This place is busy because of its location, not its food. We were sat quickly and seen to by a waiter who came by a little too frequently until we ordered. My baked local fish was supposed to be au gratin, but I didn't see any potatoes; the cod tempura wasn't far off from what I'd get from a Whole Foods freezer, and the caesar salad was made by someone who's read the description and never eaten on - just look at those big chunks of bacon! The glass of falaghina was the rare example of bad table wine in Italy. Feel free to keep walking, knowing you're not missing much. read more

Good- the location and view. Just off the water. Service charge $3 per person. Food was good, but the smallest portions we have had in a week? Grilled squid consisted of 3 small tubular rings and 1 small piece with tentacles. It came on a bed of cold zucchini pieces. My wife's ravioli was good. Typical ricotta/spinach. Chef's special. Nice place to hang out but $$$ for what you get. Walk up the hill a bit read more

Cute little outdoor seating by the sea was the only draw about going to Capricci Positano. The service was sub-par with a "could care less" attitude about the customer, which morphed into an admonishing one. Apparently each outdoor section (non-labeled) is designated for different menu items. All my husband and I wanted was a quick afternoon dessert with a cold drink. What we got when ordering was indignation and a "You can't order that at these tables." When I raised my eyebrows, he allowed us to stay put. I know In the US, restaurants can have issues.... But they wouldn't last 2 weeks with average overpriced food and a condescending attitude! read more

The worst meal we had on the Amalfi coast. Uninspired offerings that took forever to get and atrocious, unfriendly service. The salads were bland and the pizzas we split were insipid. Disgusting, dirty restrooms and just an overall ambivalence to their guests. Head higher up into Positano for a better meal and avoid this tourist trap near the marina. read more

Staff is nice and prices are fair. We only got a pizza that was recommended to us by the staff (no meat). It was my second favorite pizza on this trip but my wife's number 1. What made this pizza was the olive oil which made the pizza a bit messy but worth it. read more

Came here for the first time after a long boat cruise here. The service was good as the welcome back to her table. The food was fresh and delicious. The customer service is very attentive. The environment was amazing looking over to the Amalfi coast. I come back to Italy. I'm definitely coming back to this restaurant. read more

Tourist trap with flavorless food. My cocktail was disgusting and steak had zero seasoning on it. Our fried cod appetizer tasted like it was from a mall food court. The staff was also not very friendly. There are much better restaurants in Positano. read more

We needed a quick snack in Positano, and this hit the spot. The pizza is really good! The service isn't that great. They did not want people to sit down and just order drinks because they insisted they needed the tables for the lunch crowd. It wasn't a problem for us though. read more

Good pizza wish sauce had a bit more taste but great service and crust is amazing. I would recommend if you are here later they are open until 10:30 and they are insanely quick with their pizza took less than 10 minutes to get the whole pie together read more

This was by far the worst meal I've had in Italy, and one of the worst I've had in general. Unless you've just swam ashore from a shipwreck and this is the only place open, I'd avoid at all costs. The price for what you get is absolutely criminal. read more

Positano is definitely one of those towns I wish I had more time to spend in. We spent an afternoon cruising down the Amalfi Coast making a pit stop in Positano. Our guide gave us about 90 minutes to explore and told us "make sure you get something to eat!" We used our time to walk down to the water, wander in a couple shops and sit down for lunch at Capricci. The gal behind the counter was less than amused by us Americani as we tried to pronounce menu items but we made it though... ordering up a Positano Pie (mozzarella, cherry tomato, ham and zucchini) (€6.50) and an order of meatballs/sauce (€7.50). + a couple drinks - the entire meal was less than 20 euros. Both dishes were fantastic. Thin crust pizza with all those fresh ingredients - how can you go wrong there!? The meatballs were huge, and so flavorful, I think there were 3 in the order. I long to go back to Positano... if it ever happens I'll totally go back to Capricci. Lots of different pizzas and paninos to try. And I've been working on my pronunciations - I think the Capricci staffer would be impressed with my efforts. read more

Amazing pizza - thick chewy crust. Totally lives up to Neapolitan pizza ideals. The Greek salad was delish too. If I went back to Positano I'd eat here again. The server was pretty nice about getting us in and out quickly because our tour guide requested it. Tables are down a flight of stairs behind the restaurant - if you come through the front. The upstairs is just for takeout or quick bites. Restrooms are also down the stairs, a sharp turn left at bottom of stairs. read more

We just spent a day on the beach and wanted a quick bite to each. Saw a bunch of people sitting on the side of the stairs leading up the hill and saw that they also served smoothies so we sat down and ate here. The pizza was soggy and they used canned Mushrooms and small pieces of proscuitto - the crust wasn't even good. Probably one of the worse places I've had pizza in Italy. They serve smoothies though so it was nice after a day on the beach. read more

Shocking place, typically vile service, rubbish food and waited ages for everything, avoid this place like the Plague!

Saw the server blowing his nose then didn't even bother to sanitize his hands, just stepped out to greet anyone waiting. Gross, esp with covid going on read more

Good food, awful service and organization. Came here twice while in the area and the first time the food was delicious and service was ok since it wasn't so busy. The second time was just puzzling and a nuisance. I originally came and it was busy, and I asked the host if there was a list I could put my name on, and if it was just better to wait there or return. The host said that they don't do lists, and that it was up to me on whether I wait or return. I told him I'd return, and when I came back I waited in what was a line in front of the host's station. Not only did the host and numerous waiters acknowledge me standing right in front of the station, but even smiled. After maybe 20 minutes of waiting, the owner came by and I asked what was going on, and he said they were no longer seating people (even though there were various empty tables). The food may be good, but when the owner acknowledges you multiple times while you obviously wait for a table without mentioning that they're no longer seating, that's just ridiculous. If you're in the area and it isn't busy, I'd recommend the place. If it looks even slightly busy, I'd skip it entirely, because they clearly aren't organized enough to deal with a high volume of people. read more

The place is very nice and the food was excellent. The lasagna Rosada was great and the spaghetti with clam very tasty.also with ate as appetizer calamari and shrimp fry was good read more

Service was great. Our waiter was very friendly and seemed like a funny character. We selected a fish from their catch of the day platter. It was $48 euro and they grilled it. Potatoes were extra. Everything had a fishy taste so I didn't like our meal too much. Ambiance was fine. It was a cool but sunny day and quite enjoyable aside from the smoker next to us. read more

We got there around noon I first wanted to order an ice cream/gelato but the waiter(rude guy prob early 20's) was like "no we don't have" finally we order the drinks and we didn't want anything to eat at the time; long story short 20 minutes later no drinks mind you nothing complicated two peach Bellinis so unfortunately we left and he didn't seem to care not sure it was just cause we have ordered drinks only at the time but oh well, and it wasn't even busy! read more

A seemingly touristy spot that actually has decent food for reasonable prices. We had only tried a sandwich and the octopus salad, but I must say, the octopus salad was definitely on par in taste and portion size with nearly all the octopus dishes I ordered all over the Amalfi coast, even in fine dining restaurants. Definitely worth a try for some tasty food (that you can take to go) at a decent price. read more

I feel we were scammed. They have a menu posted on the door next to the hostess/cashier. We were not aware that this was the menu for only upstairs. So we knew what we were going to order because of the prices listed. BUT, when the bill came the price was different. THe pizza on the menu next to the door was $10 and we paid $16 for having it sitting down. Now, that would not be a problem IF they did not also charge us a table fee. We were 3 people and they charged us $9 for table service. THEN, they also upped the menu prices. They said these charges were for sitting in the restuarant. Again, I get it if they did one or the other, but to charge us an upgraded price and a table service because we sat down. I was really upset about this and would never go back. BEWARE and check out prices and hidden charges before you order! read more

We were on a flying visit to Positano at lunch time so ended up here. The weather was lousy - and eventually started pouring with rain - so it was a good use of our time! We entered by going down some stairs and were seated out on the patio. There were quite a few flies (it was a problem everywhere we went). The patio area is covered and has plastic walls, which were open when we sat. Once the rain picked up I got up and closed the 'wall' as I was getting wet. The food was fine, but not amazing. I wasn't too hungry so I just ordered a couple of apps, which I split with my husband, who also had some pasta. My arancini were really very nice, lots of flavour. Unfortunately my mozzarella in carrozza weren't great - bland, and the accompanying sauce wasn't good either. I rarely leave fried cheese behind but I only had 1 of the 3 pieces. Husband seemed to enjoy his pasta, but wasn't enthusiastic. Service was perfunctory and could have been a bit more efficient. Luckily it all worked out and we got away in time as needed. It wasn't too expensive - if you're just doing pasta, you're looking at €10-€15 per person, including a drink. They do bring bread, and of course this means there's a cover charge (I think it was €2 per person). It wouldn't be my choice to return to but there's no reason to avoid Capricci, either. read more

***Deserves 5 stars all around*** Anyone who doesn't give this place 5 stars is absolutely out of their mind. The value for the level of food you get is amazing. We have eaten here twice a day during our entire stay. The staff is so friendly and I can say without a shadow of a doubt this is the best pizza I have ever had in my life. If you come to Positano and don't get the Monaco pizza then you have to come back. It's a bit of a hole in the wall place but so worth it! read more

This place is quite overpriced, and make sure to double check your bill! They tried to charge us for two pizzas even though we only got one and gave us a service charge for 6 people even though there were only 4 of us. In terms of food and drink, the aperol betty was quite refreshing, and we got a caprese salad for two that had a giant mozzarella ball. It was almost as big as my head! The mozzarella wasn't very fresh, though, and I wish the salad had more tomatoes to balance out the mozzarella. We also got a caprizzi pizza that had a wonderful tomato sauce and lots of seafood on top. That was probably the highlight of the meal. The service was quick, too, unlike most I've experienced in Italy. Capricci is definitely meant for tourists, but it's still an okay spot if you're willing to spend a little more than usual and wary of them trying to scam you. read more

What a lovely, quaint, and more importantly deeeeeelicious little spot! Go upstairs, there's a chic balcony with a perfect view that's a little more intimate. We stopped in for a capricci salad and prosciutto sandwich (both amazing) as a quick snack after reading other reviews. read more

We were limited in places to eat due to off season. This one was near the sea and had a great setting. We had Octopus with linguine, gnocchi, macaroni and seafood, and pizza. Coupled with a couple of bottles of very nice white wine, the meal was a hit. read more

What a complete waste of money... Me and my wife had woken up from a siesta and worked up an appetite from our morning adventures. We decided to order something quick and fast since we had late dinner reservations that night. We happened to stumble across this place while walking around since it was near the beach. We figured we'll just order something to snack on. We both ordered their "pizza rolls" and some calamari. Absolutely TERRIBLE. Both of ours were barely microwave warm. Cheese was still hard. Mine had chips inside which were absolutely stale and cold. It took two bites into our food until we both looked at each other and realized we got screwed. My wife also ordered calamari, which took roughly 20 min after our first food came out. It was very chewy and bland. I understand you're in Positano, and everything is typically more than you would spend else where. But for 20 euros... we got scammed with crappy food. Do yourself a favor and look at other places to eat. read more

My review is not even worth my time. Just don't eat here the food was disgusting and beyond over priced. The service was awful. I asked the waiter if the pizza was from a wood burning oven he told me yes when i went to use the washroom I saw an electric oven. The carbonara looked like scrambled eggs with pasta. 4 of us ate and maybe had a bite each of the food. It was extremely disappointing. read more

Everything was in place to make this a memorable meal. Great night, good company. The staff was crabby and my meal wasn't edible. There were more minor issues but I don't want to dump. I sure hope it was an off night for this place or they are just burnt out from the season. I sure hope other diners had a better experience. read more

Visited Positano as part of my tour of amalafi coast. Stopped at Capricci for lunch and quick drink. We ordered marinara pizza and few drinks. The pizza was really good and based on the food I would have given 5 stars. However, dropped it to 4 stars based on the service. It was slow and had to remind few times of getting our drinks and side of olive oil. This restaurant is located right by the beach with great ambiance. read more

I've been in search of the Bestest Pizza ever for the past week, while traveling Italy. I mean that's what a Pizza Loving Foodie does while in Italy right? Well li, probably gained about 10 LBS in the past week, eating about 2 pizzas a day, plus other local dishes but it's all worth it now. This was the last place I hit up at Positano, I wasn't even intending on eating out last night. I guess Capricci found me, cause this is by far the most tasteful, straight to the Taste Buds Margherita Pizza I've ever had. Next time, I would asked for it uncut, but since it was originally a To-Go order, I understood. They have a downstairs sit down restaurant, I just wanted to see why soo many to go boxes from this place where in all the trash cans all along the beach. Now I know, cause it's Hella Good. That why. Wish i would have come across them a week sooner, I'd probably be 5 LBS heavier and would have to check myself in at the airport luggage section but I'd be that much happier. All in all, i highly recommend this small 2nd story miniature balcony spot, overlooking the water of you're ever anywhere near the Amalfi Coast region. Climb, walk, drive or be driven here. Tu our taste buds will thank you. read more

Terrible restaurant mainly because of the waiter was incredibly rude; just tossing down our menus and not answering any of the questions we had about the menu. Food was nothing special, definitely can find much better options a couple steps away at the same price. Tagliatelle bolognese was watery and too much sauce. When we were paying for the bill and wanted to include some small euro change that we had, he didn't want to accept it! It's money! Overall, would not reco. read more

First...these pictures don't do it justice. We were visiting from California for a two week stay in Italy. Stopped here for lunch. The pictures you see are from the top portion of the restaurant. They also have sit down on the balcony and down the stairs (go inside and look to the right for the stairs) on the patio with a view of the ocean. Its a great location with a great view! We shared plates we ordered. The mixed seafood plater was wonderful. I wish we had eaten at this restaurant every day. We shared a fruit platter also. I recommend all of it. It was a relief to have something other than pasta and pizza. They can also fix a western style breakfast with pancakes and eggs! check it out. I also agree with the others. We visited Capri (a waste of time) as it is very crowed. Ravello is nice with few shops all having the same thing (but the Estates there make it worth the trip). Positano is the nicest town we visited on the Amalfi Coast. Best for shopping and eating. read more

The only good thing about our visit was the friendly staff. I got a caprese panini that actually wasn't a panini and it didn't have any basil. When i advised the staff he brought some out bunched up in his hand. My husbands "meatball" panini was rock hard. Trying with force i couldn't push my finger through it. When the replacement came it was more like beef slop instead of meatballs. They were not busy and the initial wait was 25 minutes. I do not recommend. read more
