Gus's Chop House

"Apps & entrees were delicious. Try the hash brown and duck fat potatoes! Our group had the NY strip, pork porterhouse, and burgers. All was terrific! Staff and sommelier were friendly and helpful."

"It was my first time at Gus's Chop House, and for sure I will come back! It's been a long time since I've been to a restaurant where the service was sooooo good. All the staff were friendly and paid attention to every detail. The food was amazing and the atmosphere cozy and lively."

"GET THE PRIME RIBS if you are at Gus for its Sunday roast. AMAZING food at some of the best price tags in the city. Also love their wine list - had two bottles there and both were good. I also recommend getting their special burger, the pork chophouse, and basque cheesecake."

"In the heart of Brooklyn's Carroll Gardens, a neighborhood celebrated for its gastronomic vibrancy and historic charm, Gus’s Chop House stands as a monument to culinary dedication and craftsmanship. Marrying the grandeur of European chop houses with the familial warmth of casual bistros, this establishment beckons one and all to partake in a dining experience that feels both grounded in tradition and passionately inventive. Their mastery in culinary arts is palpable in each shareable appetizer, offering a symphony of flavors which tenderly segue to the following acts that are no less remarkable. It is the meat dishes that stand as titans in this culinary narrative, a befitting crown to its European chop house inspiration. The pork chop and the steak bring with them a rich decadence, echoing stories of the finest, meticulously sourced ingredients brought to life with revered culinary techniques. There is an unspoken grace in the brown butter basting, a gesture that imparts a rich depth of flavor, elevating the meat to celestial heights of gastronomic joy. Yet, the conversation of meat at Gus’s is far from complete without mentioning what is possibly one of the best burgers gracing NYC. This isn't merely a burger but a thoughtfully crafted blend of ground beef and pork adorned with cornichons and parmesan. The patty exhibits an understanding of the sublime, a testament to the care and knowledge infused in choosing the perfect blend. Accompanied by fries — golden beacons of crisp perfection, thick-cut and generous — the burger showcases an effortless marriage of refinement and comfort, establishing itself as an imperative experience for any culinary enthusiast. The finesse of the culinary journey finds its harmonious complement in a Wine List that not only stands as the best in Carroll Gardens but beckons to be renowned much beyond. Offering treasures from the Old World, the list carries within it a curated homage to vineyards that have mastered the art of winemaking through generations. Every sip promises a narrative, a journey through famed terrains offering a perfect accompaniment to the meal, enhancing each note and offering a depth of complexity that is both invigorating and comforting. Gus's Chop House is not just a dining establishment, but a living, breathing entity that carries within its walls a pulse that is vibrant, warm, and unapologetically honest. It’s a homage to the age-old traditions of European chop houses, a celebration of the casual bistro vibe, and a testament to the potential of a neighborhood restaurant to not just serve food, but to offer an experience that is rich, satisfying, and heartwarmingly authentic."

"This may have been one of the best burgers I’ve ever had. Seriously this burger is juicy and savory, the pickles and sauce add a bit of sweetness and sourness and the flavors meld together beautifully. Some fresh heirloom tomatoes as a side dish and a pulpo (octopus) appetizer with the burger for two was sufficient!"
