Before you Visit

We are a special occasion restaurant and we encourage our guests to dress for the occasion they’re celebrating.

We prefer a style of dress that is polished yet comfortable. We consider attire such as gym wear, sweatpants, ball caps, clothing with offensive language, images or odors, and exposed undergarments too casual for our restaurant.  Please be considerate of others and limit distractions that may interrupt the dining experience including disruptive behaviors, crying children, and audible technologies.

What's on

The Menu

Since opening our doors in 1992, Truluck’s has built every menu around a single principle—honoring the waters that provide for us. We work directly with conscientious harvesters dedicated to protecting marine habitats, so each dish reflects a commitment to ocean stewardship that extends well beyond the plate.

When Florida Stone Crab season opens on October 15th and runs through May 1st, it marks the highlight of our dining year. Only the claws are carefully harvested, allowing the crab to return to the water and naturally regrow. Presented chilled and pre-cracked alongside our signature mustard sauce—a recipe honed across three decades—it remains the cornerstone of the Truluck’s experience.

Our kitchen also showcases sesame-seared ahi tuna, golden pan-roasted scallops, jumbo shrimp, hand-shucked oysters, premium king crab, succulent lobster and seasonal selections that reflect the ocean’s ever-changing bounty. Guests who prefer land-based fare will discover USDA Prime steaks—expertly cut filets, bold New York strips and our Sunday-exclusive slow-roasted Prime Rib, served with shallot-rosemary au jus.

Round out your evening with a pour from our thoughtfully appointed wine cellar or a expertly built cocktail. Ask about TRU Ninety-Two, a refined three-course prix fixe for $59, offered until 6pm Monday through Saturday and all evening on Sunday. At the bar, Happy Hour features 50% off featured cocktails, wines and oysters.
