Gus's is way better

Age is definitely a big reason I'd never plan on going again, or maybe it's just eating healthier overall... but yeah, I'd hate myself for several hours after eating all the deep fried stuff.

Agree with all this but Gates lives on for me because I buy the sauce and put it on plates from places who have better meat. I have a great neighborhood bbq spot in LA. They have a great pit master, but their sauce is a tragedy. To their credit they don't get mad when I bring a little bottle of Gates for myself into their joint.

The best items aren't fried chicken. Steaks are great but my personal favorite is the catfish also the salmon is very good. Pork chops are nice along with chicken fried steak is hard to beat. I could eat the hamburger steak with mashed potatoes every day its that good. You sure you weren't at KFC?

I guess I could comment why comment what you don't know. Most people that go to Strouds don't get the chicken. Unless you have the whole family and get the family chicken dinner. When they quit raising and butchering there own chickens it became just fried chicken. I can fry my own Hudson or Tyson chicken bird.

I think you can get better fried chicken at Rye, Lula Southern Cookhouse, or even Char Bar.

For a chain, Eddie V’s has superb food and service.

But, for local spots, here’s just a few favorites that I highly recommend.

Farina
The Town Company
Lula Southern Cookhouse
Le Fou Frog
Grunauer
Cafe Provence
The Majestic
Novel

Good list here....especially Cafe Provence getting a shout.

I am pretty torn on Lula I know it is popular and I have not had a bad experience there per say but what you get for money is just a bad value propisition. I don't have any problem spending money on a good meal but these are comfort food staples and for the price it is good but nowhere near *that* good.
