Ciro Capuano opened the restaurant in July, 2007, and has found much success. Capuano, who also owns another Plainsboro business, Romeo’s, which is a typical pizzeria and family restaurant, says he wanted to do something more upscale with Positano’s.
Entrees include Filet Mignon Saporito, Risotto Pescatore — hard boiled rice with shrimp, baby clams, calamari, and mussels in a white wine sauce — and NY Strip Steak. The restaurant also makes its own sauces. The restaurant also has a large outdoor patio, which can seat up to 100 people.
“We’re been in this town for a long time,” says Capuano, who, along with his brother, Massimo Capuano, co-owner, is originally from Naples, Italy. “We want to be here.”
