Gus's World Famous Fried Chicken - Chicken restaurant in Houston - 1815 Washington Ave, USA

We started off with fried pickles, and they were outstanding. I order the three chicken tenders with slaw and beans. The chicken was tender but the fried batter wasn’t crispy. We ordered fries that were kind of soft and soggy. Our waitress was fantastic and the dining room was clean and comfortable. Plenty of parking.

Great fried chicken packed with a kick. The food is simple yet tasty. Compared to most places the fried chicken breast here is juicier and tender with a slight crunch to the skin. So even picking the white meat, the bites are excellent. If you like collard greens, upgrade one of your sides to it. The collard green is cooked tender with a hint of meaty taste - not greasy. Baked beans are yummy and sweet. Happy eating

Started off with the fried pickles and ranch which were fried to perfection and had an excellent dill flavor. Ordered three chicken tenders, beans, and Cole slaw. Chicken was rubbery, hard to eat, and not crisp. Coleslaw and beans were too sweet. The service was quick and efficient. Would go back for the pickles, but elsewhere for the chicken and sides.

We’ve been to Gus’s a lot of time. Their food is consistent and it’s a great place for casual eats that hits the spot for 3 generations of our family. They have an awesome 4 piece wing special with 2 sides for about $12. The kids meals are good value too and filling for our growing boys. We like they have a 2 piece drum option for kids. Gus’s chicken has a thin flavorful crispy coating with just a slight kick to it. My husband always gets the fried okra and potato salad. My go to is fried green tomatoes, 3 piece dark meal, and a warm pecan pie with ice cream on the side so it doesn’t become a puddle on the plate. Can’t wait to go back!

And here is outstanding it reminds me of my mothers, but it actually has some flavor! Very crispy I ordered two dark meat pies they were cooked perfectly. The coleslaw was similar to KFC, but tasted actually more fresh baked beans were regular old baked beans didn’t make my stocks go up and down but I thought they were pretty good Ice tea was outstanding and I read a lot of ice tea so if it’s outstanding, I mean you got to try this place awesome stuff great fried chicken I’m glad I found it so that’s cool. Our servers name was Ray and she was outstanding very kind very helpful refilled my tea without even me asking wonderful service here!

Literally best fried chicken I’ve had in while. It tastes like a home cooked meal and felt like a warm hug. My boyfriend and I got the 4 piece tender meal with the red beans and rice and coleslaw. For desert, we tried the sweet potato pie and the chess pie. Both were delicious and tasted homemade. Would definitely recommend and absolutely coming back 👍

The service is pretty good, the chicken is good, but it was tougher/drier than expected, I would prefer that it was dripping with sauce. The only real issues at this location is the limited parking and the food is a bit slow coming out. That said, I did like it, but there are other places to go to before returning.

I stopped in for a visit since I’m in search of the best fried chicken in Houston. Food overall was decent. Fried chickens slightly over. Seasoning had a small bite. The sides were amazing but service was non existent. When customers have to get up for refills, there should be a discount to our meal
