Found Clean Eats in Vegas
Stop here if you go to Vegas
I always search for seed oil-free restaurants when I’m looking for cleaner places to eat because “seed oil-free” is finally becoming mainstream and things finally pop up on a google search! Restaurants that care are actually putting it on their websites now, which makes them much easier to find.
But...being the label reader that I am, I go many steps further.
Probably farther than most people want to go. 😂 And honestly, you don’t have to...because I do it for you.
Anyway, I searched around Vegas and found quite a few clean options. The only problem? Getting around Vegas kind of sucks. 🤣
I found a handful of places inside my hotel (Fontainebleau—the newest hotel on the Strip), but I decided to spend the $10 on a quick cab ride to Caesars because I found a place serving a clean matcha latte and eggs with avocado. Totally worth it.
When I got there, I realized there was another clean spot nearby too...I’ll share that one in a minute.
Here’s what I mean when I say I look deeper than just “seed oil-free.”
The first thing that caught my eye on the menu?
Housemade syrups. Housemade lemonade.
WHAT?! 🤯. They even have a frozen frose made with just tequila - maybe I should pause writing this and go order one?! ha
Most coffee shops use Monin or another commercial syrup loaded with preservatives, artificial flavors, and ingredients I’d rather skip.
When I see housemade syrup, that’s a huge green flag. Sure, in a perfect world I’d love to see coconut sugar or monk fruit as the sweetener, but at the very least it’s a good sign they’re making it themselves instead of pumping in processed syrups with artificial colors and preservatives.
Then I noticed they serve Siete chips.
Again...someone behind that kitchen actually cares.
And I am HERE for it.
Next, I looked at the milk options.
I saw oat milk, but I didn’t even bother asking what brand because I personally avoid oats. They tend to bloat me, and they’re naturally higher in omega-6 fats than I’d like.
Then I spotted something that literally made me smile...
Elmhurst Vanilla Pistachio Milk. (see the organic maple syrup…another positive sign and a great sweetener option in any drink)
I was floored. Honestly, that ingredient alone made the taxi ride worth it.
I was so excited to have clean milk with ceremonial-grade matcha. I skipped the sweetener, but if you’re new to matcha, a little drizzle of honey would definitely help mellow out that earthy flavor. 😂
Another thing I loved? They use organic espresso, which usually tells me the owners have put real thought into the rest of the menu too.
Cafe Lola has really revamped its menu over the past year. They’ve added seed oil-free cooking oils, housemade syrups, housemade sourdough, organic ingredients, and thoughtful swaps throughout the menu. You can tell someone actually cares about ingredient quality—not just marketing.
