Buffa's Bar Restaurant - New Orleans

Buffa's is a great place for live music, good food and beverages at reasonable prices. We sat at the bar and Peter took care of both of food and drink orders. The music was by Dave Ferrato and he played mostly original songs with a few covers mixed in. He had a sax player the entire time as well as a drummer towards the end. One of the hidden gems in New Orleans.

Went here on a whim, sat at front bar, we could hear the music. Have patience during the jazz brunch, they are very busy and food takes awhile. Totally worth it. One of our best meals and definitely our best bfast while in NOLA. Go relax and enjoy the people you're with!

Wonderful place for good music and great food. Relaxed, neighborhood atmosphere. Friendly wait staff. Always a good time!

One of my all time favorites in the city. They always have great local artists and the staff are so friendly! I would definitely recommend Buffa's

It was my first visit to New Orleans, and my husband hadn’t been back in over 30 years. We arrived at our accommodation around 9:00 PM and were extremely hungry. A quick search online led us to Buffa's, the closest spot within walking distance that was still open (24/7!). Despite the late hour, Huggy the bartender welcomed us with a smile and handed us menus. When it came time to order, he even joined us at our table to chat about where we were from and to suggest some menu items. He recommended the red beans and rice, claiming they were the best in New Orleans, and my husband wholeheartedly agreed—they were among the most delicious he’s ever had. My burger was cooked to perfection—extra well done—and was quite tasty as well. We spent less than an hour there, in and out quickly. If you’re looking for a relaxed, off-the-beaten-path place with excellent food that won’t break the bank, I definitely recommend Buffa's!
