Gus's

"The burger at Gus’s is best when shared. The rich patty is made from a blend of pork, chuck, and dry-aged beef, then topped with raw and caramelized onions, aged cheddar, and cornichons. The burger costs nearly $30, but that includes some excellent french fries." - Robert Sietsema, Eater Staff

"Gus’s started as an approachable neighborhood steakhouse serving dishes that can border on enthralling, including hash browns with trout roe and chicken a la plancha; it has since transitioned to a menu that includes pasta; Monday through Thursday, the restaurant is running a deal at $56 per person — an appetizer, main, and dessert, served family-style." - Eater Staff

"Chris McDade remains overseeing Gus’s Chop House in Carroll Gardens. McDade announced that his team has been repositioning Gus’s Chop House to meet the neighborhood's needs. Changes include shedding 'chop house' from the name, menu changes adding more pastas, and a more relaxed decor. The restaurant offers a $56 per person deal Monday through Thursday." - Emma Orlow

"This buzzy chophouse has quickly found footing and favor in Carroll Gardens. Far from the stuffiness of typical steakhouses, the candlelit dining room has its charms, and neighbors are sure to crowd around the bar and order the off-menu burger. As for on-menu, the kitchen showcases surprising creativity in winners like “leek a la wedge” or hash brown with smoked trout roe. Pork porterhouse is the main attraction, though all proteins from lamb loin to the NY strip are finished with a compelling brown butter sauce. Sides like sweet potato pave are equally thoughtful. All the while, wine enthusiasts will find plenty to dig into on this finely curated list stacked with star producers mostly from France." - Michelin Inspector
