    Recommended by my hotel clerk as a decent, non-chain restaurant. The coconut shrimp was pretty good and not skimpy. Pleasant staff.

    If you want good shellfish don't bother( Crab, lobster). We live locally and will not make it regular eatery.

    Anyone with this route should definitely take a moment and enjoy this gem. This should be the Next New National Seafood chain.

    Captain Jim's Seafood Buffet - Variety platter. Hush puppies were terrible, crab cakes not much better.

    If you like all you can eat seafood buffets great place to visit! Our waitress was super friendly…read moreand the young woman that took our picture was pleasant and very sweet. We had no wait and we're quickly seated. It's definitely got a tourist vibe to it but we are tourists so we fit right in.

    My husband is usually great at picking restaurants, so I'm not sure why I didn't check the Yelp…read morereviews before we chose this one--big mistake. The buffet was around $60 for all-you-can-eat crab legs, which sounded promising. Unfortunately, like many others have mentioned, the crab legs were cold when we first got them. They were overcooked and lacked flavor. We did manage to get a fresher batch later, which was better, but still not great. The promotional video online clearly had some Hollywood magic--what we experienced was far from what was advertised. Overall, the buffet was a letdown. Much of the food wasn't fresh, most dishes were bland, and a few were downright inedible. The crab cakes looked like sausage patties and were just as tough. The fried oysters were slimy and mushy--not the kind of texture you expect, even for oysters. I love fried oysters, but these were a hard pass. The crab-stuffed flounder was bland, though the stuffing tasted more like what a crab cake should taste like. The frog legs were surprisingly decent and did taste like chicken. Mussels and clams were a disappointment. Green beans tasted like they came straight from a can, and the mac and cheese reminded me of frozen Stouffer's. The peel-and-eat shrimp were good, but the raw oysters were a disaster--visually unappealing and smelled off. And yes, September is an "R" month, so they should've been fine. We asked for fresher ones, and what we got still didn't pass the sniff test. I love raw oysters, but I wasn't about to risk it. Vegetable options were limited: mushrooms (which were good), canned green beans, corn on the cob, and fried okra. Service from our waitress, was hit-or-miss and didn't leave a lasting impression. The atmosphere was awkward--no music, just the hum of kitchen staff talking. It felt more like a quiet cafeteria than a lively restaurant. While that made it easy to chat with our party, it also made the overall vibe feel stale. On the plus side, the restaurant was clean. But for the price, it wasn't worth it--and we won't be returning.

    Service was outstanding and with personal, funny attention from Brent. Time to eat (for slow…read moreeaters) was cheerfully allowed. The food was outstanding. Rich, flavorful, delicious. It's our first anniversary (yes, we're 76 yo but not dead yet) and we're treated to a delicious dessert. I don't eat desserts, ever, but.... . If you ever are anywhere near Gatlinburg, make a beeline to Chesapeake. Best choice EVER!!!

    My family came here for my birthday and I was very impressed with how well they accommodated us. We…read moretried to book ahead of time because we know things fill up during the holidays as well as it being a weekend. Unfortunately we got our days mixed up and our reservation was the following day. However the hostess told us it was not an issue and still seated us right away moving our booking to the correct day. The food came out in a timely manner and our server was very helpful as well. I ordered the seafood lasagna and it was very flavorful. Personally if I were to come back, I'd order another dish that was more filling. The server raved about how good it was and she was correct. It did have a lot of flavor to it. However it lacked seafood in the shells. At some points, I felt as though I was only eating shells and sauce with tomatoes unfortunately. Upon finishing our meal, unfortunately my father became ill after sipping water and going down the wrong pipe. We were so embarrassed seeing as though we were sitting in the middle of everyone dining. However the staff were so kind resulting us that it wasn't the first and dropping everything they were doing to tend to us with wet napkins and checking on my father. While we were deeply embarrassed, it really meant a lot to us that you all made us your priority in that moment and I greatly appreciate you alls service!
