Gus’s is a must stop while on the strip for any Vols fans or if you’re looking for a burger. Love this place!!
Fair to say that Gus’s is the best deli I’ve ever been to. The steamed sandwiches are fantastic, and even a basic sandwich with minimal toppings is outstanding. The nostalgia is incredible, as it looks exactly like I imagine it did in the 80’s. Tons of Tennessee memorabilia inside as well which is really cool to look at. 10/10, 5 stars, highly recommend!
Been eating at Gus's Good Times Deli since I joined the Big Orange Family in 2015. In east Tennessee I'd rank it with Pal's as great places to eat. You will be welcomed by friendly faces and great service. The food is a treat to your stomach, especially the Grilled Ham & Cheese, and of course the french fries.
Lots of great memorabilia for sports fans. Tops on my list for "hole in the walls" in Knoxville. Love Gus's!
