Cozy atmosphere, super friendly bartender, and there’s a cat! Food was a big let down, got a house salad with chicken. $26 dollars. And on top of that the chicken tasted like fish, do not order anything with chicken.

Buffa's is an eccentric neighborhood place that has been in NOLA for over 80 years. Not a tourist destination exactly, but a place that certainly bears the footprints of local New Orleans history. Very casual and unassuming in every respect. You can stop in and relax here.

Jay is an amazing Bartender in the back room with live music. The were quite a few people for the live event. He took care of everyone courteously and in a professional organized manner. Always made sure everyone’s water glass was full; very nice. The Blue burger subbing salad for fries is my favorite. In my opinion one of the best burgers in town; excellent salad, too. And Great local live piano.

I came here twice two days in a row , David served us the first night was good company made small talk and made the experience enjoyable the drinks were well made . I also enjoyed the BLT and cheese curds side not if you like your bacon limp ask for it otherwise everything was great . Second night my husband got the Gotham burger was kinda similar to a mushroom Swiss burger just with a cool name , I got the smash burger it wa pretty tasty James was our server this time he was friendly attentive and right on time . I recommend for a quick low scale vibe and good service .

Visiting from out of town and got the redfish smothered in crawfish sauce. It was like an etoufee but tasted almost like a chowder. Insanely good. Their Boudin was also amazing. 10/10
