Best Cajun Restaurant in Buda

Alaona Gonzalez

Highly recommend MudBugs! The N.O.B.S (New Orleans–style BBQ shrimp) were absolutely amazing, rich, flavorful, and cooked perfectly. If you pick any app that dish is a must! The crab cakes were just as delicious. Our server Montana was fantastic and made great drink recommendations that paired perfectly with the food. ... If you’re looking for great food and amazing drinks, MudBugs is the place to go! Read More

I had a fantastic experience at Mud Bugs. The food was absolutely amazing—fresh, flavorful, and exactly what you want when you’re craving great Cajun seafood. Every bite was spot on. The ambiance was just as good as the food. It has a relaxed, welcoming vibe that makes it easy to settle in and enjoy yourself. It’s ... the kind of place where you can sit back, eat well, and lose track of time in the best way. The staff was friendly and attentive, and everything about the experience felt smooth and enjoyable from start to finish. I’ll definitely be coming back. If you’re in Buda and looking for great food and a fun atmosphere, this place is absolutely worth the visit. Read More

This place is a little hard to find since it’s in the plaza but look for the glass structure with the New Orleans symbol on the outside. The restaurant is beautiful! It’s warm, cozy, and sophisticated. I was craving some cajun pasta and found this place. The staff are welcoming and very friendly. Everything is good ... from the food to the drinks. They do have a happy hour so if you are thinking about stopping by DO IT! The owner (chef owned) is so sweet, ask him about the photos on the walls! He has so many amazing stories. When I visit Austin again this place will be a staple for me! The drinks are good too! The bartender was amazing offering recommendations. Read More

Enjoy an elevated dining experience for both lunch and dinner, plus brunch with bottomless mimosas on Sundays. Excellent pricing. The quality and freshness of the food is unmatched. The service is good, just do a good job of setting expectations with your server.
