    The restaurant is stunning with 180 degree views of an impressive skyline and the service is exemplary. I would describe the food as "corporate competent" and, of course, overpriced, but that seems to be part of the intended "luxury" experience.

    My wife and I celebrated our 24th wedding anniversary at Truluck's, and it was one of the most enjoyable dining experiences we've had in a long time (and we've had quite a few!). Our waiter, Micah, was fantastic. We chatted at length with him, enjoying his company as we got to know him. His knowledge of the menu and food was extensive and spot-on, and we very much appreciated his recommendations. The food was fantastic! Service was wonderfully paced and our waiter was highly intuitive in his service; we lacked nothing and it was as if he anticipated our every need. My wife and I will recommend Truluck's to everyone. It is not an inexpensive meal, but for an anniversary or any other special occasion, it's worth it. You will not be disappointed!

    We had a another fantastic experience at Truluck’s on Saturday night! From the kind attentiveness demonstrated by Maggie when confirming our reservation to the amazing teamwork and personality shown by Corey and Erin, to the delicious meal and baked Alaska dessert (many thanks to the manager), we couldn’t have asked for a better anniversary dinner experience. In another nice touch, there were other staff members who also went out of their way to personalize our experience by acknowledging our anniversary. Thank you, Truluck’s family, for your continued warmth, excellence, and ability to make us feel part of your family for our special evening!

    A WHOLE VIBE!! I booked my reservation online in advance for my husband's birthday and the hostesses (Mykayla and another young lady) were so sweet and helpful. Ryan, who is just THE nicest and most down to earth guy (upper management) greeted us and also checked on us after we were served.. Our waiter Eric was nothing short of amazing, he remembered every request and was so friendly and kind hearted. We shared 4 appetizers, had a second course, several drinks, entree, and Eric brought out a special birthday suprise for my husband. I felt, seen, loved on, and appreciated and my husband was blown away by everything! This place is pure luxury!

    My boyfriend and I have made Truluck’s our birthday traditions. The food is excellent. For appetizer we had the meatballs, so soft and moist. We shared a Ceaser salad which was just as delicious. For dinner we had the miso glazed seabass with fried rice and sesame seared tuna with mashed potatoes . My goodness is all I can say to both dishes. We had a wonderful artist playing cover songs and she sounded delightful.

    Today’s visit was not good. Lot of issues. My wine glass had a small piece of cork floating. My well done steak was served medium. Had to be recooked. My wife’s scallops was cold. Overall, not a good experience with very high fine dining prices. I don’t mind paying, but not for these issues. I probably will not be coming back.

    Last night was my birthday dinner at Truluck’s and what a fabulous dinner it was! I especially liked 3 things: my Voila! cocktail which was pink and bubbly and smoking (dry ice) and very tasty! The I ordered the Branzino which was a white flaky fish topped with olives and capers- wonderful!! And dessert -Baked Alaska- was the best I’ve ever had! Our server was great- knowledgeable, friendly and she had even done the signature Happy Birthday on the dessert plate after the pastry chef finished! When we got seated , our guy noticed we had on black and switched our napkins to black without even being asked. My fiancé and I are looking forward to our next visit!

    First class all the way. Beautiful room, easy parking, professional staff. Good seafood, well prepared. Certainly pricey, and probably could do with a tad less selling from the waiter. But these are quibbles. Excellent experience and I’ll be back.

    My dad and I treated my mom her for her birthday and I’m so glad we chose Truluck’s. It was mine and my dad’s first time visiting and it won’t be our last. We were quickly greeted and seated in what I considered one of the best tables. Our waiter, Eric, was friendly, attentive, knowledgeable and detail oriented. He listened to our requests and provided recommendations that were spot on. We never had to ask for a refill or wait for him to return to our table. He was respectful of our conversation and space while also providing exceptional service. We ordered the miso glazed sea bass, king crab, steak, lobster tail, mushrooms, creamed spinach, fried calamari, yellowtail, and crème brûlée and chocolate cake for dessert. The restaurant gifted my mom baked Alaska which so happens to be one of our favorite desserts. The food was fantastic. Each dish was cooked perfectly and kept getting better and better. 10/10 service, ambiance and food experience.

But my favorite was their light up menus !! Riley our waiter was awesome! Cannot think of enough words to describe him! Any doubt or question we had he made sure to answer it. Will definitely be returning to Truluck’s. The experience, service, and food left us speechless literally!

    Overall, the environment is great at Trulucks, but the meal.lacked flavor and seasoning. I rarely pick up the salt and pepper shaker but had to this time for my fish. They also don't provide bread complimentary. Having guests pay for bread when the meal costs well into $200 is tacky. Still one of my favorite spots, but overall, they could do better... much better.

    My husband and I shared a Crab remoulade as an appetizer, which was so good. I had the jalapeno salmon which could have done with a little bit more spice but prepared expertly , but my husbands redfish ponchetrain was delicious. Our server Micah was unobtrusive but efficient with a great sense of humor. Really enjoyed the ambiance and the excellence of food and care.
