    We had a FABULOUS experience after the Air Show for our anniversary! The waitress was outstanding, and the service impeccable as other waiters/waitresses would pick up dishes, pour water. etc.; quite a team. The menu has a lot of choices; we had a hard time choosing between 4 of the best. Almost every menu item has a petite serving and a full serving. Since we had an appetizer and knew we wanted dessert, we chose the petite serving which was plenty. You have to pay for bread which was a new experience for us and some of the menu items are over the top expensive, like King Crab legs for $175. For our anniversary the waitress brought us Baked Alaska for dessert and there was an anniversary card on the table when we arrived ! We HIGHLY recommend this restaurant.

    Our server Dennis was over the top amazing! The food was top notch and the General Manager was accessible and took time out of his evening to chat with us. One of our party was a diehard about the Kentucky Derby and Michael assured him that he could go into the lounge and watch the race. Michael, you made his day!

    Hi Shellane! Thank you so much for the kind words. I'm glad that you were able to see the race and enjoy dinner. It was great spending some time with you and reminiscing about Federal Hill in RI. I hope to see you all again soon! Mike

    I recently had the pleasure of celebrating my birthday at Truluck’s. It was our first time dining here, and we chose an outdoor reservation. Our server, Kyle, and the General Manager, Michael, provided outstanding service that made the evening truly special. To start, our drinks and appetizers were fantastic. I highly recommend the Blackberry Margarita – it was the perfect balance of sweet and spicy. When it came to dinner, my husband specifically mentioned that he does not tolerate spicy foods, and Kyle made sure to relay this message to the kitchen. Unfortunately, the dish arrived twice still too spicy for him. The first attempt had the sauce placed on the side, but the dish itself remained spicy. The second time, the sauce was removed, but the spice seemed to come from the rice, perhaps from the Thai chili. I hope the Chef took the opportunity to taste the dish to determine the source of the issue. Despite this, Kyle and Michael went above and beyond with their guest recovery, ensuring that we were well taken care of throughout the evening. Their attentiveness and professionalism were truly commendable. We were very pleased with the level of service provided and look forward to returning for another visit. If you are looking for an unforgettable dining experience, I highly recommend requesting Kyle as your server. His exceptional service and dedication to guest satisfaction truly made our evening memorable. Thank you once again for a wonderful celebration.

It was great spending some time with you both and we hope to see you again soon! Sincerely, Michael
