★★★★★ 5.0 Robert Hall · Jan 2026

Villa Tromco was absolutely wonderful date night dinner spot. We got there early and were seated immediately. They had a great selection of drinks and food. Ordered a couple appetizers and drinks. For the main course my wife ordered the meatballs and I ordered the pork ribeye special both were plenty of food for the both of us. Is definitely our new favorite Italian restaurant. Staff were really nice and everyone was attentive not just the server. Kept checking in on us and making sure we were satisfied. Also I would be doing a disservice if I didn't mention that the amaretto bread pudding is a must have if you get dessert.

Went here for Valentine's and we really loved the place. What's family owned and is the oldest restaurant in South carolina. They introduced Pizza to Columbia. The excellent service in the delicious sauces were my favorites.

Dec 2025. Had 2 work functions here in 2025. Following our Christmas dinner we were honored to be invited to the Table Tennis room. We had a great time over all!

This place blew me out the park. I enjoyed the food so much and it reminded me of growing up in NY and eating at our favorite Italian restaurant. Food was amazing . Great prices , great service and everything was tasty . Authentic Italian food , which can be hard to find these days.

★★★★★ 5.0 Keller Williams Oconee The Land Beside the Water · Jan 2026

We hosted a legislative dinner for our local delegation, a party of 12. Upon arrival our table was ready and we were seated promptly. Service was excellent, very smooth and very attentive, especially with such a large party. The food was absolutely delicious! Everything was made fresh and in-house. One of the best Italy restaurants I’ve visited. If you’re in Columbia, looking for Italian with great food and service, you’ll want to make Villa Tronco a destination. Enjoy!
