“monday”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed November 18, 2012

Very popular with the locals. Went for the stone-crabs was a little disappointed, my crabs had been crushed which meant that with each bite there was a little piece of shell. Your server made up for that in spades, he was attentive and efficient. When with the shells will eat there again.

“Dinner at Truluck's”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed November 13, 2012

The food was wonderful and our server, Raul, provided exceptional service. We used Open Table to secure a reservation on a busy Saturday night and had no problems getting in.

“Super popular bar/eatery, great wines-by-the-glass selection”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed November 12, 2012

Very popular eatery, especially on Monday stone-crab night. We ate at the bar, service by bartender was superb: attentive, friendly, and efficient. Impressive selection of wines by the glass --- from a system that dispenses and preserves the wines using inert gas.

“Favorite business lunch spot”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 6, 2012

Trulucks is my favorite lunch spot. The seafood is delicious and service is impeccable. My favorites are the corn chowder, red snapper ponchatrain and deserts not to be missed! Its perfect for a business lunch or special occassion. I absolutely recommend it.

“Dependable, noisy, tasty!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed October 25, 2012

Trulucks can be found in more than one city, but it fortunately doesn't give you the impression of any type of chain restaurant. Quality of fish always seems fresh, well presented and professionally served. The wait staff seems very worthy of the starchy white shirts evidenced by their knowledge, timeliness and attention to detail. Try the crab cakes (little to no filler) for a real treat.
