Gus's Fried Chicken

What's good here? Fried chicken , duh! Cooked to perfection and brought to the table straight from the fryer. Outstanding flavor and excellent service even on a very busy Saturday afternoon.

Excellent, super attentive and kind wait staff , absolutely the best fried chicken I’ve ever had! The sweet tea was a bit too sweet for me, but overall highly recommend when you’re in ATL!

Great fried chicken- crispy , tender, and juicy, with just the right level of spice. Sides weren't anything special but still solid. The service is prettty amazing too

The fried green tomatoes are battered in corn meal and well-seasoned. Delicious! No need for a side of ranch dressing .

One of the best breadings I've had on chicken . Good spice level, tender and moist. Mac is very on point too!

Tenders, Mac and cheese , and chocolate chess pie are all great

Fried chicken is very good; comes out hot with crispy skin and tender on the inside with a hint of cayenne pepper .

Some of the best food I've had in Atlanta. 3pc dark meat plate plus greens, free refills and great pies

Good Food, done right! Nice spice, sweet Mac!

Fried chicken , sides, dessert . You can even buy old school 40 ounce beer bottles.

2 piece was enough for me! Slaw was not too mayo-y and beans not too sweet. Mmm, good!

White or dark doesn't matter; it's all good. Get the Mac and cheese . You'll thank me!

I really loved it!!!!!!!!!! It really deserves it's name: Gus's World Famous Fried Chicken . It's really great!!!!!!!!!!! I'm coming back!!!!!!!!

The chicken is the best I have had. The perfect mix of spice and crunch.

Fried chicken , collard greens , beer selection

Contrary to their claims, I didn’t find the chicken spicy or anything better than what I’ve had in the MidWest

Chicken is good. The sides are nothing special. They forgot my 3rd piece so I got an extra when I brought it ton their attention.

Great chicken . Try the fried okra ?

Chicken was tasty and a little bit spicy . Fried okra was disappointing. Service was almost non-existent. Just order the fried chicken to go.

The chicken was great and the service was wonderful

Get the chicken . Really.

Fried is their strong suit

Great customer service and awesome fried chicken !

Mac and cheese , fried chicken , chess pie

All the chicken is spicy . Reconsider if you have young children

The chicken was hot out of the grease crispy and juicy

To spicy , if you don't like hot sauce you won't enjoy the food.

Be prepared to wait. This is not "fast food " by a long shot.

Yum. 3 piece is enough for two.

Fried chicken is a little bit salty.

Great service!

Just as good as in Memphis

The chicken !

Fried pickles !

Fried chicken

Great service! Our waitress was fantastic!! My nephew said he didn't understand why it was considered world famous, and I agreed. It was ok, but reminded me of KFC with just a little more spice.

The Fried Chicken was delicious. Very good customer service. Friendly staff .
