I didn't have the experience I expected to have with Gus'. It came so highly reviewed online and by friends so maybe I came on an off day. But the food seemed very "regular" and I missed out on the hype of the big portions and "worth the price" flavors. There were many menu options and kind service but I wish I could say more about the food. I got the Submarine and really expected much more reading the description. The quality was very much like the sandwiches that you can get in the fridge in the lunch room. I would like to go back for a more "meatier" sandwich but I'm worried for a back to back bad experience. I'll give it another try and hope for redemption read more

Uppon arriving, the staff was very nice, greeted you and immediately asked to take our order. I went in for a tuna melt, and my boyfriend asked for the BBQ pulled pork sandwich. Tuna melt wasn't bad, but it wasn't the best. I ordered pasta, and they forgot to add in our bag, and with 90dg weather, they can keep it. The pork sandwich is a 4/5, really good, soft, and well seasoned. read more

About time I did a review...long time customer. Great owners, great employees never had a problem. This was my go to after work spot to get an ice cold beer for a while. You order up front they bring you your food. Steak sandwich, grilled chicken sandwich, pastrami sandwich, tri-tip sandwich, bacon cheeseburger all highly recommend. All come w fries except the grilled chicken sandwich. Can't go wrong w any of those. To be honest i dont think I ever tried the bbq ribs or chicken. It's always been one of the sandwiches listed above or a bacon cheeseburger (you can taste the freshness of their burger patties). You can sit inside or outside in the patio. Great spot to come enjoy a sandwich and an ice cold beer. Gus and family will greet and help you with a smile. read more

The submarine sandwich was the most disgusting sandwich I've ever had. The slices of meat were not deli, they were store bought from Food4Less it appeared. Low quality meat, low quality bread. I didn't even finish the sandwich, I threw it away , wasting $20. Never again will I go to this establishment. Do not order the Submarine. It tanked! 0 stars if I could. read more

So my husband has been talking about this place since he had lunch here a few months ago and has been raving about the pulled pork sandwich. He finally took me today and I had to try the pulled pork sandwich. So I did so and I must say this was a pretty dang good sandwich. The bread wasn't hard at all it was soft the meat was good and the sandwich was stuffed just right. The bbq sauce on the sandwich wasn't too sweet or too tangy it was a perfect combo. The ambiance of this place is super cute and clean definitely an old school butcher shop vibe I thought it was the perfect little spot for a simple bbq. They do have meats you can try there. The service was fast and the staff was friendly. I would most definitely go back to try something else read more

The ribs were fall off the bone. The amount of bbq... WAY TOO MUCH. It was my first time here & didn't know what to expect. The sides options were not typical for BBQ, or at least not for me.

This is part food joint part local butcher. In the same room that you can order a 2 Lbs. roast you can order BBQ food and some non-BBQ food. Heads up they have More sandwiches than anything. When you walk up to order food the first thing you might notice is that the food is in a warming box similar to walking up to the deli at your local market. They have the chicken, ribs, meatloaf, and a few other items for you to see. Once you order they bring your food to you. For the food being done it took a while. It's all on paper plates and plastic utensils. And the biggest thing is the food was just meh. It wasn't bad but it wasn't good. So in conclusion: Food being just ok - 1 star Helpful staff - 1 star Clean- 1 star read more

The food was fair, but way WAY overpriced. We had a roast beef sandwich, (which came with no fries or drink) and a pulled bbq chicken sandwich. The total was $29.85. The shop is clean, but there is also a meat counter. I'm not a vegetarian, but it was still a little unnerving. To be eating and having a cow's skull in the case looking right at you! Gross! Don't think I'll be coming back. read more

I got the Italian, which comes loaded with ham, cotto salami, mortadella, capocollo, and provolone. The lettuce, tomatoes, onions, and pepperoncinis were fresh, crisp, and hit the spot. Prices are reasonable, and you get a generous portion for your money. Good value! Service was excellent and super friendly!
