Positano's Pizza

“Positano's Pizza is not just a restaurant; it's a warm embrace from the moment you step inside.”

Positano's Pizza is not just a restaurant; it's a warm embrace from the moment you step inside. Tucked away like a well-kept secret, this mom and pop establishment holds a special place in the hearts of locals, and for good reason. For the past decade, I've been a regular visitor to Positano's, and I've savored every single item on their menu. Each dish is not just a meal; it's a journey of flavors and memories waiting to be made. Let's talk about the pizza first. Oh, the pizza! Whether you're a fan of thin crust or deep dish, Positano's has got you covered. Their sauce is a symphony of flavors that dance on your palate with each bite. And don't get me started on the toppings - fresh, abundant, and bursting with goodness. With every slice, you embark on a culinary adventure that leaves you craving more. But if there's one item that keeps me coming back time and time again, it's their grill burger. Picture this: a perfectly grilled patty that's so rich and juicy it practically melts in your mouth. Every bite takes me on a journey, from the tantalizing aroma of the grill to the explosion of flavors that accompany each savory mouthful. It's not just a burger; it's a passage to flavor town that I never want to leave. Positano's isn't just a place to grab a bite; it's a gathering spot for friends and family to come together and share moments of joy. It's a place where memories are made and laughter fills the air. And mark my words, once you've tasted the magic of Positano's, you'll find yourself coming back year after year. In a world where fast food chains dominate the landscape, Positano's Pizza is a shining beacon of authenticity and warmth. It's more than just a restaurant; it's home. Each item on their menu is its own journey, waiting to be discovered and enjoyed.

“The food was decent.”

The food was decent. Made to order pasta. The pasta was good, the pizza by the slice was obviously pretty old. Large portions of pasta and big pizza slices. Drinks were cheap. I overheard them helping out another customer who was in need as well, which was very beautiful. A few very small tables inside, mostly carry out orders. The delivery driver was really friendly.

“Their thin crust is like a regular crust at most places.”

Their thin crust is like a regular crust at most places. The pizza was fine. Nothing special. Their sauce isn't anything special. Ingredients tasted fresh but the sausage portion was lacking as you can see in the picture. It's like 1 chuck of sausage per slice. . Their calamari and breaded mushrooms are probably the only things I will frequent the place for because those are actually better than most places. I recommend if you never ordered from here before don't go for a huge pizza . Try a small size and see if you like it first because like I said before it's not anything special it's just an overall OK pizza compared to the other establishments in the area.

“Ordered the meat lovers pizza, French fries and a veggie basket.”

Ordered the meat lovers pizza, French fries and a veggie basket. The pizza was disgustingly salty, and the veggie basket had MULTIPLE human hairs in it. One hair strand was literally poking out of a deep fried mushroom🤮😤 They also dropped our pizza, so the toppings were stuck to the cardboard box. Ironic, considering the employee who dropped our food off was begging for a bigger tip. (I guess a ten dollar tip to drive four blocks isn’t enough) Kinda sucks that we spent $83.73 on your food and it was complete garbage. Not to mention the tacky delivery driver. I will never order food from this establishment ever again, and I suggest that you don’t order anything from here as well 💩

Honestly. I’ve heard nothing but good things. I get in the neighborhood to try a slice. I usually get that to try the sauce, at any place. I get there and get the dryest doughy pizza. With no flavor in the sauce unless it dried up because I had to be served the nastiest slice there. Idk if I can finish it but hate wasting $. I def and unfortunately won’t be back. The girl in the front needs better service manners as well.

“Was told 30 min, then told another 15 min, then two more minute.”

Was told 30 min, then told another 15 min, then two more minute. Only to open it and be sorely disappointed- and we were starving by then so no choice but to eat it. But last time we order from there. Couldn’t even grab a slice without everything falling off that one and the others around it. How does the middle of the pizza also have no cheese in places. Everyone was mad at me cuz I was the one who picked this place cuz it was always so delicious.

I love their pizza, but a bit pricey for me, so I go every other time. I love their fries. I do reccomend their pizza.

“Positano's has such great tasty food!”

Positano's has such great tasty food!! I always cater from them. I especially love their chicken with roasted potatoes and Italian beef is so delicious!! Tony and the rest of the staff are so dedicated in making their business stand out from any other pizzerias by offering the best service in the south side of Chicago. I highly recommend Positano's!! You won't be disappointed!

“I retract my previous review of 3 stars.”

I retract my previous review of 3 stars. The new owners really have improved on the pizza, A Lot, and now would give a 4.5 out of 5.
