NOT FAMILY FRIENDLY AT ALL!! After 10 seconds in your stablishment to ask where the show was, the bartender replied "I don't care" because we had teenageers with us. We left without seeing the show. So rude. DO NOT RECOMMEND.
We were one of two families I saw tonight that paid to see a show at a place that advertises “family friendly” on their site, and then left without seeing the show they paid for because they got insulted and laughed at by the bartender. I got ripped off. My kids were insulted to their face by a jerk that works here. To hell with this place. Thanks for being the low point of my vacation.
Skip this experience.
This may have been the best burger I have ever had 🤤 service was awesome. A hidden gem for sure.

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.
