It closed suddenly in the last 2 years for no apparent reason and was reopened as the dive bar like a week later. No suprise that concept failed. Bud's is a big step up.

Bud's Broiler is one of the items on every "what would you want to add to Baton Rouge" list thread right below a Top Golf and a loop, but above a mass transit.

If I'm not mistaken that was the original Rotolo's right?

Bud's is the GOAT drunk food. It's a pretty good burger anyway but if I'm drunk I can kill it at the city park location. The boys and girls of Baton Rouge are getting a serious upgrade.

They're going to have to staff up on that late shift if so.

If they don't then they're retarded.

ETA: Advocate article says they'll be open until 3:00am on Friday and Saturday nights. They'll need to add thursdays if they want to profit off of the exchange crowds.

If it doesn't they're really hurting their business. Does the deaf baw with the dollar bill tattoo work at the clearview one still? He was hilarious

It did not but they have had really bad armed robberies recently, even the owner getting robbed at gunpoint at her own house. Sad, also the Dominoes there has changed locations because they had to retrofit the store, so it will only help Buds

Pretty sure the first Rotolos was where Mikes is. They moved across the railroad tracks 06-08ish.

Always wondered why they closed that location, seems like it was always packed when I went in there.

Rotolos was next to Circle K across the street from Fred's and all that. At least when I lived there. The Wednesday calzone special kept me alive in college
