Truluck's Ocean's Finest Seafood and Crab

We are briefly visiting Austin, Texas for the first time and your restaurant was recommended at the last minute by our hotel, and we are so grateful. We celebrated our 25th wedding anniversary there last night and thoroughly enjoyed it. I believe the hostess name was Amanda and she saw we were a bit low-spirited and overwhelmed at arrival and made sure everything was handled with care for what was left of our anniversary. From the beautiful table, to picture taking, ambience, and a flaming baked Alaska at the end, we couldn’t be more grateful. Thank you Amanda and Truluck’s for providing an 11th hour extremely special experience.

We drove from San Antonio to Austin to have dinner at Truluck's to celebrate my wife's 60th birthday 🎉 and Truluck's did not disappoint. We were running a little late, about 20 minutes late from our reservation time, and I was prepared for the restaurant staff to give me a hard time from running late, but they did not. To my surprise, the staff were welcoming and very friendly! We were escorted to our table, and the rest was history! Our party of 16 had a great time! The food and the service were excellent!! I wished we had more time to eat more dessert, but our limo was waiting to take us back to San Antonio! Another party in the restaurant wanted to join in with our celebration! 🥳

We visited for the Thanksgiving special. The portion sizes were generous definitely more than enough for one person. The overall food quality was good, but most dishes were pretty bland. The pecan salad didn’t have any dressing and felt more like a bowl of chopped vegetables. The cauliflower soup was okay but lacked flavor. The turkey was juicy and well-cooked, and the stuffing was fine but nothing special. The cranberry sauce was very sour; it would’ve been much better with a bit more sweetness. The desserts, however, were all fresh, delicious, and definitely the highlight of the meal. The restaurant’s décor is really nice and creates a pleasant atmosphere.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Truluck’s Ocean’s Finest Seafood in Downtown Austin never disappoints! From the moment we arrived, the service was warm, attentive, and genuinely friendly — making the evening feel effortless and relaxing. We grabbed seats in the bar area, which had an inviting, upscale vibe perfect for a late-night bite and cocktails. The fresh oyster selections were outstanding — briny, crisp, and beautifully presented. The cocktails were just as impressive, perfectly balanced and crafted with care. For food, we shared the Tuna Tartare, Calamari, Lobster Mac and Cheese, and Lobster Fried Rice — every dish was exceptional and ideal for sharing. Each bite was flavorful, fresh, and elegantly prepared. Truluck’s is the perfect spot for a nightcap or a light dinner with a touch of sophistication

Been here before and already loved this place but I took my partner here to propose to him at dinner and let me just say the staff was amazing at helping me coordinate this special evening. Spoke with the hostess Amanda on the phone who was extremely sweet and helpful throughout the process and really helped set the stage for what I already planned to be an incredible night. I was told by a friend that we should have KG as our server and she was phenomenal! Very attentive, funny and really worked with me to help execute my plan. We couldn't have asked for a better server for this special evening. Our food was amazing and they gave a us a nice corner table with rose pedals so we had some privacy to ourselves. I have to give credit to the whole staff because not only were all my ideas brou
