Fresh Seafood & Hand Cut Steaks
in Sherman IL

Offering the locals of Springfield & beyond the freshest seafood, hand-cut steaks, & more since 1983.

Since 1983, we have been serving some of the freshest seafood and tender hand-cut steaks that Central Illinois has to offer, delighting both locals and tourists from around the country. We take pride in our winning recipes that keep our customers coming back for more!

We achieve this by selecting only the freshest and finest vegetables, steaks, fish, lobster, crab, and shrimp available.

What Our Customers Are Saying

Took my wife for her birthday dinner. Her favorite seafood place. We both love the dishes. I would highly recommend.

Brian C.

A well known gem in Springfield. Family owned and operated. It's in an old mansion and has so much history and charm. The food is amazing. Almost everything made in house. They can accommodate large parties or a party of one. They feature a full bar and a large dinner menu. If you are looking for good food and service stop in.

Tonya P.

Absolutely fantastic quality and service! Drew was our server and took really good care of us. Beautiful historic atmosphere and look at the portion size!!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Christopher R.

Waitress was awesome!! Best service we've ever had anywhere!! Thank you for making our Valentine's evening very enjoyable!

Rick L.

This is a must-stop whenever I go to Springfield. I will be honest, when you walk in there is nothing modern about this place. It is a place that still has a supper menu. But this place packs a punch when it comes to taste and value. I still can't believe all the food I get for under 50 bucks and it's good food!!!!! My friend and I got the Mates Platter.

Veradis P.

overall experience was good and their food was excellent. I recommend Chesapeake highly.

Dorhn G.

Went for a family birthday party. There were 21 of us. Our waiter did an excellent job taking care of us and kept us refilled and with anything we needed right on time. I got the whole fried catfish and it was amazing. It had a great flavor and the fish was so tender it was almost creamy. I look forward to going back there soon.

Nicolas J.

Great food. The interior design is nautical which I completely love! They have Alaskan king crab, lobster tails from different areas, clams, shrimp, cod, steak, and pasta in so many different ways. They have a kids menu for your little ones too! Friendly staff.

Andrea S.

Have eaten here before and keep coming back. I love seafood and they have a good variety to choose from. Staff is polite and professional. Was busy even on a weekday so that has to say something positive!

Norma O.

I enjoyed my dinner and the service was excellent and I will be back. The two waiters did a great job for the size of our group. I think it was 25 people. I had seafood platter, salad with french dressing and baked potato with butter and sour cream. Thanks again.

Annie B.

Our family has been going to Chesapeake Seafood a few times throughout the year for a few years. Most all of our experiences have been good (food and service), and they have reasonable early bird prices. Upon much research for a place to host a rehearsal dinner, we chose Chesapeake Seafood House. The manager provided us with some guidance regarding the room to use for our event and the menu offerings (food and drinks). Both the food and service were excellent!
