Gus' Sir Beef Restaurant

Man, I came in about 20min before closing after an appointment and they were AMAZING. I'm Nonverbal and they were SO patient with me. They didn't have the meal I wanted to get my mother in law so they told me the closest thing to it. The food was hot and fresh, portions were amazing. In the rush of me trying to get out of there so they could close I forgot one of the sides. The staff ran out and brought it TO me!! I was bringing food to my kids' grandma for dinner and she loved it!! She told me a story about how the boys (owners sons) use to play together in her yard with her kids. This is something we don't get too often anymore. She has dementia so she forgets a lot of things. So it was nice to hear the story of the kids playing together and her eating there and enjoying.

How the hell have I lived in charlotte for almost 12 years and only tried this place for the first time last week?! The food here is absolutely delicious. It was so good last Tuesday, that we got to-go from here again today. Tuesday is my day because they have the mac n cheese on the menu. It's hard to find a good southern mac n cheese, but this place delivers. The first time I had the fried chicken, mac n cheese, & masked taters w/gravy. It also came with 2 biscuits, which were very good. And I had banana pudding for dessert. Tonight I had the grilled chicken which is served over rice with a yellow gravy, mac n cheese, and fried squash. Again, DELISH! Definitely try this place if you're anywhere near it. Also, the staff is soooooo nice and friendly.

OK - the building needs some maintenance badly (so bad, that my kids won't go eat there with me any more) - but the FOOD... the FOOD - this is THE BAR for home cooking food. Favorites are Beet Tips over rice, chicken & dumplings, roast beef, mashed potatoes, fried squash. Food is so good that even the building can only drop this place 1 star.
