WARM, COMFORTING AND INVITING

“Chef David Digregorio doesn’t limit his joyous Italian dinner parties […] only to Sundays. He’ll overindulge you, nonna-style, with an appetizer, two pastas, an entrée and side any night.”
Peter Gianapulos, Front Desk

“Local ingredients take center stage…”
Julia Kramer, Time Out Chicago

“I almost never turn down an invitation for dinner at Osteria Via Stato because that means yet another chance to chow down on their amazing Mini Veal Meatballs.”
Audarshia Townsend, 312 Dining Diva

“Osteria cooks the way I like to eat…”
- Phil Vettel, Chicago Tribune

“The food has been pushed to a level of goodness that
puts Osteria Via Stato right up there…”
- Pat Bruno, Chicago Sun-Times

“Pizzeria Via Stato is not your average pie-tossing joint. Its delicious, hand-crafted pizzas stand head and cheese above the rest. The pies we enjoyed at Pizzeria Via Stato met our high standards and provided a great, relaxing lunch. Paired with one of the wines from the astonishingly long lit, this is a meal worth sitting, savoring, and sharing with a good friend.”
John DiGilio, Chicagoist.com

2006 “Best Italian” & 2007 “Best Tastes”
– Time Out Chicago

“This simplified, no-fuss place offers […] football-shaped pies that are Roman-style, with a crackery bite and bright, super sweet-sauce that makes them easy to scarf down”
Chris LaMorte, Metromix.com

“Vibrant Italian restaurant Osteria Via Stato struck gold by portioning off their front bar area for a pizzeria.”
CS

“The décor at Via Stato is a bistro lover’s dream […] but it’s the menu that you really want to pay attention to.”
Jessica of Cheeky Eats
