About Gus's BBQ

Gus's BBQ offers tasty BBQ and other great options in a friendly setting. The food is well-prepared and served with a smile. Portions are generous, and prices are reasonable. The outdoor patio is spacious, pleasant, and pet-friendly, making it a good place to enjoy a meal with your pup. Popular dishes include the "naked" wings with sauce on the side, blackened salmon salad, and ribs with pulled pork and brisket. The fried chicken is crispy and flavorful, while the mashed potatoes are very creamy. The cast iron skillet cornbread is melt-in-your-mouth, especially with honey butter. The BBQ chicken dinner is tender and tasty, and the catfish with grits is highly recommended. The restaurant is clean, with a nice outdoor seating area and plenty of shade. Servers like Cynthia and Jordan are friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable, adding to the welcoming atmosphere.

Many customers enjoy ordering pork chili verde and rib sliders, both of which are truly delicious. The beverages from the bar are also appreciated, with a standout list of bourbon brands and a refreshing Happy Hour Chardonnay. Some reviews mention that the gumbo was not seasoned properly and was replaced by Brick chicken, which was delicious. The restaurant can be a little noisy, but the great food makes up for it. Overall, Gus's BBQ remains a popular spot for casual dining with good food and friendly service.
