About Gus's BBQ

Gus's BBQ offers delicious and memorable Southern barbecue. The food is tastefully delightful, decadent, and absolutely wonderful, with many describing every bite as mouthwatering. Popular dishes include the tri-tip, the three-meat picnic with Memphis Ribs, brisket, and chicken, and the St. Louis Spareribs paired with Southern Fried Chicken. The ribs are cooked perfectly, juicy, and tender, while the de-boned fried chicken is crispy and flavorful. The wings are outstanding and super delicious. Appetizers like the Cajun Shrimp, deviled eggs, Brussels Sprouts, Popcorn Shrimp, cornbread, gumbo, and pulled pork nachos are all recommended, with the cornbread noted as a must-have. Sides such as collared greens and garlic mashed potatoes taste home cooked. For dessert, the blueberry cobbler a la mode is a favorite. The meat is consistently tender with perfect seasoning, and each table has many selections of BBQ sauces to add. The service is great, with servers described as very polite, attentive, wonderfully pleasant, and on top of it despite being busy. The atmosphere is good for celebrations. A drawback is that parking can be difficult. The restaurant also offers a hazy IPA on tap.
