"I fly around the USA and have always wanted to try Gus' World Famous Chicken on an overnight. Finally tried it in my hometown in downtown Mesa, AZ through Uber Eats. It did NOT disappoint! Loved it! I went big with the eight piece."

"First time order, very delicious chicken, definitely not hot at all in terms of spice, but the spice that is applied gives a great flavor. The right amount of spice in my opinion for the average person. The Slaw slaps too."

- Wing$3.50We start by marinating the chicken in a special blend of spices, which helps infuse the meat with flavor and keeps it moist and tender during the frying process. Then we dredge the chicken on our super-secret signature batter and fry it to perfection
