Always great food and reasonable. In a nice shopping area in north Stockton. Good outdoor seating area and plenty of parking. One of the few seafood restaurants in town. Privately owned. They take reservations. They also have a bar. Nice, clean, casual atmosphere. Highly recommend.

Fresh halibut with breaded lemon capers. Big glass of iced tea and a fresh Garden salad. Love it. Great on this hot day. Today was the pasta special on the board and a crab shrimp Lou. Very good. What I needed.

It's been several years since I've been to Bud's, and it won't be years before I return! I had the shrimp stuffed avocado, and I could have that again-every other day! Between that amazing lunch, the great French bread and the great service, it was truly a wonderful lunch! There was a group of us, and everyone loved their choices, and our server did a super job! Wish I remembered her name! I truly think this is well worth every cent and a lot more! If you have the chance to eat there-DO IT!

Outdoor seating, food was ok for what we had. The seafood combo was good but for just fried pieces of seafood it was pretty pricey. Kids hamburger was huge so my littles split and shared.

This was dining outside. I will say the owner is the best. He came to our table before we left and greeted us and really left me feeling good. The food is good but we needed just a bit more seasoning on our food. But it was still good food.

The food was excellent. Our waitress was on top of things, kept our glasses full and had a good attitude. I ordered a shrimp and crab louie. The salad was piled high with crab and shrimp. They didn't skimp on the good stuff. Nice place.

So appreciate Bud's Seafood and staff for all your efforts to stay open and keep us safe. You're doing an awesome job. We had dinner with you friday night, as usual our date night was the best.💕🍷🍴

They have a lot of outdoor seating. Everyone was very nice. Got clam chowder in a bread bowl. It is highly recommended. It was very good!

I had lunch here with a friend. I used to work in Stockton but had never heard of Bud's so I was excited to try it out. I only eat seafood so this was the perfect place. I got a large shrimp and crab Louie salad and a half sandwich of the crab melt (you can get any sandwich as a half or whole FYI). The Louie salad was really good, all the veggies were fresh and crisp. There was a really good portion of shrimp and crab. The crab melt is open face (no bread on the top) and it was delicious. I love and still each cheese so this is exactly what I was looking for. The service was good, our waitress was really nice and she helped me pick the sandwich. One of the other waiters chatted with us about food while we were waiting. I'll be coming back another time, especially to try the clam chowder.

Service was pretty good. Shrimp was amazing, great flavor and cooked perfect. Rib eye was good, wasnt cooked how I asked but it was still good. Light salt and pepper and let the true flavor of the rib eye come out. The chicken was bland. Cooked good but had no flavor. Some seasoning or marinade would go a long way or something different if it was seasoned or marinated.

We had a wonderful dinner here last night! Bud's is one of "those" places.....too many great choices on the menu and special board to choose just one thing! Everyone loved their meal. The serving staff was very accommodating and friendly! Do not skip the calamari appetizer! It was absolutely delicious!

Food was excellent, but service was not. We were sat at a table with bread crumbs still on it. They are not cleaning tables after each customer with spray solution. I had to ask twice for a refill of water. We waited about 30 minutes for our food and the restaurant was not full of customers.

Service was on point, and the food was pretty good. I mistakenly ordered the Jambalaya special, which is ok, but don't expect it to compete with any authentic Louisiana recipe; that was my mistake. Cocktails were a generous pour, and portions were reasonable; both had reasonable prices. The atmosphere was old school but super laid back, and we were never rushed. I definitely would go back for a date night or to treat myself.

I just recently started going to this place, my friend who recently got a job there is a server. If you go there within the next couple of months. I definitely hope you have her as a server. Her name is Malina, she is very attentive, she will make your dining experience very enjoyable! I know she does mine every time. She is the reason that I go here! ( the other staff is very nice as well)

Best ever is Buds Beef so tender you can cut it with a fork. Staf is outstanding food is great. Every now and then when you order a cocktail (long Island is tea) way to sweet, told the server and she shrugged it off. Been going there for many many years and that happened to me twice.

Best seafood in Stockton. The servers were the best always checking on you making sure all your needs were to refill. They do take reservations so make sure to make one because it gets very crowded during dinner time.
