BUT, everything goes down hill when the food and and servers are horrible. The food super cold and the servers were cold as well. Servers didn't pick up salad plates when serving entrees. They just told us to put it aside or they put entree plate on top of dirty plate. This type of service ruins your upscale venue. All of our food was cold, the chicken, veggies and bread were iced cold. I wouldn't do an event here knowing how it is. The only positive besides view and location was the bartender. Lori was amazing and very serviceable. Her attitude and customer service was on point. But for sure. I works recommend this place unless is just for pictures.

The venue is under new ownership now but I had worked with Benita throughout my planning and she has been amazing throughout the whole process. I also added on day of coordinator service and Benita took care of all the details so that I can relax and enjoy my wedding. Out of all the venues I looked at, The Terrace was the most affordable for my budget and I didn't need to worry about table or chair rentals. They have a kitchen, walk-in fridge, and regular freezer so you have access to set-up in the back or early off of supplies. It was also a great help that they had some decors available, so I didn't have to worry about spending extra for this. Overall, I really liked the space and how convenient it was to have the ceremony and reception in one location. There is a room where you can get ready or hang out before the wedding, but the lighting is pretty dim. Venue is about a 45 minute drive from Austin, but the drive is scenic and nice. A big thank you also to Kristi and James for helping setting up, cleaning up, and picking up the catering for my wedding.

The wedding coordinator did a great job making sure the decor was truly how the couple envisioned it and the views were lovely as the sun went down! Everything turned out beautifully and they had some great, non traditional vendors offered through this event space such as an onsite coffee cart that my friend included in her package! The drive up was winding and narrow so that's something to be mindful of! They have three small parking lots and their staff have golf carts that can take you from the parking lot to the venue. I do have to take off one star due to no staff being available to transport guests close to the end of the night to lot 1 which is up a hill, it was dark and many guest were in heels.

Wow, wow, and wow! This is hands down the most stunning Tuscan-style venue I've ever seen in Texas…read more I attended a wedding here in June, and it was breathtaking. The ceremony overlooked the venue's gorgeous views, creating the perfect backdrop for such a special moment. After the ceremony, we headed downstairs for cocktail hour while the newlyweds took photos. The overall setup was flawless--definitely, a picture-perfect venue that will fill up your camera roll. The wedding reception layout was beautiful, though I did feel that guests seated on the far side of the room couldn't see the top table very well. It might have been better to position it more centrally to improve visibility. The food was incredible! They served a Mediterranean-style buffet featuring grilled vegetables, fresh salads, grilled chicken, and fish--everything was delicious. From start to finish, the wedding was nothing short of amazing. The staff were friendly and welcoming, adding to the overall experience. I can see why this venue is likely fully booked during wedding season--it's truly a gem, and I wouldn't blame anyone for wanting to host their special day here!

The catering and other staff were so helpful and made sure everyone was restocked, filled, cleaned etc!

When you first see the site, you think it looks just like someone's home with a large parking lot, but once you step inside you are welcomed with lovely layout indoors and a spectacular patio outdoors. They have a whole storage room for decor, table clothes etc so you won't have to even bring anything for set up! We would 1000% recommend having your shower, wedding, or special event here!

If you are up for the view- this is the place. It is best for sunset but we were here around 3ish…read more We requested for a lake view & we were asked to wait for 15-20 mins, just enough time for us to do a quick stroll in their vicinity. They have very nice statues btw. We were ushered here by a lady and we were escorted on our table, we asked if we can have an umbrella up but she said NO, I AM NOT SURE. We just requested for a shaded area & she had us sit on table 116 which is in the corner & water dripping from the top floor ‍. We asked another waiter if we can be transferred & he gladly granted our request. We ordered their special paella & i love it! Their fish tacos & fish and chips need more seasoning. Their servers are very helpful!

Whew. Where do I start? Honestly I'm baffled with the amount of times I've heard "the oasis is good…read morefor the views, not the food". Easier said than done but- I personally feel like the oasis has had ample time to take this common phrase into consideration when it comes to their menu. The food is honestly bad, and I'm not one to be super picky. My fiancee got the fish tacos and still is having a hard time hours later (described the fish as biting into cardboard). I got the chicken enchiladas which were soggy on the outside and dry on the inside. Truly did not know that was possible. The chips and queso were the best thing at the table and were subpar at best. For a drink I ordered the piña colada which albeit- I wasn't expecting it to be amazing, but it was underwhelming, not well blended and was lacking flavor (and liquor lol). Service: the wait time was an hour for a table or a $10 cover fee per person in the group to be escorted to an area that was going to have a live performance in an hour. We chose the cover fee because my fiancée was starving. The menus are QR codes and we waited about 15 minutes to be greeted but honestly was not terribly upset at that since It was a Saturday. Our server was nice- just very busy and wasn't able to be very attentive. Views: Stunning views, we had beautiful weather and the live music was great! That is the only thing saving this place from sinking into the ground.

I am left with only wonderful and positive things to say even though I should have been cranky and tired from traveling to another conference right beforehand in Chicago.

We had veggie and chicken tikka masala, as well as a cashew quinoa salad. All FANTASTIC, fresh, delicious, and clearly healthy. The veggie tikka had quinoa, and both dishes were full of delicious fresh veggies, including brussels sprouts, green beans, cauliflower, carrots, squash, and more. The chicken was tender and delicious, and the sauce flavorful, but not overpowering the food at all. The vegan brownies I initially resisted trying (because . . . vegan brownies?). But actually they were very good, extremely moist, and tasty. I wish there was a restaurant. But in the meantime, I sure hope we get them catered in again. OFTEN.

I think I need a unique option for a group of friends... or my office party. Or I really want to be a part of a really cool dinner evening in the middle of herb and vegetable gardens... it's pretty cool when we walk through the gardens and pick what we eat. Really. I've done quite a few events at the SicolaGardenHouse... both as guest of other events as well as hosting my own. And they have it all. I'm always looking for conversation points and unique options when it comes to dining... whether I'm considering a special evening for family, for networking, for friends, for colleagues, or for a date. I call Sarah up, she asks me what I'm looking to do... she remembers what I've done in the past, and then she helps me make the perfect event. The food is absolutely amazing... better than I've had at most 5-star restaurants. I've traveled the world and nearly the entire country. I've yet to find a dining destination as cool as the Sicola Garden House. You don't have to have all the answers (Sarah will help you), you just have to call. And the Sicola's remind me I can bring my favorite bottle of wine :) Excited for my next event!
