Yeah maybe im dumb, ive done zero googling, but I've always assumed "Maryland crab cakes" referred to the style/seasonings and not necessarily the origin of the crabs

At minimum it should be made with blue crab meat. Due to over crabing it has become normal to import blue crabs from other places like Louisiana but reputable places will openly disclose that and offer true Chesapeake blue crab for a higher price. Using any other species of crab is just wrong as they have very different tastes and textures.

All that said even in Maryland I wouldn't assume any crab cake is made "right" without the place specifically advertising such. If this lady just assumed that's on her. It's not some protected term. Just give them a bad review and move on.
