    Our family had an amazing dinner at Chesapeake's! We highly recommend the shrimp chesapeake as an appetizer and the scallops and surf & turf for dinner. Drinks were delicious and the service was phenomenal. We will definitely be back the next time we are in Knoxville.

    Everything was as close to perfect as I hoped for! Vanessa was attentive , food service was perfectly timed and cooked as per our request. Manager on staff was present and made several adjustments pass-byes but thankfully his attention was needed. Great job, Harvest! Oh and we were greeted warmly and timely seated! A definite repeat is on order! Lesli ~ Knoxville Nov 2024

    Usually the food and service are perfect, but, the reason for the one deduction in rating is because the cooking oil used to cook the soft shell crab for the spider roll was overused and on the verge of rancid, causing the spider roll to be ruined and inedible. Other than that, the sushi was fresh and wonderful.
