Positano and Sorrento Restaurant Recommendations

We would love some restaurant suggestions while we visit the Amalfi Coast for a week.

I've read about these restaurants: Rada Restaurant, Restaurant: Chez Black and Restaurant: Da Adolfo

Any feedback about these restaurants AND recommendations in general would be great!

Thanks

Sorrento:
Bagni di Delfino, down at Marina Grande, on the water, excellent seafood.
Pizzeria Tasso( a nice restaurant not what you’d think of with Pizzeria in it’s name)

Worst meal we had in that region was at Chez Black. Doesn't mean the place is always bad but it was definitely not good when we were there: watery, over-cooked pasta and less-than-enthusiastic (and that's putting it mildly) waitstaff.

Good meal: Il Leone Rosso Ristorante Pizzeria: Via Marziale 25, 80067, Sorrento, Italy.

Positano: La Taverna Leone. The owner will pick you up in his van and return you to a prearranged spot. Good seafood and pasta
dishes. Very good dessert.
Mela. An upscale restaurant just off Via Cristoforo Colombo on the high end.

I did not enjoy the experience at Chez Black. Interestingly, a friend recommended the place and spoke very highly of the restaurant to me.

Absolutely Delfinos on Marina Grande!! It is also recommended in Rick's guidebook. Show them the book for a free limoncello!!

We had several good dinners in Sorrento. Our favorites were: O'Puledrone, at the Marina Grande. We had wonderful grilled fish - very fresh. It's run by a fishermen's co-op. We also enjoyed Taverna dell'800, Via Accademia 29. Delicious homemade pastas, and very inexpensive. We also noted Ristorante Gigino at Archi 15. I think the sign said something like Ristorante Pizzariachi (?) Gigino, I can't quite make out my notes. Must have had too much wine! Good bread and salads.

I don't think we had a bad meal in Sorrento, but the ones I noted here were the ones we enjoyed the most.
