I asked for gus French toast. Well i got round pancakes. And I told waitress but they wanted to argue. So whatever. I ate the pancakes. One person only making food. I wasn't the only order that wasn't right. So what do you do. Unbelievable.

I’m giving 5 stars because of other reviews and the cook was understanding. The biscuits and gravy were inedible because of the gravy. The scrambled eggs were still runny and the hash browns were cooked in a ton of oil. The French toast was batter in pancake mix but still was good for their take of the dish. To be fair, I could have said something about the eggs so not their fault. Our server almost took our food to the wrong table but I’ve served and have done the same plus she was engaging with other guests. I’d still go back and try lunch items!

I’m sure it’s great, but instantly lost my business by being cash only. Parked, walked in, immediately walked out. Join the 21st century.

This diner is such a a gem in downtown Champaign. Open for breakfast and lunch only, make sure to bring cash (cards not accepted) and get a throwback diner experience with excellent service & food. Highly recommend their French Toast but you can't go wrong with your order at this place- ALWAYS top notch!

Recommended dishes: Gus' Famous French Toast
Nothing fancy about this place, but the food was awesome. Gus' Famous French Toast was unlike any french toast I have had before. Resembled a piece of bread with batter poured on top of it. Was well worth the visit.
This is a cash only establishment, so plan accordingly.

Good basic food. Inexpensive. Casual atmosphere. Fluffy eggs with no green pepper in the Denver omelet so that's a plus. Hashbrowns are nice and crispy. The pancakes came highly recommended. They have grits and peanut butter enough said.
