The Scene – Exposed-brick walls, stylish wood furniture, fireplaces and bright Mexican landscape paintings create an urban, easygoing vibe. The second floor has an open kitchen for tapas and a low-lit bar with a balcony overlooking Pegasus Plaza. The third story is an open-air patio with a full menu and space for mingling. Service is casual, but attentive. – – The Food – The menu aims for the same level of hip sophistication as the interior design, with most items featuring some twist on a classic. Spicy jalapeno calamari is served alone or as part of the cactus…

My husband and I had our engagement party there and it went great. They did a great job setting up and keeping our guests happy. The smiles were always there and drinks full. The food was amazing! Recomending it to you for large parties.

Definately Wow'd

by JACKIEANDREWS

OH MY GOSH! Our rehearsal dinner was WONDERFUL-- Everything was just perfect and I can't think of anything I could tell you that could have been changed for the better...Everything was just how we wanted it, from the pictures being displayed to the passed hor' dourves to the main course to the dessert...It was even quiet when Bob was giving the toast! Our waitress had the music turned down right at the perfect moment...everyone was able to hear him. That was a plus! The food was perfect...my fish was outstanding and all I heard all night was how wonderful and great the food tasted. (It was so much better than the reception food!) The service was exceptional and the wait staff went over and above what was expected. THEY did an amazing job of organizing the evening and making sure we had everything we needed! I have told friends about Iron Cactus and hopefully they will use your services for their dinners in the future. We love this restaurant and can't wait to come back and enjoy a relaxing dinner together.

Great Restaurant & Bar

by cbooth1215

I have been 3 times to this location, and each time the food has been amazing, the service was great, and it was just a nice relaxing atmosphere. I even took my family here for my dad's birthday, and we were treated like we were the only people there. I definitely will keep going back because of the food. I love great mexican food, and they definitely have it.

  • Pros: Atmosphere, Food
  • Cons: only that it is downtown
