The Grill Is Fired Up At Newly Opened Gus & Andy's In Montrose

There's no place like Montrose. So close to world famous Los Angeles yet a world away. So aware of the present trends yet glorying in the past. A place where you can stroll tree lined streets and enjoy real, in person boutique shopping. A place that showcases a variety of foods from aspiring chefs and restauranteurs with a vision. But a little something was missing. Until now.

Finally! After a tremendously long wait through pandemics and permits the much anticipated GUS & ANDY'S is now OPEN! Hip hip hurray!

Everything about their style is designed to be easy. Upon entering you will find an irresistible comfort food menu posted above the counter where smiling faces are ready to take your order.

There are two levels of seating with well thought out nooks and crannies complimented with framed photos that tell a story. Clean. Modern. Yet homey.

Now feast your eyes on this sight. Fresh cut wood that goes along with the custom grill, the heart of this restaurant. Yes, Santa Maria inspired BBQ can now be had right here in Montrose!

It's a happy day when you see your server headed your way with a plate of perfectly seasoned tri tip, from the wood smoked grill, layered over french fries with a side of ranch.

Can you taste it?

Take it from these two, it's a jaw dropping experience!

Local resident, Montrose lover, and long time restauranteur TOM CHRISTOPOULOS, pictured here with one of his three sons, has come up with the perfect Montrose menu and venue. Breakfasts, which more choices have been needed in town, include egg dishes, pancakes, pork belly, avocado toast, and biscuits & gravy. Lunch and dinner features tri tip, fish & chips, grilled cheese, chicken strips, burgers, hot dogs, chopped salads, tacos and more! Irresistible sides include grilled veggies, fried zucchini, Montrose fries and chili. And to top it all off shakes, secret recipe donut holes and a dessert case. There is also a fully stocked bar with specialty cocktails like the Honolulu inspired Tiki Torch.

GUS & ANDY'S is located at the corner of Honolulu Ave. and Verdugo. It's destined to be a big hit!
