    They have a good selection of food and beverages. I ordered the walleye. It was lightly Parmesan encrusted, very delicious. I had a decadent key lime cheesecake for dessert. My husband really enjoyed his martini and we also shared a bottle of wine. Chester’s is very good.

    Diverse choices, all are good. Nice atmosphere. It is on my list of restaurants I return to regularly, especially with family because everyone seems to find something they like. My only complaint is that some of the seating is noisy, try to get a side room if that is a concern to you.

    The restaurant was nice appearing with low lights. The meal was as good to start with, unfortunately my meal was over salted and subsequently taken off my bill. Otherwise good service and quick meal.
