Gus's World Famous Fried Chicken

So, the fried chicken (obviously) is fantastic. Like, really, really good. Each piece was perfectly cooked, the batter is slightly sliced and makes you do that kind of annoying eye roll thing at whoever you 're sitting with. The staff was attentive, borderline bored since it takes about 20-30 minutes per order, but we 're all friendly. The sides are good too. Nothing to write home about but who cares? One really weird thing, the side of fries is $6.50. While they 're good,this is an absurd price. It 's like one potato worth of food. A potato at Trader Joe 's is like, 69¢ or something. It 's not like they 're using some bizarre Scandinavian spud that only grows in the graves of fallen clan chiefs or something.They 're just hot and salty. I was absolutely gobsmacked. It 's like they put that in the menu as a don 't order this, stupid. I wasn 't upset, since I took the chance, but I had assumed that their medium was going to be like 5 Guys orsomething, sharable, for that price. Anyways, if they have a special, grab it, enjoy, and don 't order those damn fries.

This was my first time trying this place....what can you say??? NOTHING BAD, that's for sure! Staff was friendly and proud. Food was incredible. Chicken arguably the juiciest fried chicken i have ever had. Perfectly crispy with just a touch of heat. Sides were all very good as well. Potato salad is usually all mostly the same but this had some unique flavor. Food came out fast and as hot as possible, had to wait a few minutes to eat. Everyone in here seems very happy. Willreturn for sure

While visiting phoenix, we stumbled across Gus world's famous fried chicken. It was not. My family and I drop by and you would almost think that they weren't used to having guests, it was a stare down haha. We receded and it didn't take long to have our order taken because it wasn't a crowd. We ordered fried Green tomatoes, I can't front I thought they were delicious with the side of ranch. I ordered three wings, whole wings with a side of coleslaw and potato salad andthat's what on top of a piece of white bread that was kind of stale. My husband ordered four tenders, I cannot remember the sides, my sister ordered two piece dark meat with coleslaw and okra, my daughter ordered three piece tender with aside of macaroni and cheese and fries. My son ordered two piece white meat, his sides were macaroni and cheese and potato salad. Each meal was to come with either ranch or honey mustard,They brought out two, we were, we were a party of 5.Requested more ranch was told that it would be 50 cents, it dies the young lady that we never received it. Lo and behold it was still on my receipt. It's cool not going to make a fuss about it, will pay the funky 50 cents and never returnbecause it's not worth it anyway ???????????

I love this Gus apos; Chicken location! The food is always hot fresh the cashier Elaine was great!! Definitely check this location out for some amazing comfort/soul food if you apos;re in the downtown area! The Chocolate Chess *Slice pie is Fire too!!

I had the 2 piece chicken, greens, mac, and sweet potato pie. The chicken was juicy and the seasoning was perfect. This is my first time eating there... I normally get Mrs Whites.. or another place near by that food went down hill after they built the new restaurant and became a chain. But... Gus food is really good and fresh... I recommend eating there. My only complaint was that my sweet potato pie was so tiny. I dont mind a smaller portion but for $4... it wasnt worth it. But... overall slamming food.
