Truluck’s has been one of my favorite restaurants since I first visited many years ago. I took a friend there for dinner and it was her first time to enjoy the unparalleled service, food, and ambience. She was as impressed as I and I know she’ll return many more times in the months and years to come! Thank you. Truluck’s, for living up to your reputation and exceeding expectations.

Micah was our server - excellent in every way. Zero cocktails tasted like they had cologne in them - bitter and unpleasant. Stone crabs excellent as always.

The filet was average, lobster mac & cheese was phenomenal and the Lobster tails were great. Drinks were strong and delicious and the carrot cake alone is worth the trip.
