24 Best Seafood Restaurants in Chesapeake

“My sister and I had lunch at Carrabba's in Chesapeake, VA yesterday. It was a very nice experience from start to finish. I arrived before my sister. I was greeted in a very courteous and friendly manner and seated immediately. Our server Tonya was excellent! She was professional, courteous and attentive. Service was prompt and the food was very good. I had the Johnny Rocco salad, which was fresh and tasty. Tonya took great care of us, and we appreciated the outstanding customer service. We'll be back!“

“Twisted crab chespeake square. Service awesome. The young lady that waited on us was amazed. AMAYA . Our food was hot and really good we love this place.“

“Wicker is an amazing place and Brittany is just as amazing!! Blue crabs were delicious and the crab cakes were yummy! The carrot cake, omg you'll never have one better then theirs!! Its a must go place“

“Yall, the food was Spectacular!! The music was good and the cashier was sooo personable!! The chefs were friendly, too! If you’re looking for some good home cooked food made with love, try this place out!! I had the porkchop sandwich, so yummy!“

“Justice was amazing! He turned what started out to be a bad experience, into a great one! Initially I was in the bartender Heather’s section and the hostess let her know about me and I visually seen her confirm that she knew that I was there. It was not busy at all. Nobody at the bar and only one other table in her section. I understand she was making server drinks as well but it was a little after 12pm and there was no more than 5 tables in the building. 12 minutes literally went by and I was not greeted at all by her so I went back to the hostess stand and asked to be moved to another section with a server who would be more available. Justice immediately came over and his customer service was top tier! He gave great food and drink recommendations and was very friendly and attentive. I have never been to this location before, I normally go to the VA Beach location but I will certainly come back and request Justice! My food is was great as well!“

“The staff is always friendly and knowledgeable, and I’m never disappointed in the food. If you like steamed oysters, I highly recommend theirs. They are always very tender and delicious!“

“If you haven't been to the Amber Lantern, YOU NEED TO 😍 This hidden gem is like the best kept secret. It's off the beaten path, so you wouldn't know you're even passing it, but frankly, I think that's what I like the most about it. I took hubby out for his birthday, and we had such a quiet and peaceful dinner overlooking the water. Our bill at the end of the night was surprisingly lower than we expected, and we ate many high end meal options. I'd actually go as far to say that I prefer this place over Butcher's Son. Our server, Kristi, went above and beyond and was incredibly genuine and down to earth. The menu provided a great selection that gave many options but wasn't overwhelming. The wine was out of this world! For appetizers we had scallops and fried oysters. I've eaten many oysters in my day, but I've never had ones like this. Lightly fried on the outside with that perfect crunch while the oyster itself was still very juicy! The scallops were perfectly seasoned. My husband had the special of beef tips while I had lobster tortellini. The beef tips didn't even require a knife, just melted right in the mouth. My lobster tortellini was out of this world. We ended with a dessert of tiramisu, homemade raspberry whipped cream, and Carmel sauce. WOW! It was light and moist but not drenched in liquid. We went around 6 and there were only a few couples, but by 8, it was booming! Many regulars from what I could tell. My husband commented that we are definitely coming back, and bringing others with us 😍. It'll now be our go-to for birthdays, anniversaries, and visits from family 😍“

“My son-in-law and daughter took us here for a family dinner. Excellent food and service. I had a fried seafood platter with oysters, clams, shrimp, haddock fillet, hushpuppies, green beans and spinach casserole. This can be ordered not fried. It wasn't at all greasy. The fried oysters were plump and delicious. The shrimp were big and tender. Loved the old fashioned style of seafood restaurant.“

“Best locals bar, love the staff.“

“I got 2 of the Shrimp and Fish combos. The Shrimp batter is delicious. The fries were cooked well. The hushpuppies were well seasoned. The fish was fried hard but pretty good. The coleslaw was a bit tangy but still decent. Overall it was an 7/10 meal and filling for $15/meal.“

“First time here and definitely will be back! Seafood burritos were delicious! Clean restaurant and fast service!“

“Our first time trying Thai food. Delicious. Ordered mild. Will probably do medium next time because we will be back.“

“Enjoyed the Company &the food“

“Food was fresh and delicious!
There are a few tables inside... I suppose you could eat there. But this place is really for takeout.
Great food, will be back again! The orange chicken has real orange in it! The pork fried rice is great!“

“Ordered through door dash and they made to order as I requested. However, I believe this is the last time I order boneless spare ribs....it's always meat and gristle. The General Tso chicken was crispy and tasteful, white rice fresh and chicken wings tasteful. Egg rolls were flaky.“

“Best ribs I’ve ever had! They were a full huge rack, with such a great taste and just fall off the bone. Truly finger licking good. Not only that, they are quite the bargain at only $19. They have become quite a commodity amongst the locals so hope they don’t sell out. The best kept secret in Chesapeake, well secret no more. You’ve gotta come try them. You won’t be disappointed. Tell them Bert sent you! The picture is a DOUBLE STACK of ribs…Full Rack!“
