Gus's BBQ South Pasadena

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 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.<br><br>Gus's is part of a family of restaurants independently owned and operated by Bicos Hospitality. Working at Bicos Hospitality means joining a family, and it’s one we’re always looking to expand. From our owners who go by Big Brother and Little Brother (no kidding, it’s on their business cards), down to every server and dishwasher, we’re all working together to create a workplace that fosters a family committed to excellence.<br><br>We pride ourselves on not only creating a friendly team, but building restaurants that elevate the guest experience. Our team members are committed to creating a warm, welcoming atmosphere rooted in the tradition of thoughtful hospitality, while bringing the best of their talents to their craft.
