Gaucho Grill

This Argentinean eatery mixes juicy jumbo crab with a bit of lobster and tops the resultant golden-brown crusted disk with a Dijon honey mustard sauce. There’s also a decent crab cake burger (served at lunch only) with lettuce, tomato, Bermuda onions, and topped with a tangy tartar sauce.
