Gus's World Famous Fried Chicken has locations in Memphis and the L.A. area, with some reviewers favoring the taste and juiciness of the chicken in L.A. The chicken is known for its unique crust, crispy skin, and slightly spicy flavor, with a noticeable kick from the paprika in the batter. Sides such as potato salad and coleslaw were enjoyed by reviewers, although the coleslaw was described as decent but not special, and the greens were considered bland. The fries were less popular, but fried pickles and pecan pie received positive mentions. Some reviewers noted that one piece of chicken could be dry, but overall, the chicken was praised for being juicy and fresh, served piping hot. While the prices are on the higher side, reviewers generally felt that the delicious chicken was worth the splurge. The store is also noted for being clean, and service has been described as fast and friendly, making it a place where customers would return and refer others. Parking can be a bit tough to find, but many agree that it is well worth the effort for great fried chicken.
