A Luxurious and Mouthwatering Northern Italian Menu
Situated in the lively yet refined section of Scottsdale known as Old Town, Veneto Trattoria is perhaps the ultimate restaurant to visit if you want a taste of authentic Northern Italian cuisine within our sunny Arizonan desert.

Drawing patrons in with its relaxing yet sophisticated atmosphere, Veneto Trattoria’s old world ambiance sets the stage for the vibrancy of its menu. Enjoy patio dining all year-round, though reservations are recommended.

House-made pastas like the lasagna, taliatelle, and fettuccine shine on this standout menu, prepared with everything from prosciutto to duck ragout and calamari, each putting a decadent twist on classic Italian dishes.
Italian rarities that you’re unlikely to find elsewhere, such as the restaurant’s signature dish of calf liver with grilled polenta or a Cioppino fish stew that samples from the best of the Mediterranean.
Top off your meal with one of the indulgent desserts that are made in-house, from tiramisu al cioccolato and cioccolato valentine to tortino di mele, affogato, or homemade almond biscotti served with the Tuscan dessert wine Vin Santo. Veneto’s answer to crème brulée, crema cotta, and its rich semifreddo al pistachio, are also noteworthy.
