Florida Stone Crab claws have been the cornerstone of Truluck’s menu for decades, and for a good reason: they are simply unparalleled in taste and quality. These sweet, succulent claws, often referred to as “the jewels of the sea”, are a one-of-a-kind delicacy that seafood lovers eagerly anticipate each season.
To ensure the highest quality and sustainability, Truluck’s collaborates exclusively with its fisheries and dedicated crabbing professionals in South Florida. Each day, skilled crews set out into the Gulf’s pristine waters, carefully set their traps, and harvest the crabs, which are packed in ice and swiftly transported to Truluck’s kitchens. In just a matter of hours, the claws are served at the peak of freshness to diners who appreciate the difference that a commitment to quality and sustainability makes.
Truluck’s prides itself on never serving frozen Florida Stone Crab claws. By focusing on sustainability, the restaurant supports practices that benefit both the environment and the local fishing community. As responsible restaurateurs, Truluck’s stands firm in its mission to offer guests the best-tasting, sustainable seafood that is as good for the planet as it is for the palate.
As the new Florida Stone Crab season begins, Truluck’s invites you to experience this fresh, sweet delicacy that embodies the essence of the sea and is the true highlight of their menu.

“At Truluck’s our commitment to serving only the freshest stone crab claws is demanding, but it’s essential to truly highlight the core value and simplicity of this region's delicacy. Stone crabs are a sustainable resource, and Florida crabbers take great care in preserving the species. Only the claws are harvested, allowing the crabs to live and regenerate. Each crab has two powerful claws for feeding and protection, and they regrow any claw that’s removed. However, since stone crabs are wild and unpredictable, supply can be inconsistent. We proudly partner with select crabbers who share our dedication to quality that our guests recognize and enjoy,” said Chef Thomas Dritsas, Truluck’s, Corporate Executive Chef
