Gus Apos; Steak Pizza House - Brooks

This is the best pizza you can get in Brooks. Good serving sizes and friendly staff! Atmosphere is good as well.

I was in town helping plan next August's senior games and needed dinner. Can't say I'll be recommending this restaurant to the 800 people coming to town based on the $35 I wasted here. I got a steak sandwich. How do you mess up a steak sandwich? Well one way is to pour so much salt on it that it becomes almost inedible. What the heck was the cook thinking? Seemed like a decent cut of meat, but ruined by the cook. House salad consisted of lettuce and a few chopped carrots. Wow. French fries were barely acceptable. Four reviews posted here in ten years. Probably that's a hint on the quality right there. But for the younger folks at the bar watching the hockey, I was the only customer having dinner at 6:30pm on a Monday. Another hint.

This establishment is due for an updated review. That said, yesterday I had supper here and found the place overall an enjoyable event. I had a couple of Medicine Hat Brewing Company Blood Orange draft beers and a couple of shots of Jameson 's Irish whiskeys. I was going to order the Neptune steak but was warned against it unless I liked a lot of sauce. I was recommended to have the Peppercorn steak instead. The steak was a 10oz hand cut steak with baked potato and 3 stems of Broccoli. Now I will say this right away I 've had better steaks but also, i 've had worse. The real down side was the amount of peppercorns in the sauce that were also uncracked. The peppercorns added nothing to the sauce but instead were a unpleasant distraction to the meal. The processed bacon bits for the potato was unpleasant as well. The restaurant overall was warm and the staff were very friendly. Important too was the beer was cold. I will return but not for the Peppercorn steak. Cheers!

Did someone say steak? I had no idea where to eat in Brooks until I saw the large lit up sign that read Steak Pizza . How could I resist? I wasn 't disappointed in the steak either. I grabbed the mushroom steak which, yeah you guessed it, comes topped with a bunch of fried mushrooms. My steak was cooked pretty well and the mushrooms were delicious but I had a problem with the sides. To start I was provided a tiny salad that could barely be considered anything more than a bite . The vegetables I were provided was actually only corn without anything added to it. I also chose to have the baked potato which was undercooked and served with tiny amounts of the toppings that you would expect (with the exception of green onions which were not provided). Over all, if I really wanted a steak I 'd still grab another one but I would know what to expect of the sides and maybe try the soup or something. The service I received was great but the lounge wasn 't too busy. I hear their pizza is really good, so I 'm sure I 'll be back and try that later.

Took the family to eat at Gus' and we had a decent meal. Service is good fast and friendly. The restaurant is one side of a pub restaurant combo, and the menu reflects that. The kids had burgers they were pretty good burgers with enough toppings to make for a happy, sloppy meal. My wife had the ribs tender with a decent barbecue sauce. I tried a steak, which tasted good but was horribly overcooked. The food here is okay, but stick to the pub food, as the other side of the menu isn't as good.
