Super happy I stopped in here for dinner on a Monday. Monday's are $5 martini days! Loved their espresso and their chocolate martinis. Street parking is readily available and free. We ended up sampling their shareable menu which had too many tasty things to try in one sitting. We will be back soon! read more

The service was great, very friendly staff. Had the biscuits and gravy, was delicious, came with a side of potatoes and an egg, was a large meal but was pretty cheap. Also had a mimosas, large glass 10/10. Nice outdoor patio with umbrellas for shade. Overall great experience read more

Tiffany is waiting on us this morning. Ordered corn beef hash skillet, scrambled eggs, turkey avocado, romaine lettuce, fried egg, coffee. $38.11 Reasonably priced. The cinnamon French toasts are hard and chewy, one side is burnt on every slice of the toast. Don't think they were soaked long enough in the egg wash at all. They only have syrup, not maple syrup here. The first turkey avocado croissant didn't have any romaine lettuce and the egg was undercooked and runny. The corn beef hash skillet was blah, corn beef looked like deli sliced meat. My husband wished there were more veggies. The second croissant sandwich was good. The egg was fried nicely. Deli turkey meat was slightly refried on the griddle maybe. This was better for me with the honey mustard. Wasn't fond of the gelatinous cilantro lime vinaigrette at all. Took a bit to get our bill and card run through to pay. Service and most of the food was average, reminded myself it's a bar after all. The bathroom is big for it being a single stall bathroom. It's well maintained. read more

Our food here was decent- nothing remarkable, but enough for us to potentially return. However, our service, while nice, was super slow and I felt like we had been forgotten a few times. I felt like the food came out at somewhat reasonable times, but we never saw our waitress in between orders, and it took forever to place our order, receive the check, and then get the check back. I did like the outdoor patio though! read more

Had lunch after driving in the fog not know where to go. This was recommended and we were very satisfied. Not many customers around 2pm. The hostess and server were both very friendly. Amanda gave us a history of its existence as well as explain their specials. Our eyes fixed on the Lobster Grilled cheese and soup. We started with calamari which was very tender. The sandwich was full of lobster and the toast was so crisp and buttery. I got tomato basil and my friend got lobster bisque and they were both good but mine was better. I had a Chocolate Lava cake but forgot to take a pic. Truago has outdoor seating so we'll need to go back in the summer although the drive from Southfield is a bit far but it was worth it. read more

There is a wide variety of choices. We shared a lobster avocado quesadilla which was unique and good. Lobster bisque and french onion soups were both tasty. For main course we had crab stuffed flounder and short rib ragu. They were ok, but not flavorful. Service was slow even though they weren't very busy. The booth area is next to the bar, and very loud. Our table was actually dark as there was no light above it. May go back for another try but probably not for a while. read more

This is one of my favorite restaurants in the Detroit area! We were here for Mother's Day dinner and came back a week later for a birthday brunch! The staff is consistently friendly whether they are waiting room only or have open tables. Mother's Day dinner was fantastic! Prime rib, steak, and the 4-course meal were all hits. Cocktails were good (they had to remake one as they forgot a few ingredients, but once it was remade, it was excellent) For brunch - the lobster and biscuits were INCREDIBLE! The monte cristo is good, and the blueberry pancakes were very much enjoyed! read more

I have been coming to Truago for years and have enjoyed every meal I've had. Amanda has been my server multiple times and she is just amazing. She is the best server I've had at any restaurant. Food was great and I love that they have indoor and outdoor seating. read more

I've been going here for years! I love this place!! It's nice and calming,they redid the place so it looks really cool!! The scallops are sooo good but they are small compared to the other restaurants I've seen but it's soooo good!! The waiter was really nice!! He had a cool haircut and clear glasses! And when I got fruit I got colossal blueberries!! I love this placeee read more

Came here with a big party for brunch while family members were visiting from out of town. We had a reservation and they had a nice long table set up when we got there. The service was friendly and the brunch menu was good as well with classic items and more different offerings as well. We all enjoyed our meals and time spent together. read more

Crab stuffed flounder. Yes just crab. Wild rice very greasy? Staff untrained in service. Simple things like a cocktail napkin for your wine. The owner was right at the bar with us and never said a word. read more

Shit be hit or miss , sometimes the food is hot and good , other time cold and trash as hell , fuck w them folks tho

Our server was very kind but if you're going to have upscale dining prices, you need upscale dining service standards and unfortunately this place just missed the mark. They have a cute patio and the restaurant inside felt clean for the most part. The food and drinks were definitely subpar. The menu was interesting. Spinach puffs were good. Probably the best part of the experience. A lot of menu items were "basil and strawberry" including drink options and they were out of basil so- two items we ordered were missing one of the main ingredients on the menu. $52 for an over salted 8oz filet and two literal dollops of potato was wild and uncalled for. The drinks were sugary and underwhelming. I'm trying to be kind and say that they have good menu ideas here, Just maybe poorly executed but honestly the menu isn't very cohesive and lacks vision. Dinner, drinks and apps $280. For the price/execution I will definitely choose a different dining establishment. read more

First and foremost, I always have amazing service when I come here! I usually love this restaurant but the last two times my food has come out subpar. That was hardley any lobster in my $28 lobster Mac and cheese. Extremely confused with the price due to the lack of lobster, essentially I'm paying a lot for not seasoned home made Mac and cheese. Then the other day my perch barley had any meat on it compared to last time I got it. I asked for it blackened and it came out fried? Possibly because it looked so bare they fried it to help remedy the appearance. This is usually my usual spot to dine in, but not sure when I'll be back due to quality of food this entire week. read more

I absolutely love this place! They make you feel comfortable and the food is great. Highly recommend.

The service is good and the food is fine. A little pricey for getting your basic breakfast food. I haven't been there for other meals so I can't speak on that. read more

It's unfortunate that my husband and I no longer dine at Truago as we live close by and COULD have been regular patrons. The service is awful and they don't even acknowledge you when you walk in. Food is very very slow. Take out takes hours no matter what time of day/week you order. We gave them enough chances to redeem themselves and we will never go back again. read more

Mediocre male waiter service, brunch was cheap and good, very good prices so not large portions but really good for the price. Blood Mary was pre mixed so eh, but overall good food for the price. Solid 3 stars. No more. read more

Food was excellent, it was a nice laid back place with friendly people to chat with. Service was excellent with the exception of the bartender who spent more time talking to a regular than waiting on tables. We had to wait for drinks and to just order, another group gave up and left. She was too busy telling the locals about how many jobs and how hard she worked to take care of guests. Once we saw the other wait staff having issues with her and being delayed, we knew it was hopeless.... Too bad, aside from that, place is a winner. read more

We had a wedding rehearsal dinner on the covered patio on 7/10. It was wonderful!!!! The managers were helpful with all the planning and the staff was friendly & AWESOME~ food was Delish!!! Thanks it was a great time & memory! read more

My service was A1 everyone was extremely nice. Sat outside very beautiful atmosphere; I ordered, crab cake which was small for the price but tasted ok, could've been seasoned a little more to give it more flavor; ordered crab legs which were delicious. My guest ordered lamb chops, they were not seasoned but were a nice size. I would advise against getting the mint jelly. No disrespect but my advice to the chef would be to marinate and season the lamb chops before cooking. read more

While visiting family in Riverview/Trenton, Michigan, knowing my dietary preferences Truago was my cousin's pick for dinner. There were so many options on the menu that caught my eye, it took me a long time to decide what to order. And we decided then, we'd just have to come back to try another choice and we did! The first dinner we ordered Avocado Wedges as an appetizer and the Lobster Dip at the second dinner. The Lobster Dip stole the show from everything I tried there. The first dinner I had the ahi street tacos + a side of Brussel sprouts. We sat outside on the covered patio. The second dinner I ordered the ahi poke bowl and we sat on the uncovered portion of the patio and watched a beautiful sunset. The ambience was easy and casual. The service was courteous. I look forward to a return visit to try the locally sourced from Weyand's Fishery Michigan Lake Perch Fish and Chips. read more

Very good service and great brunch menu. We enjoyed our meal. Bloody Mary bar was also good

Food is excellent. Went again on New Years eve not realizing they had a special menu. I had the crab stuffed flounder with lobster sauce that made my tastebuds light up. That night they had an hors d'oeuvre and dessert bar so we were able to sample things that we might not order otherwise. One friend had the Prime Rib and said it was out of this world good. Another the Lasagna which she thoroughly enjoyed. All in all a very good meal. read more

Never a bad meal Prices are up but just right Get what you pay for. Delicious!!! Staff is very professional and spot on. read more

My BFF took me here for lunch the other day and I was very impressed! The decor is very welcoming and classy. It's not a large place, so I could see it getting very busy at dinner time. She ordered a salad with chicken and I had the shrimp tacos with a side of the sprouts and their sidewinder fries. We both had iced tea to drink and it's freshly brewed and delicious! Service was great. I will definitely be back next time I'm in town. read more

Cute hot spot in downtown with patio seating. Lunchtime on Black Friday - only a few people were there. The waitress was excellent and handled the whole restaurant, including hostess duties. The Yelp reviews are great, with good recommendations, which is what brought us in for a meal. The Arancini - Two large risotto balls, one sitting in a bechamel sauce and the other in a marinara. Both had excellent flavor. My only note is that the rice was slightly undercooked. Huge portion, so definitely share. The Ahi tuna tacos - three tacos for $10, in wonton shells. The portion is small, the wasabi was hot, but the flavor was great. Thankfully the arancini took care of the hunger pangs, otherwise, this wouldn't have been enough. I was really looking forward to tuna but it was a bit lost under the hit of wasabi. There is an ahi tuna appetizer that would probably have been the better way to go. Soup of the day - a very thick asparagus and broccoli cream soup. I should have ordered a cup. A bowl is a meal. The flavor was rich but a bit too thick. Gloopy even. Kicked it up with fresh cracked pepper available on the table. We were too early for happy hour. I believe it's only at the bar - which was large with plenty of seating. The waitress was sweet and a great server but I would have loved to tell her that though a nice fragrance, her perfume was too much. Each time she passed by, we got a nose full of perfume, which clashes with trying to enjoy a meal. This is very far outside of our typical radius but always like to try different places. Solid restaurant for a nice afternoon. read more

Service was terrific. Ask for Theresa. Went off the specialty of the house (seafood) and had a mango chicken dish. A very good dish but Theresa recommended a side of siratcha sauce that made this a 10 out of 10. Also since it was slider night (Monday) had to try one of their Cherry chicken salad sliders; excellent!!! Can't wait to try some of their other ones. read more

Hello, our son Trent, has been to the Lobsterfest for the last three years, since inception. This last year, we were unable to secure the precious LOBSTAH? I did post a picture of he and I, in front of the inflated lobster. We were the first to be turned away and it was made right tonight! When an owner or management seeks you out to make something right...It really shows you the understanding of an owner and great management! l did not see a problem with it and we were ok with the outcome. Things happen... Jeremy and TRUAGO went above and beyond! Their lil LOBSTOBERFEST Prince, got all of it and then some! This is thee epitome of customer service at its BEST! read more

We went there for brunch, and we all individually loved our food. Chicken and waffles we really good, MacDonald breakfast was awesome! Biscuits and gravy was outstanding. But the best thing on the menu for us was the cinnabun plate. Id kick a couple of kids for that dish! Our waiter was outstanding! And chef Marisa is the glue to all of this! We will come back just for her! Outstanding all around! The outdoor seating for brunch was extraordinary! read more

I just had the worse meal, I've had in a long time. My order was wrong so I had to wait for them to prep the correct order. When that came it was still incorrect, but I kept it. The perch eas very over-cooked and the crab cakes were very dry, they fell to pieces. I will not ever rat at Truago again. The garnish, pic attached, we awful, don't even plate this. Terrible meal, terrible service, waste of my money. Never again.​ read more

Horrible. Got order wrong twice, fish was dry and inedible. The absolute worst cole slaw I have ever had. The service was terrible. Honestly the worst meal I've ever had for $130.00. The garnish was brown and wilted. Come on! Take some pride and leave it off the plate. Will never go back. Terrible read more

Truago - Trenton - Worst dinner ever - New American Near Me - Trenton, Michigan

We went to the restaurant after church on Sunday, three of us. Once seated the server was there to take the food order, but we hadn't even seen the menu yet. I asked for coffee and my friends had water with lemon. I'm not kidding when I say, after waiting a good while, we had to call the server over and we finally got our drinks. We ordered, but the server didn't know the menu so the few questions we asked were met with a blank stare. Once ordered we waited quite a while before food arrived, there was a question about my friends request for wheat toast dry( no butter) what she got was non toasted wheat bread. My other friend ordered wheat toast with butter and got white toast. I had the breakfast mac n cheese. When ordering what kind of eggs I wanted, I asked if the eggs would be on the side or on the dish, was told, on the side. When the food arrived, the eggs were on top of the dish, ( I had asked because I would have ordered different style of eggs if on top vs on the side) we asked for jelly for the toast and had to speak with two servers and a third finally brought some. When we asked for the check, the server hovered around us, while we were still finishing up, like we were going to run... All of this is to say that management is at fault for not training the staff. This type of service failure rests on management, but puts the server in a bad position. read more

Please note, I never ever write reviews... but this met the exception. Overwhelming disappointed! Please...please...please...spend your hard earned money at a different restaurant... this is unquestionably the worst restaurant I've been at in this price range and I dine out a TON. The table was sticky and filthy, the menus had crusted food stuck on them. No wonder the place was empty on a Thursday night. The onion chicken might as well been served in a trough... look at the pic yourself... my caprese salad was served with shredded mozzarella .... You deserve better... try any other place besides this one. read more
