Virtue Restaurant & Bar is chef Erick Williams's acclaimed Southern restaurant in Chicago's historic Hyde Park neighborhood, opened in November 2018 as his first solo concept. Williams was named James Beard Foundation Best Chef: Great Lakes in 2022, becoming the first Black chef to win in that category, and Virtue is listed in the MICHELIN Guide. The kitchen centers thoughtful, hospitality-driven Southern cooking, and the bar carries a dedicated "zero-proof" section for non-drinkers. Current spirit-free offerings are house-made rather than bottled brands: the Sorrel Fizz (hibiscus, rosemary, vanilla, sparkling water), The Hummingbird (basil, lemon, soda), and the Coconut Woman (coconut cream, pineapple, lime). It's a smaller but real NA list at a full-service Southern restaurant, well suited to those who want a considered alcohol-free option alongside a notable dinner.
