Since 1946, Gus’s has been serving the good folks of South Pasadena (and beyond!) true Southern hospitality and some of the best real pit BBQ around. Housed on historic Route 66, Gus’s is a tribute to Southern life, where family, tradition and celebration are of the utmost importance. A menu filled with traditional Southern cooking and authentic, wood-smoked BBQ is complemented by an impressive range of whiskies, wines, cocktails and local craft beers. Today, Gus’s is a space for a warm welcome, a cold mint julep, and a big plate of the best flavors from the American South and Midwest. You’ll leave knowing exactly why Gus’s food has been hailed, “….so good that we found ourselves eating more than we’d imagined” by S. Irene Virbila, Los Angeles Times and was named one of the top 10 BBQ restaurants on the west coast by Sunset Magazine.

Food and service were top notch. We wondered why we hadn’t been back sooner. The only negative is the noise level. It would be nice if it was a bit quieter. Understand it was a Saturday night, and there were large groups

The food tasted good, however, it wasn't the quality I remember in years past. The seating was great. The greeters were outstanding. We were seated right away. With that being said, I highly recommend the Open Table way of making reservations. When reserving a table we checked that we would be celebrating a birthday. Upon arrival at Gus's BBQ, the Maitre d verbally acknowledged that we were celebrating a birthday and the server also verbally acknowledged it and that was it. We were surprised because why ask and then not offer a complimentary dessert even just a dish of ice cream.

If you are ever in South Pasadena and want some good barbecue, just drop in at Gus’s. We always go for the pork ribs and fried chicken. Service is good. It is great being able to order take out but I like it better when I sit down and enjoy a great meal at the restaurant.

Their takeout business was overwhelming their restaurant business. Our French fries arrived cold. Our waiter was very good but given that we were dining and the take out was going to have to be rewarmed anyway, we should have come first.

Had a reservation. Arrived timely. Requested a booth in the main dining room. 5 empty tables and my party of 2 seated in a communal booth where strangers are seated directly next to you and facing you. Asked hostess to please be seated in one of the many empty booths. She had to go see what she could do. Server was an absolute piece of work. He was rude, inattentive, not welcoming, and unkind. I hope I never come across him again. The bus boy was friendly, helpful, and kind. I hope he becomes a server. Food was okay, usually it is great. Chili was bad. I order chili often and it was awful last night. Fries were not fresh. Ribs were really good. Last night was a miss. Usually this is a great spot.

The waiter we had was not great. I told him I did not like citric-like IPAs and could he recommend one. He brought me a citric IPA. Fortunately, a young lady server came by with some of our meal. I mentioned to her the issue and she resolved it very quickly. Meanwhile, our water forgot my friend's beverage and had to ask twice more. She also helped us in other areas, I tipped her separately. My friend paid for our meal, I do not know what he tipped our waiter, hopefully, it wasn't much.

I love BBQ. I love BBQ BabyBackRibs... I was disappointed in the ribs. The Brisket was decent. The Pulled Pork was the best out of the 3 we ordered. The cornbread is the bomb.. all our sides were ok... not exceptional. I was hoping for it to be better than it was. And it was a bit too chilly in the restaurant. Would I go back ~ maybe.....
