About this business

Truluck's has made its reputation based on fresh crab caught by its own boats, but the sophisticated restaurant also serves steaks and other seafood. Steaks and seafood can be a bit pricey, but the cost comes for the hefty abundance of quality and expert flavor. Savvy singles and others order from the prix-fixe "date menu", which offers a three-course meal to sample the restaurant's finest catches.

This restaurant/cocktail bar happened to be across the street from our hotel. We went for pre dinner drinks and found a terrific atmosphere and beautiful surroundings. It's a real bonus when you are experiencing a late night feel with live lounge music great food and it's only 5pm ! We went 2 nights in a row and both times served by charming and very professional Rachel. Would have no hesitation recommending Trulucks. Only sad we couldn't experience it 3 nights in a row

What a fun experience ! We wondered in after coming from a cocktail hour in downtown San Diego .

What a great time , live piano and amazing fish � we where treated with such kindness and service I was really honestly impressed . Defiantly bringing my parents when they come into town . I really had s... read more

This is our second experience at Truluck's, but every year on my birthday my husband has brought me this carrot cake and that was how we discovered this awesome restaurant. This is our first time sharing the experience as a family, and from the valet to the personal service at the door to the excellent table sservice, food and beautiful celebration of my birthday to the follow up personal phone call we received today it was incredible. I had the miso glazed Seabass. It melted in my mouth, and my children loved their food too... read more

In town for a few days and decided to go for dinner. So glad we did. We will make sure to visit again when in town. The food was beyond our expectations, so delicious. Service was excellent, and even had a phone call today from the manger to make sure we had a good experience. Very impressed, can't wait to go again.
