This may have been the best burger I have ever had 🤤 service was awesome. A hidden gem for sure.
I just love this classic place! The Jazz Brunch is a wonderful tradition that is an experience all of its own!
Brought an out of town friend here since it’s in my neighborhood. She absolutely loved it and even had the chance to meet a local celebrity, bob. (The cat).
One of the guys from back of the house, mike, was such a sweetheart and made boudin balls for us so we could feed bob on our walk back home. Even though he was clocking out.
Moments like that make me feel blessed to live in this neighborhood. Thanks again.

Buffa's Bar & Restaurant is a friendly neighborhood spot on Esplanade, serving as a bar, restaurant, and music venue. The atmosphere is amazing, with a great local chill dive vibe. The food is really good, including the buffa burger, which came out perfect when ordered medium rare. The cheeseburger is better than anything on Bourbon Street, and the baked beans were phenomenal. A seasoning called Slap Ya Mama is available. The bleu cheese coleslaw was described as "revolutionary". The bartender is very friendly and makes the best cocktails. There is live music in the back at night, with great old rock and outlaw country music playing. A cat walked through the place a few times. Don’t miss this gem of a find.
