Best Seafood in the area. Crabs are always heavy and delicious.
The best crabs in the DMV. The staffs are very friendly and the crabs are always meaty and good. I gave up Ruff and Ready for Ernie’s with no regrets. ??
I have been going to Ernie's for over 30 years.

Ernie's Crab House is a popular spot in the DC/MD area, offering an excellent dining experience. The restaurant serves large, juicy, and hot crabs, which are steamed to perfection. Customers love their crabs and shrimp, describing them as flavorful and meaty. The staff is friendly and nice, making customers feel at ease. The restaurant is known for its good service and selection of seafood, including extra jumbo crabs and shrimp, which are considered worth the slightly higher price. Visitors should note that the hours may vary, so calling ahead to verify is recommended. Parking can be limited, and since it is a carry-out crab house, the atmosphere is casual and straightforward. Customers have experienced both great and average crabs, but when they are good, they taste excellent. Overall, Ernie's Crab House remains a go-to place for seafood lovers in the area.
