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.

Had our Paragon Title annual crab feast and it was awesome! I also have been to Bethesda Crab House with friends and family many times. The wait staff is as attentive as it gets. I have zero complaints. And great news! They serve hush puppies now! �
