Thank you for a truly amazing thanksgiving! From the top notch service to the amazing meal we couldn’t be more happy we chose Trulucks in Ft. Lauderdale. The thanksgiving special surpassed our expectations. The shrimp cocktail along with stone crabs were a great start and our steak was cooked perfectly. The carrot cake was literally the best carrot cake I have ever had. We dine out probably more than we should and haven’t had such amazing service in a long time. We had an amazing time and definitely will be back.

We had a wonderful Thanksgiving evening, sitting outside in the patio area. Or server Beau was incredible and so kind. He was very attentive and gave us excellent suggestions which we appreciated. When the food came out, it was all so delicious and so flavorful! For dessert, we tried the carrot cake, which we all agreed was the best we’ve ever had! We really enjoyed the ambience and would recommend dinner at Trulucks in a heartbeat.

Reservation was at 4pm. Arrived at 3:56pm. Was told our assigned table was still occupied and we would have to wait 15-20 minutes. I asked what the wait was worth and was offered a drink at the bar for my wife and I. Waited 25 minutes for our table. Did not receive our first course until 4:45pm.

First time dining at Truluck’s but familiar with food and service from Texas locations. We ordered the thanksgiving day meal (plus a crabcake as appetizer, which is always good). We were presently surprised by the turkey meal, extremely flavorful, well seasoned, and larger portions. This location is definitely more Florida, not the moody color scheme and ambience of other restaurants, but equally nice (get rid of the chintzy fake flowers from previously failed restaurant which occupied the space). It’s a great location, great bar, and happy hour menu, so looking forward to returning at another time to enjoy again.
