"I was told that a trip to Kansas City wasn't complete unless you make a stop to Gus's famous fried chicken. Now every one says their fried chicken is the best so I was super skeptical but I was already four dirty Mimosas in so I figured why not. I got the spicy wings with a side of Mac and Cheese with greens. We got it to go and it didn't take but about 7 minutes to fill our orders. The chicken was fresh, hot, crispy and seasoned. You could taste the spicy but it wasn't overly spicy. I think that I inhaled the chicken or someone else stole my pieces. I will admit! That I might have been a little tipsy and don't remember what the sides tasted like but the chicken was really good."

World Famous indeed! The staff is super friendly. But onto the food ? The chicken has a great spicy kick, but it's so juicy and tender once you bite into it! The sweet tea is a great taste here! Also the Mac n cheese is some REAL Mac n cheese. The apps were tried were the fried green tomatoes and fried okra, sooooooo good!!

Oh, my!! This is seriously the best fried chicken I have had in my life. It came out hot and the chicken was juicy and delicious. The best part? The seasoning has a little bit of a kick but in a latent way. Nothing too hot or uncomfortable to eat. Actually, the perfect balance of spice and heat. I felt like the pricing was fair in the restaurant was clean, neat and orderly. The wait staff was exceptional. Clearly a well run restaurant with a winning menu! Don't delay go try it for yourself!

Pretty good. I was afraid it would be too spicy, but I couldn?t even tell it was spicy at all. Chicken was crispy and juicy. It was good. The fries were good. Then beans?prob straight from a can. Kinda expensive, but I didn?t mind. Unlike the chain chicken restaurants, I didn?t get sick after eating. The waitstaff were all good. Seemed to enjoy their job, seemed friendly and happy. Parking wasn?t bad. I didn?t think the wait was bad. We got the 12 piece and the special and everyone at my house enjoyed it.
