    Chargrilled shrimp served on sautéed zucchini and carrots, accompanied by creamy herb-infused risotto topped with fresh greens.

    Great atmosphere and very friendly service. The food is always guaranteed to be great. My favourite restaurant in Guildford, by far!

    Very good food and service, what would have made the meal more enjoyable would have been the availability of a high chair, but that didn’t affect review

    As always, Positanos never disappoints. My partner and I had an incredibly romantic meal for our anniversary. The wine and food recommendations from the staff were brilliant. All the staff are incredibly welcoming and very knowledgable of the menu. Will come again for the next special occasion.

    We have been a few times now at Positano and never had a bad meal. The service is efficient and fast and the staff is very friendly. Even though it’s fully booked most of the time we never felt rushed. It’s a lovely relaxing atmosphere. They offer a nice and very reasonable 2 course lunch menu which we had a couple of times, but we also tried the a la carte menu and the daily specials. Also the choices of wines are great.

    Beautiful food so so tasty and excellent staff. Every person working at this establishment has been taught to perfection, customer service was first class in every way .We enjoyed our wedding anniversary immensely and will most certainly be back BEFORE our next one. Thank you for a memorable anniversary we will definitely be back.

    Lovely welcome and superb service. Positano is a firm favourite for us - one of the few restaurants that still offers proper service from the moment you arrive to the moment you leave. Food choice is excellent - we often opt for the specials for something a bit different. Reasonably priced excellent food.
