Villa Tronco, a beloved family-owned restaurant in Columbia, South Carolina, has thrived for over 80 years by serving inventive Italian dishes while embracing its rich heritage.
Founded in 1918, Villa Tronco transitioned from fruit-selling to Italian cuisine during WWII, introducing pizza to the locals who had never encountered it before.
Today, Villa Tronco is not just a restaurant but a cultural landmark, featuring live music, family recipes, and a devoted, multi-generational staff.
