Great chicken . Spicy like I like it. Sides are great too. Only complaint is its twice as pricy as Harold's but not better. In fact I'd say Harold's actually is better. Gus's is still great too though.

Erik Rowley

Great to see Gus's finally open in Chicago and the West Loop is the perfect location. Awesome hot chicken and southern cuisine ! Take your cup home as a souvenir.

Mike

This was some surprisingly delicious fried chicken - hint of spicy . Prices were pretty reasonable. This seems like a good place to mow down some fried chicken , drink beers , and watch the game.

The BEST #friedchicken in #fultonmarket. Hot, crispy and juicy, with a touch of spice. Real down-home feel. Great homemade sides (the potato salad and cole slaw were awesome). We will be back soon.

Heather Folsom

This chicken is spicy ! Just a warning if you're not into that kind of thing. The breading is perfectly crisp, and the meat is moist & flavorful. The coleslaw was delicious.

Jessica Gould

If you had been here on more then one occasion: you all should try the original Gus's World Famous Chicken Shack in Memphis , TN Sometime in the near future!

Didn't like the french fries - not crispy enough for me. But their chickens amazing - very crispy on the outside and juicy inside with a hint of spicy (kinda salty)

The Cajun spice rub makes the wings unique. The macaroni was particularly creamy and obviously delicious. Can’t really go wrong.

Kevin Wilson

A slow and monotonous morning can put anyone in a funk. That’s when you need to spice up your day with a trip to Gus’s.

Several friends and I had dinner Saturday. The service was terrible. Paid $16 for what was more like a Swanson's frozen dinner . Paid $16 for a 3 piece a tablespoon of ma n cheese and 10 fries .
