Absolutely stunning anniversary dinner. The best steak I have ever had was here at truluck's it was amazing. The seafood was equally as good my wife was in love with her meal.

This restaurant was so nice very very upscale and get ready to pay the price. So if you just want a nice night out on the town to splurge and spend money this restaurant is it the food was very tasteful season very well. I like how they don’t let any dishes sit on your table if you’re finished with them I don’t care what staff member if they see a dish on the table they remove it right away Very nice meet and clean the restaurant was beautiful the atmosphere was nice. Our waiter for the night his name was Charles he was amazing with the menu very knowledgeable with the area gave us tips on where to go since we only had one day left of being in San Diego.

Fabulous! We had a great experience here. The restaurant is beautifully decorated inside and out. We dined inside. Our server Julia was knowledgeable, personable and provided us with excellent service as did everyone who came to the table. Drinks were served quickly. The food was very good. We ordered crab Louie, crab cake & meatball appetizers. The crab cake was the best with minimal to no breading. The Louie was good.. lots of crab and a little spicy. . The meatballs were fine. Hubby had a filet topped with crab and it was cooked perfectly and delicious. I ordered king crab legs which were sweet and cooked properly. We added a few scallops with the meal and they were great. You can add scallops (1, 2 etc) to any meal and you should. I look forward to returning next time we are in North County.

Our besties that live in San Diego booked this great place for us. If you want fabulous steaks and seafood This is THE place. Not cheap but the quality of the food and how they prepare it makes it worth it for the splurge. My 2 favourite items was the rib eye Steak....OMG so perfectly cooked. Seared it somehow so had this nice flavored texture and juicy and tender inside and the baked entire clove of garlic was amazing ....I might have to say better than my husband's. He doesn't read my reviews so don't tell him please. Crab cake....referred by our friendly attentive server ...it was as if someone deshelled a crab and used that meat to make the crab cakes....hardly any filler used. When we come back I'm definitely gonna order 2 of them . Lobster bisque good chucks of lobster but small and I asked for the temperature to be hot but still wasn't that hot. Lobster tail was good but for 165 us not sure if i would do that again . Prawn cocktails were solid. The famous carrot cake it was too sweet for me and a little too much cream cheese icing...but again if you like sweet desserts it's fantastic. Only thing I didn't like and I didn't post the picture because it looked unappetizing was the creamed spinach. It looked like there was half an inch of oil sitting on the top of it . If you are Canadian...it tastes like milestones spinach and artichoke dip so taste was fine but way too much oil. All in all it was a brilliant meal and I definitely would go back!

Second time eating here, and it was just as good as the first time!!! This place is amazing. Everything is great. The atmosphere, the service, and definitely the food. For starters, we had the Hawaiian Tuna Crudo and the Prime Meatballs. Both were awesome!!! My wife had a Sonama greens salad that she said was tasty!! Our entrées included a Miso glaze Sea Bass and a off the menu Pan-Seared Salmon. Both seasoned nicely and cooked to perfection. Even the Creamed Spinach was delicious. And then to top it off, they gave us this ice cream, cake, and oreo crumble dessert that was soooooo good!!!! I can't give this place enough props. If you have a chance to eat here, I highly recommend you do so!!!!! Excellent restaurant!!!! I'll be back!!

Quick Summary Excellent and fresh seafood. Fantastic service and ambiance. One of my favorite spots in San Diego for a grand dinner Food- 4 stars Stone crab claws- these are what they are known for, and for good reason. These were so sweet, juicy and fresh. Could eat a bunch of these Branzino- this was good, but was a bit disappointed (not the best I've had and had some bones on the fish remaining- should've been basic and opted for the "Jewels of the Sea" menu) Ribeye- this was a bit disappointing for a prime ribeye. It was cooked and seasoned perfectly, but was very chewy and was more like a choice steak (probably had some choice steaks that were more tender) Wedge salad- this was fantastic. I could've eaten 2-3 more of these Lyonnaise potatoes- pretty good and nice to have a deep fried option for potatoes that weren't fries Crab fried rice- this was not what I was expected, but still pretty good. Alot of different flavors here (it's not all heavy, buttery fried rice, which I was expecting from a crab fried rice) Carrot cake- this was pretty good. A bit on the sweeter side but solid Service- 5 stars Service was spectacular from start to finish, which I can expect from a prime chain seafood joint Ambiance- 5 stars Both the indoor and outdoor dining areas are splendid. Little touches like the light-up menu and how awesome the service was made a great experience Bottom Line Stick to the seafood (especially the stone crab claws) and enjoy the spectacular service and ambiance

Fantastic service, lovely ambiance (with live music!), and unbelievable food. Our waiter was incredible and knew the menu inside and out, and gave great recommendations. We ended up getting the crab cake, lobster bisque, striped lobster tail, miso sea bass, lobster mashed potatoes, and asparagus. Get the carrot cake for dessert - it's out of this world. Be prepared to spend a bit but the quality and taste are beyond worth it.

Always a delightful and satisfying experience. Charles was excellent and extremely knowledgeable. Each course that we were served was exquisite from appetizers to dessert. The only thing that I feel should be mentioned is that the crab fried rice has a sweet flavor to it. It wasn't what we expected, but it was still something to try. We weren't the biggest fans, but that's purely personal opinion, nothing was wrong with it at all.

Beautiful place to have dinner here, good ambience, cozy, nice staff and delicious food. Definitely will be back again when visit San Diego. I had a great experience also with the desert. Instead put the brûlée from the kitchen, the waitress help me to fire 🔥 on my table. I wish I can put video in here.

Great experience from start to finish. We arrived in their bar at 5pm for our dinner reservation at 6. They were having their nightly cocktail hour at that time and food and drinks especially were heavily discounted. Headed to our table, our server , Sammy, was excellent. Perfectly timed dining. Excellent food. We shared one crab cake and the tartar tower for our appetizer, and my husband ate all the bread!! Which, as you can imagine, is unbelievably good. My husband had the scallops with mash potatoes and a side order of crab fried rice and I had the 2 pound crab leg. Everything was fresh and presented beautifully. For dessert, we had the huge slice of chocolate cake and a glass of 20 year tawny port. We will definitely go back. And, when you go, ask for Sammy.

This is now my husband and my favorite seafood restaurant. We recently celebrated our anniversary and the restaurant set up the table with candles and rose petals. It was beautiful. Chick, our server, was the best! He really made our anniversary special. The crab claws were delicious and the shrimp cocktail was amazing. The meal ended with a baked Alaska that was out of this world. This was the best anniversary dinner ever! We highly recommended Truluck. Ask for Chick.

This is my 2nd time to come back Truluck’s after my first visit in 2018. I would say my favourites restaurant in my life. You have the best service in the world. 1:3 table, with the most experienced waiter to serve you - where else on the earth u can find this. The table is well designed with full of privacy. Light setting is good with full of romance. We really enjoy the two hours time here which flies. We order a clam chowder, crab cake, and shrimp cocktail as the starters. Crab cake is something that must eat, they make it a bit over cook purposely but god know this is great texture! For main, their South Africa lobster is very fresh and with the lime cream source on the side which also make u can’t stop. Unfortunately I m a meat lover, therefore, their steak suits me better! NY steak is their top seller, what can you say. We couldn’t make our way to dessert :( as we are very full already. Wt a miss.... PS.... use their valet parking is cheaper than park in hotel.....

The experience was beautiful. The staff was awesome! We felt well taken care of and our waiter Sammy was amazing. The food was delicious. I got the Rib eye with gorgonzola and the fried brussel Sprouts. We also got the crab Mac and cheese. It had a LOT of crab in it but it was runny with no seasoning.( the only drawback to this review) The Carrot cake was hands down THE BEST I have ever had. The atmosphere is very upscale and intimate with really nice live entertainment. Please go and ENJOY!

One of the best fine dining seafood restaurant in the area. If you have special occasions to celebrate, this place should definitely be on top of the list to consider, especially if you are a seafood lover. They are known for stone crab claws and other crab varieties. Their crab cakes are amazing, and I might add probably the best compare to many other restaurants. They pack it up with sweet juicy blue crab meat and less of the batter you'd find in many fine dining restaurants. Their chilled shellfish platter is really filling too. We were stuffed before our main entree. The scallops were gigantic and delicious too. Most places give 3 giant scallops as a main entree, this place gives 5! The miso sea bass was also cooked perfectly with quite a nice balance of some asian fusion taste with a bit of tangy taste from the shredded vegetables to accompany the sea bass. Other than food, the service was exceptional! Our waiter Matt was excellent. He was very attentive to everything we needed, and he paid alot of attention to details... frequently keeping our glasses full of water, great at explaining everything on the menu and provided great recommendations suitable to our tastes. He also offered us complimentary dessert for my birthday, which was their famous flaming dessert. It's pretty cool to watch because they pour down liquor that's lid on fire and pour from up high above the dessert, pouring slowly so you see a falling trail of blue flame. Of course, it tastes good too! Overall I had a great experience and highly recommend this place. Will definitely come back again!

I WOULD GIVE 10 STARS FOR THE CRAB CAKE ITSELF. It's using ACTUAL crab meat. Not marshed, not diced, not grounded, WHOLE REAL CRAB MEAT. It's fresh and it's well seasoned. So is every other dishes with crab meat in it. The shrimp cocktail is very delicious and fresh as well. Calamari is kinda soft and our waiter took it back. Overall very very satisfied. Just hope they have clam chowder.

This place is pricey but worth every penny. The seafood is fresh and wonderfully prepared. The steak was so good I didn't even he steak sauce on it. I ate just as they prepared it, like so many with fine pallets than mine say is supposed to be done. The dessert had a great selection and the beauty of going with a large group is that we get to order multiple plates and try them all. The best dessert hands down is the carrot cake. I am not a big dessert person, sorbet/sherbet is usually good for me, but this Carrot Cake was made with love and I loved it. You can even pre-order and get out for Thanksgiving. That's how big the demand is for this cake. Items ordered: Lobster Bisque, Lobster Mac & Cheese, Crab Fried Rice, Steak, Lobster Trails, Oysters Rockefeller, Dessert Sampler and so much more

Great atmosphere, live music, excellent place to have a celebratory dinner and drinks for almost any occasion, upscale and classy. Tried the caviar , it was really good, as the rest of the meal. Was given a free dessert for my birthday.

Truluck’s is situated next to Flemings Steakhouse, an Orange Theory Fitness and a hotel. This location delivers on their brand name and commitment to incredible food. I’ve been here several times and have yet to have a bad meal — the fish is fresh and comes out great. While you wouldn’t ordinarily order steak here, I found it be excellent in comparison to some of the local steak houses (see above). Last, the wine menu packs a punch and delivers great wines. Overall 4/5 stars.

Food was delicious and our server was very helpful/attentive with the menu due to my allergies. He provided suggestions and also asked the kitchen if the entree had the ingredients I was allergic to. I will definitely come back.

It's really hard for me to write a mediocre review for a business especially being a business owner myself. I've heard great things about Truluck's. But sadly that wasn't my experience at all. It started off with nearly 30 minutes to get our order in and a drink. Only for us (3) to receive seriously subpar drinks ( mine was so bad I sent it back for different one to only get a slightly better drink). After a long period of time we receive some bread and crab cake( The standout of the night was definitely the crab cake😍Yummy! ). My daughter and I had the filet mignon. The best way I could explain it is it would have been a really good top sirloin ( but a very tough filet mignon) The service unfortunately took forever. The prices are on Par for a higher end restaurant.. The one standout positive moment was the waiter brought a flaming birthday dessert for my daughter! The presentation was amazing. I wish the dessert tasted remotely close to as good as it looked😢. I truly had high hopes for this place. But as my daughter put it "I don't have the desire to return" this would definitely be my feelings as well. I understand people love this place and I feel terrible writing about a bad experience. But all I have to go on is my personal experience.
