    Fried catfish and onion rings
    Lotus H.

    Parking in strip lot with plenty of spots. Order at counter self-serve fountain drinks. Great friendly service- locally owned and fresh crispy catfish and delicious onion rings! Friend got beans&rice sides with her lemon pepper wings- also delicious and other friend loved the fish sandwich and crinkle fries too! Will return again when in the area!

    8 piece hot lemon peppers and sweet chili wings with cheese fries.
    Erica F.

    Food was fresh and flavorful. I got the wings and cheese fries. ( hot lemon pepper and sweet chili) both very good although I would've liked a little more lemon pepper seasoning on it a. My mom got the fish and shrimp she said the fish was good but the shrimp was slightly overcooked but still had a good taste. All in all I definitely will be coming back! I even reccomended it to some other friends that stay in the area for them to check it out. I also got the banana pudding and peach cobbler. Both were also good.

    Must order!!  1 catfish, 5 bourbon wings, 5 sweet chilli flavor
    Carla H.

    The place is located in a plaza with reasonable parking. I called in my order for pick up. They open at 11am daily and closed on Sundays. I order one piece of catfish and ten wing dings. The flavors I ordered was sweet chilli and bourbon flavors. I tried lemon pepper and it wasn't my fave. My order was hot and fresh. The sell daiquiris and got a sweet koolaid of your in the mood. It is small inside so you could eat inside it's a few tables. Service was good order was ready. Nothing bad to say but you must go order. It's worth it fully and the prices are reasonable for the amount of food you get.

    Grilled chicken salad
    Angelica J.

    HIGHLY RECOMMEND - The food was so delicious and fresh. We ordered the grilled chicken salad, wings and burgers with fries. The food is great and fast. The ladies taking my orders and serving were professional, kind and fast. We have been back many times since.

    Wing & Shrimp Basket
    Lunden D.

    Wife said her coworkers recommended this spot to her & I said we have to pull up today! We got the shrimp & wing basket. Lemon Pepper. Super good & the portion size is great for the price. Shrimp is lightly fried Wings are fried literally to perfection Lemon pepper seasoning sticks to the wings & has the perfect amount of seasoning. Crinkle cut fries are fried great & seasoned hella well. Oh yeah try there honey Mustard too. I am not a fan of honey mustard in general but there's is definitely good. You can eat inside but we ordered to go because they have seats it's just a little small. Shout out to the cook, I believe it was Rob or Roger, I just know it was a R! This is definitely a hidden gem! Pull up!

    Food is great! I had a chicken and shrimp salad and my bf had the fried catfish with sweet potato fries. Everything was fresh and priced well! I would definitely come here again. The service was excellent as well. The woman taking our order was friendly and provided great service.

    The Bar area

    We used the location to host a surprise birthday party for my father. They let us use their next door space which included a bar, hookah and a dj. The wings were top notch! They also have their own Daquaris! I will visit again and have wings for my next house party

    The fish and shrimp basket is filling. The food is fresh. I enjoyed the catfish and the shrimp. I like that the shrimp are a nice size. The atmosphere of the location is open and inviting. They have good customer service at the location.

    Loaded fries with chicken  it's delicious

    The loaded fries with chicken are bomb I highly recommend this place good price I called to place my order and in 10 minutes was ready

    House Salad
    Jazs M.

    So I've tried many of the options by this point, so I can give a fully accurate review. Pros: Good for Pescatarians, Food and prices on point, With and without meat options ! RED BEANS ! ( it's meatless ) !!! Daiquiris to go (Ask for the Wet P...sy....daiquiri) Lemon Pepper Wings are the BEST IVE HAD ! You'll enjoy it. May even have some CBD products, and hookah. Clean restrooms You'll come back... Cons:

    I think this place is focused more on Frozen Drinks than the food. The best thing was the Tv was on ESPN Food To Salty and way over priced.

Wouldn't let me change my order when the order had just got sent in and not paid for, I should've walked out then. All I wanted to do was take an eggroll and biscuit off but u can tell she was money hungry. She was very rude and just was rushing for the money. That instantly made my husband mad. Anyways not only was the lady, I think her name was Mama D rude she put the order in wrong. I was there at 3:50 ish so I was just in time for happy hour at 4, so I waited to order my drink. She didn't want me to order it to go for whatever problematic reason so I told her I didn't want it bc I knew I couldn't finish the margarita that quick. She told me my food was gone take wayyy longer so I said ok I'll have a drink while I wait. The food came out and I was like I knew that was gone happen. Didn't even take one sip. She had an attitude bc not she had to give me the to go cup. Mind u the cups aren't the same she filled it up half way and said it's on special like I shouldn't be questioning why it was half full. Still left her a tip bc I support Black Businesses. Order was still wrong. . Just rude for no reason. The shrimp were good. I ordered hot lemon pepper it was mediocre. She was also rude to the ppl that walked in telling them where to sit. Business minded ppl would've had it blocked off or something. Would not go back bc HOUSTON has good food all around and customer service is mandatory! Be humble!

Nice cozy place, perfect setting for fried chicken. I am sure they had other stuff, but that was the mission for this visit. Started with fried pickle spears, probably the best I have ever had, no joke. Perfect coating, taste and preparation. I like the spears vs the chips. Had the special which was to legs and two thighs for the price of the 3 pc dark. Beans and slaw. Ok, the chicken was great, moist, seasoned, very well cooked. I will go out of my way to go here for the chicken. Beans, canned with a little flavor added, nothing to brag about the slaw was pretty good. The fries on my friend's plate looked great. Perfect. We got here at about 1145, the place was busy. By 1215, it was packed, but they move people through and do a booming take out. Try it, you will like it. It satisfied my fried chicken desire and. Am set for a bit, but still want to go get more!!

I enjoyed their fried chicken, which for around $12, came with a thigh and leg, along with ample amounts of coleslaw and fried okra. Even I, as a voracious eater, could not finish all the sides. The chicken itself was beautifully fried in peanut oil, and truly one of the best, juiciest, fried chicken pieces I have ever had. This place is an example of simplicity at its finest. If you are in Houston and craving some down to earth fried chicken, Gus's is the place to go!

First, I noticed that the staff handling food behind the counter were not wearing gloves. Hygiene is important, especially when preparing and serving food, and it was concerning that no one appeared to be following proper food safety practices. At that time, the rotisserie was already being cleaned, which told me they had stopped preparing fresh chicken for the day. Instead, they were serving pre-cooked chicken kept in a warmer. As expected, this made the chicken dry and hard on the outside. I ordered the 1/2 dark meat chicken with yellow rice and Tequeños. However, I was given two small leg quarters and an extra piece of white meat--which I didn't ask for--all of which were extremely dry. The portion size has noticeably decreased as well. I was also very concerned to see them using spray cleaner near the food, which poses a risk of chemical contamination. On top of that, the Tequeños were extremely dark and tasted like they had been refried, nearly burnt. Adding to the poor experience, one of the girls behind the counter was playing around and massaging her coworkers while customers were being served. That level of unprofessional behavior is not something anyone wants to see while waiting for their food. I've always liked this place for its fresh rotisserie chicken, but it feels like DoDo's has started cutting corners on both food quality and cleanliness. Paying $19.52 for this meal just didn't feel worth it.

    Terrible service and zero accountability. I placed an online order, but when I arrived, the staff…read morehad decided to close early and refused to fulfill it. Despite having my contact information, they provided no courtesy call or cancellation notice. To make matters worse, the employee was incredibly rude and disrespectful, telling me it "wasn't his problem" and that I had to come back the next day for a refund. Save your time and money--go somewhere that actually values its customers.
