Horace & Dickies Seafood

I went there the other day and the fish was banging!!!! The place was empty but the fish was fresh and well seasoned, and not over cooked. Its still one of the best fish spots in the area.

If you aren’t open till 6pm on Sundays like Google says , or 6:30pm as listed on your website, consider updating . This is the second time I’ve come by on a Sunday and the place is closed . Today I was headed there, and set to arrive at 5:07pm and I received a notification my order Door Dash order was canceled as I was pulling up.

Everything here felt thoughtfully done.

If I could give this place a negative 100 stars, I absolutely would. The customer service was appalling, and I’ll be sharing this experience across all my social media platforms so others don’t go through what I did.

On October 25th, I called in an order for a pan of whiting around 11:20 a.m. They told me it would be ready by 2:00 p.m. When I arrived, not only was it not ready—the guy hadn’t even started cooking it. When I voiced my frustration, instead of showing any professionalism or accountability, he gave me an attitude.

Trying to stay calm, I later called and spoke with a manager who was actually polite and understanding. She listened, apologized, and helped me place the order again. I arranged for an Uber driver to pick it up for me.

When the driver arrived, I called several times to let them know he was there, but every single time, the woman who answered immediately put me on hold without even letting me speak. After the fourth call, I finally said, “Can you please listen to me before putting me on hold?” Her response was dripping with attitude: “I have customers.” Then she hung up on me.

When I called back again and finally got her on the line, I asked to speak to the manager. She said, “I am the manager.” That completely threw me off—because this person sounded nothing like the manager I’d spoken with earlier, who was respectful and kind. This woman sounded much younger, and her tone was beyond rude, dismissive, and disrespectful.

To make matters worse, she started picking up the phone just to hang up on me repeatedly. It was childish and completely unprofessional. After being a loyal customer for years, this was the last straw. I will never step foot in that place again. Whoever that woman was, she has absolutely no business working in customer service—let alone representing the business as a manager.

To go order placed in person close to opening. Fries weren't fresh,crisp(some burnt) wings were flavorless. The catfish meal was fresh and enjoyed. First & last time for me.

Food use to be good, got order today and it was horrible the greens taste terrible the Mac n cheese noodles were over cooked and had no flavor at all the wings were fried way too hard. The whole experience was bad bad bad $90 wasted

The Camp Springs location appears to have been sold to new owners. The quality of the food and the atmosphere have bith declined tremendously. The place was empty, yet still appeared dirty. The taste of the fried shrimp was old & greasy. No longer German a favorite and I do not recommend.

So the food was not seasoned. A little bit of salt goes along way. The bathroom was. It clean. The employees tried their best but I would not recommend this place to anybody.
