These crab cakes were a bit too rich for my taste, but they were still very good. I would recommend using less mayonnaise next time.

I've tried many crab cake recipes over the years, but this one is by far the best. The cakes are crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and the flavor is out of this world.
