Good deals, friendly staff and good location for tea before a drink in NB. Not my favourite Italian restaurant for food but I still would return.
Not the nicest or most modern looking dining place around, but food is not bad. We enjoyed the Chilli Mussels with Garlic Bread and the Tagliatelle Al Granchio (pasta with blue swimmer crabmeat). Both dishes were tasty and generous in portion sizes. Particularly liked how the mussels were cleaned out very well; no beard / smell.
Had the Fish of The Day- fish was cooked well and moist, but would have been better if the skin was a little more crispy and chips served on the side, as some of them turned soggy with the fish 'juice' dripping onto them.
Tiramisu was on the sweet side, light and pleasant.
Weather was beautiful, hence we opted to sit outside. With the nice breeze blowing, good food and bubbly service, we had a lovely dining experience.
Food is generally good, but too bad about the fish that was given in the seafood platter. It is usually barramundi but it was basa fillets given and the moreton bay bug was not so fresh as the meat is bland. I supposed the cost of the dish made up for it at $55.
I had a movie at Paradiso at 1pm so I wanted to fit in a quick lunch; 40 minutes beforehand. I decided to go across the road, and asked the waiter whether they could deliver. He assured me they could, and brought out the menu. I asked for his suggestions on pasta and matching wine, and went with tagliatelle al marinella, Fresh homemade pasta tossed with a selection of seafood in a traditional napolitana sauce, and a glass of cabernet. Drinks came out quickly and the pasta was not too far behind. It looked good and overall the pasta was very enjoyable with lots of seafood and mussels. Service was attentive, and the waiter had a good sense of humour keeping punters amused. Basic, but tasty Italian, in the heart of Northbridge.
If you're after authentic Italian food then this is the place for you. We were waited on as soon as we walked through the door. The pasta was delicious and I would recommend the penne gondola for sure! There was a great vibe throughout the restaurant which added to the ambience. I would definitely come back! 😀
Do yourself a favour - try it, great food and service. Yes the interior is a bit average but the rest more than makes up for it. We dine out a lot and it was great.
Absolutely LOVELY waiting staff! Everyone bent over backwards to make us feel special. The food was OK but it was eclipsed by how much fun the full experience was. Thank you Positano Staff for adding magic to the evening!! I will certainly be back.
Lovely Northbridge institution. Great homely Italian food..friendly service. Tagliatelle Delicate... yum...al fresco service. .watch the world go by..

Visited this place on Easter Monday.
I really enjoy a place what's not so crowded so pretty happy with my choice of going to Positano.
It was my first time here.
Had calamari with homemade tarts sauce and salad as an entree. Size of the entree is good. Calamari were nice.
As a main I choose to go for the seafood pasta. Can't remember the name of it I think it doesn't matter because the homemade pasta was amazing. It smelled so nice and tasted even better. I would recommend to get extra bread on a side with the pasta, because it has that really nice cream sauce. Nice bread will help to finish it off.
For the dessert I had pudding. It wasn't as good as I was expecting. The pudding it self was bit too salty. All thou the ice cream made it a good balance.
I was expecting it to be more sweeter. But its just me, because I love sweet food.
The service was really good.
European girl was creating me when I was reading the menu outside and she was more than happy to provide me with more information about the menu. She seat me at the table what I liked.
Gentleman, European as well, was really friendly and professional.
Once in all, food was fast, location is good, food is beautiful and service really enjoyable! I'll be back. Thank you guys. :)
We enjoyed a pleasant dining experience, despite the bread that was served being as stiff as a surf board. Sorentos across the road had far more patrons, but it is unjustifiably expensive. Positano had very friendly service and the pasta was not exceptional but good. The place to go if Sorrentos is booked out. The manager, rather than sitting on his posterior drinking wine, should be helping his staff serve and clean up. The best restaurants are never lazy with everybody working very hard. A bit more energy and devotion would see this restaurant lift up.
My partner and I had dinner here just last night and it was a great experience. We were celebrating our anniversary and the waitress went to a lot of effort for us, which made the experience even better. If you are looking for a good meal in an unpretentious place then this is where to go. The meals are reasonably priced, and we didn't mind waiting a bit for the food. We could at least feel confident that we weren't being served any 'fast' food. The homemade Tiramisu was definitely the best I have ever had! We will definitely be going back and hoping to make this our new go-to place for a decent meal.
The food was delicious and was very reasonably priced, as was the wine. Atmosphere a but flat but it was a Sunday night. Other tables seemed to have issues with slow service and there were some self-proclaimed "coffee snobs" who took exception to the cafe lattes, but no-one's perfect.
Had dinner here tonight for Valentine's day and the service and food where amazing. All the staff are extremely nice and we did not have to wait long for our food or drinks. Definitely coming back.
