Captain Gus's Steak Shop — Restaurant in Lancaster

I saw recently looked at the reviews and saw an injustice I feel the need to speak on. A dissatisfied customer referred to my friend Nick the owner as prejudice against black people. This couldn't be further from the truth. I've been eating there for years and I'm a black female. Nick is my friend and he has many friends of all races. I've been around him socially for years. It's time that people stop using their race as an excuse for everything that goes wrong in their life. As a strong, black female with many friends of all races, such inflammatory assumptions incite me. Especially if you don't know the person. Nick is a sweetheart who would do anything for anyone regardless of color etc...get it together Ms. Broadnax. Capt. Gus' restaurant is a part of lancaster city for years for all races. Nick, I'm sorry this one person gave you an inaccurate review and as a female of color who has known you and your funny and sweet self for many years, please know that you are loved and your customer service is top notch. Love ya and thanks for being my friend. Sonya...

Finally stopped in here this afternoon, despite having considered it a few times since I moved to Lancaster a year ago. Ordered a steak with sauce and onions and was admittedly a bit surprised Sauce meant a deliciously savory marinara rather than Wiz/cheese sauce like I'm used to, but different certainly didn't mean bad. Service was quick and efficient, and I texted my dad while I waited that I found Lancaster's Texas Inn (a different hole in the wall burger joint in Lynchburg, Virginia) We're both looking forward to visiting Capn. Gus's the next time he visits. This place continues to support my sentiment that the best burgers, steaks, hoagies, etc, come from little hole in the wall local joints rather than big chains or fancier restaurants. 5/5,...

Everything is fresh and tasty! I have been going to this place for many years and now that I have moved away, I find myself craving their cheesesteaks even more!

Nick and his staff are always friendly and attentive to their diverse clientele. It doesn’t matter who you are, when you come into this place, they make sure you are taken care of ASAP. Sometimes you will have to wait in line due to their popularity, but rest assured, it will be well worth the wait! There is a reason why they have been in business for so long and it is simply good fresh food that is cooked to order – None of that prepared ahead of time crap!

And yes, I will be going back every...
