Appetizer was decent, cheese was thick over top but didn't appear to be melted entirely causing it to be too thick and a little unappealing. Overall good flavor but nothing crazy. Shrimp and Grits were good, but nothing special. Burger sauce + flavors were excellent, but asked for a medium rare cook, and received medium well. Also ordered the spiked strawberry lemonade, and it contained next to no alcohol. For the drink being $10, expected a bit more, but tasted fine. Server was very kind and ambiance was homely. read more

Mouton's Bistro - Bourbon Street Breakfast....need I say more! - Cajun/Creole Near Me - Cedar Park, Texas

Pretty decent spot to get breakfast. I loved that it was a smaller menu (helps with my constant indecision) We split the covered & smothered with hashbrowns as well as the pain perdu (their version of French toast) I really enjoyed the covered and smothered, esp with a dash of the crystals hot sauce. It was just the right amount of comforting without being too too heavy. The pain perdu was interesting. Good flavor but wasn't a fan of the use of the baguette instead of a softer bread. I had to drench it with syrup and only eat the middle part. Next time I'll try the bread putting French toast instead. Overall good experience and I found out they have a second location in Leander as well. Check them out! #supportlocal read more

Dear Reader, My Love affair with Moutons began on a Thursday when I popped in for a quick bite. I was greeted by Shannon and shown to a table. I had been referred by a friend who told me about their amazing breakfast. He said to be sure and try the sausage gravy. So, I ordered the Moody's omelet, home fried potatoes, and a side of sausage gravy. It tasted even better than he described it! Big Win! While I was enjoying my omelet overflowing with fillings, Shannon strolled by with a platter of "Big as Your Face" pancakes...and I was mesmerized! I thought, maybe I will get some to go.. but I had a ton of leftovers from my breakfast and decided I would come back. Shannon's friendly and intentional service made it a very easy decision! I was beyond satisfied with the food and the experience. What a great way to start off any day! It's Saturday and I am back! I missed breakfast, but I had never had any of the items on their Cajun inspired lunch / dinner menu as was intrigued. Beautiful Little Lilly was behind the bar and welcomed me in with a smile. She hooked me up with the perfect Ranch Water! Mottled lime and little fresh jalapeno per my request! I sipped my cocktail and made conversation with her & Brandon, another super friendly server. The atmosphere was comfortable and relaxed. I decided on Chicken and grits for lunch. Chris (The Chef) brought it to me fresh from the kitchen and I was delighted by the presentation! The smell was heavenly! It was a meal I will not soon forget! The grits were a creamy, cheesy delight! I'd never tasted anything quite like them!! The chicken was tender and juicy. Yum!!!! Covered in bacon, fresh diced tomatoes, and avocado chunks! Yep, mind blown!! Loving this place, and the people! Sunday rolls around and you guessed it.. I returned to try those hypnotizing pancakes!! I haven't been able to stop thinking about them!! This time Molly took care of me. She exuded such warmth and kindness. I was happy I had decided to spend my Sunday afternoon with my new friends at Moutons. By now they are all just spoiling me! Molly graciously attended to my every whimsical request and made my experience a delight. (I had no idea she was the Assistant General Manager) I can say now, with confidence the "Big as Your Face "pancakes were as delicious as I had imagined they would be!! This is my first Yelp review. I know it is a long one, but I'm a SUPER picky customer. Frankly, I am hard to impress. As an Air Force Veteran, I've been privileged to travel the world and eaten in countless places. It is my pleasure to take the time to today to write this review for the great folks of Moutons Bistro & Bar in Cedar Park!! ~Deborah read more

We are already excited to come back and try something else on the menu! We started with the fried green tomatoes - the tomato was so fresh and thick, I'm not a tomato fan and I could have eaten this as an entree. The fried panko has a lot of flavor and the sauce was amazing. We split a turkey club - the Cajun seasoning and the quality of the turkey and the bacon were so good, every bite was beautiful. The fries were fresh and crispy, and I think the bread was homemade. Everyone was so nice and friendly, and everything was clean. The whole ride home we kept talking about how dang good everything was and how we haven't had such a good first impression with a place in a long time!! read more

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! read more

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

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. read more

It's hard to find a place nearby with good Cajun food. Their gumbo is GREAT and their catfish is flavored perfectly. So tasty! Can't wait to try their grits next time. If you're craving Cajun food, this is the place for you. read more

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 read more

This was our first time here and it can at the recommendation of a local friend and if I lived here I would be here every week if not daily. This food was EXACTLY what you would want from a breakfast spot. It is a "made from scratch" kitchen so every order is customizable. The portion sizes are perfect even for a bigger guy like me. And the flavors are wonderful. The shrimp and grits comes with bacon, mushrooms and garlic which go perfectly with the subtle spicy of the jalapeño cheese grits. The shrimp is cooked perfectly and there is a lot of it The Eggs Rachel comes on crab cakes and was super delicious. I was not expecting to like that as much. The eggs Benedict is a classic breakfast staple and the hash browns that come with us are cooked crispy like they should be. This place looks like they have a bar and may specialize in po boys so I would love to try it for lunch also. read more

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

The chicken and sausage gumbo was delicious with smoky cajun depth of flavor, hearty sausage slices and shredded chicken. My husband devoured his Bastrop burger which was perfectly cooked with blt, poblano pepper diablo sauce - a large meaty scrumptious burger. Bacon cheeseburger was also yummy with sweet potato fries. Side caesar salad was good. My kids loved the soft chewy chocolate chip cookies! Draft beers were nice and cold. Great service and friendly staff. We'll be back read more

Legit Cajun food! Not the fake, wanna be crap you usually get this far from the bayou. Came here just because they are open late but so glad we found this place! I had the ( waitress, Amira, recommended) Catfish jambalaya with crawfish etouffe on top...DELICIOUS!. My wife had a simple Rueben sandwich and it also was top notch! We definitely will make this a frequent stop any time of day! read more

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. read more

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. read more

Mouton's is truly a bistro and bar, not the other way around! They serve much more than bar food, and it's much better than you'd expect from somewhere with bar in the name. It is in fact a bistro! I went to Mouton's this morning with a friend and her daughter and it was surprisingly great! I had Eggs Rachel, which is a fantastic stack of poached eggs, asparagus, and tomatoes on a flavorful crab cake that's not heavy. It was a nontraditional and delightful breakfast. I subbed a biscuit for the hash browns and was disappointed because the biscuit was a bit hard. They say they are homemade, so maybe it was just too pre-made, but it didn't seem homemade. The gravy was not sausage gravy and was also not very flavorful. My friend and her daughter had a more home style breakfast, which they loved. The French toast was made out of French bread and looked so awesome I want to try it next time. One pancake was plenty for her daughter, because it was plate sized! Food was pretty impressive, and they had really good decaf! The space does feel more like a bar, but not in a way that made it feel weird to take a kid in there to eat. It's a cute neighborhood bar with better food than you would expect. I've had their dinner as well, and it doesn't disappoint. The cheesy shrimp and grits was tasty, and I'd eat it again. The service steals the spotlight here! Our waitress was friendly, attentive, and made great recommendations. She never let me coffee cup go dry or get cold without topping me off, which I especially appreciate when drinking coffee. The price was also fantastic. It felt like a steal at under $40 for 3 of us. We will all go back! read more

We come here at least once a week for breakfast. The food at anytime of day is consistently good and we love that they just expanded! Allows for more room! I particularly love their French toast, pancakes, omelette and biscuits for breakfast. Lunch- their burgers and sweet potato fries are huge and delicious. They also have a good club sandwich! They also have a full bar so that's always fun too! read more

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. read more

The pasta is TRY THE CHICKEN COLLETTE. Soooo good. Another really good one is the Shrimp jambalaya pasta. read more

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. read more

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. read more

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. read more

The food was too hot and uhhh my friend is choking laughing about I like my food cold... Excellent service and excellent food. Letting my friend die still while I type this read more

We came here today for Father's Day and beat the rush. I had a Belgium waffle with chicken strips and thought it was pretty good. My son split it with me and ate everything with us not having to remind him every 5 minutes to eat so I know he liked it Wife had corn beef hash and she like it. The worst part about the visit was how long it took for the food to come. It seemed like it took 45 minutes or so. However, our waiter was super friendly and really made the occasion worthwhile. Forget his name but he normally works nights. He let us know why our food was taking so ling( apparently a large grub hub or DoorDash order) Had he not gone above and beyond, this rating would have been a lot different because it took so long to get the food. He was super cool with our kid and even gave him Hershey syrup to make chocolate milk. He really made the experience and why I will return. read more

Delicious food and friendly service. Hope to get back there again soon. Highly recommended! read more

Love this place - definitely our go-to spot. Everything on the menu is great. Cajun pastas (several to choose from), catfish, shrimp, all the Cajun specialties etc. great for breakfast, lunch or dinner - they are even open late. Believe it or not they have some of the best burgers in town. I order mine medium rare, and they are cooked to perfection -- most places take your order but over cook them. If you haven't been - give them a try! If you've been - go back soon. Support your local family owned businesses!!! read more

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. read more

Need a recommendation on a great spot to visit? Look no further than Mouton's. They specialize in delicious cajun/southern comfort food. I recently got to try them out and can say they are now a top consideration of mine when I'm in the mood for that kind of food. Let's start with my thoughts on the food: I got the: - Angry Pasta: y'all. This was the BEST pasta I've had in Austin thus far. No joke. The amount of flavor in this dish was impeccable as it is a good mix of spicy, smokey, rich, creamy flavors. It comes with smoked sausage, ham, bacon, tossed with penne rigate and a very spicy Italian cream sauce. You GOT to try this to believe it! - Chicken Fried Steak: what's there to say? Just look at this bad boy! This thing is as big as your head. Very well made too since the chicken breading remained in tact as I kept cutting it to take bites. It didn't get moist easily and fall off the meat like a lot of chicken fried steaks do. Good combo of crispy edges and chewy insides. - Half Shrimp Po-Boy: a classic. Golden fried shrimp topped with lettuce, tomato, and homemade tartar sauce on French bread. Comes with your choice of fries, onion rings, or 50/50. I highly suggest at least doing 50/50 so you can try the onion rings. They're unique because they are chicken fried! Similar to the chicken fried steak, the breading remains in tact when you take a bite, so you don't have to worry about it falling apart so easily. Not greasy either! - Starter Sampler: a good pick when every appetizer looks good! Comes with Crawfish Dip, 4 Gator Bites, 2 Boudin Balls, and 3 Fried Pickles. My favorite of the 4 were definitely the fried pickles! Dip it in their chipotle ranch for maximum flavor. The most unique had to be the gator bites - I've never eaten alligator. If you haven't either, don't ya worry - it's good! These fried gator bites tasted almost like chicken nuggets, but with a bit more tender meat. All in all - you can't go wrong with any of their menu items here. As you can see in the pictures, all the dishes are very big! They have a big menu to choose from beyond these 4 items such as: meatloaf, jambalaya, grits, shrimp creole, and much much more. The service is great - a true taste of southern hospitality. They also have outdoor dining if you prefer on great weather days like today. In conclusion, I was highly satisfied with my visit. read more

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. read more

I went there today with a friend for the first time. I ordered the Cup of Shrimp Etouffee for my starter. It was superb ! Absolutely delicious ! For my entrée, I ordered the shrimp and grits, extra spicy . Hands-down that was some of the best food I've had in a long time ! The wait staff was very friendly and very knowledge ! Definitely a must try ! I will definitely be back ! Five stars read more

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. read more

Pretty solid brunch. Sweet local, family vibe. Everyone's food was really good and service was great. Would recommend

Alicia is the best. The food is even better. Our go to for comfort or Cajun food. My wide always get a side of Ceasar salad dressing to go.

Today I had their "Big Easy" steak, medium rare. The steak was SO well prepared I welcomed slowing down to enjoy the flavor.

Wednesday is trivia night with Mr. E and is pretty fun. Ambiance and stuff are good. We have tried the fried pickles, shrimp basket, crawfish dip, shrimp jambalaya and etouffe. The dip is super-slam. Pickles and shrimp were good. Jambalaya and etouffe were not great. We'll prob be back. We enjoy trivia :) read more

Service was OK as we had a trainee so we were patient. Hubby liked his catfish and I thought the fries were very good. I had the Frenchaletta half sandwich which was just OK but not really much like a muffuletta-but I guess that was the point. Place seemed clean and was busy at lunchtime. I suspect hubby will ask to go back sometime for the catfish. I will try something else from the menu if we do return. read more

The food here is AMAZING! This is the best Cajun pasta I have ever tried. Perfect amount of kick and super flavorful. The boudin balls are equally as flavorful. The service was very friendly and the place feels home-y. My fiancé and I will definitely be back. 10/10!! read more
