                              Great service from our waiter Drew and our wonderful Sommelier Sammy. Lovely atmosphere on the patio. Excellent Sea Bass. Carrot cake is ridiculously good.

                              First Time There. Great Restaurant! Cousin in Town from Texas and he wanted the best seafood I could find. He absolutely loved Truluck's and so did I! The only thing I would say is please open the King Crab leg all the way, or give me tool to do finish opening it.

                              Amazing experience! Can't say enough positive things about how memorable our experience was. They go above and beyond from the moment you arrive to the moment you leave. The bar atmosphere is fun, the dining room is quaint and roomy. We sat at a booth and it was the perfect set up for a romantic date night. We ordered stone crabs, oysters, scallops, and the filet. Overall, I highly recommend this location and can't wait to come back.
