Vita - Basking Ridge Hotel

Dolce Basking Ridge is home to the chic, neo-American style Vita Restaurant and Bar. Executive Chef Paul combines seasonal local ingredients, a fresh, neo-American style, warm ambience and superior service making Vita the ideal place to enjoy a meal. Vita meaning "life" in Latin, celebrates the tastes, textures, sights and sounds that comprise a great meal.When Vita's Executive Chef Paul Bogardus and Director Kevin Knauss reviewed the local foods they saw an opportunity: the bounty of the Garden State along with access to foods from around the world were begging to be celebrated. They answered the call by renewing Vita, a New York City type restaurant in quality and style featuring the bounty of New Jersey's local, seasonal produce with neo-American preparation. From the warm welcome when you walk through our doors to the crunch of a fresh baguette to the perfectly paired wine with an exceptionally cooked meal, Vita offers the complete experience.
