Gus's World Famous Fried Chicken

I’m so glad we tried the world-famous fried chicken out of town because it was incredible! The skin was crispy and spicy, while the meat was tender and juicy. Absolutely delicious!

One of the standout features of this restaurant in the Memphis area is the portion sizes, which are more generous and filling compared to others I've tried. The only fried chicken that I found to be better was from the now-defunct Mrs. Winner's chain. If you prefer your bun on the larger side, Gus's is definitely the place to go. You can order various amounts of chicken served with white bread and two sides. Among the sides offered are baked beans, potato salad, coleslaw, spicy fried rice, mac and cheese, and whole jalapeños, although this location doesn't offer all of these options. Overall, the sides are somewhat underwhelming.

This restaurant is quite pricey—$60 for 12 pieces of chicken and two small sides is outrageous. I won't be returning. The chicken lacked spice and flavor; it felt bland. The clientele seemed to be older individuals who may not appreciate bold seasonings or tastes. I can't recommend paying their high prices for such basic food. Honestly, KFC and Church’s taste better, and I don't even think twice about those places. While the customer service was good, the food just doesn't cut it for me.

Eating was good, but. I bought a two-part white pickup order in this restaurant (germantown pkwy.) I checked my bank statement today and apparently the young white lady in register gave herself a tipp with the reception I signed. unacceptable, I wish I didn't throw away my quitting, which probably had her name. to the manager I have placed this order on 1st Friday afternoon at 2:30. my name is laura.

Found this place because of its high star review on yelp, plus it's conveniently close to my hotel near the Ikea. The breading on the bone in chicken and the tenders is really good it is crispy and has a slight spiciness. I think there's only one level of heat (so it's not quite like Nashville hot chicken) but it's still really good. My coworker liked it too. I'd recommend the Mac and cheese too.
