What User likes about Mudbugs Cajun Kitchen:
It can be challenging to find vegetarian-friendly restaurants on Sanibel, as most menus lack entree options for vegetarians. However, MudBugs offers several entrees, appetizers, and sides that cater to veggie lovers. I tried the Cajun Alfredo pasta with a side of added sweetness, and it was delicious! The following day, I returned for their coffee and beignets at breakfast, and they were equally delicious. View all feedback. What Nancy Ariss doesn't like about Mudbugs Cajun Kitchen:
Small tight tables with loud music. Ordered happy hour really crappy. Guy said we could sit anywhere, but when we sat down he told us we couldn't sit there!!! Too expensive for what you get, would never go would not recommend to anyone. The only good part was our server! View all feedback.
