I tried their boneless chicken wings for the first time. They were delicious, tender, moist, and perfectly cooked. I placed the minimum order of ten (10). At 60 cents each, they were worth every penny of the $6.00 plus tax. I think that they actually gave me a dozen! (The boneless wings are are actually chunks of breaded, fried chicken.) One thing to remember is that if you place an order at the drive through at around 5:00 pm, expect it to take 15 or 20 minutes to receive your food. I should have called in my order, but it was a last second decision to swing by there. Fortunately, they've repaired their speaker box in the drive through lane. As always, the owner was very affable, and seemed grateful for the business from customers. I shall return.

Boneless Chicken Wings
Mr. O.

Some really good wings,seasoning was so good i had to buy some for the road... My uncle said they was good an i was not disappointed...

1lb BBQ with a side of BBQ Sauce.
Howard K.

Traveling through on I 40 and wanted to get some barbecue. On Sunday in this area it seemed like the other barbecue restaurants were closed. This is in West Memphis. So I chose Kelly's kicking chicken. Pull pork did not disappoint! It was very moist and nicely cooked. It has some seasoning but not over seasoned by any means. I asked for a side of barbecue sauce and I had enough for a few pounds. Overall great food would definitely stop in again. The customer service was excellent and very friendly

Over cooked chicken. It was rough

This sucks my dad works so hard and all he wanted was some good wings he ordered 10 wings and they were overcooked and green tomatoes and fried mushroom were burnt and I can tell THEY ARE COOked IN OLD OIL GOD BLESS whoever was cooking but it sucks that this happened. Keep your money definitely a ruined spot for us

ALL RANCH dressing (no bleu cheese)
Molly B.

$19.25 for 10 whole wings-not worth it. The wings were overcooked & dry. I ordered the deluxe salad with bleu cheese dressing but did not get any bleu cheese dressing...only the ranch for the wings. Disappointed

So good fresh and hot definitely 5 star reviews. I will most definitely be visiting this spot again. Customer service was great.

So good food was hot and fresh. I had a side of mac & cheese. I drive trucks from out of town. My terminal is not far from here so I tried it for the first time and I will definitely say I will be coming back. Customer service was great.

Food was good ...only wish the hot sauce was more spicy than vinegary! Good customer service! Reasonable price i got 5 whole wings and fries for $16 and some change!

This was my second time visiting Gus's World Famous Fried Chicken, with my first experience being…read moreat their East Atlanta location. This time around, I stopped by the Downtown Memphis location, which is tucked away in a residential area not too far from Beale Street. A little off the beaten path, but definitely worth the trip. Now, let's talk about the experience. When I walked in, I wasn't greeted or acknowledged. A few employees made eye contact, but nobody said a word. I eventually learned from another customer that it was a seat-yourself establishment. Interesting! LOL. However, the moment I sat down, someone came right over to take my order. I guess everybody strictly stays in their lane around here! I ordered the three-piece white meat meal with coleslaw, baked beans, and a small side of mac and cheese. BABY, that chicken was GOOD! Everything came out in a timely manner, piping hot, fresh, and full of flavor. The chicken was seasoned just right, and the portions were generous. Exactly what I was looking for! Another thing I appreciated was the cleanliness. Both the dining area and restroom were clean and well-maintained. The prices were also very reasonable, especially considering the quality and amount of food you receive. My only real criticism is the initial customer service experience. A simple greeting or acknowledgment when someone walks through the door goes a long way. Other than that, I enjoyed my visit. Would I return? ABSOLUTELY! The food speaks for itself, and Gus's continues to deliver on that front.

This place is very unique. They have a whole lotta different art and even a jukebox…read more Now to the food. Let's just say you come here for the chicken not the sides. The chicken had a good spicy and juicy. The sides needed seasoning and help all the way around. Our service was nice and good just the sides I had a big issue with.

The most delicious meal I've had in Memphis. I recommend studying the menu before you come because…read moreyou'll be asked to order as you enter. You'll pay there and then be offered a table and your food will be brought to you. Your check includes a 15% service charge of course you can tip additionally with cash later if you wish. I've never heard of eating neckbones so of course that's what I ordered. The pork neckbones had been well braised and were super delicious. Truly an ultimate pork experience. You definitely have to pick them up and chew all over. But there's lots of meat. Some of it you can get to with a fork, and some of it can be broken apart for easier access to the meat, but it is not an elegant meal! I found the vinegar at the table really enhanced the flavor. My sides were black-eyed peas and turnip greens, and the greens were spectacular. The corn muffin was very good. The sweet tea was very sweet, but not nearly as sweet as the peach cobbler. The cobbler was delicious with lots of nutmeg, but people really have a sweet tooth in Memphis. I ate on a Sunday and got there just before noon to get in ahead of the after-church crowd and my timing was perfect. The dining room filled up while I was eating.

He chatted with us as we waited at our table for our orders. He served our orders and bused our plates too. He does everything and is very personable providing welcoming hospitality. And he's only worked there for a mere 5 weeks. I asked him who the owner is and he directed me to Jerry and Patrice Thompson, two of the nicest folks you'll ever meet. Jerry has a big welcoming personality and a great sense of humor. Fried catfish fillets were excellent! Crust was just right and the fillets were moist. I ate everything in my plate. Peach cobbler was warmed up, we opted to not have it w ice cream, and it is the best in Memphis! Such a long and storied history for this restaurant. We are so glad we came here and will return next time we are in Memphis. My only regret is we were too full to eat fried chicken too.

The only Black-owned restaurant on Beale Street definitely did not disappoint for our first visit!…read more The Ladies of Carolina Double Dutch Therapy had an absolute blast as we attended the Annual Double Dutch Therapy Beale Street Takeover Event 4/30/26 - 5/3/26. What started as lunch quickly turned into karaoke -- LOL! The atmosphere was fun, welcoming, and full of good vibes. The food was so amazing that we had to personally meet the cook. Tyrone came out to our table, and let's just say that tip was WELL deserved! As we say in the Carolinas, "he put his foot in that food!" There were 13 of us, and despite our large group, the waitress never skipped a beat -- all while being the only server working during Friday lunch service. Her professionalism, attentiveness, and positive attitude truly stood out. The service, food, and ambiance made this an unforgettable experience, and these Carolinians will definitely be back! I couldn't attach the video of us singing; however, here we are! See you all next year ~DDT-LOC~

I can not believe I have not reviewed Soul Fish as of yet. I am a huge fan…read more Let me preface this review by saying ... My grandfather owned two successful catfish restaurants. As a child I grew up on fried fish filets and hush puppies until my grandfather had to retire and sell his restaurant due to his Health. He still cooks up a mess of catfish for us about two or three times a year when we visit. Yum! My standards for good catfish are extremely high. Good fried catfish is not greasy, light cornmeal batter, tender flaky inside, and slightly crispy on the outside. Sounds simple enough but the truth of the matter is... Good fried catfish takes skill. After an epic searched for any decent catfish in Memphis and surrounding areas that took a few years ... My family and I decided to give up. And when I heard about Soul Fish it took some considerable convincing to get them to go. We where, none of us, disappointed! Soul Fish is without a doubt the best Catfish in Memphis. It is perfectly fried... Hushpuppies are tasty, coleslaw edible if not always yummy, fried pickles crisp and tart, pickle green tomatoes so yummy I could swim in them, and vegetables always cooked and seasons well (special recognition to the cabbage, broccoli, and black eyed peas). The service is always friendly, fast, efficient, and correct. The blackened catfish is pretty tasty too ... Sometimes they get a little heavy handed on the seasoning. Deserts are pretty great as well. My sister loves the Mississippi mud chocolate thingy they have (I'm not a chocolate fan). I've introduced many people (about 40 or so) to Soul Fish - locals and visitors alike - and no one ... And I mean not a single one of them where disappointed. So why four stars instead of five? True... the catfish is the best in Memphis - however it is not the best I've ever had. And Sometimes a filet or two at Soul Fish fall short of perfection... However ... I'm a regular and a fan of Soul Fish Cafe. If you have spent hours and disappointed meals trying to find good catfish in Memphis ... Look no further ... This is the place for you. I promise you will not Be disappointed!

I recommend going during the lunch hour or during the week for dinner because on a weekend or Sunday afternoon, you're gonna have a wait.

You place your order first and then you find a seat if one is available to dine in. Dining is limited and the establishment consist of local black artwork covering the walls there is an upstairs area, but that seating is also limited. The owner was very proud of his establishment and gave us the history of how they came about and who cooks what in the restaurant. The service was great the food unfortunately did not match. I'm all for supporting black owned businesses, but I have to give honest feedback. Starting with the sides, the spaghetti, the cabbage, and the greens all had excessive amounts of sugar in them, which was such a turn off, everything taste the same it was so sweet it created a film in my mouth of sugar. The sweet tea lemonade mix was again full of sugar. You couldn't taste the lemonade or the tea. It was just sweetness. I do understand certain people like their food like this. I however, am not one of those individuals. The turkey ribs, a.k.a. clavicle bone taste like smoked bologna and the A1 barbecue sauce did not enhance the flavor whatsoever I nor my mother could finish our food the cornbread taste like mush everything overpowered everything there was no distinct taste of broccoli or cheese just mushy wet undercooked cornbread that again was sweet. The only star of the show for this experience was the fried fish. It was cooked to perfection seasoned well surprisingly without sugar. We could not finish our food after a couple of bites so we took it to go and handed it to a homeless person on the way home. I love the concept of this establishment. I love how they incorporate other black businesses and I can tell he is proud of his work. I would love to support in other ways, just not through the food unfortunately, I will not be returning but I pray this establishment continues to improve, evolve, and thrive, it's a million herbs and spices to utilize, sugar doesn't have to be one of them and for $70 bucks I do expect to enjoy the food to some extent.
