It was originally opened by a man by the name Gus Mengulas. He was a football player for VT back in the day. He sold Lynnhaven, and opened Gus's Fishhouse at the 57th Street Ramada at the Oceanfront. It was the same menu, he took the Lynnhaven head cook with him. Lynnhaven went downhill after that. As Gus's became the premier seafood restaurant in VB. When I graduated from VT, before I got a real job, I bartender there for a couple of years and got to know Gus really well. He used to sit at the bar and watch old westerns and talk about his days playing for VT. He was a huge fan. Pretty sure he was a guard
