What is your food budget? DC and Maryland are big on seafood, and in particular, crabs. 2 places that I would recommend in particular are:

BlackSalt (202) 342-9101 https://maps.app.goo.gl/REHWNp1VSpKcQMsH8

Ivy City Smokehouse (202) 529-3300 https://maps.app.goo.gl/hwWtAbvLvcVH4i3E9

I understand your desire to try the stereotypical places that you mentioned, but for the same price, you can get some significantly better food.

If you would like some good cheap mexican food, try Bandit Taco (202) 609-8127 https://maps.app.goo.gl/QnHSKd485WZdZc5N7 (they also have a place off Wisconsin Ave in Tenleytown).

For Pizza, another good option is Pete's New Haven Style Pizza (202) 237-7383 https://maps.app.goo.gl/3sYATjtfP9JTH8JJA

I don’t really have a budget as yet. Maybe I should make one? Thank you for the recommendations though! Will definitely try these out if I get the chance! And I would absolutely love to try crab!
