Amber Lantern Restaurant

Oysters were undercooked, lamb was not a good cut, shrimp were small and lump crab was filler. So disappointed! Pre-pandemic the food was amazing. I gave it 2 stars for the martinis.

Now with prices that were pretty climbing for this restaurant, fantastic views comfortable atmosphere. You would expect to have minimal issues. Without rambling on the risotto was so extremely salty it was an edible and that tells you that the chef was not tasting it before it went out. The scallops were overdrenched in some plum sauce. And the ravioli was spinach was watery bland and completely unappealing. The Brie cheese appetizer was overly doughy and soggy. The pork chop was dry and flavorless. I can absolutely guarantee but I believe the shrimp was frozen the way it looked and the texture of it. There is no way you can charge these prices and put out this type of food. What I believe in my heart is that for some reason that Chef has lost his passion because you can tell that it used to be there and for some reason it has faded. I'm not saying he doesn't have passion at all. I'm saying it doesn't demonstrate itself on these plates....BUT.... What I will say is the "plating" in itself was pretty. And the wait staff was pleasant. I'm not here to be disrespectful I'm here to tell the truth because I love food I love eating out and I love a fabulous cook. No, everyone doesn't have to be a Wolfgang Puck, "but" they can sure have the passion like him ✌🏼✌🏼✌🏼

This place was lovely! The sunset outside was stunning, even during winter! The lobster bisque has heavenly and paired great with the homemade bread. I also tried the lump crab cake, and I left stuffed! What a great place for fine dining in Chesapeake, especially for date night! Thanks to all the friendly staff who made the experience so memorable! Will definitely be coming back!

Beautiful spot for a sunset dinner! Good cocktail selection - Blue Hawaiian was a good start as it wasn't too boozy. Artichoke and cucumber salad was unique and delicious. Gnocchi carbonara was fantastic, a must-try! Cheesecake and chocolate cake for dessert were awesome as well, chocolate cake was very dense and rich. Service a little slow but was nice to just relax and watch the sun set.
