Osteria Via Stato

620 N. State St.
Chicago, IL 60610
312-642-8450
The restaurant offers a three-course prix fixe menu served in Italian-style progression. The menu begins with antipasti, moves to pasta or risotto, and finishes with your choice of meat, fish and vegetarian entrees. Dessert and cheese courses are priced separately. About 40 wines are served by the quartino (about a third of a bottle), or by the mezzeliter (about two-thirds of a bottle) instead of a traditional glass pour. There is also a tasting program dubbed "just bring me wine" with a trio of flight choices at three different price points. A two-course menu is offered at lunch (antipasti and main course). A small bar area in front serves as a comforable pizzeria (Pizzeria Via Stato), featuring crispy Roman-style pies.
