We stopped here on the way from mother neff state park on a Sunday. The indoor seating area is…read morereally nice, lots of patio space too. The menus didn't include any tasting notes other than dry or sweet, and our server didn't really know much about the wine. We tried a build your own flight and a mocktail though. Nice place to grab a glass of wine and some charcuterie after a hike. The chilled white wine blend was our favorite, however, the reds (made from their grapes) we tried missed the mark. Not sure we'd come back for the wine.

Owners are so nice! Wine is good. Location is really great, give it a try! We liked it!read more

I had less than a week to plan a small Wedding for my son…read moreand his bride. He was home from deployment from the Army and a friend shared with me about this location. Long and quick story short, Pastor Steve led us through the process and our son and new daughter in law had a glorious day! The property is rustic and gorgeous. There are plenty of places for amazing photo shoots. And, it's quaint and perfect. The presence of God is all over this property. When you're there... it's like escaping to another world. Quiet, calm, and open air. Trust me when I say, at the very least check it out and visit the Silo, you won't regret it.

Tricia and Stephen with Silo and Oak are like a dream come true! We booked this venue when they…read morewere still in the mist of renovating the property and we were completely blow away with the transformation. Not only did they keep to their word about what would be completed by our wedding date but went well beyond that! Tricia was very detailed with planning and even though she wasn't my day of coordinator, acted like one anyway. Which was so helpful! She helped with of vendors, accommodations, decor, anything I needed she was right there. They let us come out there as many times as we wanted and were always so kind. For the price and all that comes in your package, you can not beat this venue! It's unique, inviting, and down right gorgeous! Pro tip- go see the venue at sunset so you can see all the twinkle lights.. you're welcome! Thank you so much to The Simmons family!

Came here on Sunday Memorial Day weekend for lunch with my parents (my dad recommended this spot!),…read moreand was pleasantly surprised! There was no wait, and we were seated immediately. You have the preference to pick lakeside, so we chose that and were seated outdoors with a view of Belton Lake. Upon getting seated, we orderered the Calamari, the Crab Cakes, the Fried Catfish, Shrimp and Grits, Salmon Salad, and the burger. I also got their Sunrise Tequila cocktail (as they were out of the sunset margarita that I had initially wanted to try). I loved my shrimp and grits! The dish was super tasty, and the grits were cheesy and delicious. The fried catfish was also great, and the calamari appetizer was shared amongst the four of us. I do not think I liked the crab cake as much, but it was still pretty good. My personal preference at least. My boyfriend ordered a soda, and it was nice that they let you get a collectible cup for your soda to go as well! Would come again!

This restaurant has SO MUCH POTENTIAL yet it falls short every time I go. This last time we went…read more(6/20/26) it was for a new reason. It was in the mid 80s and over 50% humidity outside. We were wanting to sit outside for the amazing view. We are led to the table closest to the back door. The misters were on like an indoor sprinkler fire suppression system. I'm talking soaking wet everything. Our table was getting misted and the chairs on the mister side had puddles of water on the seats. This is because the humidity outside was too high for misters to be effective (they cool air via evaporation- it was too humid for this to occur). We asked our waitress (who was great) if we could get the misters turned down or off since they were not making it any cooler and just getting everything soaking wet and she said she didn't want to get in trouble. I said they could be mad at us and just tell the manager the misters are getting everything wet. She gave the impression that she'd asked this several times before and management denied customer requests to turn them off. It was so soaking wet the floor had a "caution wet floor" sign on it, which means management was aware of the state of the situation and did nothing. ? Management, if the misters are resulting in wet surfaces, that means the mist is not evaporating, and the misters are not working. This is a very simple concept. There are other things that could be improved. Once the sun started setting we were getting blinded so we all moved to the other side of the table facing away from the sun (and the lake). This is an easy fix- install some shades! This is a double solution as they can be used to retain warmth in cold weather. Overall the food was really good. The gumbo was weirdly gelatinous and did NOT TASTE LIKE traditional gumbo- I'm from southeast Texas, from a long line of Cajun cooks. It tasted more like gravy and had a gravy texture. Not really edible. The snapper was delicious. The basil cream sauce was a smart choice, but it also was way too thick and had a goopy, non-pourable texture. Seemed like too much cornstarch was added. I ordered a bahama mama and asked for the alcohol on the side because I've felt the drinks are skimped here in the past, and they only gave me 1 shot of rum when the menu says there is a light and a dark rum shot in the drink. Waitress said the drink already had the coconut rum in it- definitely didn't taste like it. Plus, I've asked for this before and they did bring out 2 shots, so I think I just got skimped which is per usual. There was also a 6-ish y/o little boy who spent about 20-30 mins running and stomping up and down the deck right alongside our table. He was enjoying himself stomping in the mister puddles. Not his fault that he wasn't being supervised or contained; his parents were somewhere way far away out of eye and earshot. I saw waitresses notice, but no one made the effort to get this child's parents to corral him back to their table. We love kids so this wasn't as big of a deal as it could have been. So much potential, so many oversights. I believe in this place and I know they can improve!

Had my son's 11th birthday party here. Matthew was super helpful with prepping us for the party on…read morewhat to expect and what options we had. Him and his team were super helpful before, during, and after the party. They were auper patient with all of the kiddos running around, keeping popcorn coming and cleaning up the messes that kids inevitably made throughout the party. The venue itself was perfect for us since we had a toddler and 2 children with special needs in attendance. It's basically one big room so it was easy to keep up with where everyone was. There were so many game options, from pong (which the grandparents especially loved), patio games, mortal kombat, Mario kart, the OG duck hunt game, the list goes on. I'm not sure who had more fun, the kids or the adults! The crew there did a great job keeping up with our drink and food orders throughout the party. Then afterwards were helpful with rounding up the kids and getting the place cleaned up. I see a 12th birthday party at this location in our future!

Love this place and really wish we had one in our hometown! There are so many activities for little…read moreones to enjoy, including active play, sensory activities, pretend play, a water area, building blocks, and so much more. They even have kid-sized restrooms on site, which is a great touch. Children do have to remove their shoes before entering the play area. They also have snacks available to order. The prices are very affordable, and I love that they only charge for the child, not the parent. Each play session lasts up to two hours, and afterward, the staff cleans and disinfects the area before the next session. Such a fun, clean, and affordable place for kids to play and explore!
