Yum Yum Yum. This is some quality fried chicken. The meat was SO JUICY and tender. I could tell the chicken was fresh because of how hot it was. It felt like it just came out of the frier. We had the 30 piece with a medium side of coleslaw and potato salad. The coleslaw wasnt anything special but it was decent enough to enjoy with the fried chicken. There was ONE piece of chicken that was super dry and almost unedible but other than that one piece this place was very good.

OH MY GOSH DELICIOUS FRIED CHICKEN ! Has a little kick to it but not overpowering, skin on chicken is crispy and SO GOOD. Chicken is made to order not sitting under a heat lamp and is served piping hot .. Krystal, our waitress, was great in helping us decide what to order, she is fantastic . . Will definitely return and refer other people there . . THANK YOU KRYSTAL FOR YOUR EXCELLENT SERVICE 😍

Gus Fry Chicken serves up some of the best fried chicken I ever had grub. Crispy, juicy, and full of flavor. You can really taste the paprika in the batter, which adds a nice kick without overpowering the chicken. The store is spotless, and even the restroom was impressively clean. We dined in, and the service was fast and friendly. Only downside was that parking was a bit tough to find, but it was well worth it. If you love great fried chicken, Gus delivers big time.
