Mudbugs - A Cajun Joint

Food is terrific and most of it is gluten free — including the crab cakes! We’ve been here three times and all the wait staff have been good and knowledgeable. Tonight’s waiter told me the owner designed the menu for his now ex-wife who was celiac. Highly recommend.

I really wanted to give this place a better review. The food was delicious. Our waiter seemed not all there and not focused, so service wasn't great. The delicious food made up for it, but then my husband was sick all night. I'm Celiac. He's gluten intolerant. Not sure if he got food poisoning or glutened. Also, my fried oysters had a huge shell piece. I mean, like half the shell and then no oyster, just bread. The chocolate trifle dessert was amazing. So was the fried calamari.

All food in restaurant is gluten free except the bread that comes with some dishes and the bread pudding. Staff was VERY knowledgeable. Owner (and menu creator) was present to answer questions.

Food was SOOOO good. We ordered the popcorn crawfish (fried), tchoup salad, shrimp and grits, and crab cake. It was all superb! Like makes you want to cry a little, it’s so good you can’t believe is gluten free, THAT GOOD!
