   Had high expectations, and they delivered. The seafood was high quality, fresh and tasteful. We had the lobster tails with blue crab. Oysters as appetizers, side dishes included the crab rice that was also very good. Wine was on point, a great Saint-Émilion. For dessert, this was a Birthday celebration, we received the baked Alaska dessert with a flambé display at the table. Delicious! Our server Justin was outstanding, and made our experience dinning here a remarkable one. A customized Birthday card, and festive set up for the table made it even more special. Great place for a fabulous dinning experience.

   This special occasion family dinner was wonderful. Greeted by friendly hostesses, walked out to a beautiful table ready for us, the menu had so many choices, and our server, Mike, was so friendly and helpful throughout the entire night from start to finish. We all had a wonderful dinner,, whether it was tuna tartare, calamari, steak, salmon, lobster scampi over pasta, and then the flambes set aflame on the table. Everything was great!! Special thanks to manager, Jessica, who also assisted with the pre-meal and dining experience. Thank you Trulucks for a fantastic night.

   Terrible experience. 45 min to get a drink serviced. Tuna was grey and over cooked. Service was terrible. Items charge on our bill that we did not order. This was a birthday dinner and a complete disappointment.

   Oh, Melanie! We're truly sorry to hear that your birthday dinner didn't meet your expectations. We take pride in our food and service, and it's disappointing to hear that we fell short during your visit. Nothing about this sounds like the typical Truluck's experience. I would love to speak with you at your earliest convenience. -Mike Levine, General Manager

   I visited this restaurant back in November since it had been a long time favorite of mine prior to the old location closing. I saw that they reopened again close by so decided to give it a try, my experience then was not very pleasant. I wrote about it and was contacted by the general manager Michael. He sent a gift card for us to try the restaurant again and the second time around did not disappoint. The service was amazing, the food and drinks were great. This is the Truluck’s I remember. I would definitely dine again based on this experience!

   We had another delightful meal at Trulucks last night. The food is really good the calmari is the best in town, the Ceasar was good and the Stone Crabs were huge fresh tasty and cracked so you could easily get to the meat and enjoy. We think the atmosphere are this place is among the best in South Florida the decor, Olive Trees, ocean view and bar make for an exiting dining experience. Our waiter was top notch also just great all the way around.

   The ambiance was sophisticated and welcoming. Our server, Jeremy was particularly outstanding. He was very knowledgeable about the menu, offered excellent recommendations, and checked in on us regularly without being intrusive. We first sat outside but then the rain started a bit and the manager was very accommodating and extremely polite and moved us inside. The food was amazing. The stone crab was delicious as it always is here. For our main courses we had the Petit Lobster tail scampi which was amazing as was the lamb chops. Both dishes were cooked to perfection, bursting with flavor, and nicely plated.

    Shout out to Gabby. Took care of us for happy hour. Food was incredible. Yes you’re going to pay a lot but you’re not only paying for what you eat but for the experience. The staff go above and beyond to make you feel welcome and treat you like royalty. Shout out to Maria. Her service, charm, smile and cherry ear rings made this a night (& birthday) to remember. Also gluten sensitive people need not worry. Great choices for a main dish and those gluten free almond cookies were🔥🔥🔥
