About this restaurant

Good for special occasions
Great for outdoor dining
Charming

Chef Gio Osso’s intimate gathering spot is tucked inside Old Town Scottsdale’s Bespoke Inn, where his menu features contemporary cuisine inspired by his Mediterranean roots and global influences. Simply dubbed "honest craft," Chef Gio's menu changes weekly, and is comprised of reliable and satisfying mainstays like homemade pastas, hearty meat dishes and superb seafood. Join us for dinner on evenings from Tuesday to Saturday inside our intimate dining room or enjoy a delightful Arizona evening on our beautifully lit patio.

We look forward to serving you! Cancellations made within 24 hours of reservation will result in a fee of $50 per guest, thank you.

Why they're an Icon

Executive chef: Gio Osso

From the OpenTable editors: One of the Phoenix New Times's top 100 restaurants, this is the place to go for chef Gio Osso's regional Italian cooking. The menu changes frequently, but you'll find nods to his Mediterranean heritage in dishes like crispy-skin branzino with caper-infused brown butter. It's best enjoyed in the rustic, tree-covered outdoor dining area with a glass from the impressive Italian wine selection.

Virtu is one of our faves… if not the fave. Two pasta choices are always delicious, and of course the pulpo (octopus) is amazing. It’s hard to choose from the crudo options as they are all unique and tasty. And man are the entrees fantastic!

Virtù Honest Craft is easily at the top of my list for the best restaurant I’ve been to. The food in service were both incredible. When I arrived, I asked to sit at the bar since I was by myself. I ordered an old-fashioned and the Pre Fixe menu. Here’s what I received: Amuse bouche - asparagus panna cotta Appetizer - Asparagi Intermezzo - Lemon sorbet Entree - Black Bass Dessert - pistachio affogato Everything was delicious but I think the Asparagi was my favorite. I have to find a way to get back there before I leave town so I can have it again. The service was also top notch. The bartender, Elizabeth, was very friendly, knowledgeable about the menu and wine selection, and made a great old fashioned. She also helped me select the perfect wine to pair with my entree. I can’t say enough great things about this restaurant. So if you’re deciding where to go for dinner, stop looking and go to Virtù Honest Craft.

We have been coming here for years and have turned on many colleagues and friends to Virtu. Today 5/11/25 the food was still fabulous but the host and hostess were incredibly rude, unkind and had zero compassion (dismissive, eye rolls, terrible) when we asked for some shade when placed in a table in direct blinding sunlight. However, our fantastic server Nicholas (without anyone telling him to do it) was very kind and understanding and brought us an umbrella. Nicholas should be the host…or at least teach the host and hostess hospitality.
