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.

Sat at the bar because it was raining so could not be outside as planned. Jerry. The bartender was great-both with cocktails and menu chalices. He made it a fun evening.

Really enjoyed our dinner. We did the pre fixe, which allows you to pick 3 items from the menu and is supplemented by 2 small courses. Our waiter was very helpful and attentive. We sat outside, which was the perfect last night in town before heading back to the Midwest. I look forward to going back.

We were celebrating a birthday and the venue itself is a great place to do that. Intimate atmosphere on the patio with heaters. Our server was attentive and very friendly. We shared a number of dishes and all of them were excellent.
