In laws: Cheap = Good

No prices on a menu is a dead giveaway that a place is expensive. It could end up being a bigger headache than it's worth.

What about some place like The Dancing Crab in Tenleytown?

You should take them to Baltimore. They will not be happy with the prices at any seafood restaurant in DC. And you will get a much better crabcake.

Or Joes Crab Shack in Fair Oaks. It is like Red Lobster, but depending on where they are from they might not have ever seen one before.

Eh, go to Red Lobster and gorge on the cheddar biscuits. When life gives you lemons, etc

If you must go to Red Lobster, don't. Better to drive out to Captain D's in Manassas. Better and cheaper.

Crisfields in Silver Spring sounds perfect to me

I haven't been there in a while but Grillfish used to be pretty reasonably priced. The food is better than Red Lobster.

Now I think, why not just buy some crabs and eat them at home over a newspaper-covered table?

A meal at Whole Foods can easily be as expensive as a meal at a low priced restaurant. Blech.

OP, where do you live?

OP, check out restaurant.com. They have ridiculously low priced restaurant vouchers. Use the promo code "travel" and you can get a $25 certificate for just $3. Most of the restaurants on there suck, but occasionally I find a good one.

Or, perhaps a white lie is the way to go here. Even if you choose a place that you don't have a coupon for, tell them you do.
