For $59 each, appetizer a choice of salad or roasted cauliflower soup. I enjoyed the very cream laden soup, hubby liked his salad. For mains we had large chunks baked turkey, large glob of bread dressing with gravy on it & large glob of lukewarm mashed potatoes. Along with tasty cranberry compote that had to carry the meal. Vegetables were ala carte. Desserts were overly sweet carrot cake with crumbled cookies all over it & pumpkin cheesecake with crumbled cookies all over it. Cheesecake had a strange spongy texture. Our server was very efficient & attentive. All staff were welcoming.

As always Trulucks provided excellent service, food and atmosphere. We have dined in Dallas on Thanksgiving for 9 years. There are many choices. Trulucks is by far, the very best in all categories including value! The live music was an added bonus. I promise you will not be disappointed!

Lovely atmosphere including a very talented singer. The set menu for Thanksgiving was out of the world. Every dish was warm, full of flavor and traditional. We decided to make Truluck’s our new Thanksgiving tradition.
