Bud's Louisiana Café offers a delightful escape to Creole cuisine right in San Diego! The blackened catfish was beautifully cooked and bursting with flavor, while the crayfish etouffee was creamy perfection. Cozy ambience and attentive service topped off our joyful dining experience - highly recommend the beignets for dessert!

At Bud's Louisiana Café, the Creole flavors are truly vibrant! 🌶️ I had the blackened catfish, fresh and perfectly balanced, while my friend couldn't stop raving about the rich crawfish étouffée.

The vibe is cozy yet trendy, making it perfect for a casual night out. Service is fast and friendly, with our waiter, Rigo, being especially attentive.

Don’t skip the beignets for dessert - they're out of this world! A solid choice for anyone craving authentic Louisiana cuisine in San Diego. Can’t wait to come back! 🍽️
