I was in Memphis recently and asked the locals what some of their favorite places to eat were. They all had Gus?s on their list!... It was great advice! Some of the best chicken fingers I?ve ever had! The fried okra and fried green tomatoes were amazing too.And oh my that pie!!! We had chess pie and chocolate chess pie. I do believe it?s the best pie I?ve ever had in my life!!!!Definitely don?t skip dessert!!! Read more
My sister in law was visiting from out of town and was raving about it so I took her back. Best chicken wings in Memphis!!!. ... My greens were tender and flavorful and my fried okra was both crunchy and soft at the same time. Food was hot and flavorfuland from the front hostess to our server, both were so friendly. Got seated quickly and served quickly. Plenty of food for theprice. Read more
Lemonade, chicken, honey mustard. All slaps. The beans and coleslaw are pretty basic but still recommend. The Mac n cheese was... okay, tastes like it?s from a box at the store. Would still recommend. Temperature of food was on 1000 but still the chicken wasperfect and moist. Fast friendly service with a good atmosphere. Very clean establishment. 12/10. Read more
I was expecting the best fried chicken ever. While it was indeed good, excellent crunch it was lacking a bit in flavor for me.... The best thing I ate was the fried green tomato. I will say the service we were offered was VERY good. I wish I remembered ourservers name but great service. Read more
One of the few "destination" restaurants that actually lives up to the hype. If this isn't the best fried chicken you've ever... had, it'll at least rank in the top 5. The chicken is crispy, juicy and flavorful with a nice, satisfying kick at the end..TheMac and Cheese is baked and was very good as well. If you come here during the lunch or dinner rush, expect to wait a bit for atable and for your food. There will also be a clutch of takeout customers parading in and out. But, really, the food is worththe wait and the crowd. Read more
We waited about an hour to get a seat and it was well worth the wait. The chicken was crispy, hot, fresh, juicy, and flavorful.... It had just enough kick to it. The mac n cheese and beans were also delicious. Our service was quick and friendly. Gus's is amust-try. I'd definitely make a trip back here. Read more
An Urban Classic !!! Gus's Chicken is iconic food. If you are ever in Memphis you should take the time to enjoy this famous... brand of Fried Chicken. I make it a point to stop in at Gus's whenever I'm in Memphis for at least one meal. Gus's now haslocations all over the USA, so there is no excuse for a fan of fried chicken not to stop in and try it at least once. On thisfine fine sunny day in late June 2022. I drove into Downtown Memphis after visiting a customer in the area. I was seated rightaway and served almost immediately. The chicken was like always crispy, with a little spice and juicy and tender inside. Themenu is not overly complicated, and selections are limited. The menu is centered around the Gus's experience, Fried Chicken withsides. Simple, wonderful and tasty. If you are ever in a town or city with a Gus's Fried Chicken, give them a shot you won't bedisappointed !!! Read more
