Before there was Bud’s Louisiana Cafe, there was a little restaurant in New Orleans called Feelings Cafe.

In 1979, Bud took a chance on a dream that would eventually grow into a lifetime of restaurants, countless memories, and the food we still proudly serve today.

Every plate has a story. This is where ours began.

❤️ From New Orleans to San Diego—thank you for being part of the journey.

This might be the most underrated thing on the menu.

Blackened catfish, pan-seared and finished in the oven until perfectly flaky. Served with white rice, green beans, and topped with our house-made jalapeño tartar sauce that adds just the right amount of heat.

If you’re looking for something lighter than fried seafood without sacrificing flavor, this is the move.
