★★★★★ 5.0 Gregory Noell · Jul 2025

We had the Chicken Alfredo and Lump Crabcakes. The food was absolutely delicious, and the service was amazing. Live music while enjoying amazing food makes this establishment stand out and a must to come back to again. If you find yourself near Penns Landing, then you have to make this a must stop. You will not be disappointed.

Very friendly staff. When we went, it was just opening on Saturday. Live music outside was canceled for the day. The snow crab and blue crab were done right. The corn on the cob is amazing.

★★★★☆ 4.0 Titi · Jun 2022

Pleasantly surprised by Gus's. We went during the week and found out it was all you can eat crab night. The crabs were delicious, the server was very friendly and the drinks were really good. The stuffed flounder was dry and not my favorite, but everything else was good enough that we will definitely be back!

★★★★★ 5.0 Maria Martinez · Aug 2025

Off the beaten path but so worth it. We were actually heading to another place when all of sudden we see this place so we decided to go in. When I tell you the food was excellent, service amazing and atmosphere was awesome. They have indoor outdoor seating, they had a live band, several bars and clean bathrooms. Its in the middle of a corn field and only open Thursday through Sunday I believe. It was delicious. We will definitely become regulars oh and the crabs were really good.

★★★★☆ 4.0 Cindy Cole · May 2025

We always have a good time at Gus's. They have good food and the bands are very good so the music is great, but when they play inside you may want to consider ear protection. Also, a great place to go on a Saturday or Sunday afternoon during the summer for good food and great music. Wait staff are usually very busy and sometimes overwhelmed so be nice and tip well.
