"Within a few minutes of sitting, the killer antipasti dishes start crawling out of the kitchen. By the time I had barely tasted a spoonful of soup, a small crowd had swarmed my table, with waiters delivering the next tiny dish of mixed olives and plates o..."
"Osteria Via Stato (meaning on State Street) does a many-course feast for $39. You choose your entree, but everybody gets served one dish after another as they serve it family style in Italy, hot from the kitchen...."
"Osteria Via Stato offers a three-course prix fixe menu with optional wine pairings, so we headed over to enjoy the "Italian dinner party" on the patio. The complementary bottled water and second helpings did a lot for our appetites, but was it worth the m..."
""Just Bring me wine" is a service where the wine guy pours a different wine to go with each course, and he explains why. The wine is offered at different price points, but the cheap-o's $15 per person wine service offered three glasses of good wine at a g..."

"We do an Italian-style progression, meaning portions get smaller as you go. You begin with a hefty assortment of antipasti, move onto a moderate-size pasta or risotto, and finish with a light fish, meat, or vegetarian dish...."
"It's no-brainer Italian here, where the schtick is to feed you without asking too many questions. 95 prix fixe, and waiters do the rest, working the room with several rounds of communal platters of antipasti, then pasta, followed by your entrée, an..."
"Then you'll enjoy Osteria Via Stato's twist on traditional Italian dining. A set price of $36 buys you a full, European-style meal: a range of antipasto plates (which could be anything from smoked salmon to salami to warm focaccia), then two pasta dishes..."
"The kids' dinner included lovely tempura asparagus with a bright lemon aoli followed by either rigatoni and meat balls, or delicate cheese ravioli in a butter sauce...."
"If you're one for Italian food, this place will definitely lure you away from the world. The hospitality of the staff will put you at ease - if not, you can always look to the wines to do that!..."
