Great fried chicken packed with a kick.
The food is simple yet tasty. Compared to most places the fried chicken breast here is juicier and tender with a slight crunch to the skin. So even picking the white meat, the bites are excellent.
If you like collard greens, upgrade one of your sides to it.
We’ve been to Gus’s a lot of time. Their food is consistent and it’s a great place for casual eats that hits the spot for 3 generations of our family.
They have an awesome 4 piece wing special with 2 sides for about $12. The kids meals are good value too and filling for our growing boys. We like th
Literally best fried chicken I’ve had in while. It tastes like a home cooked meal and felt like a warm hug. My boyfriend and I got the 4 piece tender meal with the red beans and rice and coleslaw. For desert, we tried the sweet potato pie and the chess pie. Both were delicious and tasted homemade. W
And here is outstanding it reminds me of my mothers, but it actually has some flavor! Very crispy I ordered two dark meat pies they were cooked perfectly. The coleslaw was similar to KFC, but tasted actually more fresh baked beans were regular old baked beans didn’t make my stocks go up and down but
Love everything about this place! Parking is tight, but not all the time, and there’s plenty of street parking. They’re originally from Kentucky, where we know they do chicken right. Ask for extra crispy, and definitely go hot if you can handle it. If not, you’ll still love it. Fantastic stuff. Neve
The service is pretty good, the chicken is good, but it was tougher/drier than expected, I would prefer that it was dripping with sauce. The only real issues at this location is the limited parking and the food is a bit slow coming out. That said, I did like it, but there are other places to go to
We had a great experience today at Gus's World Famous Fried Chicken. The parking lot is narrow with tight spots. Once you walk in, sit anywhere you like. Someone will come to the table and take your order. The food comes out right away. Not sure how they do it, but the chicken is light, fried to abs
When a restaurant calls itself world famous, it's either going to be trash or amazing. There is no in between. This was amazing. The best fried chicken I've ever had. Period. And the best fried okra, too.
The building is very hot, so be sure to wear your most comfortable pair of jorts.
I walked in here thinking this would be like you know regular chicken joint on Washington Avenue in Houston, if you know anything about the area, you know what I’m talking about. I was greeted at the door by Denae L., Who told me to take a seat and she would’ve be there to take my order, i’m like ot
Man the chicken had just the perfect blend of seasoning and spice! Side of Macaroni & Cheese was truly enjoyable.You won't be disappointed.
Our server was ELMA and she was Terrific 💯
My gf & I always ran by here multiple times but never stopped inside. Until now, it was delicious, small but quiet, & great service. Our waitress was Angie, a young girl from Honduras. Excellent service!!!
Went on a Saturday night, 10 min before close. Spent $37 for 2 plates and fried pickles. Atmosphere is nice. Staff suggested visiting between 3PM-6PM for quiet, quality dining.
Fried Pickles were amazing!! 10/10
Collard Greens 10/10
Mac & Cheese 6/10 (needs more seasoning and/or salt & pepper)

Best fried chicken I’ve had in forever!!! Waitress’s was very nice an courteous. I had the half chicken. With potato salad an Mac n cheese. Wife had tenders an dbl fries. Plus we tried the fried Okra. Everything was well seasoned and cooked to perfection. Wish I lived around here to come back everyd
Good quality juicy chicken. Has a very homely vibe. That being said, I think it is overrated or perhaps franchising has done that. Chicken needs more flavoring and has very minimal batter.
This place is amazing! Great, fresh food with tons of flavor. The chicken is perfectly seasoned and has a nice spice to it but it’s not overwhelming. The greens are tender and flavorful. The slice of buttermilk pie (with ice cream) was the best I’d had from a non bakery place. Definitely treat yours

Best ever today. Jennifer really took care of us. Everything spot-on AWESOME.
Noteworthy: My opinion. Jennifer would make a great manager. She knows how to get it done. Should be training others. Pure Excellence.

Chicken was delicious. Mildly spicy, super crispy/crunchy. Perfect temperature. Fries were good. Recommend the sweet tea, sweet potato pie, and highly recommend the chocolate chess pie (warm).
Not only is the chicken WORLD FAMOUS, buts probably the best fried chicken I’ve ever had! Consistently great tasting food, sides and beverages along with great service! The staff is always nice and friendly!
