| - I was searching for a good place for dinner near my hotel, and when I found the reviews of Positano on yelp, I headed out to find it. Unfortunately, it was a Monday night, and Positano was closed. I really wanted to try it, though, so I went back on Tuesday night and was welcomed by a friendly server. The menu lists starters, pastas and pizzas, but the main courses are described by the server, and they all sounded amazing. I chose a grilled sea bass, served over veggies and potatoes. Just know that the price for the specials aren't given unless you ask (which I failed to do), so expect something around $30 for a main.
The fish was prepared well, but the highlight of my night was the bread and tomato sauce. While most Italian places serve warm, fresh baked bread with olive oil for dipping, Positano serves their bread with homemade tomato sauce. It's absolutely to die for. It tastes creamy and makes the bread melt in your mouth. I normally try not to eat a lot of bread before a meal, but I ate 3 pieces, and went through 1 and a half dishes of the tomato sauce. Yum!!!
I'd also recommend the lemon tiramisu. It sounds strange, but it's a great, light dessert for summer.
