About True Chesapeake

True Chesapeake offers a charming, Berlinesque ambience with very good service. The menu features creative uses of seasonal ingredients, although it may not always perfectly reflect what is being served. The restaurant's offerings like nettle and wild garlic soup are worth supporting, especially given the recent positive reviews. Guests have particularly enjoyed the variety of oyster preparations, with many noting that True Chesapeake delivers the best selections for oysters in Maryland. Highly recommended dishes include local oysters, soft shell crab, snake head fish in a delightful sauce, hand-cut pasta with clams, and Caesar salad with oyster croutons. The outdoor space is well-designed with greenery and overlooks a parking lot, providing a pleasant setting. The food is generally delicious, with oysters prepared in various ways like raw, fried, and Rockefeller, along with crab dishes and pasta. The restaurant also offers happy hour specials, making it a great spot for groups or couples to enjoy a casual outing. Guests have appreciated the outdoor seating, especially on summer afternoons, and the service has been praised for being timely and friendly. However, some have noted that the noise level can be quite loud, making it less ideal for those seeking peace and calm. Overall, True Chesapeake remains a popular choice for those seeking good seafood and a relaxed setting, with attentive staff contributing to a pleasant dining experience.
