgatory had great heat to it and the french toast was soo crispy. The vanilla bean ricotta was scrumptious! The ambiance here is lovely and very seaside-esque with blue running throughout the restaurant. Highly recommend for brunch! Edit: We liked this place so much that we came back for dinner. If you like spicy food, you MUST get the spicy seafood stew. It is filled to the brim with various fish (mussels, clams, salmon, etc) and the stew is absolutely scrumptious. I asked for medium spicy and it was just so satisfyingly delicious and spicy. The bread that comes with is hearty and crispy, too!

In Italy for 2 weeks and this was our favorite meal of them all. The meatballs are incredible along with everything else. Family owned restaurant by 2 brothers and their mom. It is worth the trek from the beach. Food and experience is as good as it gets. Also amazing sommelier and most friendly staff!

The brothers at poside are absolutely hilarious. The climb to get to the restaurant is definitely well worth it. I ordered an iced coffee latte to start followed by the must have French toast, and finished with freshly squeezed filtered orange juice. Everything from start to finish here was amazing. Exceptional food and service you will leave with never forgetting. 10/10 recommend

Wonderful little hole in the wall. Food was delicious, service was great. Only a few tables and no high chairs so just keep that in mind-- but worth it if you have to wait for a table as the food was seriously sooo good.

We were lucky enough to walk by Posides one day early in our week long trip in Positano. We ended up going back 4 times. The food was excellent, the people were great and the space was quiet and inviting. There's a little table on the balcony if you want a view, but really we went for the food. We tried several different restaurants during our trip but none of them came close to Posides! My wife and I loved the food and the people!

Such a gem in Positano! Small family owned restaurant with amazing food. The family took the time to chat with us while they prepared lunch and checked in consistently. The lemon creme brûlée was absolutely amazing! I hope they open for dinner soon!

We stood in line for 15-20 minutes for breakfast to then be told they were cutting off breakfast service with the group in front of us. We didn't want to eat lunch here and ended up wasting time having to find a new spot to eat.

Absolutely delicious Came here to have breakfast and it was Devine! Had the eggs in purgatory, they were a perfect amount of spicy.

A must-visit when in Positano! Somehow, this was the first time I've come across an iced drink (on the rock) while in Italy! And it was so good. €4.5 #espressoontherocks #icedlattemacchiato #yum The Avocado Toast con Pomodoro (€13) was the best avocado toast I've tasted, and the French Toast Mascarpone alla Vaniglia (€13) was just as good! Got another Iced Latte Macchiato to go!

So nice, we ate here twice! This place is quite possibly the most AMAZING place we have ever come across. My husband and I came here on our honeymoon (2 short days in Positano) and ate here both days we were here. The carbonara toast is the best thing either of us have ever eaten... to be honest my husband ordered it and I just couldn't keep my hands off it. I also tried the avocado toast the first day, and it was the second best thing either of us have ever eaten.... The final day we opted to try the French toast as well which was quite fabulous BUT I still would fight someone to the death to be able to take that carbonara toast home with me. They are only open from 9-12 but if you have to wait, this place is worth it. The family that runs it was so kind and funny. I'd come to Positano and deal with all of the stairs again just to eat here! Gratzi Mille, Posides!

A dream of a restaurant, it was heaven on Earth. Very cozy atmosphere with a couple of tables so we lucked out to be seated for lunch for a group of 8. We ordered almost everything on the menu and the ingredients were superbly fresh and locally sourced. The ribeye steak was one of the best steaks I've ever had and all the seafood (grilled octopus, scallops, linguine with clams) was delicious! Desserts were also amazing (lemon crème brûlée, berry panna cotta). We would come back here again in a heartbeat. The chef was a gem!

Best restaurant I've ever been to in my entire life. Don't miss this if you're in Positano or you're making a massive mistake.

Posides is a fantastic spot located in Positano on the Amalfi Coast. The staff and owner are super friendly and fun. They have efficient service and explain the food well. The ambiance is great, it's small but they have nice decor and a good view if you sit outside (only one or two tables outside). The food is so delicious, and healthy. They are all homemade dishes. The owner explains he simply cooks how he would cook at home, he never went to culinary school. So if you want some truly authentic Italian food this is the place to try. Everything we had was good but be sure to try the meatballs and the ravioli. Please give Posides a try when you visit Positano, it's amazing and you won't regret it. It's a perfect lunch spot!

Amazing food, the two brothers are hilarious and make for a fun experience while eating the best food we had in Italy.

I am so so sad we waited until the last day to stop in here. Everything was so so fresh. We took a few items to go and I loved them all. Cappuccinos were perfect. The women helping us was so so kind. Inside is small if people decide to stand inside to eat/drink but we were in and out so we didn't mind. Highly recommend.

Meh Okay food Decent coffee Terrible service I feel there are many other options in town that are way better than this. Like casa e bottega.

This was one of my favorite restaurants in Italy. The food was just so delicious and beautiful. You can see how fresh everything is because the kitchen is right there in front of you preparing your food. The staff was very friendly and helpful, and made sure that your experience was great. The chefs would talk to you and make jokes, and it added so much character to the cafe. The casual and comforting ambiance of this little cafe by the sea allowed us the relax and enjoy an amazing meal. The big stand out was the tagliolini with shrimps and lemon. It might be one of the best dishes I've ever had. The fresh amalfi lemon, local shrimp and homemade pasta was perfection. We also loved the homemade ravioli and the sea bass. We ended the meal with Delizia al limone, and it was the best we had on the Amalfi Coast. I highly recommend Posides!

My favorite little spot in Positano. The staff is hilarious and incredible. The food measures up to the best of them. You can even request a small balcony for 2 for a romantic lunch/dinner. I had the ravioli and my wife had the prosciutto and melon salad. Both out of this world.

Absolutely Amazing!! This family small business is a hidden Gem in Small town Positano. Can easily be missed due to how small of a location it is, but when you stumble into it, you will be happy you did. The Service is 2nd to none and they greet you properly and are very attentive. Antonio one of the sons and the main cook did amazing on all of our dishes that we tried the 3 days in a row we attended. Let's not forget about his Texas GF who has a lovable personality who treated us with that Texan Hospitality that can't be miss as she from Houston Texas. Amazing!!! Make sure you all stop here to see for yourself why this is the best place to have lunch in Positano.

A tiny, hidden gem! We stopped in here on our last day and I'm so glad we did! You could almost miss it on the hill, but you shouldn't. We had a table in the corner and could look outside. The views here are amazing. The food though was especially good! We had mozzarella, avocado toast and some prosciutto. This place is family run, and he literally sliced the tomatoes and cheese, etc while chatting with us. His mom ran next door and got the basil for our topping. It was delicious- high quality ingredients served well. Oh, and great wine. And all at a good price! They mother and son were so nice, and it was her birthday! We would definitely go back and recommend you stop in!

The best breakfast we had while in Positano! Great food and great service. Be patient, it does take a little bit because there is only one cook and it's a tiny little space but it's so worth it! They do have a single patio table with a great view but overall you come here for the food, not the view! Definitely recommend! We had their espresso on the rocks, French toast and carbonara toast. All were fantastic! They will even whip you up something not on the menu if you can't find anything that jumps out!

This is hands down the best breakfast in Positano if you're looking for something with more substance than coffee and pastries. The staff were really nice and spoke English. Tiny place but well worth the wait!

Posides is an adorable cafe with delicious food. We ate at Posides for breakfast and got the French toast and lemon ricotta pancakes with a peach sauce (daily special). Both melted in our mouths and were incredibly fresh.

Amazing little spot for great drinks and great food. Started with the caprese salad which was simple but done to perfection and highly recommend. Then my wife and I shared the grilled octopus with spicy tomato sauce and mashed potatoes and the tagliolini with lemon shrimp. Seems like the menu changes daily but so far this was the best meal on our honeymoon.

Take the cooking class! It's a must! So fun and engaging. Small group and each person participates to the meal. We made 2 pastas, meatballs and dessert. The food was so good we came back for lunch the next day.

The best food I've ever had. I got the meatballs and affogato and my boyfriend got the sea bass and lemon cake. We are already looking forward to eating there tomorrow. The atmosphere was perfect - the chef cooks right in front of you and is extremely kind. You can tell he truly is passionate about cooking and making a nice environment for his guests.

The food was delicious. The staff very friendly. Definitely recommend. We ate the best pasta with lemon sauce and shrimp. The place is small and cozy and they make you feel at home.

We walked past this place a few times and decided to try it today. It's a small little cafe with 3 tables inside and one table for 2 on the balcony. Lucky for us the balcony was available. I got scrambled eggs and my wife got the yogurt with pistachio (they were out of granola) and Fruit. The eggs were delicious and I am glad they were as they were the first eggs I've had in about 9 days. They definitely hit the spot.

Looks like just a cafe, but they serve better food than most restaurants around. I had the special Nona burger and it was . The French toast was amazing too. Great service, very chilled out, overall awesome experience, no complaints.

This quaint little cafe is dishing out some of the most incredible and unique Italian dishes in Positano. Run by the absolute nicest family, we had the opportunity to meet Antonio and Ilario, brothers who make this place feel like home for every person who walks through the door. We went twice during our quick trip and wish we could have visited once more before leaving to try more of their creative plates. Stop in! You won't regret it

Great food and drinks, and even better hospitality! I will come here every time I visit Positano.

Such a great spot! Went there for breakfast every day. Ricotta toast was heavenly. Very fresh, chef grows the food locally. Owned by two brothers, very charming. Amazing ambiance and service!

Touched down to Positano after being around Italy for several days. One of the best pastas I've had during my stay here. Seems like the lunch menu changes to maintain freshness of the ingredients. We had the burrata with anchovies/crouton/lemon/cherry tomatoes. Just delicious. But what shined was the shrimp linguini. This dish is made of just pasta water, lemon, and fresh Sicilian red shrimp. The shrimp is thrown in last just mild searing. The shrimp was perfect- texture and taste is akin to Japanese sweet shrimp amaebi but hot. Absolutely amazing with just those ingredients. The Service was excellent. Antonio, the chef, was very passionate about each dish. If you're in this area, would highly highly recommend. The cafe is a humble, cool little space with only one 3-person table on the balcony with a partial but beautiful view of the Positano harbor. However, the food easily stole the show. We happened to stumble upon it, and we are lucky we did.

We had breakfast at the super-neat, small cafe - wow! I recommend the French toast dish - never had anything like it, but a perfect dish. Great vibe and nice people. Enjoy!

Great drinks. Relaxed atmosphere, beautiful terrace if you're lucky enough to claim it. :)

One of the best breakfast i have had in Italy. Recommend going earlier to see if you can get the balcony seat!

Posides Cafe is favoloso! I have been in Positano for 2 weeks and this cafe was our go-to for breakfast, lunch and dinner. The quality of the food is authentic Italian with the finest ingredients, priced more than fairly. The owners are 2 brothers, Antonio and Ilario. They are charming, talented and have learned all the best from their beautiful Neopolitan mamma, Annalisa! They speak excellent English as well. Don't miss this wonderful experience in gorgeous Positano. #BeautifulLifestyle #PositanoLove

Loved the friendly atmosphere from the moment we walked in the restaurant. Cozy environment made for a delightful afternoon. Thank you Annalisa for the smile at the door inviting us in, Lario for the great drinks, Antonio for the fabulous food and Carolina for the service with a smile.

Best place for breakfast in postiano hands down. Antonio is a great man and will treat you as family!

This place was incredible! Best meal in Positano-- simple and fresh ingredients with an outstanding chef!

Fantastic hidden gem best food in Positano or Almalfi coast. Sad we found it last day of our trip. Would definitely go again. Family is super sweet. Chef, Antonio is very young and very talented. Food was delicious. Best home made meal.

Service is incredible and food is delicious! French toast and affogato were my favorite. Also one of the few restaurants open for breakfast in the off season. We will definitely be back!!

6 stars if offered!! Kind & Personal - the owner brothers offer an experience that will have you back the next day and the next. Walk in and the stunning view out the back is off a one-table balcony overlooking the water. Hard to beat. The food is fresh with taste combinations that are so flavorful proving simplicity is exceptional. The zucchini with burrata served with a vinegar, mint & garlic marinade is the perfect combo to pile onto your fresh bread - this is a must. The eggplant park is a great mid-day portion and is also very tasty. Find this little gem and you will be glad you did.
