About The Blue Crab

The Blue Crab is a wonderful family restaurant with a "hometown" feel. The friendly and attentive servers ensure a pleasant dining experience. The restaurant's crab dip is a highlight, featuring giant chunks of crab meat in a creamy and rich dip, served with soft and tasty bread. The steamer platter is also a popular choice, although it may arrive slightly cold. A standout offering is the all you can eat blue crab and snow crab, which many guests find delicious and steaming hot. The restaurant provides a casual and comfortable atmosphere, perfect for enjoying seafood. Additional touches, such as a bucket for shells and tools for cracking crabs, add to the experience. The menu includes items like the fush taco, a whole piece of fish in two tacos, which is a hit with customers. While some dishes may be a bit salty, the overall quality of the food is good. Guests have noted that the fried chicken is possibly the best in the DMV, and many enjoy the crab soup and all you can eat crab legs. The staff, like Mia B, are praised for being sweet and attentive, making the dining experience even better.
