Looking for a healthy Mexican restaurant in Downtown Austin that doesn’t sacrifice flavor? You are in luck. At Iron Cactus, we have taken a bold step toward better dining: we are now a 100% seed-oil free kitchen! This makes us one of the first Mexican restaurants in Austin to do so.
Why Go Seed-Oil Free?
Most restaurants cook with oils like canola, soybean, and sunflower oil. Known as industrial seed oils, they are highly processed and high in omega-6 fats. Not to mention, they are linked to inflammation and other health concerns. At Iron Cactus, we wanted something better for our guests.
So, we made the switch.
We now cook exclusively with avocado oil and extra virgin olive oil! Not only do these natural oils support a healthier lifestyle, but they also deliver even better flavor. Whether you’re keto, paleo, Whole30, or just health-conscious, you will taste the difference with every bite.
Your Healthy Dining Destination in Downtown Austin
Our downtown location offers stunning rooftop views, 100+ premium tequilas, margaritas, and a vibrant atmosphere. Now paired with a cleaner, healthier kitchen! Whether you’re out for lunch, dinner, or happy hour, Iron Cactus makes it easy to enjoy great Mexican food that aligns with your wellness goals.
Iron Cactus isn’t just another Mexican restaurant. We’re part of a better-food movement—and we’re proud to lead the way. Come experience Austin’s favorite healthy Mexican restaurant and taste what seed-oil-free dining is all about.
