Horace and Dickies Seafood – Providing food for the soul since 1990

since 1990

OUR STORY

The first Horace and Dickie’s 12th Street Carryout was established in March 1990 in the heart of DC’s H Street Northeast corridor better known as the Atlas District. Richard “Dickie” Shannon and his good friend Horace began this business through hard work and dedication to serving the community with well-prepared southern style fried fish. Sadly, Horace passed away leaving Richard as the sole proprietor of Horace and Dickie’s Seafood. In memorial to Horace, Richard kept the name Horace and Dickie’s which has become a trademark in Washington, DC.

Richard’s passion to deliver the best fish in Washington, DC selected the best fish distributor to ensure his guests received fresh large fillets of whiting, tilapia, catfish, and croaker fish. Richard prided himself with this direct sourcing to give patrons the best taste each time they visited Horace and Dickie’s.

My food was excellent. The croaker was fried and seasoned very well. The potato salad was the bomb! The green beens were good, but a tad bit too much salt....
