Published

on

TAPPAN, NY – La Fontanella restaurant is located in Tappan, NY and has been run by Sal and Cathy for the last twenty three years. They released the following on Facebook:

“To our family, friends and loyal patrons. It is with bittersweet emotions that we announce the retirement of Sal and Cathy as chef/owners of La Fontanella restaurant. This decision does not come lightly, but we are thankful to have had the pleasure and honor of serving our community for 23+ years. Your support has been unwavering and we hope that you have enjoyed your dinners, milestones, and events with us. We hope you will continue to visit the restaurant, as our doors will remain open under the new management and ownership of our current staff. Sal and Cathy will be alongside Veronica and her husband Edwin through the end of February/beginning of March to ensure a smooth transition as they take over as new owners. Our existing staff will remain in front of house as well as back, with Kimberly moving to head chef. We’re confident that this process will be seamless given the extensive training that Sal and Cathy have provided over the years.

Gift certificates will continue to be honored, and any existing parties/reservations will remain.

You will continue to see our faces as we plan to visit the restaurant frequently for lunch and dinner with our family.

Thank you all for your dedication to our family business, your support means the world to us!”
