Time Out says

This chain’s near-total conquest of the South—it has locations in 15 cities, including Memphis, Oxford and Atlanta—is the first clue that Gus’s “world famous” fried chicken is going to be something special. The second clue comes with that initial bite: A crunchy, well-seasoned crust gives way to moist, tender meat, and you’ll want to reach for drumstick after drumstick. Don’t sleep on Gus’s other menu items, either—the fried okra, fried green tomatoes, and fried pickles are all exemplary, too.
