| This noisy Houston transplant features all the finer things in life: seafood, steak and stone crabs. In its industrial-chic shell resplendent with lofty potted palms, expect a rowdy after-work bar crowd enjoying the extensive choices of wines by the glass and a school of seafood lovers at dinner huddled in cushy booths. First order of business: dig into the stone crab whenever it's in season. We prefer the larger crab claws---generally sweeter and moister than the smaller size---served with warm drawn butter and addictively spicy mustard sauce. And while an appetizer is nice, all-you-can-eat is definitely more affordable; so ask about the special nights. If keeping it simple, order the lemon butter-basted, grilled Naked Fish. Lightly fried, hot and crunchy trout is deservedly a signature dish, but if you aren't doing seafood, try Truluck's Dr. Pepper ribs or the juicy rib-eye. Overall, this is an excellent destination for seafood dining and socializing, with something for everyone. |
