    My friends meal
    Rodonna R.

    So my baked chicken was superb, the green beans were perfect and the mashed potatoes were fine once I put a little salt on it. Service was as great and it filled up quickly with other customers. I love the down home feel. Yes I'll be back,

    Good old fashioned southern soul food is what they're know for. Get your taste buds ready and experience the fried chicken or the fried pork chops. I love them both so I always get 2 plates. The service is prompt as this place fills up quickly. It's good to eat in or just as good to take out. The greens,yams, and fried corn are my favorite vegetables here, but come and try for yourself. You won't be disappointed.

    The best food I've had in years. The fried chicken is delicious, but the veggies were my favorite. From the cabbage to the collards (which I ended up ordering a pint to take with me) this place knows how to prepare authentic, flavorful food for the soul. And as a nice bonus they have cherry kool aid slushes!! Krystal was my server and she was very attentive and didn't mind helping me pick her favorites from the menu. The entire meal including two plates, a large drink, pint of collards, half dozen extra cornbread AND a delicious piece of italian cream cake were around $50. I tipped well for the great service. Be sure to keep their hours in mind, as they close the dining room service at 2:30, but you can order to go until 3. Closed Saturday, Sunday and Monday. If you're in the area I highly recommend!

    This review can be quickly summarized as: Best fried chicken in DFW. I can't get chicken home, because I sit in the car and eat it all. Do yourself a solid and make your sides at home and get their chicken. Finger licking good.

    Fried chicken, collard greens, and macaroni and cheese

    Let me start by saying, I have been by this place a few times and they were always closed. Today was my lucky day. I ordered a small plate of chicken, fried of course, collard greens and Mac & cheese. The food came out, hot and smelling good. If y'all had smell-a-review, you 'd know what I was saying, lol. Every bite was good. So, good most people would say you could slap your mama (however, I would not say that since my mom is still on this earth and she'd slap me back ). The crunch on the chicken was so loud, you could hear it all over Fort Worth. Everything is served in Styrofoam, which is a plus because it's an easy carry out. One slight detractor, a little too much salt. Just drink plenty of water so your ankles won't be swollen. I noticed everybody was getting the sweet potatoes. That will be my next venture. I think if you want good down home Soulfood, you should try this place. I know I will be back.

    Are they still open? I live in Fort Worth and I've passed the restaurant several times during their alleged business hours; and the doors are closed and parking lot is empty.

    Their hours can vary. I've seen them close for spring break in the past. I think this is truly a "mom and pop" place. Family owned business that will close for family. But don't let that deter you from trying again! The times when I catch them open,… Read more

Very upscale area so the inside is upscale PRICE: ~$70 I think WOULD I COME BACK? Yes! **** Overall Rating: 9/10 - I was surprised by how fancy this place was (it is in the Clearfork shopping area which is known as a bougie shopping center so not super surprised). - The biscuits were so so good I wish that I took a picture of them but I recommend those for sure! The fried chicken and kale salad complemented each other so well I highly recommend as well. - The deviled eggs were good but they are just basic so you can skip those (unless if you were craving it). - The pimento cheese was very good too it was packed with flavor. I wish it came with more bread but I'm assuming we could've asked for more. - A little pricier than you would think but honestly this place had so much flavor I'm not gonna continue to complain about that lol.

We started with the biscuits and cinnamon roll. I would recommend both. The biscuits came with a jam, honey and whipped butter. The cinnamon roll, which may look a bit underwhelming had a such a great crispy texture on the outside while still being fluffy on the inside. The icing wasn't too sweet and complimented the roll nicely. For the table, we had the pollo frito biscuit w/duck fat potatoes, Brisket Benedict w/okra and the Fixe Breakfast entree w/maple sausage and potatoes. The pollo Frito was delicious, the chicken was seasoned well and maintained crunch even within the biscuit. Duck fat potatoes were also good but were even better after adding some salt. The brisket benny was okay, the texture of the brisket was very odd and didn't really hold up to the egg. Although the okra had a great flavor the batter was a bit too thick which made it chewy. The Fixe breakfast was great and the maple sausage was perfect. Our waitress was Adriana, she was great and very helpful. Overall we would definitely come back and look forward to trying dinner one night.

    Gus's World Famous Fried Chicken is one of those places that reminds you why simple comfort food…read moredone RIGHT will always win. The first thing you notice is that the chicken actually tastes seasoned all the way through -- not just on the outside. Crispy, flavorful, juicy, and cooked with consistency. You can tell this is the kind of recipe that comes from tradition, experience, and knowing exactly what customers come back for. And let's talk about that crunch... THAT crunch. The chicken has that perfect balance where it's crispy without feeling overly greasy, and every bite tastes fresh and made with care. You can also taste the slight kick in the seasoning, which gives it personality without overpowering the flavor. What I appreciate most is that Gus's doesn't try too hard to be trendy or overcomplicated. It feels authentic. Good food, solid portions, comforting sides, and an atmosphere that feels welcoming and laid back. The service has always been friendly when I've visited, and the food quality stays consistent -- which matters because consistency is what separates good restaurants from memorable ones. In a world full of restaurants trying to reinvent fried chicken, Gus's proves that mastering the basics with flavor, culture, and quality is more than enough. Come hungry. Leave happy. And definitely don't wear white unless you're ready to risk it all for that chicken.

Will come back again. And try different sides.

The front windows of the restaurant had fairy purple lights hanging from the wall. The full bar is quite impressive as it maybe 12' long? But Just my guess. Don't quote me on it. Upon opening the restaurant early in the day you are offered their brunch menu. They have a lunch menu you just need to ask for it. The brunch and lunch menus didn't offer any type of appetizers, but I wish they would have the food service took quite a minute to have our meals brought to our table. I ordered the salmon Benedict's and my husband ordered a cheeseburger. We were quite perplexed on their sides. They don't offer french fries with a hamburger or even a bag of chips. Their sides are potatoes au gratin, asparagus, Mac & cheese,if they have it, and mushrooms. We were also quite surprised at the exact location of this restaurant. It's tucked away on a small street of a camp Bowie in a strip shopping center. We found the food to be very good, but it'd be nice to have appetizers on every menu and it would be nice if you could have french fries to go with a cheeseburger. I'm sharing pictures of the menu for the brunch and lunch. The dinner menu has more options.
