Washington PostAugust 1, 2014It's as fascinating to watch the repartee between customers and Big Mama, Dickie's goddaughter, as it is to watch the deep-fried creations being stuffed into large Styrofoam carryout boxes. Read more
Mike ReidOctober 26, 2011Hole in the wall neighborhood joint.....but maaaaaan....they will make you some kinda GIGANTIC fish sammich, lolz. Whiting, hot sauce (optional), and have the cole slaw on that thang too. Trust me.
Chrissy JanaeDecember 16, 2014Far from ghetto.customer service is the best.(if your faithful customers)good people once you get to know them..Best fish ever🐟🐟🐟- Washington PostFebruary 28, 2013Get the fried whiting. Perfection is huge fish fillets haphazardly tossed between slices of white bread and doused in hot sauce. Read more
Adam MJune 12, 2010Hoarce and Dickie's rocks my world! Drunk and lookin for munchies at H Street at 1ish in the morning this is the place to go. You will not eat for several days after this.
Kenyona MisskennedyJanuary 4, 2014Fish and mac and cheese is so good they might be ghetto but the food speaks for itself
LaVarApril 17, 2012Watch out for Lil "honey-blonde" lady with the short haircut from behind the counter will run you over before saying "excuse me"!! Manners work
Uncle QuillisJuly 30, 2011Fish, chicken, and shrimp are awesome but the sides are subpar! Best Fish in DC..
Tamkia ThomasMay 15, 2017Let me add that there were two ladies outside in a BENZ apparently owners, who apologized for his behavior. However another worker concurred with what I said sighting he was old an grumpy.
Only place in NE to get a $6 meal that will last 2 days. (fish sandwich on deck!)
- Tamkia ThomasMay 15, 2017The old man with the 4 Teeth in his mouth was so rude. I couldn't believe it. I respect my elders but he was the worst. Customer Service classes are needed. Maybe he was having a bad day but RUDE RUDE
Patrick FrankJanuary 4, 2010Get a 6 piece fish sandwich then load it up with hot sauce, tartar sauce AND coleslaw. Its the classic and was featured on man vs food.
Not the best fish, not the best service, but hard to beat value. Cash only, so I'm no longer a patron.
Laura BruceSeptember 9, 2016They seriously give you tons of fish! However, USE YOUR EYES, their kitchen is filthy! Yuck! Oh & employees are unprofessional & even pretty rude.
Zach MartellJanuary 9, 2012Not so bad.. Zagat rated?? Ehh.. Customer service.. Two thumbs down!! Fish is good, shrimp is some frozen shrimp from safeway, sides are terrible.. I mean I can say ive had it..
Donna McJune 13, 2010Tourist tip: featured on Man v Food for their fish sandwich but don't overlook the yummy fried chicken! Skip the mac n cheese.
