Seafood & Crab is located at 1936 14th Street, NW. As I’ve mentioned in the past this spot has one of the longest running “grand opening” signs in town. I’ve also noted that I thought crab was a type of seafood. Anyway, it’s time to dispense with such frivolous thoughts and ask the important question – how’s the food?


I’ve featured their great window before but never realized that the sign is pretty sweet as well. I’ve rarely seen a sign with rows of light bulbs around it like this one has. I’m not sure if you can read it in the photo but on the small red circle on the bottom left hand corner it says “Dot’s Home Cooking”. Sweet sign.
