The original Gus's is not in Memphis.

If you're from Memphis you ought to know where Mason, Tennessee is. That is the actual location of the original Gus's. All other locations are franchises, including Memphis.

I’ve been to the one in Memphis and it was just okay, the one in Southaven was about the same. Definitely overrated.

It's good, but it costs about twice as much Popeyes. It's nothing close to twice as good as Popeyes.

All I know is that the first time I ate at the one in Memphis it was incredible. Lived up to all the hype and then some.

Agreed, it was definitely up there with the best fried chicken I’d ever had. Recently had it again at the Metairie location and it was good but not at the same level as the one in Memphis.

I've never had Gus', but KFC is the worst to me.




KFC hasn't been any good since the 80's.

Popeyes is inedible garbage

Gus’ is worth 10 times the price of Popeyes

The one in Bham may have the best fried chicken I’ve ever had. It’s amazing on hangover Sunday.
