Some of the best Cajun and BBQ I've had in a very long time. The jambalaya is amazingly delicious and the portions of ribs are huge! Highly recommend trying this place

Every time I go I'm reminded of how awesome the food is, and why it's been so long since I've returned. The food is phenomenal and rich, no bad choices. You get nearly 2 meals per entree with the large portions and quantity and is def one of the last remaining establishments that haven't cut corners or increased prices. To top it all off, they're one of the only places in Prescott that has banned the overuse of plastic and styrofoam. All to-go is recyclable and paper bagged.

We had an amazing experience at Uncle Bud’s Place and my taste buds are still dancing from the incredible flavor of the barbecue! We ordered the smoked sausage, chuck roast, and Jamaican chicken, and every bite was packed with rich, smoky goodness. The cornbread was absolutely amazing, the fried okra was perfectly crispy, and the mac and cheese was really good too. Everything was absolutely delightful from start to finish. On top of that, the service was great. Five stars all the way. Highly recommend!

I wanted to have a real BBQ-diner, and omg... i got one! Took the Buds Big BBQ Platter with 3 meats. Best choice i could have made! 3 different meat choices, and 2 side dishes. I'm a fairly good eater, but even i had to throw in the towel. Meat was delicious, side dishes too. But i had to ask for a box to take it home with me. Best part is: tomorrow morning i've got myself a fine breakfast 😀
The restaurant itself isnt a super chique one, but these kind of places: i love it. Good service, very good food... beats the big franchises hands down!

It's Thanksgiving Eve 2025, and I visited Uncle Bud's this afternoon for the first time. OMG. WONDERFUL in every way. I ordered the spicy cajun sausage, the fried catfish special, and sides of coleslaw and red beans and rice, to GO. We all LOVED everything. The catfish was perfectly seasoned, crispy, thick, and delicious. The slaw was so fresh, it felt as if the vegetables had just come straight from the garden. A little kick to the slaw, some dill, and lots of black pepper. The red beans and rice are perfectly seasoned, and contain some delicious slices of sausage and a savory sauce. Fantastic. The spicy cajun sausage was perfect, with an aromatic smoky flavor, tender, and exactly on point. Portions are generous, and everything is of tremendously high quality and prices are extremely reasonable.
GO to Uncle Bud's if you like delicious barbecue and wonderful sides. The menu is extensive, with plates, sandwiches, salads, everything you can want. Uncle Bud's is a much-needed addition to the Prescott restaurant in. EAT IN, and TAKE-OUT, clean and cute and well-appointed, Staff is warm, courteous, and eager to please.

I'm a regular and a fan of the food at Uncle Bud's Place. Reading the negative reviews, I'm disappointed in the community who don't give this local business, run by a a few hardworking people, the courtesy that they're also only human. I wish the people who leave bad reviews would consider that these people work, as most of us do, VERY hard to run a business. Uncle Bud's is our favorite for their darned good food. Their service is also to be admired for such a small team (no shift changes, just the same few people every day no matter how busy). And of course mistakes or dissatisfaction will come up; however, the owner is VERY down to earth and loves their craft...meaning they would LOVE to hear some direct feedback and be given the chance to make something right if it's not. But instead, people keep it to themselves and then blast the business online. Gain some confidence, people, and talk to them! You'll learn that service-based workers who actually take pride in their work, like the people of Uncle Bud's Place, will LISTEN to your concerns and make it right. Why? Because feedback is healthy, progressive, and usually leads to a mutual solution. I support the owners of one of Prescott's gem local restaurants.
