    Chesapeake’s was an amazing dining experience. We went there for my husband‘s birthday. We had made a reservation, but decided to dine in early. And they were very accommodating. The river views are amazing. Our server, she was awesome and explained all about the menu. Food was delicious! One girl in our party has seafood allergies, and the manager came over and was very helpful in making sure she was safe. They presented my husband with a birthday card. Very nice and warm touch. Beautiful restaurant! Will definitely be back soon!

    The manager said this one was better than the one at Turkey Creek Knoxville. He was right. Great food, great waiter and great view of the Little Pigeon River.

    As always, their expertise in making some of the finest food continues to amaze us. This was our 10th time bringing others with us because we get so excited every time we come to Gatlinburg because we know we’re coming here for dinner. Their lobster is outstanding, their creamed spinach Marie is beyond delicious! My husband loves the broiled seafood platter so much that he orders it every single time. Nina was our server and she was phenomenal. I highly recommend asking for her to be your server for the evening. She’s very personable and kind. Keep up the great work! We will be back!

    This is a very popular restaurant in downtown Gatlinburg, but no parking and reservations are necessary! I had Swordfish steak that was cooked beautifully and had fresh onion rings on the side. A great meal, crowded restaurant but great service! Wife had shrimp skewers too much to eat but said they were delicious! Wedge salad also quite tasty!! Wine and alcohol selection to the moon! You will not be sorry you ate here!

    When my food was delivered to the table, the waitress accidentally dumped the plate onto the table. She took it away and cleaned up the table, and my meal was brought back a couple of minutes later. There’s no way they were able to cook a new meal in that timeframe. I had ordered grilled shrimp and it was undercooked. The server failed to notice that I had left all my shrimp uneaten.
