I moved to DC from Boston, so I figure I'm qualified to address
this question. :-)

I haven't tried any seafood restaurants here, but the best fish I've
had in DC was at the Austin Grill (Wisconsin near Calvert St., NW).
I had grilled salmon with tomatillo butter, which was grilled to
perfection, and delicious.  It was served with tasty accompaniments
of cilantroed rice and sauteed squash.
The salmon was a special.  The specials change frequently, and they
might not have fish every day.  Prices are reasonable; I think the
salmon was about $13, and most of the things on the menu are less
expensive (and not as delicious, though still enjoyable).

I considered Legal Seafood to be too expensive, but that could be
due to the fact that I was a student when I lived in Boston.
