A four-course prix fixe Italian dinner for two at Trocadero that includes one shared starter, appetizer, an entree for each person and a dessert for each person.
Everyone knows that the best Italian food is made by nonnas and nonnos that are at least 70 years old. It’s just the way it is. Is it love that makes it better? Years of experience in a boisterous kitchen? Whatever the secret, Trocadero knows it and you can experience it for yourself with today’s WagJag: $49 for a 4-course Italian dinner for two people (a $100 value).
Just like Nonna, Trocadero has been around a long time. Having celebrated their 70th anniversary this past June, they have certainly taught Hamilton a thing or two about Italian cuisine, starting with an introduction to pizza. Even into their 70th year, Trocadero strives to maintain the culinary traditions first introduced in 1944. With homemade dishes and fresh ingredients, all prepared with meticulous skill, it’s easy to believe you’re enjoying Nonna’s cooking.

Reviews
"We love this place! Such a great little family run business! Very retro atmosphere, from gold-swirled mirrors, black lavastone facade, great Italian standards and sweet, charming owners. The people here really care about the clientele. They make sure you have everything you want, made fresh to order. Great food, great service and utterly charming. If you want a quiet date at a sweet little Italian place, this is where to go!"—Restaurantica
"Utterly fascinating old restaurant. A trip back in time. A good trip. Very friendly and attentive staff. Good, old-fashioned Italian fare. The lasagna was very nice. The Caesar salad was really excellent. I love the old time flavour of the food and the place. Worth visiting just to see the place. We'll be back."—Restaurantica
