Let me introduce myself. I am Chef Dany. After receiving my degree in Rome, Italy I worked in the best restaurants in Italy and Canada for over 15 years. I finally decided to open my own restaurant "Trattoria Romantica" in the heart of Sainte-Dorothée, Laval. Dear customers, I know how important you are so rest assured that my team and I will do our utmost to meet your expectations and transport you to the delightful world of fine Italian cuisine that is prepared with authentic products. We look forward to welcoming you in our Trattoria. Chef Dany and his team.
Our Specialties
Pasta, Gnocchi di papà, Veal scaloppini with Gorgonzola, Veal ossobuco Milanese, Grilled lamb chops & Fresh of the day fish.
Trattoria Romantica is described as a warm, romantic Italian dining spot with attentive service and a consistently delicious menu. Guests praise the multi-course experience that typically includes warm bread, bruschetta, entrees, main courses, and dessert, with the gnocchi frequently singled out as a must and ossobuco also praised. The ambiance is cozy and inviting, with friendly staff that add to a welcoming atmosphere and make it easy to linger. The wine list and options by the glass offer good value, and many reviews mention the Valentine menu as a nice touch. Overall, it is viewed as an authentic Italian experience in the Laval area and a reliable go-to for a memorable evening.
My wife & I always wanted to try this Restaurant since we are from Ste. Dorothée. Are we glad we did.
Valentine's Menu was a plus. 3 course meal including warm Italian bread, bruschetta starter, entré, main meal, dessert & cappuccino. No longer bring your own wine, decent price wine by the glass or Italian beer.
Food was wonderful! We had grilled calamari, caprese salad, seafood pasta & my partner had ossobuco. For dessert we had the chocolate tortufo & ferraro roche cake.
The only reason I'm not giving the food 5 stars is because the caprese was chilled so I could tell it was prepared ahead of time & stored in the fridge. I would have preferred room temperature & fresh.

I came her once & immediately fell in love with it. I love the rectangle tables & the service was quick because of the 4 servers. I ordered salmon & it was SO good. Will definitely be coming back.

Des gens accueillants & avenants qui nous on même fait découvrir une boisson que nous ne connaissions pas pour la fête de notre papa. Nous étions en terrasse & peut nombreux à y être.
