Really Good and large portions ????. If you get the burger beware lol its HUGE... we're already planning our next trip there ... only negative is that the girls calling out the names/numbers for pick up have to keep coming in and out of the building (if you decide to sit outside and eat) they should install a speaker system for inside & outside since the lunch rush is so busy and most ppl want to enjoy the shade and breeze ????... also parking is super easy here and you don't pay extra ????
I came here with my boyfriend for lunch and it doesn’t disappoint. I ordered the turkey avocado panini and he ordered the chicken ciabatta sandwich. Both were freshly made and delicious, their fries are crispy and have just enough paprika seasoning. The prices per each were about $14 with drinks plus tax.

Busy, busy, busy, wholesome sandwiches, great patty melt but under cooked Onion rings . Didn't try the burgers but everyone else seemed to be enjoying them. Ambiance is a good combination of modern and old LA

This restaurant is an iconic LA location. Gus’ is the epitome of an LA burger. You must try them if you are a burger aficionado. Their lentil soup is awesome as well whenever it’s available. Be ready for long lines if you come at lunch or rush hour. This place is loved by everyone who lives nearby

Ordered the panini pastrami sandwich.
No mustard no pickles, dry! Sandwich was absolutely disgusting! After one bite I threw it away. It wasn't even good enough to give to someone homeless.
The pastrami had so much fat on it. I felt like I was eating fat with little pieces of pastrami. So, not healthy as advertised. They also put some sort of spicy sauce on the bread when I asked for it to be dry. Worst pastrami sandwich I've ever had. I'd rather go to Brolly hut or Johnnie's. But to be fair, their Turkey burger is great, and their soups and Arnold Palmers tea.

Worth a try, I'm sure a pure American would love a meal, however if you're not used to eating 3000 calories in a single meal it can be a little tricky to review. The food is original as it can be and better than most places that claim to be an old American diner.

A great find! Large selection of menu items for breakfast, lunch, and dinner - see menu online. There are American, Mexican, and Greek influences all visible in their food. Despite the "Drive-In" name, there is pleasant seating inside, and a lovely covered outdoor patio with tables.
Food quality is excellent, and staff are friendly and helpful. Portion sizes are large. Just a great place to eat.

Every beautiful city has one or more of those places that are just as much about history and experience as the food. The original, looks like a junkyard, but it adds to the charm. Is not. It's clean but intentionally worn, so don't miss the automatic U-turn. Waiters are seasoned long timers who know what's good and what their customers want. Great for a huge, calorie-be-cursed traditional breakfast. You won't find quinoa or gluten-jam anything, and it's not the right place for picky people who always get their orders screwed up. But the food is a tough American cost - ham and eggs, steak, stick to the ribs things. Relax and enjoy. Any resident of Los Angeles who has not been here is not a resident of Los Angeles.

Is this the best kept secret in L.A. or what? If my coworker didn't put me onto this place I would have missed out on their fresh food and very fair prices. The meals come with a drink! I usually get double the fries instead of getting half salad, but the salad is good too. Burgers are classic, pretty huge, and their paninis are great. Great club sandwich, could only finish half in one sitting. Portions are generous but not grotesque. I go here at least once a month, if I lived closer it would probably be a weekly occasion.

I love Gus's!
