3 pcs dark combo with mashed potatoes and fried rice.
Albert T.

Fried chicken and rice, this is my go-to comfort food. When my parents told me about this new fried chicken place in Arlington, I just had to try! They not only have chicken, but they also have catfish and shrimp! I've had them all so I will breakdown each food below. Let me say the prices are very cheap for the type of food and quality. There are lot of combinations either chicken, catfish, or shrimp, a choice of 2 sides (rice, fries, mashed potatoes, green beans), an Hawaiian roll, and a drink (free re-fills). The fried chicken is very crisp, not too oily, the meat is tender and full of taste! However I wish there was a "spicy" fried chicken-type offered, I didn't see it on the menu. The catfish and the shrimp are truly a hidden gem of this restaurant. Priced very reasonably for fried seafood, the batter used is flavorful, and the fried taste doesn't not over power the actual taste of the fish or shrimp. If you want to feed a lot of people I would suggest you look at the specials plastered all over the front windows. Not too sure how often they are changed but I saw 24pc dark for under $15, you can't beat that! Overall, the service is good, the restaurant and bathrooms are clean. I will definitely be back!

Dark chicken with corn nuggets, gizzard, fried shrimp with fried okra and onion rings!
Kim L.

The shrimp was so good! Crunchy and the batter was a little sweet. Crunchy onion rings by far one of the best! The gizzard was not bad, better than chicken express and it had a little salt which help the seasoning. I didn't really like the chicken but the batter was very well made. My bf liked the chicken and said the meat was soft to his liking. The rice wasn't anything special tbh, my bf was just hungry. The corn nugget was sooo good, give us more pls pls!!! 5 star!! Will be back!!

2 pc Catfish
Lindsey K.

When it's been a long day and I'm not trying to be in the kitchen I tend to come here and get a few thangs. For example the Fried Rice is bomb and comes with a Egg Roll, yes please. My boyfriend loves the Fried Catfish and I get the tenders and sometimes corn nuggets and fries are always fresh! I agree some reviews about the drive thru needing updated and they always make you drive around to side so that's frustrating.

Three old, dry chicken tenders at the bottom of the box.
Gianna M.

Our first time there and everything (other than the chicken) were good. The chicken tenders were too dry and hard and then towards the end of the box, three tenders were dark and flat out dry so those went straight to the trash can. All the sides were good, French fries, rice and corn on the cob. The hot sauce and gravy were good as well. I just can't vouch for those tenders. More than likely, we won't be trying that place again. Sorry, but it is what it is...

Fried shrimp, hush puppies, corn nuggets & onion rings; bonus is the delicious sweet-ish roll.
angela w.

I love this joint. Admittedly it's not the type of place I would have gone to on my own, but my co-workers introduced me to it, and I'm glad they did! Chicken, fish, shrimp and...drumroll....fried rice!!! All are good! Especially for the $. Fried shrimp are decent sized with a nice crispy coating; catfish filets are huge! Lots of fun sides including corn nuggets, fried jalapeños, hush puppies, fries, beans, rice mashed potatoes/gravy and more. Fried rice is plentiful and can be served 3 different styles (Regular, "Baja" style which is w/ jalapeños, and "Aloha" style which has pineapple). Comes with a great egg roll which reminds me of the egg rolls from Jack In The Box (and that's a good thing). Want something different? They even offer a jalapeño cheese corn dog which is AWESOME. Prices are so reasonable, good service at the counter and drive thru, both. Keep up the good work, Luci's!

3 piece dark, 2 sides and a drink- $6.00

I had been DYING to come try this spot out after all the rave reviews, and I am GLAD I did. We…read moredecided to come prior to a concert we were going to at the AT&T Stadium. I have to stay this beat any stadium food you could've gotten out the water, and the value emphasizes that! We got so much food for the price point, and it was all good! I personally got the chicken and pickle on a stick, and the dough babies which is a glazed donut / roll hybrid that is so delicious and warm, the glaze is very vanilla forward. Krispy Kreme has nothing on these. The chicken on a stick was good, however, the flavor was a bit too sweet for me, so I would get the powdered Nashville hot seasoning on it next time, but it was so delicious and came with some really good ranch that taste like it's made in house (which obviously makes it better!). My mom who I was dining with got the quarter pound chicken plate, and I much preferred the seasoning on this chicken, but it was all very yummy. It also came with a roll, two sauces, and tons of fresh cut fries, so if you're looking for some of those you don't have to wait for the fair just come to Mary Sue's! The young lady working the register was very sweet, when we ordered our beverages I wanted to get a watermelon, Arnold Palmer, and she was happy to oblige, and the drinks even had fresh fruit in the bottom super refreshing to pair with the meal. There's an array of different hot sauces. You can try to pair with your food, at a hot sauce, bar and some of them are HOT, so proceed with caution, but it's fun to be able to have a variety of choices. They weren't slammed when we came in, we were able to order easily, and there was a steady trickle of people dining within the place, yet the tables were regularly open, and being cleaned as able. They really play into the location, and had some music playing relevant to the concert we were going to which was a nice little pregame! As we were dining, the co-owner was even making rounds throughout the lobby and chatting with patrons, we talked to him for a bit, and there's so much passion behind the business that it's hard not to just feel joy being in his presence and having a meal. I'm wishing continued success to the establishment, and know this is the place I have in mind next time I'm in the area. Be sure to check the hours on Google, just to make sure you're able to go enjoy it when you're ready, because the ones on the door don't align. There's also ample parking so you don't need to worry about that, and the lot doubles as paid parking for events.

This is by far the best chicken spot in Arlington! No BS! Very nice staff, providing excellent…read moreservice. The restaurant is nicely laid out with convenient seating. Very nice vibe all around. We ordered the tenders and chicken on a stick. So flavorful with a slight spice so be ready for that. It was so good I didn't mind the spiciness. Do yourself a favor and check this place out. I'm definitely going back!

The fired chicken dinner includes the white meat my wife likes and the dark meat I love plus unlimited veggies for the both of us. It's the perfect dinner for the two of us. The fried chicken was, of course, stellar, as it always is plus the addition of the phenomenal sides. the Italian style green beans, creamed style corn, whipped potatoes and a lettuce salad with their sweet-sour dressing.

The majority of the food tasted highly processed and did not taste homemade at all. It lacked the fresh, authentic flavor you expect from a local seafood spot.The environment of the restaurant did not help the experience either. Upon walking in, the atmosphere felt chaotic because the walls were cluttered with far too many signs, and the menus were completely disorganized. It made ordering feel stressful. To make matters worse, the owner was openly vaping right behind the counter while customers were waiting, which felt completely unprofessional and unhygienic for a food establishment.The only saving grace of the entire visit was the cashier. They were incredibly nice, polite, and welcoming despite the chaotic surroundings. However, good customer service at the register cannot make up for sub-par food and an unprofessional environment. I cannot recommend it to others looking for a quality meal.

They were busy' but had a number of open tables. There are mostly square and rectangular 4-top tables. We chose one by the front windows.

The BBQ Beans weren't special but were decent. The Greens, decent. With each meal plate, the chicken is served on a slice of white bread. The chicken was fried to a deep brown and was real tasty. My dark meat was juicy and tender. My wife's white meat was drier but normal for white meat. My wife's felt the chicken skin was maybe overcooked as it was tough. It was fine to me. I ate her skin :) We'll be back to Gus's!
