Gus Gus is a cozy, eclectic St. Paul bistro blending elevated comfort food with standout burgers, creative cocktails, and a lively, intimate vibe.
"Chef Kevin Manley and Anna Morgan’s St. Paul restaurant is an intimate, subterranean spot that’s by turns quirky, elegant, and exceptionally fun. From the drinks menu, Gus Gus’s trademark is Jell-O shots made with Aperol and Tattersall bitter orange, served as shimmery cubes on a plate. Highlights from the food menu include lengua sliders, tuna crudo, and sea bass with white bean ragu." - Justine Jones, Eater Staff
"This cozy neighborhood bistro is the perfect place to kick off the evening with a round of $4 Jell-O shots. Happy hour is offered daily from 4 p.m. to 5 p.m., with $1 off cocktails, $2 off wine by the glass, and $3 Hamms. The menu of bar snacks includes lengua sliders, fries with bagna cauda aioli, and a petite portion of sea bass." - Stacy Brooks, Alex Lodner, Eater Staff
