I was traveling for work in Monroe, so I decided to try this local favorite for lunch. I heard good things from some customers about this place.
Gus Family Restaurant is a modest place off the main road a bit. If you know that going in, the look of the building will not be a disappointment.
The wait staff was friendly, if not a tiny bit over worked. My waitress was hustling my entire visit but I never felt like I had to wait on anything.
The food came out fast. I got the hand breaded fried chicken with white gravy. It was a bit bland, but that is typical for this type of establishment.
However the meal was a very good deal considering the prices. Way better than fast food, and cost the same.
I worked recommend this place to the budget friendly eater, but be prepared for modest surroundings and you'll want to add salt.
