The Oasis On Lake Travis

My first time here and I loved it! We stopped here after our hike and it was perfect… crowded but perfect! We had drinks and dessert and sat outside overlooking Lake Travis and thoroughly relaxed and enjoyed ourselves. Service was fast and amazing which was surprising with the sheer size of this place! We will definitely be back!

Most people are probably here for the view (beautiful especially at sunset: but it does get busy around that time), but the food is honestly pretty good. Their coke-marinated chicken and enchiladas were all delicious!

Unique place located in a unique site, with a unique views of the Colorado River, and about 16 miles from Austin!
Their food comes in good portions at a reasonable price. Variety of drinks are available at their main bar, which gives you a good reason to go explore the place and get distracted taking pictures of one of their many whimsical sculptures.
Definitely recommend this place for a quick bite and drinks or simply stroll around and capture a couple of pics!

Visiting and eating at The Oasis is an experience everyone should have when they visit the Austin area. It is snuggled into a hill overlooking the tantalizing waters of Lake Travis, allowing you to soak in the beauty of your surroundings.

Whether you are outside enjoying the warm Texas sun or inside, thanking your lucky stars for air-conditioning, there is always something to behold. The inside of The Oasis boasts gorgeous stained glass windows, intricate (and a little eccentric) wall and lighting decor, and, of course, a view of Lake Travis regardless of where you are sitting.

They have an array of food items that are absolutely delicious. I highly suggest, along with your entree(s), you go all out with an appetizer, a fruity cocktail (or two), and dessert. You can go casual with family and friends or make it a romantic date night. Either way, you will not regret it.

Service was amazing. We went on a Saturday around 11:30 a.m. and we were promptly seated. Jackson was very attentive. The outdoor bathrooms had not been unlocked so I walked all over the place before being directed inside to use the bathroom. The food was good, but a bit overpriced. Chips and salsa aren’t free. You pay about 7 bucks for bottomless chips and salsa. Chicken quesadillas were about 25 bucks and about the same for the beef enchilada platter. I’m sure you’re paying more for the experience as this place is massive. If you don’t like bugs flying around then it’s best to sit inside. There were tiny bugs flying around and my daughter saw a few in her cup so she lost her appetite after that. Suggestion for the owner, lid covers for the plastic cups. I will definitely be back, but would dine inside if my daughter accompanies me again. 🙂
