When I want a bite and don't want to cook (rarely) and I'm in town I will stop and get a bite to eat bc I will be satisfied. It is definitely a vibe and of course the service is great. I love coming home (in town) and interacting with my people . There's nothing like my New Orleans people. As long as this place is around we will visit when we are in town.

Sigh. Disclaimer: the food just isn't the same anymore…read more My parents live on the Westbank, so whenever I come home to visit and stay more than a few days, I always make a stop here, specifically for their stewed okra on Tuesdays. I hadn't eaten here in over a year, but two years ago that okra SMACKED. It was so good I had to stop myself from eating the entire container in one sitting. This time, though, it tasted completely different. Honestly, I mostly picked over it. It did have a decent amount of seasoning meat in it, which I appreciated, but the flavor was just off. My mother agreed. I also ordered the stuffed catfish, and unfortunately the catfish tasted almost entirely like blackened seasoning and nothing else. It used to have much more flavor and balance than that. The yams were fine, and the seafood dressing tasted the same as usual, but I was really disappointed because the okra was always the star of the show for me. Since that's no longer hitting the same, I honestly won't be back. And mind you, this was after standing in line for ~90 minutes. I will say the workers still have that Southern hospitality, and the customer service itself was pleasant. But while standing in line and watching the workflow, it was easy to think of multiple ways the business could improve efficiency. I'm honestly surprised those issues haven't been addressed yet. If you want to go for the experience, then sure, go for it. But don't expect to be blown away. For me, the wait time, prices, and food quality just didn't live up to the hype anymore.

I decided to stop in and grab a small Crawfish Stew and Bread Pudding with Whiskey Sauce for my post workout reward (Don't judge me lol). It was on from the first bite. That stew and bread pudding had me dancing. I immediately told my coworkers about it that night! The very next day, we ordered lunch here and I got the Bell Pepper plate with Crawfish Stew and it comes with a dessert. Today's dessert was Apple Pie and I took my coworker's cornbread. The bell pepper was not boiled enough to break with the fork and not seasoned enough to my liking, but it was still very good. The crawfish stew was the star of the show! Seasoned well and full of crawfish, potatoes, and smoked sausage. The Apple pie was so delicious, all it was missing was a scoop of vanilla ice cream. The corn bread was very dry, it definitely needed some honey and butter. Now I will add, the lady who took my order today was not the best over the phone. She could not give me my total, and could not tell me what the dessert of the day was, and even hung up in my face. But, in person, she was much better. Also, be ready for at least a 30 minute wait. This is not fast food, it is home cooking! Overall, this is a super cheap spot to get a lot of food. The pepper plate was $18 with taxes. Perfect for that home cooked meal you've been craving when you don't want to do the cooking. I'm going back to try more items!

The fried chicken was the star--served hot and fresh, perfectly crispy on the outside, and incredibly juicy on the inside. Just good, classic Southern fried chicken done right. The sides were great, but the fried green tomatoes are a MUST. They were fresh, crispy, flavorful, and had the perfect crunch without being greasy. This was also my first time ever trying chess pie, and WOW! It was absolutely to die for--rich, sweet, buttery, and the perfect ending to the meal. The service was friendly and welcoming, and everything came out fresh. Sometimes the best food spots are the ones you just happen to stumble upon. Great fried chicken, delicious sides, amazing chess pie, and friendly service. Definitely a 5-star New Orleans stop!

The crunchy exterior, juicy meat and hearty sides following by a slice of perfect pie washed down by a beverage of your choose your choice-choo-choosing makes it evident why the chicken crossed the road- to get to Gus's You order at the counter and in my case, take a seat and enjoy one of the many tables in an open seating area it lens itself from one person table, top to multiple people in larger parties. You sit and chill and it's brought out to your table which I think is a nice touch of customer service. What happens next is nothing short of Magic.

You've never seen a soul / Chinese food hybrid like this. Try their sweet and sour chicken combo--it's so succulent, and it melts in the mouth. Their divine egg rolls, meat pie, and the friggin amazing poboys with dollops of mayo are heavenly. In fact, you should just buy out their whole kitchen for catering cause i kid you not, when you eat here once, you'll come crawling back for more. Mark my words. Also, if youre getting sides for the meals, order the fried rice and/or noodles. My friends always crave their red beans and rice, or the seafood okra gumbo. Thinking about them makes me drool. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm heading out to get me some fried crack.
