Out here munching on a slice of some of the best cheese pizza and one of the best burgers in Santa Monica. Do your taste buds and your wallet a favor and swing in there you will not regret it. Ps the truffle fries are the right amount of flavor and not overpowering like most places make em!
This was THE BEST place to eat . I had a margarita pizza and a Cesar salad. The food tasted of the HIGHEST quality the service was absolutely wonderful the menu option is endless. My favorite was the cesar salad the owner personally makes it himself. He used Asiago and parmasean imported straight from Italy (and it reflected in taste) and the dressing is homemade. I’m very picky about my salad having too much or too little dressing and it had THE PERFECT amount of dressing. My salad was not soggy and the produce was fresh. I would recommend and definitely go back ! 10/10
Awesome place with a great selection
An amazing place with a pretty cool owner and very kind staff. Highly recommend their breakfast burritos! These guys will make anything for you as long as they have the ingredients! Definitely recommend calling 5-10 mins ahead for faster pickup times!
10/10 for having fresh ingredients and thoughtful, attentive workers. You can choose really anything off the menu and it be
I work in the area and eat out regularly—Bud’s breakfast items are both excellent and a value. In particular, the Spanish omelette is outstanding. Also, the long-time owner has taken my order every time and is kind and accommodating. This is spot is an under appreciated neighborhood gem.
Little shitholes like this always have the best food. I'll be coming back for sure. I hope they don't change anything.
Excellent deli and fast service!
Found this gem back in August and haven't been able to last a single week without Buds Deli! Although I'm still working my way through the full menu; the Italian sub, Tri-Tip sandwich, fresh pastries, and Jaclyn's grapefruit salad, are a few among my "Everyone Must Try" list! Tomorrow I can't wait to try the breakfast burrito that one of their frequent customers were raving about when I came in! Aside from the delicious food, I must admit that part of my obsession with this deli is due to the genuine excitement I see from the owner, Gary. He's always so eager to personally greet his guests and loves to tell me about the new recipes he's currently working on. Overall, this place scores a 10/10 for me--great quality, perfect portion sizes, reasonable prices, and great service.
