We were so grateful we were able to eat at this restaurant. We got in late in the day and there weren’t many options but this exceeded expectations. eggplant Parmesan we got was some of the best and most unique that we had all in Italy. The view here is beautiful.

Stopped here for a quick drink. Manager met us at the front and was very nice and welcoming. Espresso martinis were great and the ambience is beautiful.

We accidentally stepped on this gem of restaurant. Amazing breath taking view, perfect for couples date and romantic dinner. The music, food, service, everything was extraordinary. Thank you.

THE MOST EXPENSIVE RESTAURANT IN POSITANO! here is why it’s not worthy. Not parking, The view is ok, service is just ok as well as I saw a lot of waiters talking among them and not paying attention to their customers. The food is the worst part of this place as the salty fish that costs $60 has not flavor and just a bit of meat, def not worthy, don’t remember the other dish but pretty sure not good either cause I would remember it. Only good thing was the wine which it costs 80 bucks the bottle. Just skip this place and find other restaurant with a better view.

Priveliștea noaptea e superbă! Mâncarea e deosebită, cu gust și porți destule! Recomand pește și pastele! Personalul amabil și rapid! Merită să vii aici dacă ești în vizită în Positano!

View is great and food is ok but service is lacking.
First time we went here for dinner, it was great. Second year we went again in 2023, and it was not the same. Service went downhill. The waiter and waitresses lack the communication skills and you end up with 'surprise' items on your bill. If you want a nice view, eat here. If you want great service, save your money and eat elsewhere.

Stunning waterfront views are on the menu for dinner. I started with a local red wine and it was very good. We ordered two pasta dishes, and they were also good. The service was nice, but the place is a bit pricey compared to other local restaurants. I recommend this restaurant for the experience and ambiance more than for the food.

The view here is really great & we had great service. The food was good although the price point is a little high compared to similar places in Positano. The pasta dish was delicious as well as the beef appetizer. The cocktails & dessert were good but not great.

Initially was greeted and felt very welcomed, however our waited was rude and seemed like we were bothering him when we asked for a bottle of still water, not tap. Food was okay, not great for the price. Nice presentation but small plates for what you're paying. Beautiful view of the sea I guess that’s what you're paying for.

This is the place where our wedding was taken this summer. So first of all I want to thank all the people from the Il Capitano Staff.
They really take care of every single detail so our wedding day to be perfect.
The terrace is absolutely a perfect location with a perfect view.
Our wedding menu was so delicious and the plating was so elegant and beautiful. All our guests was impressed by the food.
Also the staff was really helpfull and made our night unforgettable.
If we would do our wedding again, we wouldn't change anything!

Thank you very much to every single person in the staff, and we cannot wait to see you again!

The views are stunning just before sunset. The food was also tasty and it was a calm and cool vibe here.

We wandered in here on a whim our very first night in Positano, and our only regret was that we didn't make it back again before we left! The best mozzarella I've ever had, plus amazing pasta and the freshest, most delicious aperitif. The views are stunning, and the atmosphere is cool and modern. Just make sure to call ahead and check on their schedule—they seem to host a lot of weddings, so they might not be open for dinner every night you're there.

Food presentation was very nice. Service was fine. Food quality was just not very good. My filet mignon was far too tough, did not taste fresh, and was undercooked as I requested medium. $40 filet was like an undercooked $20 sirloin. My wife’s eggplant parmigiana ended up being a very small eggplant tortellini and was undercooked as well. Water was $6/bottle. Cover charge of $4/person. Paying a premium for a view. Food wasn’t bad but wasn’t great. Walk up the hill to Luna for epic view fine dining experience. After 11 days in Italy this ended up being both the most expensive dinner we had and the most disappointing. 2 stars for the view.

Murray location with amazing views. My comments are in comparison to what we have had over the last week in Positano. The service at Il Capitano was average (slow), food and wine was overpriced. We have eaten at some amazing restaurants in Positano and unfortunately I would not recommend this one.

The food was really good, but the staff and owner are terrible. They have their rich rich favourite people who they put in the best places and give them extra attention. About the rest they just don’t care.

Lovely seafood restaurant located in Monte Mare Hotel. This place has great food but greater service. Our waiter was just amazing and very friendly. Beautiful view with incredible ambience. It is a must visit in Positano if you don’t mind a climb. We had a great night and the energy of the crowd at the restaurant that night matched with the view. Salt crusted branzino was a bit pricey but it was good, baked sea bream was just yummy. Their hugo cocktail which was sold to us by our friendly waiter was also great. Would recommend it.

We were discriminated for a supervisor because we can't seat in the terrace like other people who were taking a drink too. The place was was empty. Excuses given were absurd. Nice place and bad human atention.
