After a week of waiting for the flood of favorite crab house names and 
places to come in, I am unimpressed. Which leads me to comclude
that the internet-er are not as crabby as the general population
or are unwilling to part with their coveted, cozy crab places.

I got 3 responses: see below.


Name:  captain pells or fairfax crab house 
Location:  lee hyway. (fairfax) Near the big Movie theater
  if you want jumbos call ahead

First thing you need to do is get out of Virginia.  Head up to Baltimore
and pick just about any crab house at random and it will meet your criteria.

For specific recommendations, you'd probably be better off asking in
balt.general.  One non-recommendation:  stay away from Mo's Seafood and
Pasta Factory in (Baltimore's) Little Italy.

=============================================

Right off of 50 heading towards the Bay Bridge is Cantlers,
it is on the water off of St. Margarets Lane.  It is a bit far from
D.C. but worth the ride.  Give them a call for their address and directions
