Ernie's Crab House

Picked up three large crab clusters for $55 - about $18 per cluster. It's expensive but they steam them for you and can ask for the seasonings on the side. Really fresh.

OMG, love this place. Big crab legs. They got the hook up on crabs. Very tasty great customer service They have everything you need for a crab picking good time.

I drove here from NY just for the crabs and I'm glad I did. I bought a dozen of xxl blue crabs plus 9 crab cakes. The staff were so kind! They showed me the size of everything and answered all my questions. They also packed my crabs and crab cakes so it can sustain the long haul back to NY. I look forward to returning. Also, the place is definitely take out only. Just FYI.

I got there a little after opening and waited less than 15min. I placed my order for extra jumbo crabs and when I tell you they were soooo good they were heavy and meaty. The only thing I wish was different was the option to get them without seasoning. The place was very clean and they got me in and out all within 15-20min. That says a lot for a seafood spot. Will def be back. Good crabs, great service and decently priced.

Very good crabs enjoyed it very fresh took long because they are very popular but it was worth the wait I would drive to Maryland to get this crab again

I would highly recommend this spot if you're in DC/MD area. It was Super Bowl Sunday so naturally there was already a line as soon as it opened. It was my first time so I ordered a bushel of large crabs which were steamed right on the spot and delicious. The man who took my order was so nice and friendly. I'll have to go again to try the jumbo

The crabs were a decent size but they didn't taste good/fresh. It seemed they had been cooked either the prior day or in the am. I generally cook crabs myself, after getting them live from the wharf. I will not be going back. If you want good fresh cooked crabs, try Quarterdeck in Arlington. They cook them when you order them. Worth the 30 minute wait and they are large and tasty!

I stopped here because my husband had a taste for crabs and was in the area. Some of the crabs were good but I had quite a few that were mushy which was disappointing for the price I paid. Unfortunately I'm not purchasing any crabs here again. Ive had much better at other crab spot at a cheaper price.

Everything was crabs,shrimp and corn.I'd recommend this place to everyone .You place your over phone and when you there your is ready. Good service.

Fast, clean, courteous service. Crabs we're fresh and hot of the steamer. When you ask for large or extra large, that's what you get. They don't try to cheat you. I've tried many crab places in the DMV area and Ernies Crab House is the best!
