we waited for the appetizers
to arrive, Denise brought us
a basket of warm homemade
bread which is baked fresh
daily on the premises. To say
the bread was superb is an
understatement, but I can’t come
up with a word that adequately
describes how wonderful it really was.
Shortly after the bread arrived, our appetizers were
delivered to the table. For me, having a
meal that is truly memorable is a
culmination of presentation, taste,
atmosphere and service. The
presentation of the food was
fantastic (as is evident by
the pictures) and the taste
was divine. And, while they
made a few upgrades to the
interior, the atmosphere was
perfectly conducive to a fine
dining experience and the service
was sensational! (Thanks a million

so good, by the speed in which we ate them, anyone looking

helping…it was that good.
The menu at Positano has something
for everyone from salads
and soups to baked pasta,
sandwiches and pizza. If
there is nothing that suits
your fancy, you can create
your own dish from a list of
different pastas and sauces.
But, of course, the best part of
the menu is the desserts. You
can choose from Spumoni Ice
Cream, Limoncello Cake, Tiramisu,
Cannoli or Classic Vanilla Cheesecake.
Sherry ordered the Tiramisu, Sally had a cannoli and I
orderd the Limoncello, which is my favorite
dessert. next to Key Lime Pie All three
