My Review by ronaldor on 7/31/2013 via Citysearch

The piano player was fantastic and made the bar area the perfect setting for drinks. The appetizer was great , it was the best calamari I have ever tasted. My steak was also delicious and the chocolate cake dessert was HUGE and we had to…

My Review by aliciar684452025 on 7/30/2013 via Citysearch

Great seafood, great crabcakes, great wines (they have Vouvray, and the waiters know what it is), great service, didn't have to dress up.

Some of each by zzbo on 1/27/2011 via Citysearch

This review is actually for the Arboretum location. This is a great place for half price happy hour drinks and appetizers. The bar is very comfortable and attractive. The service was good and professional. Of the appetizers we tried the…

great food less than stellar service by jillian2010 on 11/29/2010 via Citysearch

Food was good, a bit pricey. The service was awful. I had reservations, was seated by the kitchen. Never a good thing. The waiter was less than attentive and hovered as I figured my gratuity. I had never seen that before. I would…

The best by tFrancine on 11/25/2010 via Citysearch

Kudos to Trulucks for having consistently excellent seafood and steaks. I am so particular about seafood preperation and I have never been even slightly disappointed! One of our favorite places to eat in town

Very good by Bob L on 11/6/2010 via Insider Pages

Very good. Trulucks has some of the best seafood in the city. The selection and service is great, just a bit pricey.

Very good by makeithappen2010 on 11/5/2010 via Citysearch

Trulucks is a great place for a nice dinner or late lunch. Although a bit pricey, the food and service are worth it and it definitely has atmosphere. Recommended for a night out or a romantic evening.

Austin's Best Seafood by f4jock on 6/11/2010 via Citysearch

Have been to both locations in Austin and the food is exceptional. Service is superb and Trulucks does not rip off their customers by using low quality seafood and small portions. Management is the best I have seen in the Austin area. …

LOVE TRULUCK'S by desilou on 4/29/2010 via Citysearch

I was so impressed with my dinner at Truluck's last Friday. I reserved online and they really listened when I said I wanted a cozy but not isolated table. I couldn't have picked a better table myself. The staff had to be the most…

Fabulous food, Incredibly rude service by pcw41 on 12/2/2009 via Citysearch

Maybe Truluck's has turned elitist. Ive been there many times before and always been impressed by the good food and service. This time, same great food but awful service. The waiter was rude the entire dinner, walking off as we were…

Best Food in North Austin by Caitlyn J on 10/1/2009 via Insider Pages

Truluck's is a fantastic location if you are seeking seafood, steak, or a great happy hour. They offer a large selection of wines including wine flights and a variety of after dinner drinks as well. They also feature sustainable Prime…

Best Seafood in Austin by LincolnLogs on 3/10/2009 via Citysearch

Perfect service, great food, wine list is deep. Eat in the dining room or at the bar, same great experience. It is pricey though but you get what you pay for.

Excellent food and service by shaft28 on 2/4/2009 via Citysearch

I've been several times and found the food outstanding and the service excellent as well. Kind of old school restaurant with a great seafod selection that is very modern. We loved the lobster and the crabcakes among ofther…

Truly Unforgettable! by thealley on 12/30/2008 via Citysearch

My bride-to-be and I had our rehearsal dinner at Truluck's. The food and service were so spectacular, we went back to celebrate our first anniversary. To our amazement, the second evening at Truluck's was even more magical than the first.…

Excellent food, great staff by jcoreyevers on 8/20/2008 via Citysearch

Truluck's is by far one of the best restaurants in Austin. The food is consistently great and the staff is always helpful and kind. I would recommend Trulucks to anyone seeking a great meal and a good time.

Absolutely awesome experience - all around by PizzazzGal on 8/17/2008 via Citysearch

Had a fabulous experience from the time we walked in the door. Our waitress, Erika W, was awesome! She assisted with selection of champagne and wine (based on what we usually drink), was very curtious, attentive, helpful, and fun. The…

Avoid This Place by Swimmer47 on 7/20/2008 via Citysearch

We had eaten there in the past and enjoyed the meals. However this night was a surprise. I found that it had changed to an elitist club - I took my wife there to enjoy a meal and was told that we could only eat in the bar or wait 2…

highly professional, amazing food, delightful experience by tricialove on 7/1/2008 via Citysearch

I went there with my family and the experience was perfect from start to finish. the server was professional, friendly, and knowledgeable. We felt very taken care of. We will be returning and thanks for the great experience!

Good service couldn't overcome noise, food quality by UncleHugh on 4/23/2008 via Citysearch

Our anticipation far exceeded the experience. Extremely loud music, totally inappropriate for dining made it dificult to hear our server, who was excellent, very gracious. The room was so dark we were furnished flashlights to read the…

Do yourself a favor by PD7301Suj on 4/15/2008 via Citysearch

Save yourself from the overpriced, noisy atmosphere. While the service was good and the quality of the seafood acceptable, the uninspired chef's concoctions left quite a bit to be desired. I tried several of my companion's dishes and all…
