    Gus's chicken is always amazing it satisfies the taste for fried chicken right between mildly spicy chicken and very spicy hot chicken, Gus chicken is always fresh crispy, hot and delicious, prices are a little on the high side if you want white meat, however you will not be disappointed with the portions. Sides are simple, uncomplicated and tasty, pork n beans are unassumingly delicious, they don't look like much but are very, very good. They also serve alcohol at this location, which makes for one heck of a chicken dinner experience. On my last visit chicken was piping hot, however the sides could have been hotter, nonetheless still an excellent dining experience in a clean, cozy and restaurant with a southern feel to it.

    Great food and amazing atmosphere. The spice kick in every bite is yummy. Slaw, fried Okra and potato salad a must. Shout out to Mr Sincere for his hospitality and the post vibe lady by the cashier.

    I ordered Gus chicken white meat, but I got dark dry pieces,orka slightly burned.

    Whoa! Truly SMOKED meat, not 1/2 smoked, then fried...just smoked. This place came highly…read morerecommended by our local family. Started with their take on a charcuterie board- Sausage, peperjack and chedder cheeses, with pepperchinis for the table. It was a smack of smoke and meat that made me scream YES on the inside. It was also enough to share with 5 other people. For my main I ordered the dry bologna sandwich which basically meas a seasoned bologna with turnip greens and coleslaw. Delicious!! The sandwich was a nostalgic treat of which I added mustard and by the waitresses suggestion... the coleslaw. Not everyone offers this item and it did not disappoint on that soft bun and slightly caramelized edges. The greens were good ole country goodness. Traditional taste, seasoned well with meat. Also tried a rib and smoked chicken wing. The rib was good, but I've had better. It didn't fall off the bone like I'm used to and without sauce it tasted pretty bland. The chicken wing was absolutely scrumptious. It had a bold smoke flavor, tender, juicy, seasoned well and cooked perfectly. I'll be back for those. Sweet Tea is freshly brewed and was good. Banana pudding is homemade and was also very good. Service was kind, prompt and attentive. Pricing was ok...seems everything is going up nowadays. Not the worst, not the best. Ambiance was clean and typical of mist BBQ joints. Appreciated the fact that they had a wash area OUTSIDE of the bathroom. A vibe that sends the message of 'roll up your sleeves and dive in, this meal is gonna be messy' and I was there for it. Keeping this place on my list the next time I'm in the area.
