    Honey hot with lemon pepper sprinkles
    Christin W.

    My go to anytime I'm craving wings! Great customer service and never too long of a wait.

    Dominique W.

    They do require customers to wear a mask, but the building is so small and they had way to many people in the building waiting on their food. These were some of the worse wings I've ever had. They failed to seasoned the wings. If tasted like chicken with absolutely no season just floured and fried. I asked for seasoned wings and it didn't have flavor at all. I included a picture of the "seasoned" wings I got. The fries were bland and soggy. I wasted $12 for nothing. I wouldn't go back or recommend this place. Edit: turns out I have Covid and loss my sense of taste and smell. I will give them another try in a few weeks or so. However, I requested seasoned wings and they barely put in of the action seasoned flavor on the wings. Take a look at the photos.

    Ordered a 20 piece wing (10 lemon pepper, 5 honey hot, and 5 season) was originally quoted a 30 minute wait time. Because I know how wing spots can be, I gave them an extra 20 minutes. Upon arrival my order STILL wasn't ready. The cashier/manager asked me to give them 15 more minutes...15 minutes pass still no food and asking for another 5 minutes. I did not receive my order until close to 7:30 when it was placed at 6:11. Upon getting my food, the dry wings have little to no seasonings on them so I request more. Immediately there was a noticeable change in their attitude (it declined). My family and I make it back home, and When my mother opens the foil she immediately states that the grease smells old and burned. I chunk it up to possibly having half of the wings fried hard. We continue to eat and i notice a spoiled smell coming from a few of my wings. So I stop eating. Everything seems fine until close to mid night. Myself, my mother, and my grandmother are all darting for the restrooms. Projectile vomiting and explosive diarrhea. (Which by the way is still happening at 6:28 pm.) At several points the remains of chicken, fries, and corn nuggets are coming from both ends simultaneously. Around 8am we head to the little clinic where we are ALL diagnosed with food poisoning. And are instructed to stay hydrated. I then wait u til the store opens and give them a call (12:15) requesting to speak with the manager is the owner. The cashier informs me that the Manager will not be in until 3 or 4. I ask her to take my number and request a return call. Minutes later (12:23) the cashier calls back asking the purpose of me wanting to speak with the manager. I provide her with full details and she says she'll have her call me as soon as she gets in. Moments later (12:34 ) I receive an incoming call from Ms.Timica (store manager) w quoting about my experience. After giving her the full details she states that she's never heard anything about food poisoning and basically tries to dismiss my claim. She then asked how did I know we had food poisoning and I inform her that we had ALL seen the doctor. She asked what the symptoms were and I then described them again and told her she could also Google more information about food poisoning. The conversation continues and she states that always changes her grease at least twice a week. She then asks what I would like for her to do. Whether that be a full refund, replaced order, new order, etc. I tell her that we will no longer be visiting their establishment and that I would like a refund. Ms. Tunica then says as soon as she gets to the store she would give me a call to process my refund. I say ok. Mind you throughout this conversation I'm running back and forth to the restroom. 5:27 arrives and I haven't heard back from anyone so I give them a call. They fumble through their questions about us having food poisoning and making statements such as "I've never heard of anything like this". Moments pass and she claims to not see my name, phone number, or card information in their system and asks me to give them a call back at 6 because they were extremely busy. She also says that I can just come up there and get it. I explain to her, again, that do you food poisoning from their establishment I can not leave the house. She responds with "because of diarrhea " so, I say yes, and vomiting. We end the phone call and I give them a few minutes past 6 since they were "so" busy. I call 6 times starting at 6:14 and to no surprise the answering service continues to pick up. I then call Ms.Timica back on the number she called me from earlier, and guess what?! She says the store closed at 6 and no one's there, and that i can come when I feel better to get a refund. So I politely tell her that she asked me to call her at 6 because they were super busy. At no point did she disclose that they would be closed at 6. You're kidding me right? No remorse, no apology, just excuse after excuses. So now here I am...6:49 still running back and forth to the restroom along with my mother and grandmother as a result of food poisoning. No refund, no remorse, no nothing. Please reconsider supporting this establishment until they do better. I've uploaded pictures for supporting evidence. (I've also numbered them in case they get out of order)

    Best wings in Memphis. Not the nicest establishment but you don't go for the ambiance but rather the food. 11/10 wings.

    This Crumpy's is awesome! Their wings are delicious, and they have a ton of flavors to choose from. (I'm a creature of habit and typically get their chicken tenders with seasoned fries.). It's on Dunlap, across the street and a little down from St. Jude. The owners are great, and once (when I was waiting on my order) they even threw in a free cheeseburger when I asked how they were there. I'm not gonna lie... I ate that as well, and it was great! There are a lot of wing places around town, but this is quickly becoming one of my favorites. It does get super busy at lunch though, so either don't be in a rush or call ahead.

    Racist, terrible service. Waited over an hour. Worst "Crumpy's" in Memphis. Might as well be a Chings.

    Loved everything about Gus's! I avoid meat mostly, but I was…read morenot about to miss trying famous fried chicken! The restaurant is tucked away on a small, empty street. There is plenty of parking in a lot across the street. We went inside and found it to be pretty busy, but we got a table for 4 quickly. The place was clean and homey-feeling and I loved the fact that they used disposable plates, utensils and napkins! It is probably way easier on the crew to clean up, and it adds to the relaxed atmosphere. I had the corn nuggets to start, yum! We finished them easily, they were so good. Then the entree of my chicken tenders, beans, and Mac and cheese came out, along with my sweet tea. The sweet tea was perfect, I drank a whole one during my meal and they gave me another to go in the souvenir Gus's cup. The food was just great, chicken was juicy and perfectly crunchy on the outside. Beans and Mac and cheese, delicious! I ate all of it even though I was stuffed. I even went so far as to order a piece of pecan pie for dessert, but unfortunately our server came back out to tell us they were out of it! Guess it wasn't meant to be (this time)! Our server was really friendly during our whole meal, chatted with us a little and made sure we had a great experience! Bottom line.... Go to Gus's!

    Gus's Fried Chicken was a solid 3 star experience overall. The chicken itself was crispy,…read moreflavorful, and definitely the highlight of the meal. The atmosphere was casual and welcoming, making it a comfortable spot to grab a bite. I wasn't really a fan of the mac and cheese, as it leaned way too heavily on the processed cheese flavor and ended up overly cheesy in a not-so-great way. The texture and taste reminded me more of melted processed cheese than a rich, homemade mac and cheese. However, the service was delightful and easily made up for some of the disappointment with the sides. The staff was friendly, attentive, and made us feel genuinely welcomed throughout the visit. While not everything hit the mark for me, the great service and tasty fried chicken make Gus's worth trying if you're in the mood for comfort food.

    I finally got a chance to try this place after it was talked about so much and highly suggested by…read morea group of friends. So, to start, the parking is not great and they do not have a drive thru (which I am ok with). Walking in there was not much directions or clear signs on where to place your order and the employees did not try to help at all. Once I placed my order the process was pretty smooth. I order the bacon cheeseburger. It was made fresh along with the fries. The burger had a good amount of American-style cheese and crispy applewood smoked bacon. Choose as many toppings as you want. I had tomatoes, pickles, lettuce, and mayo. The buns were toasted. The burger was delicious. I hear a lot about the price, but I must say it was worth it. The fries are plentiful! I mean it's like they give you a whole bag to yourself and I ain't complaining..lol! The store itself is not a place I would want to sit and it. It wasn't clean and the staff are not friendly. I found a clean little corner and sat and ate, but it isn't a place I would choose to frequent. Cool spot. Good food!

    "Great!" I was told. So we went. Burgers: okay. Fries: cold. Price: lunatic. Service: pedestrian,…read moreslow, disinterested. Ambiance: on this particular day, less meticulously kept than you'd expect one of the allegedly better burger joints to be. Poor signage--it was less than clear where to order, where to pick up.
