    The waitress started out great service, then after appetizers had to hunt her down to get helped. Took a long time between apps and main meal. Not the type of service you expect at this price point.

    We simply had a magnificent dining experience last evening. The food was perfect, the hostess accommodated our request for a table change and we were seated at the best table in the house with the most wonderful ocean view. Our waiter, Jeremy, made our experience even better making excellent suggestions and introducing us to our new favorite carrot cake dessert! Forgot to take a pic of it though. Highly recommended. After enjoying three jumbo stone crab claws (sorry no pic) we shared a petit filet, petit sea bass and Alaskan king cables with charred broccoli. We wouldn’t have change a thing! Wonderful!

    We had one night in Ft Lauderdale and wanted to have Stone Crab Claws. Truluck’s did not disappoint; from our arrival to our departure and everything in between, this was a great experience. Michael, the GM, stopped by our table to check on things and not just once, but several times to insure that everything was going well and tasting great. Katie, our server, was the consummate professional and was very helpful in her suggestions. We started with the Spicy Blackberry Margarita (if you are a Margarita fan - highly recommend), Little Gem Caesar Salad (my husband said “best ever”, Stone Crab Claw Platter, and ended with Key Lime Pie. The restaurant is beautiful with several seating areas and is located across the beach so nice views. If we lived here, this could easily become our favorite restaurant.

    Great great African lobster and drinks. White wine could’ve been colder. They placed on ice bucket to chill it further. 😊
