Katie's new location at Ballpark Village boasts a window that offers grab-and-go food–including individual-sized pizzas–that can be brought into Busch Stadium.
The following list is accurate as of an early-June press date.

One the most noteworthy closings of the past month was that of Bait in the Central West End. This summer, however, the founding manager and chef, Misha Sampson and Ceaira Jackson (better known as Misha K and Chef Jack), plan to open Nexus Cultural Cuisine & Craft Cocktails in Midtown. The past month's list of 20 openings included Katie and Ted Collier's third restaurant, Katie’s Pizza & Pasta Osteria, at Ballpark Village; The Main House, in the former Tompkins Riverside space on historic Main Street in St. Charles; and the long-awaited reopening of Dressel’s Pub, which has added a brewhouse, the soon-to-be home of the Rock & Horse line of beers.
Additions and updates appear in full boldface.
