About this business

Maryland is well-renowned for crabs-plucked fresh from the Chesapeake Bay and steamed with a unique blend of spices. Brown paper covers the tables and the only utensils are small mallets and knives-and your fingers! Hard-shell crabs brought fresh from the steamer to your table are, naturally, the specialty. Crabs are seasonal; be sure to call ahead and check if they are available and to make a reservation. Crab cakes and steamed shrimp are on the menu when crabs are out of season.

The best to ever do it! The crabs at Bethesda Crab house are like no other! Yen’s experience creates a flavor like no other! As a lifetime Marylander and crab fan I highly recommend Bethesda Crabs. For sure the best crab house in the DMV.
