   Amazing Christmas Eve dinner. Our family made a traditional for many years now to come to Brickell’s Trulucks. We were well seated with plenty of room for our 1 year old stroller and our experience was amazing. Lourdes, our server, was kind, prompt and so nice. We chose the specials (Australian Wagyu steak and 20oz Lobster tail with crabmeat topping) for the evening and they were delicious. The carrot cake is their best dessert as we had a taste of all options in the menu. We will be back for our tradition next year. Thanks

   The worst! I must say it was a horrible Christmas Eve dinner. We were sat outside in the patio area which had the floor of their patio soaking wet don’t know where it came from. When I asked the manager he didn’t know either, still remains a great mystery apparently! The food portions were way smaller than I remember from the last time I was there. And our server Kath was the rudest person I have encountered, she was clearly upset to be working on Christmas Eve. She might need to get into another line of work. Overall not worth the money for what you receive.

   Another excellent meal and overall experience at Truluck’s Miami - this time on Christmas Eve. The restaurant was beautifully and tastefully decorated, we were personally greeted by the manager and other staff members, the waitstaff are all incredibly professional and friendly, and the food superb - not only in terms of taste but also in terms of presentation. Best presentation of lobster bisque I’ve ever seen and it was delicious, as was everything we had. We especially appreciate that the waitstaff all manage to strike a perfect balance between attentive and discreet. Truluck’s is a gem of a restaurant right in the heart of Brickell.

   If you’re looking for a tasty and delicious meal- you must come here! The service from Ricky was wonderful - he makes sure to honor our special requests. We also know the manager Jason who is lovely and always gives use a lovely table. Now to the fun part- the food. You must get the Parker rolls hot from the oven and so warm and good. The chilean sea bass was perfection especially with the miso glazed and crab fried rice. The cocktails were perfect as well. We will be back for dessert. They also have an amazing piano player which sets a great atmosphere as well.

   Truluck’s Miami is a beautiful facility. It has a great bar area & dining room. It was very loud on the evening we were there. My 16oz. Ribeye for $68 was not very good .. rubbery would be a descriptive word. My wife had the Crab stuffed lobster tails. She said it had a funky aftertaste which she couldn’t pinpoint. The Lobster bisque was very good as was the mixed greens salad. I’m afraid it will be our last visit to a Truluck’s. Our server, MRk, was terrific.

   Lackluster experience and was hoping for much more. Tuna tartare which was recommended had zero flavor. Had the filet trio and it was drenched in mediocre sauces and overcooked. Very disappointed for the cost. Service was great - that was the highlight.

   I had gone to (Trulucks) over a month ago and for the first time in a long time I had a bad experience. Without fail though I was contacted by member of the management team who apologized and offered to treat me to dinner. Once again, I returned to what is now my favorite restaurant and the service was impeccable, the food, incredible, and the dessert legendary. The only restaurant I go to where I get a phone call the very next day to see how I enjoyed the service. And this is how you keep me going back over and over again after all these years. Thank you for a wonderful time.

    Paola was our server and she was superb. Oysters, stone crab, snapper, Sonoma mixed green salad, carrot cake. All we recommend. Even the Irish coffee, though not like the Buena Vista Cafe, was very good. Pricey but still a great experience.
