Truluck's Reviews 3

I am stephanie Etche I appreciate the quick response from the staff and the games I played

Outstanding culinary and service experience in every possible way.
Worth every $ we had a family dinner (6) last evening, everyone loved it.
Definitely going again…
Highly recommended…

I had the worst experience ever at Truluck's Restaurant in downtown DC tonight. My dinner was a disaster.
The specialty $125 lobster was over cooked, tough and very rubbery; the mashed potatoes were dry; and the asparagus had no taste at all. My waiter, Paul, did not even offer an apology for the bad food, not even a change of expression. In fact, there was no extra effort on his part throughout the experience. I'm sure he counted on and was grateful that the restaurant tacks on an automatic 18 percent gratuity on all checks. I ended up settling for a wedge salad for dinner, which was fine. I tried again with the dessert. I ordered a Baked Alaska. The frosting tasted like lighter fluid. My husband had a ribeye steak, and he said that it was just so so, definitely not worth the price. On a previous occasion, when we dined here, the food was amazing and the service was phenomenal. I had the same specialty lobster the last time I came, and it was tender and delicious. This restaurant has definitely gone down in quality of food and service, but not the price. The restaurant is still beautiful, just subpar food. I no longer recommend this restaurant. Save your time and money and find another steakhouse or seafood restaurant that will want and appreciate your patronage.
