Caffe Positano

Stopped in for a slice and had the best slice of a ricotta white pie. Seriously could not have been better. And the service was very friendly and super fast! I give them a 10!

We used to like this place. Twice we’ve came here and the pizza and pasta we ordered was amazing. We would go here after shopping at target or the other nearby shops. Tonight was for the same reason, came here after shopping. Tonight it was terrible. I had the seafood mix pasta and my fiancé has the spaghetti with meat sauce. It took more than 30 minutes to get our food. We had to stop the waiter to refill our drinks every time. Mind you, it was NOT A busy night at all. My food really tasted like tomato sauce and sea water. My fiancé’s plate had NO marinara sauce at all. It was ground beef and spaghetti noodles. I don’t think we’ll be coming here anymore for their pasta. But we do like their pizza.

Stopped in after the lunch rush, there were two occupied tables. I sat at a table near the counter and was ignored for about ten minutes as the two servers working walked passed me a couple of times before I decided to leave.

Their spaghetti… still amazing! The service and accuracy is not good. This once favorite place is leaving lots of room for improvement with their order fulfillment.
Once in a while I dine in, but usually I order take out here. The last three take out orders have been incorrect even when I arrive and confirm the order with the cashier. This time I called in my order about 20 minutes before coming into the restaurant. When I arrived at the restaurant the cashier confirmed my order (again) and instead of them having my order ready it looks like they just put it in when I arrived. Weird. I had to wait for a while to get my order and even though I confirmed it with the cashier as soon as I left I checked my food. Again it was the wrong order. Because I had just stepped outside the door to check my order I came back in and explained that it wasn’t what I had ordered. The person behind the counter told me «I don’t know I just make pizza». I don’t know what’s going on. I do love their food but do not want to come back if the service is going to be this inconsistent. Please start listening to customers when they order or confirm orders, it would cut down on mistakes. Disappointed.

Being from New York city, I am very spoiled when it comes to my pizza and Italian food. So let me just say how happy I am to have found Café Positano! They are located in a small strip mall in front of Target and they deliver!!! I have ordered from them numerous times and each time the food is outstanding! The pizza is thin crust, crispy with delicious sauce and fresh and yummy toppings. We usually get it with fresh garlic and eggplant and its to die for! I would highly recommend Café Positano for dine in or delivery!!!

Some of the best Authentic Italian cuisine around! Pizza is AMAZING, especially their white pizza! We have been here several times and the service and food is always fantastic!

Bianca pizza was fantastic we added sliced tomatoes — It looked just as good as it tasted !

I love this place. Best pizza in the state!!!
Everyone is friendly and service is always great.

Best Italian outside of my Mom’s kitchen! My husband and I make a 45 minute trek down to Sanford just for the food here and adamantly refuse to order pizza anywhere else. Many of the people working here are from Italy so they know what they’re doing.
Service is fast and friendly. Food is fantastic! I personally recommend the plain cheese pizza which is a thin, crispy crust topped with a thin layer of flavorful sauce, and the perfect amount of mozzarella cheese. The garlic knots are an absolute must with any meal. Large puffs of bread perfection slathered in oil and chopped garlic unlike other places that cover their knots in garlic powder and call it a day… oh no, not at Caffe Positano!
If you’re in the mood for authentic Italian Positano will hit the spot. Be sure to end your meal with a cannoli, they’re absolutely delicious!

Ever had one of those nights where you work late and you’re starving, yet have no desire to cook anything? And even heating up leftovers seems like too much work? Yeah, so that happened to Hubby and I the other night. It was chilly out too, so we were really craving something warm and comforting. When searching for something nearby, Caffe Positano came up on our radar. We had been meaning to try it for awhile, so this seemed like the perfect opportunity.
Caffe Positano is located in one of the small strip plazas in front of the Super Target. It’s quaint and cozy on the inside. After we were seated, I overheard the cook and one of the servers speaking Italian… this made my stomach excited! There’s nothing better than eating Italian food cooked by a real Italian, am I right?! Hubby and I decided to split a house salad, half order of garlic knots and cheese ravioli with meat sauce. The salad was nice and crisp, topped with tomato, carrot, red cabbage and black olives. The garlic knots were yummy — slathered in butter and ton of garlic (vampires beware!). And for the ravioli, well let’s just say the plate was pretty much licked clean! The meat sauce was especially delish. While we were eating, I could tell a lot of regulars were coming through. The gentleman, whom I presume was the owner, knew their names and warmly greeted them. And when we were on our way out, he even made a point to ask us how everything was. I have a feeling we’ll be back real soon to sample some of the other pasta dishes. Oh and they have pizza too!

Let me start off by saying I am a huge pizza junkie being from LA where I can get good pizza everywhere & after reading multiple reviews I decided to give this place a shot… so here it goes: I ordered my food at 8pm which was a pepperoni & sausage pizza pie, fried calamari, cheese ravioli. My food was delivered at 8:30 exact. I have ordered pizza many times & never has it made it before 30 minutes especially for a Saturday night. Opened my food & the food was cold looked old my ravioli looked like a two year old made it & it tasted so bland. The pizza was old so hard to eat because it tasted like the food was sitting out the whole time. The fried calamari was so chewy & the texture was just off & made me sick.
When I called them about my concerns asking to speak to a manager… The manager comes on the phone & says «well it takes only ten minutes to make a pizza» & was being very rude & which to my concern didn’t care. I told him I didn’t want my money back but you should care more about your food. He didn’t care and just hung up on me. Obviously he has poor customer service skills & didn’t care about his food. Don’t order from here save yourself! Try Pacino’s Pizzeria or Riverwalk Pizzeria. Much better selection and their food is always fresh & yummy! Don’t waste your money here!

Very good pizza I think would be even better if consumed on their premises we ordered it for delivery. We had a random but great encounter with another branch at edgewater drive in orlando and that was a 5 star pizza consumed on premises. So we had to try the local branch. Will give them a home visit sometime soon and update. One thing to note was that the margarita pizza ordered at edgewater was constructed of different crust and round cheese balls melted into it. This one was a bit different. Nonetheless an excellent pizza. The cheese pizza we ordered was not so good because it was too salty and hence the 4 stars.

This place is the real deal for NY style pizza. Best pizza in Seminole County. Service has always been good. Other Italian dishes are good, but not great.

Food was amazing! Service was amazing! Its so fresh and delish. Seriously the best pizza ive ever had!!! Garlic knots with the best marinara south of NY. And everyone is polite and clean lol. I am still amazed

When your in the mood for real NY Style Pizza this place is hands down the best. Service is great. Pizza is like it should be and made just right.

My guilty pleasure as far as food goes is most definitely pizza. I am not a fan of the chain pizza places, like Papa Johns, Hungry Howie’s or Pizza Hut. Instead, I choose to spend my calories and my money eating at pizza joints that are not global giants. From all the I have tried, Café Positano is most definitely my favorite. It is real New York Style Pizza made with the freshest of ingredients. I am a creature of habit and always order the pepperoni and extra cheese and have never been disappointed.
They do deliver to my house which is always convenient with my busy schedule. I typically find myself ordering on Mondays when I have the kids so that I can spend time catching up with them instead of cooking dinner. The delivery is typically fast although recently I did have to wait a little longer than quoted on the phone. I have never dined in, although they do have a small comfortable seating area and a full Italian menu.
The prices aren’t as competitive as the larger pizza chains as a large pizza with one topping delivered runs around $ 20, but the quality of the food certainly makes up for that.
I would definitely recommend Café Positano.

Located on WP Ball Rd in Sanford, just in front of the plaza with the World Market, Ulta, Sports Authority, Super Target, Etc.
My office ordered from here and we enjoyed a tasty white pizza, staff was very nice and the pizza was delicious. A large is a great sized 18″ pizza. Wonderful crust. Garlic rolls are delicious.
Recently ordered a large take home pie and (½ & ½) I enjoyed the fresh mushrooms, hubby really liked the pepperoni and the lack of greasiness that you can get with other pizzas. Nice toppings ratio, good prices. Will order from here very soon!

I guess I’m amazed that I’ve never been here before, aside from the location not being convenient to where I usually go out to. I had a friend bring me here for lunch, and was pleasantly surprised by both the quality of the food, and the value for the price.
I ordered a lunch special they have, where you get two slices of pizza and a house salad for about $ 6.00. The pizza was good, nice and crispy, as you would expect from a place that touts New York style pizza. The salad is where it truly shined. They have an Italian house dressing there that has almost a gelatinous consistency, but it was quite good. It was interesting trying to spread it over your salad, and yet really just had a unique flavor you don’t get it regular Italian dressing. It also served great purpose for dipping your crust of your pizza into. The garlic knots here were also top notch. Now I’ll just have to come back and try other things I hear are great.

Been here twice, thoroughly enjoyed Café Positano both times.
Funny, as I was walking in on my most recent visit – I held the door open for a mother and son leaving at the same time. Mom whispers to me in passing, «horrible service.»
I turned and said, «really?»
She nods and replies, «The food was great, that’s about it.»
So we walk in and I’m thinking awesome, we must have the JV serving squad in house today… gonna be a 3 hour lunch for 2.
Sat down, looked at the menu and placed our order.
A delightful waitress took care of us.
She was on top of it.
Brought out a salad and my side of meatballs in a timely fashion.
Not long after my dank Sicilian slice and the wife’s slice of white pizza came out piping hot.
She apologized about the delay as they actually had to make a brand new Sicilian pie to accommodate my order.
Think nothing of it, made to order Sicilian? What’s to apologize for?!?
Fork and knifed the slice, it was hot and the cheese was gooey. I employed the strategy of enjoying one of the two delicious meatballs whilst waiting for the entrees to come out. The other I sliced up and threw on top of my pizza as an extra topping. This all played out in my head as well as it did in real life.
Was able to snag a bite of the wife’s white pizza slice.
Gangbusters.
Our waitress checked on us periodically. The whole meal was relaxed but well paced.
It is my conclusion that the mother and son must’ve either:
A. Been a coupla dicks and deserved that slo-​motion action or
B. Ordered something crazy intense that took a while to prepare and they just were impatient.
I don’t know what else to say, Café Positano is batting 1.000 for me… the only knock I’d give this place is their whacked out coupon in my Entertainment Book.
More often than not you find something like a BOGO deal or a certain percentage off the total bill in there.
Café P’s?
Buy 3 meals get one free.
I guess I’ll just hafta order 2 meals for myself the next time I go!
Well played Café Positano… well played.

Greatest pizza I’ve ever had so far in life.
Cant even describe how much I will miss this place when I go back to Texas. It is just not the same as normal pizza’s, yet this is exactly how it’s meant to be made.
Calzone, no way to describe it, savor the moment of that first bite.
I bow at the feet of the Italians. The atmosphere is just as good if not better than the amazing foods.
Amazing!!!
