¡Trato hecho!
I'm trying to figure out when to use this expression. Am I right assuming that it means something like 'Deal!' or 'Agreed!'?
For example if we go for dinner and my friend says if we can't eat at xy tonight we'll go there next time, could I answer with 'Trato hecho'?

So more business related? Like an actual deal?

It isn't always used that way. It's used just like in English-an agreement.

It's a deal.=Trato hecho.
It's just a saying we use to mean an agreement. An iformal saying. Let's make a deal. Hacemos un trato. |

"Trato hecho" means "Deal".
Although we dont use "Trato hecho" to answer on the example, If you want to use a more Native Spanish expression to answer, you can use "De acuerdo" (all right) or "está bien" (it's ok). |
