Mouton's Bistro & Bar

The food was great and our waitress was so kind and she checked on us the perfect amount. I ordered the eggs Benedict with substitutions: sourdough toast instead of English muffin and sausage patties instead of ham steaks. It was wonderful! I will definitely be going back to try more dishes!

Great little place. Service was excellent. Drinks were awesome. Ordered 3 different appetizers which all were amazing. The main entrees were plentiful, and looked amazing. We just felt that all the main dishes were too spicey and we all like a little kick. We understand that it's Cajun and Cajun has generally a kick to it but it really could have been kicked down a notch. Other than that it's a cool place and definitely worth a visit.

I'm a borderline fiend for good red beans, and Mouton's does it better (far better) than maybe anywhere else I've been. The Frenchuletta is amazing as well. Been ordering takeout from here for years but last night was the first time my wife and I ever dined in, and though this shouldn't be a shock, getting the food "fresh from source" somehow made it substantially better... Even though just from takeout it was already some of the best Cajun food I've had anywhere period. Up there with the easiest 5 stars I've given.

We are here on the way for a ride to lake creek. The food here good.. waffles n chicken is must try. French toast is average with corn bread.

We decided to try a new spot for breakfast and discovered this little jem, 8 minutes from home. What a great find! We sat at the bar, and the server was super friendly. We shared the Eggs Benedict and French Toast. It was the perfect pairing of savory and sweet. It’s the perfect neighborhood spot for small gatherings, although they do have a few larger tables. It’s just kind of a smaller restaurant in general. The outdoor seating looked nice as well. We will definitely be back to try more breakfast dishes, as well as lunch and dinner!

Delicious food, fantastic service and a comfortable homey (not the clown) atmosphere. My wife and I have been coming to Mouton's for years. First the Leander location (RIP, we'll miss you Leander Mouton's ) and now the Cedar Park location. My wife absolutely LOVES the corn beef hash. I love a lot of things here. The country fried potatoes and Pain Perdu (French toast) are particularly delicious, so I definitely recommend those! Autumn was our server last time we were in and the service was magnificent. Eggfficient and on point. I love the fun and unique coffee cups! Again, very homey (not the clown). They even have a pool table and some dart boards if you come with friends and are looking for a group activity outside of shoving yummy foods in your face.

Mouton's has the best service and the highest quality food in Cedar Park. They will also customize anything on the menu for you, so if Cajun is not your thing, do not be deterred! Whether you want a tasty breakfast, quick lunch, dinner out with the whole family, or a fun date night, Mouton's is the perfect choice. We are always greeted with a welcome, smile, and the friendliest service! The burgers are absolutely amazing, as are the fries. I often get either grilled chicken or steak as well, and it is always perfection. Their salads are also superb! We frequently bring extended family in for breakfast because it is fabulous, and their bacon is the best I have had! Abbi is the sweetest and most amazing bartender! You can't go wrong with choosing Mouton's! Reasonable prices, quality food, and even a rewards program! Stop in and enjoy!

I hate to write a poor review about a place that has excellent food, but in this case I felt it was warranted. The story started when ordering our food the waitress noted that appetizers were half off. That sounded good and my wife ordered hushpuppies. Later, when I got the bill we were charged full price - no explanations or acknowledgement. I believe they (the waitress?) was trying to slip it past us. I asked and was told it was a mistake because hushpuppies did not count for happy hour discount by the waitress - which clarified that there was not any misunderstand between us and the waitress. She offered to go to the manager to get it adjusted. The manager declined. How can you offer to sell something at one price and then when you get the bill are told you have to pay another? As a side note - the service is slow, which is consistent with other visits. Excellent food. Abysmal treatment.

My wife and I are in town for the month working and this little place was just around the corner. Tried it out and was more than completely satisfied. Food was excellent and the beer was cold. Service was outstanding! Not busy mid-afternoon when we arrived and was warmly greeted by the bartender and a few locals sitting at the bar. We chose to sit on the nice patio. Don't mistake this as some neighborhood bar with typical bar fare. They have a great selection on their menu that is sure to please. We will make this our go to place while we are here. Good Cajun style cuisine.

Per review below: I love moutons and Im a regular. I was here tonight and the food was great, the restaurant was clean, and the service was phenomenal. As always. Unfortunately I overheard the conversation happening behind me. Brailee and Abbi did everything they could to fix the situation as they were upset about everything, and comped the entire bill for them. Ive seen them here before and theyre always upset and they always complain about something. I've had the chicken fried steak multiple times and it's delicious.

We were excited to try this place as we were missing some Cajun food from our time down south. We decided to come for brunch and arrived and seated at 10:30A and at the time of this writing it is 11:36A. We are still waiting for our food which is not a big lift. Pretty much French toast and a breakfast plate. There are definitely people here at the restaurant but it isn't a line out the door. How it takes over one hour is absolutely atrocious. Bacon, sausage, ham and eggs really shouldn't take that long. At least not an hour. Definitely no excuse to this. And a server just told me 5 more minutes. We shall see. Stay away if you don't want to waste your whole day. Especially for the price of what they are charging, this better be the best eggs we've ever had. Customers are now ready to walk This place is a disaster right now. I can't even imagine a busy lunch service with much more complex dishes. Get it together or this restaurant will be in trouble. A 4 star overall rating is definitely deceiving. 1-2 stars at best.

Mixed review here. We went for lunch - good lunch special menu. They were terribly understaffed but our server was working hard and very nice so we didn't mind the wait. Food was very good. Now for the bad. We were seated in the side room away from the bar, and it was grossly dirty. They have hanging lights and ceiling fans with visible caked on dirt - so this is a long term issue. It was so nasty that it made it hard for me to be comfortable with the food. The food is great, but management has to address the staffing issue and sanitation before we would go back.

We made plans to meet at Mouton's mighty pelicans were playing one of my favorite Cajun bands. The guys are fabulous. We were seated without everyone having to be there. We ordered off of the happy hour starter menu five dollars off each appetizer love that I did not have a cocktails, but I think they had a cocktail special as well. Waiter was OK. Food was not the best this time always a fun atmosphere. Price was right. Thank you again Mouton's.

This was my first experience here, and I had heard good things. First, the service wasn't great. Not many options for anyone avoiding wheat, and almost none for garlic and onion intolerances. I decided to just go for it, and ordered a favorite dish, the crawfish étouffée. It wasn't very good, definitely not worth the stomach ache I got for eating it. The spicing was rather bland, with the bitterness of green pepper dominating everything else.

This place has a real homey feel to it serving plenty options for carnivores and vegetarians. We ordered the shrimp and grits 3/5 and the French toast with a fried egg. 5/5 Shrimp and grits was okay once the hot sauce was added but by itself the grits were bland and shrimp seemed to be boiled which was weird and I didn't enjoy. I opted to bring it home and throw the shrimp in a skillet for a good seer. Wouldn't order again. The French toast was great , perfect texture and flavor, the bread they used worked really well. The table we were at had some jelly on it from the prior customer which was a tad disturbing , unclear if it was missed as it was hard to see with the Wooden table top or if the table just wasn't cleaned at all. Our waitress was knowledgeable and friendly. I would come back if I'm the area.

First time here. Food was awesome, fresh and portions huge. The only negative was the long wait to receive order.

Love this new location! The same great food and people but a way better space! The Philly cheesesteak is my favorite of anywhere in town and they have a delicious chicken pasta.

We love Cajun food and there aren't too many Cajun joints around. Once we found Mouton's, it has become our go to place for Cajun food. The beer is nice too.

Had been wanting to try Mouton since seeing they have chicken fried steak but the drive was a bit far from home. Finally made it to meet with a friend in that area. We did come on Labor Day, possibly the reason for the slow service. We didn't get our food until 45 minutes after ordering. The servers were nice, likely just short staff for the holiday. I did enjoy the food. The Gumbo was flavorful. I'm not a gumbo expert but it was good for me. The chicken fried steak didn't disappoint. Good size portion, had to take most of it home after finishing the gumbo. I will come back to try the étouffé and maybe other items!

Came here for dinner the other night when I was cracking Cajun food and really enjoyed my meal. I ordered the catfish basket and the catfish was cooked perfect and the fries were great as well. I really like the tartar sauce they served with it and I ended up asking for some lemon wedges to squeeze on the fish. My boyfriend got the chicken fried steak and didn't end up liking it as much as he'd hoped. I tried it and it was a little sweet almost like meatloaf which I thought was weird. The jalapeño creamed corn was good tho! When we came they had family feud style trivia going which was very entertaining to listen to lol. Over all, nice restaurant with good seating and great service. I will definitely be back!

We are long time fans of Moutons, both Leander (when it was open) and Cedar Park. The boudin balls are our favorite. The food has always been incredible. The food tonight was superb as always. We had the Boudin Balls, Cajun pasta and catfish basket. The catfish was perfection. The service the past three times we have come has been atrocious. Waiting after sitting 20 min to have someone acknowledge us. Having our meal arrive before appetizer, with zero drinks. Going an entire meal with no check ins and empty glasses. Because we know things are challenging in staffing services we keep giving the benefit, it's just been increasingly worse. Tonight was the worst. Our waiter was super attentive to the table beside us. We understand their party was more than two. However we tried and failed to get the attention of the server three times. I had to raise my voice to get his attention. It was embarrassing to work so hard to get the attention. He was not the only server, the section had another server as well. Folks delivering food and even the manager. The kitchen was running slow so there were other things going on. I do think it's reasonable to expect our waiter do more than take our order and deliver the check. I also think any of the other four people circulating could have supported our waiter if he was behind. In the off chance he was having a bad night we tipped well to be kind. I do think it will be awhile before we try again.

I absolutely loved this little place! From the time you walk in, you are greeted. All of the staff was very pleasant and attentive. My friends and I sat at the bar and from what I was told, the young lady behind the bar ( most of the staff told me their names but I'm terrible with remembering names ) was in training but I definitely could not tell!! She was on point! Drinks were amazing and she was also taking food orders and even caught one of our dishes had been made improperly BEFORE it even came out of the kitchen. She had it corrected and came to inform us instead of allowing us to believe the food was just taking that long. Like I said, on point! The food was delicious though. Everything we had came out hot and full of flavor. There were also quite a few regular customers including a friend of mine, which says alot about a place! I'll definitely be visiting often myself as it's a nice cozy spot with great drinks, great food and great service.

Been going to moutons since they were in a little mobile home off 183 and its safe to say that even though they upgraded their building, the service and quality of food is still incredible!! We had chicken fried steak, fried catfish and étouffée which were all incredible! Our server today was Izzy and she was also amazing. Some of the best service we have received in a while. We will definitely be returning again soon!

The food and service here are outstanding! Our server was friendly and very helpful in determining what I wanted to try. My shrimp poboy had great toasted bread with spicy mayo and crunchy shrimp.  There was so much shrimp that they couldn't stay on the sandwich! The fries were very tasty, too. My friend's chicken fried steak took over his plate! He said it is one of the best he's ever had. The gravy was just thick enough.

Want a great place to hang at the bar for great drinks and even better food? Head over to Mouton's Cedar Park. Every time is a fun time. Abigail is one of the most attentive bartenders around! I set my shrimp and grits standards to Moutons and no one comes close!! So, all around, Moutons is worth trying out.

Food: Not awesome, but it's not terrible. The coffee was ok. The eggs lacked flufiness (I bet they didn't follow meal prep to that), the flavor was on point, and they did just the right amount of spinach and bacon. The bread is good but poorly heat it. It was dry (which it means) they didn't use butter and the food didn't come out very hot. Service: Poor. The server wasn't very good on manners on how to talk to people. It felt like we were just welcome at first. Later, he did a little bit better, ensuring there was always water and coffee. I think etiquette manners will make it better. Price: they served a good quantity. Economically, it's cheaper than anything around. Ambiance: It was a combination of bar and coffee. I will stop here if I'm in a little bit of a rush or my budget is limited. It is NOT good for a date, a coffee with a business partner, and a family.

Well, the food was good. Not great. A bit dry, especially jambalaya. Service was less than stellar. Waiter kept making excuses. 90 minutes for two of us.

I had such a lovely experience last Sunday that I had to post. The staff always makes me feel so welcome, but the star of this visit was the Eggs Benedict. Perfectly toasted english muffin, poached eggs that flowed like tasty yellow lava when you cut into them, and super lemony Hollandaise sauce. Crispy hashbrowns topped it off to make my morning. I liked it so much I had to ask who made it. Thanks you for making my Sunday delicious, Alysha!

Went there for the Chicken Fried Steak as a to-go order. The Chicken Fried Steak was perfect as well as the gravy and the green beans. The mashed potatoes were good but there wasn't enough. I would go there again for the food but the service was a little lax. My food was sitting on the hostess stand for quite a while before I noticed it and I was sitting right across. I checked the name on the tag to make sure it was mine and left. I guess I should have tipped more to make sure I got my food handed to me. A man who looked like the manager/owner had his back to the hostess stand and talking to someone else or I would have brought it to his attention. To the owners, you should really make sure to have your restaurant fully staffed.

My food is fresh and always hot. Our server Abigail is always on point and makes me feel welcome. We also have met several regulars, that's have the same opinion of Mouton's. Great place in cedar park!

Delicious food, fantastic service and a comfortable homey (not the clown) atmosphere. My wife and I have been coming to Mouton's for years. First the Leander location (RIP, we'll miss you Leander Mouton's ) and now the Cedar Park location. My wife absolutely LOVES the corn beef hash. I love a lot of things here. The country fried potatoes and Pain Perdu (French toast) are particularly delicious, so I definitely recommend those! Autumn was our server last time we were in and the service was magnificent. Eggfficient and on point. I love the fun and unique coffee cups! Again, very homey (not the clown). They even have a pool table and some dart boards if you come with friends and are looking for a group activity outside of shoving yummy foods in your face.

Mojito and margarita were great. The fried pickles and spinach dip were delicious. The Cajun Collette pasta was amazing. Service was attentive.

Great New Orleans spot in Cedar Park. We went for brunch and they had a New Orleans jazz band performing live. The music was definitely a little loud for the space, to the extent that it was a little difficult to hear people. However, the brunch items were tasty and well-priced. Pain Perdu (french toast) was a standout dish and, although not New Orleans flavors, the Lakeline taco was great too. I found the Texas Philly omelette a little underspiced. All in all, a hidden gem in Cedar Park especially if you are craving for a taste of New Orleans!

This place is a little gem, you wouldn't think they have good food based on when you walk in and it looks like a bar! We did breakfast randomly here and it was good! My only issues are the service was slow and our food took over 25 minutes. Now normally it doesn't bother us but there were only three other people in the whole joint so that was a little annoying. The biscuits and gravy were hands down the best out of our whole meal. Overall it's good and I would try lunch or dinner.

Caroline was awesome!!! The food was amazing and she was so nice and helpful!. Love the atmosphere as well!

One of the best places for brunch after a great workout! The staff is and will make sure you are taken care of.. Abigail at the bar is tip notch. Makes the best drinks

This is the 2nd time my daughter-in-law & I have been here. This time, we both ordered the Smoked Meatloaf, mashed potatoes with brown gravy & fresh green beans. The Smoked Meatloaf was really good, and the green beans were really fresh and still had some snap to them. Our server was very attentive and friendly. She kept checking back with us to see if we needed anything else. It was dinner time and was very loud in the restaurant because there is a bar and there were a lot of customers dining in. The 1st time we dined there, it was lunchtime, and it was not loud at all. The food was good both times, and we will definitely consider eating here again when we are in the area.

I'm giving Moutons in Cedar Park one star because I can't give it zero. after coming to their restaurants here and in Leander for years, I just walked out after returning a chicken fried steak to the kitchen. the meat was rancid. there's no way you could have cooked this without knowing. extremely disappointed. hope that the health department reads this.

The food was excellent, the service friendly. I recommend this place and wil be back.

This place is one of my go to restaurants in cedar park. Foods always phenomenal and it's a family owned small business. The food is always on point. My favorites by far are the crawfish Monica, catfish jambalaya, boudin egg rolls and the shrimp Diablo are the best I've ever eaten. It isn't super fancy and sometimes they get busy and food can take a bit longer to come out but that's a rare occurrence only due to the staff being slammed. Autumn, Alisha, Summer, Abby always provide great service with an excellent attitude. Give it a shot and try one of the dishes I recommended, you won't be disappointed!

We recently tried Mouton's for the first time and it was ok. We got takeout so didn't have much interaction with the staff but when we picked it up, the server at the front was very friendly and helpful. I also saw there was live music in the back so I might come back just for the ambiance. Overall the food was 3.5/5 for us. We both got pastas and neither were amazing. I'm not sure if it was because it was takeout or if we ordered the wrong thing because all the other reviews sound great for this place. We will have to give it another time and go for something besides pasta.

Sat, ordered our food, waited 45min, then came and told us it'd be another hour because they ran out of crawfish. No comps, no trying to work it out, just sorry you're SOL and gonna have to wait another hour to eat. Shit happens, it's how you handle it that matters. Lots of places do offer crawfish and they just lost regular customers because of it. Do better!

We recently came here for brunch and was not impressed. We were sat down immediately but our server was barely at our table. They weren't very busy but it did seem like they were short staffed. No one came over to tell us but it seemed like the kitchen was also short staffed. Took an hour to get our food and no one came over at all during that time to explain, we just sat there waiting. Only got one drink refill the entire hour and a half we were there. Assuming the kitchen was short staffed it was really frustrating that they weren't handling tickets in order of when they replaced but rather what was easiest as two two tops were served we'll before us that arrived much later than us. All we had was a burrito and a bunch of waffles. I know the bad experience kind of gave a bias but the burrito was not that great. The gravy was thick and floury and the inside of the burrito was bland. The waffles were okay but at the price they were it was not a good value. We might try again but it might not be for a while.

first things first, the food was okay at best. the service however was terrible, between the two of us we got chicken fried steak & eggs and a chicken bacon biscuit bowl. we got there at 1:00 and got our food at 2:15 which is absolutely ridiculous. also, once we got there it took AT LEAST 5 mins to get seated with zero wait. yall aren't gonna last like this. we won't be coming back.

The service is excellent, especially from the bartenders. They make excellent Cajun food. I recommend the catfish or shrimp and grits, but I've never been disappointed with anything on the menu. Happy hour occurs daily from 2-7, and they have $2 draft beers on Thursdays.

In from out of town, got a sitter to head out for dinner with family. Our server forgot to enter our order, which coming from the service industry I understand can happen, but after an hour and 15 min they said "yeah it'll still be a while, sorry". A manager came over and said sorry it'll be right out, and I said are you sure bc the server just said a while. Sure enough, she goes back and it will be awhile. They didn't make us pay for our drinks, but we left with one to go order and the other two of us having not eaten and almost zero accommodations or accountability made.. We made a specific choice to dine here and support the restaurant and felt very let down. 1hr and 15 min was a LOT of time to not notice and tell us food is on it way multiple times. Super disappointed to leave without dinner after an hour and a half in total and having paid for a sitter for a night out.

Decent Cajun food in Cedar Park. Service was good and the food was decent. I think I could have ordered better so that's on me. The fish tacos I ordered were pretty basic but the chicken fried steak looked really good. Will be ordering that the next time I stop by. Having an out door seating area is a nice plus but be warned there were a lot of flies.

I was pretty excited to try out a Cajun/Texas restaurant but unfortunately the food did not meet expectations. I got a shrimp po boy which was on very basic bread, very little sauce and poorly put together. The shrimp inside by itself was flavorful and ended up just eating that opposed to the whole sandwich. Fries were great too, very flavorful. My wife got a chicken jambalaya which was extremely dry. There was no type of sauce given w it. The service was OK. Our waiter seemed in a rush the whole time and didn't check up on us not once. Ambience was fine, it was quiet and not packed when we went but we asked to be seated away from the bar and that side of the restaurant was very stuffy (left side); we communicated our disappointments to the bartender/waitress and she was very understanding! And ended up taking off the soup from our tab. I really wish I would of gotten her name but we did appreciate her for listening and understanding and not making us feel weird for our experience.

Mouton's is one of my favorites!! Great food from their scratch kitchen made to order. Ask and they can probably do it. Friendly staff and great daily specials. Lunch menu is amazing. 10/10

Had been wanting to try this place for a while so finally stopped in on an off day. Great service, great recommendations from employee. They have happy hour all day on weekdays with $1 off bar drinks and $5 off of appetizers. Unfortunately food just did not do it for me. The boudin balls were super mushy and the angry pasta sauce was a bit bland. I was super disappointed because I had spoke with the server about many different options as well as looking up some options but just wasn't impressed.

Abstract: mediocre at best but happy to support a locally owned restaurant. We ordered (for take out) plain burger with onion rings, crawfish poboy with fries, jambalaya pasta, and chicken fried steak. Burger was supposed to be medium well but it was medium and we needed to heat it up for the kids to eat. Not much to write about. The fries were good but the onion rings were soggy. Crawfish poboy was good but a little dry. They should add a spicy Cajun mayo instead of plain mayo. Pasta was very plain. It was not even mildly spicy. I don't recommend it. Chicken fried steak was good but I thought the gravy could use some more black pepper and be a little thinner. It was too thick to spread on the food. Service was good. I just had to call the number and they brought out our order to our car. I wouldn't come back anytime soon for dinner but maybe I'll try the breakfast. Love that they're a local Naumann family so hopefully they're getting more patronage to stay open.

The $5 happy hour margarita is just tequila and sour mix. You can definitely get a way better margarita somewhere else for the same price. Took way too long to get our fried calamari for how slow this place was. It came out cold and was like 10 pieces. Definitely not worth $15.

The food and ambience was exactly what I was looking for. The service was excellent and my experience was a perfect way to start my Sunday. I will return every time I get the chance.

We've been coming here for lunch for a few years now and decided to finally write a review. The service is always quick and friendly. The food is really good and they have great weekday lunch specials. I typically get the Rueben sandwich and it's by far the best in town. The corned beef is very tender and moist and there is a generous amount. My husband recently got the wings. They were HUGE with lots of meat and he said they were great. He got the sweet chile spice on them. We've also come for brunch on the weekend. It can be crowded and if so the kitchen can get backed up. But if you don't mind waiting the food is good. Lastly they have an outside patio with picnic tables. When the weather is nice we always opt to eat out there.

Do yourself a favor and get here for the Shrimp&Grits&Eggs! Perfectly seasoned and great portion! The service is excellent and thus far they've been ok letting me sit and watch the early football game.

Stopped in for breakfast a couple of days ago. Ordered the Eggs Breakfast which is the traditional, eggs, bacon (choice), hash browns and wheat toast (choice). The food was good, fresh and hot. The coffee was hot and always filled. Server was super friendly. I recommend this restaurant, highly. The price was reasonable and competitive.

I really want to like them...I've tried them twice. Once in person and the second time through delivery. They have lots of offerings on the menu that sound good but unfortunately the taste of the food doesn't seem to match the expectations. I'm a fan of Cajun foods, so I've definitely had the good and the bad. This is just bad. They also completely messed up my delivery order and charged me extra for food I never received. I won't be back. Edit: since there was a response. I originally wrote that I ordered through Uber eats, but I actually ordered through the link on Yelp. I'll post a picture.
