Food is delicious. The best octopus anywhere! The food is pricey but worth it. Though beware, the dishes are on the salty side.

Incredible dinner! We were staying at the adjacent Inn (Bespoke), and the gal there mentioned that Virtú was one of the best meals she'd ever had. We were lucky enough to get a reservation the following night, and what a wonderful surprise of an evening! The asparagus dish was over the top. Complex flavors and textures .... Just perfect and very memorable. We also love octopus and had to try. Very good - served room temperature with chickpeas and an aioli sauce with a kick. The octopus was also served with an arugula and shaved fennel salad tossed in a light dressing .... It was so good and paired well with the spiciness of the octopus. We followed the an order of their smoked duck. Might have been the best duck I've ever had. Excellent dish! The restaurant boasts of 160+ Amaros and digestivos from the bar. We were too full to try that evening, but returned the next evening to sit at the bar to sample some of their collection. The restaurant was accommodating a large group that evening so there was no seating at the bar, but they graciously let us be seated at a small table and guided us through an Amaro tasting experience! The bartender was exceptionally knowledgeable - even though it was a very busy night for them, she took the time to talk with us about our tasting. Was a very fun night!! We will definitely be back! Much thanks to the restaurant and staff

So we we made a reservation outside at 5 pm on the patio. Upon arrival the patio had one table. We ordered drinks and when it was time to order food we were told to order EVERYTHING at once. We knew our starters and like to take our time but apparently that is not the vibe even when the restaurants empty! Not ok, too many “no's” listen to your customers! Not sure I'm going back anytime soon after dinning here many times!

This is our favorite place to dine when we are in Scottsdale. We were visiting for our anniversary and once again the whole experience at Virtú was amazing. Our server Nick was welcoming and knowledgeable and the food was excellent! We chose to do the Prix Fix menu and we were not disappointed. We look forward to celebrating many anniversaries here in the future.

A little off the beaten path, in a very good way, this place is super well rounded. Great food, wine, service, and ambience, we love it!

We had an AMAzing meal at virtu. The food was exceptional. The pork chop was perfect and the short rib pasta was a hit. As always the octopus was spot on!! Our server was attentive and gave us just the right amount of attention. The courtyard is always such a pretty setting!

Food was amazing overall! I recommend the 5 course option so you have a variety of dishes to try. The overall ambience was excellent as well.

I rank Virtu as the best and most unique dining experience in town. They never fail to impress. Even the palate cleanser was impressive. An ever-changing menu makes it an adventure every visit. The staff are attentive without hovering and are clearly having fun backstage. Wonderful dining experience.

I had dinner last night with my wife and friends. The ambiance, food and wine were amazing. Every dish was prepared to perfection and the wine pairings were spot on. This hidden gem is one of the best restaurants in Arizona. I can't recommend Virtu Honest Craft enough.

Scallops and kale salad were amazing. Service was friendly and professional. Love this place.

Our dinner at Virtù Honest Craft started with a small mix-up — the wrong dish was brought out on my wife’s birthday. The staff immediately owned it, apologized sincerely, and went above and beyond by comping both plates.
The restaurant itself is beautiful, with a cozy, romantic atmosphere that feels special the moment you walk in. We ordered the crudo, asparagi, anatra, and manzo — every dish was incredible, full of layered flavors and beautifully presented.
Despite the initial hiccup, we left impressed and grateful for the way they turned things around.
It was an overall good experience for our wedding anniversary. My husband loved the branzino. My steak was perfectly cooked. The service was excellent. We sat in the patio.
