My wife likes to try potato salad but she is also quite picky about it. After discussing it with the employee- she decided against it since she said they didn't make it in house. But when we got our food brought to our table- there was a side of potato salad! She explained we didn't ordered it but the employee- same person who took out order- said the owner wanted you to try it and it was on them! Very impressive customer service! Not only was the first woman very accommodating as we tried to figure out what to order- she also recommended sauces and we really enjoyed the Sucky avocado ranch she said was her favorite. The chicken strips and the queso were the stars that day. The chicken strips were very juicy-- not at all Ike regular fast food strips. The queso was the same topper to the Filthy fries and mac and cheese. It was very good- def not from a can. The owner was very nice- he came out and chatted with us a bit. Told us a lil bit of his history with the business. That's what stood out to us- how friendly and generous each employee was there. Definitely recommend. Definitely will be back.

Have seen this place many times but never have stopped. Let me tell you, we will definitely be back!! Let's start with the menu. They serve large chicken strips and awesome hot dogs!! They have a few more items but my wife and I didn't really pay much attention. We didn't come here with intentions to give a review. The chicken was not only big pieces but they were very tasty. Both the fries and chicken were hot!! The Texas toast looked great but my wife ate both pieces. So I can not say how the toast tasted. Lol We also got their "Wicked chili dog"!! Lord have mercy this chorizo chili was awesome!! And the dog it self was beyond a normal hot dog. It was a sausage maybe the chorizo. But it was very tasty. People!! Don't sleep on this place!! Go give them a try!!! We will be back!!

There are meals you enjoy... and then there are meals that make you pause mid-bite and question…read moreevery other fried chicken decision you've ever made in your life. Gus's World Famous Fried Chicken? Yeah. It's that kind of place. We went for the chicken sandwiches and I need you to understand--these were not just "good." These were ruin-other-places-for-you good. Crispy, juicy, perfectly seasoned... the kind of sandwich that makes you immediately start planning your next visit before you've even finished the first one. Now let's talk sides, because they did not come to play. Coleslaw (mine): fresh, balanced, actually flavorful (which is rare because let's be honest... slaw can be a gamble). This one? Solid win. Fried okra (my friend's): I am extremely picky about fried okra. Like, I side-eye most of it. But THIS? Golden, crispy, not a hint of that weird slimy nonsense. It was so good we ordered more to take home... which tells you everything you need to know. And because we clearly make excellent life choices, we shared a chess pie for dessert. Rich, sweet, buttery perfection. What really tied it all together though? The service. Warm, attentive, and genuinely welcoming without being over the top. The kind of service that makes you feel taken care of, not rushed. Bottom line: Every single bite was worth every penny--and honestly, I would've paid more and still walked out happy. This is one of those spots that doesn't just meet expectations... it casually exceeds them and then sends you home thinking about it later like a crush you're not over yet.

I love the way they prepare their chicken; they are seasoned very well with a little bit of kick to it. They are not heavily breaded. I have had chicken tender, breast and wings. The size of the chicken is bigger than their competitors'. I find their meals are good value for your money. As far as the sides I have tried Cole Slaw, Mac and Cheese and Potato Salad. Their potato salad is my favorite, so I always upgrade to that. The Mac and Cheese are good too. The wait staff are very friendly. I received an excellent service from Emily from the time I walked in until I received my order.

Whip My Soul! EPIC…read more Look, this place is completely outstanding EVERY SINGLE TIME. The owner is 100% hands on. He takes your order, and when he's free'd up he walks around the dinning room and introduces himself to everyone. Generally and heartfelt with your experience with his food and dining experience. I've come here a few times, and it's 100% consistency with service, care, food, cleanliness, and it's not easy, this place is always packed, always a dining room full of people, friends, family, just an amazing vibe here. I take my out of town friends here every time they come to visit. Normally I get the catfish, cause I love it so much, and I just crave it when I come, but this time I forced myself to try something new. Let me tell you it didn't disappoint. Their wings are outstanding too! Perfectly seasoned. Hot fresh, seasoned like an old family secret recipe. I also got 2 sides with the 3 piece chicken wing order. So I got Mac & cheese, of course. It's so rich and creamy, really one of the top 2 best Mac & cheese I've ever had. My second side I got was their yams. I can't explain it, but it just smells like Christmas and tastes like Christmas. They're a food group on their own. You have to, no you MUST get their yams. They're just epic. I'm already thinking about my next visit to Whip My Soul.

The greens were tasty but over cooked. I also feel the same way about the cheesy grits. Great in flavor but they had the texture of a porridge rather than a grit. The texture was very smooth, almost thin and slimy and not gritty like your typical grits should be. I asked to exchange the grits for the yams since I did not care for them. That request was honored but not without giving me a full and un-welcoming disclaimer about how they don't typically do that. Even made me get up and go across the room to the window to tell me this. When the server lady could have simply brought it to me. Other than, I would have given his place 5 stars even with my not caring for the greens and grits.

She really enjoyed her food and normally nothing is hot enough for her. That is really impressive. The restaurant was clean and they have an outdoor area to sit at if you want.

Food received -- A great reminder why we don't eat at KFC anymore. Cold dried up chicken and fries (did not receive my mashed potatoes - did get a spoon though), and a crushed biscuit (it was soft). I can't imagine eating leftovers that looked or tasted like this, let alone what I paid for it. My daughter ate hers, I fed mine to the dogs and made Ramen instead.

I have been to this restaurant several times before and it has always been one of my favorites. The…read moredrinks were amazing and the food was consistently great. Last night I finally brought my husband to try it after hyping it up for so long, and unfortunately it was a huge disappointment. Things have definitely changed. I was really looking forward to the chicken fried chicken, only to find out they were completely out of mashed potatoes. For a place known for chicken, that was surprising. So I ended up just sharing some of my husband's meal and our appetizer. The cornbread has always been something I rave about, especially with their hot honey. This time it came out dry, and the hot honey had no heat at all. It just was not the same. My husband's fried chicken was honestly the worst part. It was burnt, with a layer of black under the breading, and tasted like it had been overcooked to the point of being charred. There is no way the kitchen did not see how dark it was before serving it. That said, his sides were still great, so at least part of the meal was enjoyable. Our friend's chicken sandwich was not terrible, but it did not taste fresh like it used to. It felt more like something frozen and heavily breaded instead of the quality we had experienced before. One positive was the service. Our server was wonderful, and the rest of the staff was kind and attentive as well. I accidentally spilled my drink right after it arrived, and they were quick and gracious to replace it even though it was completely my fault. That was very much appreciated. The other issue that really took away from the experience was the atmosphere. Halfway through our meal, a large group of adults sat in the courtyard and had their children sit separately at a table right next to us, while their parents remained in another section of the patio. The kids were clearly having fun and playing games, which is great, but they were also very loud and screaming just a foot away from our table while their parents enjoyed quiet drinks elsewhere. There were completely open sections of the patio farther away where they could have sat, so it was frustrating that they were placed right next to the only other table of adults trying to enjoy a night out. It ended up being very disruptive and took away from what we had hoped would be a relaxing evening. Overall, I was really disappointed. This used to be a place I highly recommended, but after this visit it feels like the quality and attention to detail have slipped. I truly hope they can get back to what made them so great before.

We both subbed beans for mac and cheese. My friend appeared the most jolly I'd ever seen him and thoroughly enjoyed the chicken. I really liked the mac and cheese, and I liked the chicken as well. The coleslaw was decent, and I often don't like coleslaw. The skin was tough and too much for me, but the food itself was great. The two piece was substantial for me, and the four piece seemed to be a little too much even for a big boy. The restroom floors were suspiciously very wet. I feel like they could provide some moist towelettes because the chicken was very greasy, and we had to just pour water on the napkins. Downtown street parking was a struggle, but I found 2/3 of a spot close by that I decided could count as a spot.

I just wish the chicken pieces had been a little bigger! Overall, I had a good dining experience. The restaurant was clean and cozy, the service was great, and the chicken was delicious!
