    The service the food was impeccable  Our friends were delayed because of an airport issue, but they were so gracious and assisted us all the way through the evening. The bread is out of this world the best I’ve ever tasted, and their snow crab is awesome! Eric provided amazing service and the people at the front desk checking us in were wonderful as well! One of the best restaurants in Dallas.

    Not our first time or last. Food was great as always, bar is beautiful and cocktails excellent Funny how one person can ruin your experience. The waiter we had was rushed, trying to do the minimum ( could not replace our bread plates for an appetizer plate) and constantly trying to upsell. We had a good but not great thanksgiving dinner, all for one person Better luck to us next time

    My wife and I made reservations for the lounge on Thanksgiving afternoon. We sat at the bar where we were served by both bartenders working that day. They were professional, polite, and provided prompt service. The stone crab claws and sides were delicious as usual. The entire experience was a nice break from the otherwise hectic holiday weekend.

    Went to Trulucks for Thanksgiving with family and was really disappointed in the food as well as the service. The turkey was just mediocre, the cornbread stuffing was overly moist, the mash potatoes were good, but cold. The salad was amazing and the Parker rolls were off the chain and the Brussels sprouts were great! Our server was not very attentive . We were never offered anything other than water. Just not a good experience.

    A very pleasant and enjoyable experience. The waiter gave exceptional service - non-rushed and service impeccable. The food overall was very good and some excellent. The seafood dishes were fresh and perfectly cooked, but the crab cakes were slightly too salty, and the seabass was slightly too sweet causing it to lose its natural sweetness. Our dinner ended with heavenly dessert.

    Our waiter was fantastic! The food was very good with a great view and all staff was very friendly. We could hear the live music from the bar, which was excellent. Had the baked Alaska for dessert and it was so yummy! Scallops were great. The stone crab was good but hard to eat because the shell was cracked into tiny pieces. I wish it had been easier to eat since it was “pre cracked”.

    Greetings Shelly, We are honored to receive your feedback and elated to hear that you enjoyed your Truluck’s experience. Thank you for sharing your thoughts with us – they truly make a difference. I apologize for the stone claws. I have addressed the cracking with chef and the team so that will not happen again.

    We have been to numerous Truluck’s all over and this was a disappointing experience all around. Our waiter was condescending and took forever. We were with another couple and at one point in the evening he spilled two large glasses of water on them and barely said he was sorry. They were drenched! After that episode, we never saw him again until we had to flag him down for our check. When he took out credit cards, we waited over 20 minutes for him to return. The service was ridiculous. In addition, the food was subpar at best. I ordered king crab and the pieces were small and it was warm (I ordered cold), my husband’s fish was barely warm, our friend’s soup was cold and their entrees were also not warm. It was just a miserable experience start to finish. We and our friends will never go back. There are much better options such as Ocean Prime in the area.

    Truluck’s is how elegant dining is supposed to be. People dressed up, the ambiance was superb, our server was fun, knowledgeable and attentive. The singer/piano player had a great playlist and finally, the food was second to none. We had the lobster bisque. Chunks of lobster and a light sherry taste. Old school! My tuna was excellent. My wife’s king crab was equally great. We were in from out of town but we’ll be back.

    The two of us had a large table next to a window with a lovely view of lit up office towers. The service was efficient and helpful. The stone crab claws were fresh and the sauce was Florida classic. The seared tuna and the branzino were perfectly prepared and complimented by succulent sauces. The wine list was comprehensive.

    Truluck's is one of the best Seafood Restaurants in the World. Dallas is blessed by having it. My favorite menu items are the South African Lobster Tail, the Alaskan King Crab Legs and the Stone Crab Claws. This is an upscale fine dining restaurant and we love to celebrate birthdays and special occasions here. You can't go wrong with Trulucks.
