    My husband and I celebrated our wedding anniversary at Truluck's. It was our first time dining there, but it definitely won't be our last! From start to finish, the food was amazing and the service was topnotch. I can't wait to go back! I am already looking at taking my Mom and Aunt for Mother's Day brunch.

    Our experience was amazing. It was our anniversary and they made us feel very special. The food was outstanding. Will definitely go back. This was our 3rd time and we have never been disappointed. Our waitress Mia made us feel like we were her only customers and was very attentive with everything. She made the evening extra special

    Every time we vacation in Fort Lauderdale we go to Trulucks. It never disappoints. The restaurant is classy and has live entertainment. The food is always excellent and the service is top notch. It’s expensive but worth it. We will always go back.

    From the moment the door was opened to the time we set our dessert spoons down, we experienced the personal care and attention only expected from best in class restaurants. Our experience with Mia, Stefanie and John was memorable and service was impeccable. Timing, temperature and taste of our food was deliciously excellent. Thank you very much for adding to our 39th anniversary celebration and making it perfectly personal and memorable. It was our first time - and we will definitely be back!

    Young lady who seated us at the table was Very rude. She seated us in front of the kitchen And when we asked to be moved she shouted at the top of her voice where do you want to be seated maam. This server did not show up till 20 minutes after we were seated. He did not offer us the condiment that came with the water like the lemon lime and cucumber we had to ask for it. Our food came out cold we ate Mainly the bread and water and took the dinner home Because we were afraid to send it back to the kitchen.. We did not get the service that we expected. We were in Naples a couple weeks ago and we ate a Trulucks and they treated us like royalty. We will not be back to this location.

    I am a loyal customer of Trulucks particularly this location. I enjoy the staff as many of them have been there for years. John is always pleasant and ready for handshake at any time. Alexis is always ready to share a smile and often ask about myself. Sol is wonderful and made our meal delightful with our mini conversations. Upper management exemplifies excellent leadership - David came over and provided us a complimentary appetizer, Ed Tanner came over to the table and created a warm and welcoming energy while he talked about his hometowns of Colorado/ Texas. Thank you all for always a delightful time at Trulucks ...

    We experienced a flawless dining experience. This was our second visit and we love to dine here the evening before our cruise departure. We were thrilled with the generous cold seafood platter on ice, the seasonal stone crab, the large King crab legs and our filet mignon. Our martinis were delicious. Lauren provided excellent service and the manager came by to chat. We enjoyed his visit. Thank you!
