Joes Stone Crab by the White House. Had one at a work dinner earlier this summer and was extremely impressed.
Agree with others who recommend Quarterdeck for crab picking, but having had their crab cakes. |

| Definitely Blacksalt in NW DC. Either from their restaurants or you can buy them raw in the fish store. |

My kitchen, because I can control the amount of binder and filler that goes into them — more crab, less cake.
Barring that, the Ebbitt/Clyde’s version is an excellent choice. |

+1 for Clyde's/Old Ebbitt/Hamilton. They are all the same restaurant group and have really good crab cakes.
I know people love Market Lunch but I don't think their crab cakes are that good. |
