Customer Reviews
First time visiting this place, it was recommended by a friend We ordered the combo plate with chicken baby back ribs and beef brisket, I ordered the catfish. Everything was good, the corn bread is a must, is fresh made and is so good! The service is great, parking could be a little hard but is Pasadena so we expected that. We went in a Saturday not to late it was before 5pm so it wasn't that busy. Food portions are big we have enough leftovers for next day. We definitely will go back.
Had a yummy pulled pork sandwich yesterday. But I'm still missing the Fremont Burger 🍔 that they took off the menu years ago 😕. I'm fave items here are the pulled pork nachos and the deviled eggs. But really everything is good 👍 the service is always great!
Had such a great time at this BBQ spot! The brisket was flavorful, the ribs were tender, the mac & cheese was creamy and delicious, and that Kansas City spicy sauce was next level. Finished it off with some amazing butter cake and ice cream—perfect ending to a delicious meal! Also a plus is they have free parking just next to the restaurant.
We had an amazing lunch at Gus's BBQ! We were seated right away, and our waiter was quick to take our order. The food was absolutely delicious and filling. If you're looking for great barbecue from a local favorite, you have to check out Gus's. The atmosphere was lively but not intrusive. You might have some difficulty finding parking doing busy hours.
Old school vibes but well kept and clean. Our server Phillip N is great. Food wise, ribs and smoked sausages are tender and juicy, hot chicken is also flavorful, all the sides are good. The only thing is the brisket is kinda dry. But overall the experience was great and good value for money. Highly recommended.
