4.5/10The steak fillet was so chewy that it made me think of Mr. Bean. I put every pite out of my mouth into a napkin. I paid for the fillet and I didn't eat it my main course that day.

6.5/10We went to Max on recommendation. My seafood stew was hands down one of the best seafood meals I have ever had. Inside was pretty but not much character compared to the outdoor seating at other places overlooking the bay and Marina Area. ONE REALLY BIG Turn Off. I ordered a Tanqueray Gin and Tonic, and wife ordered a Limoncello Martini. Folks - each drink was 25 Euros / each. That is ridiculous and really kept us from going back an additional night while in town. We do not mind paying for good food (food was excellent) and but drink prices really kind of spoiled the experience. When we ordered - had no idea that they costed that much. Felt like we got taken advantage of. Same Gin drink at other really nice places at Positano were 10-12 Euros.

8.5/10Beautiful restaurant in the heart of Positano with a beautiful indoor dining room that spilled onto a lovely garden dining area. Enjoyed every course including seafood salad, lasagna, lambchops and veal Milanese. Service on point.

3.5/10Food was simply not good and it was challenging to get our waiter's attention whenever we needed something.

9/10Very good quality dinner! Service a bit slow, especially the youngsters need to learn. The senior waiters know very well the tricks of the trade. The tuna steak was perfeto! Deserts excellent, ambience very nice! A well run venue. And yes, this is not a budget location. Had a good evening! Grazie!

6/10Beautiful restaurant with good food but some of the most arrogant and inhospitable service I’ve ever experienced. I would never return because of the rude, disrespectful, ungracious, unprofessional staff.

10/10The outdoor seating under the stars was exceptional as was the service, food, and wine. The sammelier was very knowledgeable and enjoyable to speak with.

4/10The lobster in the pasta was about the size of 2 US quarters and when we inquired they said...Eh...this is how lobster is...uh, not correct. Good service overall and great atmosphere but avoid the pasta with Lobster.

10/10Absolutely the best fish dishes we ever experienced. Local fresh caught fish with wine, capers, and olives (and I don’t like olives) was the most amazing flavor and tender texture. My wife’s sea bass was also excellent. Complimented with good wine and very lovely environment. Attentive service. This was our last meal in Positano. If we had started at Max, we would have had 4 meals here. 😊

5/10Food was good but not seasoned and some dishes had no sauce of any kind even when they really needed it...

10/10Must stop in Positano. Every bite of the food was amazing. I wanted to just order a second entree even though I was full because it was just that good

10/10Great service and amazing meals. We ate here twice on our trip because it was so good. We sat outside the first night on the patio and inside the beautiful dining room the second meal. Both were wonderful.

10/10PERFECT PERFECT PERFECT MEAL . Amazing food and service. This place deserves more attention . The best food in the Amalfi coast that we had and is up to par with the best we had during our two week trip in Italy. The pork shank is mesmerizing. The sea bass was cooked to perfection. Amazing hospitality. You must try this place!

9.5/10Wonderful restaurant, staff incredibly helpful and attentive. Lovely setting in the garden. Could do with a bit more of the background music that’s inside also outside but only slight negative

8.5/10Had a lovely dinner at Max. Staff was attentive and helpful to non- Italian speakers. Food was very tasty. My husband and myself both loved the grilled squid appetizer and then his seared tuna was delicious. My fish was also very good, but just not my favorite meal! The patio was lovely and even a small sprinkle didn’t diminish the lovely evening. Would recommend!

10/10Setting is beautiful, in the back garden. What it lacks in a seaside view it makes up for as an oasis escape from the crowds. Service was attentive, they suggested my now-favorite Amarone 2012, and each dish was amazing. Eggplant parmigiana was perfect and the seafood risotto was one of the best I’ve had. My favorite meal in all of Positano.

4/10I was recommended by a local, but I was disappointed in the dish I ordered, Prawns And pasta. The prawns appeared large, but by the time I opened them, there was scraps inside the pasta was just OK, no garlic and had hardly any flavor. I enjoyed getting wine, cheese,crackers and berries at the market.
