The three course Prix Fixe menu includes and appetizer, main course and dessert. TRU Collections provide more of a taste-testing opportunity to sample six or seven dishes in their seafood, vegetable or dessert collections.
Depending on the TRU collection that you choose, you will have a chance to dine on delectable dishes such as Roasted Beef Ragout, Peekey Toe Crab Salad, Gulf Shrimp an Jonah Crab Ravioli, Braised Manila Clams and even Chocolate Mousse Crêpe with Banana Bisque.
Part of the art at TRU is the use of alternative surfaces as serving dishes. One example of a alternative serving surface is TRU's famous Caviar Staircase. The Caviar Staircase is a miniature staircase made of glass. An elegant caviar is presented on each of the eight steps.
