You know a place is good when you and your wife barely speak to each other after the food comes. The only thing she said to me after that point was “Thank God we came here”. That pretty much says it all.

I've been here a couple of times before to pick up food for others, but I never decided to try it for myself. On a day off when I had nothing else to do, I finally decided to see what it was all about. As...I entered the restaurant, it was bustling with customers and families, which is always a positive sign. The lively and welcoming atmosphere greeted me, and I noticed that everything was impeccably clean. When I approached the counter to order, the young lady assisting me was very friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. I opted for chicken tenders, baked beans, Mac & cheese, and fried okra. The fried okra was hands down the best item I tried. It was incredibly fresh, not overly salty, and had an amazing crunchy texture, making it the perfect side dish. However, I didn't enjoy the other items as much. The baked beans had a good flavor but reminded me of canned beans. While the chicken was juicy, it lacked the desired crunch, and despite being labeled as spicy, it had no heat whatsoever. As for the Mac & cheese, it was my least favorite. Although the noodles were perfectly cooked, it had a distinct boxed macaroni taste. Adding a cheese crust on top and thickening the sauce slightly would enhance its flavor. Overall, my experience was decent, and I would consider returning. However, next time, I would choose the dine-in chicken and perhaps just the okra as a side, as the flavor profile didn't fully meet my expectations.More
We visited this restaurant based on a recommendation from someone who used to live there . Luckily we arrived before the major lunch rush. We had 2 pieces of dark meat and 3 tenders with slaw and beans. All of it was very good, tender...and moist. The waitress told us the pie offerings and we decided to try the pecan pie warmed up. It was a really good pecan pie (my favorite pie). One downside is that it is difficult to find parking.More
First time here. Went for dinner with a friend. We both had the tenders which were excellent with just a bit of spice. Fries were great. No BBQ on the premise. Honey mustard or ranch. Thats it. Slaw was decent.
I was here with the family last summer and had great fried chicken and was looking to experience it again. I arrived at the restaurant and was told to take any table along the wall, there were about 12 other people in the restaurant. This...was on Thurs 19th Oct lunchtime. I waited for the waitress to come clean the table (dirty from previous guests) and take order. She appeared to be hiding in the kitchen, and eventually came my direction, I smiled at her expecting her to be coming to me, but instead stopped at the table next who asked for their bill, engaged in a conversation with them while waiting to pay. I was looking directly at her, ready to order and she looked at me, turned around and went to the kitchen. There were no other staff around. She stayed in the kitchen another 5 mins (now 15 mins since I entered and nothing), I saw her look around the kitchen door and waved at her, she looked and then went back into the kitchen. At this point I left. Never has a 6ft, 230lb guy been so invisible. The owner/management need to do something about this sullen individual, as I doubt I'll be back.More
Awesome chicken and very friendly service. Chicken is always served hot and just the right amount of spice.
We just stumbled upon this place. We ordered our chicken pieces a la carte, and also ordered fries. It was all outstanding. The chicken pieces were large, the skin was crunchy and the meat moist. There was so much food we had to leave some...of the fries behind. It is a very informal place but very good. People wait in line for tables -- they know it is worth the wait. Highly Recommend. Wish we could give this 6 stars.More
We came here for lunch on a weekday afternoon, and it did not disappoint! I had the three-piece white and she had the tenders and they were simply excellent. Slightly spicy and very juicy. The sides of Mac 'n Cheese, Greens and Cole Slaw were...all excellent as well. Our server Aaron was at the top of his game, and this was a perfect lunch. We highly recommend!More
If you have never tried Gus's fried chicken, you really need to! Always great service. Nice canned beer selection. And of course, great fried chicken. Plates come with your choice of 2 sides.
We are from out of state. Seen the reviews and decided to try it. Was seated and waiter came and said he would be right back to take our order. NEVER CAME BACK. If he was so busy he should have asked someone else to...take care of us. Waited 20 minutes more a waitress came and asked if we had been waited on. We said NO! What pissed me off was the waiter went to another table and took their order. So we got up and left. Shame on that waiter. 1 bad waiter makes it bad for everyone who waits tables.More
For some reason, the Dallas, TX location (2904 Commerce St. Dallas, TX 75226) wasn't coming up.. So I wanted to be clear that i'm not reviewing the Austin, TX location. I've never been. This is a Dallas, TX location, review!!! First of all, THIS location...(2904 Commercial St. Dallas, TX 75226) is a very unprofessional environment. I am posting this after giving this place, not one, not two, but three chances!!! Why? The chicken is actually very good. I'm sure it's just THIS location!!! First of all, the manager is cold and rude when you enter the restaurant; Does not even SPEAK. So naturally the waitresses aren't pressed to give good customer service!!!! I was thirsty the whole time, EACH time. They never came back to refill my water. The last two times, my order was not put in correctly. Being pressed for time, I ate it anyway. This time was no different, just a different order. Rude, unattentive waitress. This time another manager(she said she was the manager, anyways) talked to me. She was completely unconcerned about the bad waitress experience; Even attempting to make excuses for her!!! She didn't offer me as much as a jalapeno pepper, for my terrible experience. NEVER AGAIN.More
Had a half chicken, slaw, potato salad, beans and mac n cheese. Everything was okay but nothing special. Good staff and atmosphere but nothing to make us come back.
Fried chicken will entice me in almost every time. I was greeted warmly by staff, the person who waited on me was friendly and helpful. I ordered 2 chicken wings and one tender with honey mustard. I didn’t order any sides, the chicken filled me...up as it was. It was super crispy but the chicken itself was not dry or rubbery as can happen with chicken. It was yummy!More
I stopped in to try the fried chicken. I started out with an order of fried okra - and it was good. I liked the little bit of hot & spicy heat on my 2 piece chicken plate. The staff was very friendly and helpful.
Excellent chicken, they say world famous, and I couldn't find a bad thing to say. Has a little spice and juicy is the only word to describe it. Truly superior to all of the fast-food chicken houses for the same price. No contest where you...should get your chicken. Spend the fifty cents and get the sides you want with your chicken. the mac and cheese, slaw and beans were all excellent. Bottom less soft drink is nice even if my waistline didn't need it.More
