Gus's World Famous Fried Chicken traces its roots to over 60 years ago in Mason, Tennessee, where Napoleon "Na" Vanderbilt created a recipe that brought people together through love for fried chicken. As the business expands, it remains committed to upholding these traditions by serving exceptional fried chicken.

At Gus's, the emphasis is on fresh, never frozen chicken, hand-cut potatoes, and quality ingredients to ensure a superior dining experience every time. The restaurant offers a full-service experience, where guests can enjoy blues music, sweet tea, and exceptional fried chicken in a welcoming atmosphere.

Guests can expect a menu that goes beyond just chicken, with delicious sides like mac n cheese and beans, all served with a dash of Southern hospitality. Whether dining in, carrying out, or opting for delivery, Gus's aims to leave every guest satisfied, one piece of chicken at a time.
