Welcome to La Vista Ristorante Italiano! We are a family owned and run restaurant which we transformed into a warm and inviting experience for the soul and palate. Chef Remy’s family recipes are made fresh daily, tempting your palate with homemade pasta, cheeses and desserts. Expertly executed European service delivers table side preparation of many dishes, for your dining pleasure.
The comfortable dining room boasts fine Brazilian cherry wood floors, exquisitely designed chandeliers, a stone fireplace, and French doors that let in the fresh air and access to patio dining during warmer weather. Our bar and lounge area boasts comfortable seating in a relaxed atmosphere. Our rear entrance hosts an ADA compliant ramp.
Our catering is second to none. Let us cater your event in our facility or yours. Our restaurant can cater an event of up to 200 people, or for smaller parties we can offer our VIP room that can seat up to 60 people. Weather permitting you can take advantage of our glorious patio for cocktails or just to let in the fresh air. Every event is as special to us as it is to you. We will work with you to custom design a menu that is sure to please every guest on your list.
Remy Hoti
Owner & Head Chef
Remy Hoti purchased this location in 2015 after falling in love with South Salem. His 30 years of working-in and owning restaurants on Long Island, Manhattan and Port Chester, bestowed on him a vision of opening a spot in a rural setting, where he would share his family recipes complimented by home-and locally-grown herbs and vegetables. In the summer, the property is full of gardens that produce a delightful bounty of fresh ingredients from which Chef Remy creates his palate tempting dishes. While he is the visionary and head Chef of the restaurant, you can often find him roaming the dining room, checking in with customers, learning what they like and making sure of their utmost satisfaction.
Kosovar Hoti
General Manager
Kosovar Hoti, Chef Remy’s son, is a tenacious and key figure in all the workings of La Vista Ristorante. His priority is customer experience and spends most of his time in the front of the house ensuring that the dining room and lounge are comfortable and sufficiently stocked for service. Learning from his father, Kos is proud of his family’s establishment and ready to accommodate the needs of its customers so the dining experience at La Vista is one to remember!
