Recently we have noticed a 'gnat' issue that really needs to be addressed. During our meal we killed a couple of the little buggers, but several more were there to take their place immediately. An occasional gnat is one thing, but when they interrupt the entire meal, that is excessive and needs to be addressed. We will be back, but we hope this gets addressed- ***Update 2.06.2026 The Tilapia sandwich has been my go to for years but STILL, the issue with this restaurant is the gnat problem! I would think that ANY creditable pest control company could make this issue go away. It just doesn't seem healthy-

We had the Shiner Fish & Chips and the Seafood Platter with Blackened Catfish and fried shrimp with grilled veg and mashed potatoes. For desert; because our waitress Allison twisted our arms so we got the New Orleans Breaded Pudding with Whiskey Sauce. Our dining experience was greatly enhanced with live music (Wednesday Nights); there are other nights also. The bathrooms were clean. This is an old downtown building and that factors in.

He was patient, attentive, and courteous throughout the evening. The menu is vast so we had many questions and he took his time to answer all of them. We decided to go with the three course menu. I went with burrata appetizer, 9oz filet mignon, and carrot cake for dessert. My medium rare steak was cooked perfectly and paired with creamed spinach and mashed potatoes. My friend got the scallop and shrimp sauté. The chefs did a fabulous job searing and cooking steak and seafood tenderly. Our dessert was the baked Alaska, carrot cake, and key lime pie. All were super generous portions enough to share. And the right sweet tooth to finish dinner. I would say Trulucks nailed the high end dining experience. And the food and service sold me to come back again. Thank you!

It's really good but it was NOT worth $40/claw... that's outrageous. I also enjoyed the Miso-Glazed Seabass. The asian vegetables that came with it, not so much. Everyone at my table had nothing bad to say about their food, a mixture of steak and seafood dishes. The Baked Alaska had a cool presentation at the table with the flames but the taste was nothing special. The Carrot Cake on the other hand was awesome. The service at Truluck's was VERY good. The staff was attentive and the manager even came by to introduce himself. I do like the small touch of illuminating the menu so it's easier to read.

Our server, Ashlie was very prompt and friendly, especially catering to the elderly members of our table (and our grad, of course!). Her recommendations of the thyme lemon drop and a wine pairing for my porkchop were wonderful! Also, if you're teetering on grabbing the smorgasbord -- DO IT! It was AWESOME! We also got a lovely visit from a manager, Reigan. She spoiled us with a free dessert for our celebration! But what she really did that was above and beyond was after we left the restaurant. We got home and realized one of our boxed items was left on the table. We called to see if we could still grab it and Reigan not only gave us a fresh side of brussel sprouts but even a free corn brûlée because we were raving about it so much! We will absolutely be visiting again!!

Date night at Perry's last night!…read more First things first: Perry's is gorgeous. Modern, upscale, and elegant without making you feel like you're about to be judged for holding your fork wrong. We had reservations and were seated immediately. Unfortunately, our first dinner companion was...a fly. I know this is Texas and flies don't exactly RSVP, but this one seemed determined to experience fine dining right alongside us. Eventually it either found another table or met its untimely demise. Either way, peace was restored. The manager stopped by within the first 20 minutes to check on us (his visit was unrelated to the fly), which was appreciated. Our server was prompt, friendly, and had excellent timing throughout the meal. The only miss? She gave us the speed-run version of the menu and never mentioned any of Perry's signature dishes. She didn't realize it was our first visit until we were paying the check, which explains why we unknowingly skipped what they're apparently famous for. The warm bread arrived early with butter so soft it practically spread itself. Dangerously good. We split the Caesar salad, and honestly, it may have been my favorite part of the meal. Lightly dressed with house-made croutons and seasoned sunflower seeds, every bite had crunchy, citrusy, salty/spicy goodness that somehow all worked together beautifully. For our entrees, my husband ordered the cedar plank-fired redfish, and I went with the special Beef Wellington. We both had the exact same thought after a few bites: the seasoning was winning the battle...against everything else. We love bold seasoning, but it felt like all the flavors were competing for attention instead of letting what seemed to be beautiful cuts of fish and beef shine. The loaded mashed potatoes, however? Zero notes. Cheesy, whipped, buttery perfection. Dessert was the chocolate chip bread pudding with homemade toasted marshmallow, and this is where things really surprised us--in the wrong direction. It somehow managed to be bread pudding...without much flavor. I didn't think that was possible, but here we are. Completely underwhelmed. To wash down our dessert disappointment, we ended the night with the Salted Caramel Espresso Martini. And honestly? It almost redeemed everything. It tasted like the most decadent chocolate milk you've ever had--with just enough espresso to make it feel classy. This drink is dangerous in all the best ways because it goes down far too easily. Order one...just don't blame me when you immediately want a second. As we were leaving, we finally learned the real star of Perry's is the famous pork chop. Then one was delivered to the table next to us. Y'all...that thing looked about five inches tall, carved into slices like a pie, and could probably feed a small family. Holy moly. Final verdict: beautiful restaurant, attentive service, and some genuinely great bites. But if you're a first-timer, do yourself a favor and order the pork chop. Apparently, that's the move. Guess we'll have to go back and let the giant pork chop have its chance at redemption.
