Visual Studio For Mac
The Visual Studio Community 2013 image enables you to unleash the full power of Visual Studio to develop cross-platform solutions.

This video shows how you can run Microsoft Visual Studio and Microsoft SQL Server on a Mac OSX machine using Virtualization Technology such as Parallels for Desktop. Can you actually build for OSX from Visual Studio 2012? Just downloaded the trial. Only iOS and Android come up as install options. Even Project Templates in Visual Studio 2012 only show Android and iOS as types available. AFAIK, Visual Studio isn't and never has been available to run on OS X, so you'd have to either run it under Boot Camp or a VM app, such as Parallels Desktop (I'm a Parallels user, so that's what I usually reommend).

Although you will get more info from Windows/Mac developers on StackOverflow, I can tell you that depending upon the project and its dependencies, you might get away with it or you may not. Of course nothing Windows related can be run on OSX, so if you're only doing a 'hello world', chances are you will be able to run it, provided you have the right toolchain to build that (gcc++, etc.)
Regarding whether there's a 'Visual Studio Compatible IDE' the answer is 'no' (unless you consider MonoDevelop which works 'ok' for some things).
The solution, of course, is to use one of the virtualization alternatives (Parallels, VMWare) or simply have a windows partition via Bootcamp.
