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.

Weekend visit to B'more and nobody had crabs in season. Went to D.C. and was determined to eat some crabs. This led us to Bethesda Crab House. Large crabs hit the spot.
