The closest South Louisiana kitchen to the I-35 corridor.

If you live in Round Rock and you've been hunting for honest Cajun food, the chain options on I-35 don't really do the trick. Mouton's is a 15-minute hop west on 1431 — past La Frontera, past the lake, into Cedar Park. Chef Ben Mouton has been cooking the food he grew up on in South Louisiana here since 2012.

The gumbo gets a dark roux. The jambalaya is built on the trinity. The boudin is rolled in-house. It's the kind of food Round Rock asks for — and rarely finds — without going all the way into Austin.

Getting Here from Round Rock

About 15 minutes, traffic depending.

From downtown Round Rock or the outlets: take 1431 (Whitestone Blvd) west all the way to Lakeline — about 15 minutes. We're at 1821 S Lakeline Blvd, just south of 1431.

From La Frontera or I-35: head west on 1431, past 183 — same drive, ~12–15 minutes.

From Brushy Creek: 620 west to Lakeline, then north — about 10 minutes.

Free parking. Open daily from 8 AM. The bar pours late Wednesday through Saturday — easy mid-week dinner without committing to the full I-35 slog into Austin.
