7.5/10Food was really good but they served everything together : bread, entree and salad. Never saw waiter again. We wanted coffee and dessert but he never came back. Ended up leaving. Didn’t know how to pay, never received check, ended up seeing another couple go to register and followed them.

6.5/10Nice feel and ambience but food only average for the price. Salad over dressed and serving bread (which was not the freshest, clearly cut early that morning) in a paper bag really cheapened the experience.

3/10The restaurant staff does not appear to be happy to have guests coming in around 9:40pm. They forgot orders and then blame the guests for not stating clearly, even though the staff repeated our order correctly at the end of our ordering session.

10/10This restaurant was recommended by our local tour guide. Overlooking the ocean, the ambience and food was fantastic! I had the fresh fish in a lemon sauce that had thinly sliced crispy potatoes on top- so delicious. My husband had the sesame tuna that was equally good. I felt the prices were reasonable especially for the quality of the food. Would highly recommend this restaurant for seafood!

5.5/10Pasta to be served Al dente but all of us at table with pasta was disappointed because it was way undercooked. Middle was still raw pasta.

2.5/10Lo scriverei più volentieri in italiano però sarà meglio farlo in inglese. So we asked for a table for 3 person more then a day before the occasion because we were celebrating the anniversary of our wedding. Well, we were accommodated in the middle of the restaurant (può capitare, era venerdì), but! The antipasti was covered with low quality balsamico; wine was very decent especially for the price; il pacchero era abbastanza buono; spaghetti alla nerano erano dal supermercato all’estero con la cottura adeguata (tranne sugo abbastanza decente) and the pasta for my daughter (so called pasta Alfredo for kids) was not edible at all. The dessert was so so sweet that nevertheless I’m so attentive to not waste the food we wasn’t able to finish it. Very disappointed indeed

10/10Booked a table for 7:30pm, but was able to get in a bit earlier before the rush (had an event that started at 7:30). Lovely and accommodating service. Was able to have a corner table overlooking the spiagga. The fruti di mare pasta was amazing (muscles and clams). Would go back for that and the ambiance.

4.5/10Service was okay, placed on the boulevard and overlooking the beach would expect better food. Ordered some simple spaghetti carbonara but way to salty. Could not finished the plate. Really disappointed

10/10The food and service were very good. They had a very good selection of seafood. A very nice wine list. The calamari fritti was one of the best I have had. A tremendous view of the beach and sea. Fantastico!

4.5/10They charged us for more expensive pastas than we had ordered. Seems to happen more often looking at the reviews. The waiters were arrogant. Food was mediocre. Prices were high. View is nice.

4/10Terrible service. I won’t go back again. Too bad. I was one of my fav before Covid. Prices really inflated. Do not order mussels. You will wait forever to pay.

5/10Service was horrible. Totally unresponsive and downright rude. Not just our waiter but all of them. Food was ok. So disappointing because every other restaurant we have been to in Positano was lovely.

7.5/10We went for lunch today and it was good food, just a bit slow, but not a problem in the grand scheme of things in this beautiful town!

6/10We had very high expectations as La combusa came so highly recommended by friends in the US. I had the mixed seafood grill and only the tiny lobster was great. The swordfish and other fish simply didn’t impress me and were way under seasoned. My husband had the pasta with shrimp, clams and a couple other fish and that was the better entree. I was told to reserve way in advance but we were there 8-10 pm and never more than 1/3 of the tables were full. The free appetizer (fried ball of veggies, cheese and breading) was the best part of the meal.

3/10The attitude of staff was so rude we left before eating. This used to be a great restaurant but has obviously changed hands. Staff seem totally uninterested in the customers.
