About

Gardens Restaurant and Catering, a restaurant in the Dallas, Texas area, features a garden-style venue for a couple’s wedding day. This venue features natural and outdoorsy spaces as well as a classic banquet area for a couples’ wedding. It can be found in the Fort Worth Botanic Garden, approximately 30 minutes from the Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport.

Facilities and Capacity
This romantic venue sits on 110 acres of beautiful gardens and landscaping. The entire venue, with the restaurant and outdoor deck used together, holds 250 guests for a couple’s wedding. The restaurant has three main rooms to choose from in addition to an outdoor deck and the garden areas. The Main Room, with a wedding capacity of 90 guests, features floor-to-ceiling windows and stone walls between the panels of glass. The coffered ceiling gives off its own light in varying brightnesses, and the polished stone underfoot makes for an excellent dance floor. The Board Room is a more traditional space. It seats up to 50 guests and features brown carpeting to match the polished wooden mantel of the room’s fireplace. The Mural Room, as the name suggests, has walls covered in colorful garden murals. This banquet hall room has a flat cathedral ceiling and and a large window at one end of the space. The garden mural includes many shades of green to depict scenes of elegant gardens with trees, shrubbery, and pathways. A tile floor invites guests to put on their dancing shoes, and a doorway leads directly to The Board Room, so that the two spaces may be used together seamlessly. The Covered Deck is a low wooden deck with a matching railing. Overhead, a curved glass roof shades couples and guests from the sun and rain. This space seats 45 guests and is surrounded by plant life. Another beautiful outdoor space at this location is the Japanese Gardens. Couples can use this space for their wedding where they’ll find winding paved patio paths, ornate plant life, and unique pavilion areas.

Wonderful!

Rebecca was always willing to work with me. She was realistic about what would work in the space and the best way to set up the venue for our wedding, which was extremely helpful! They are changing venues on 01/27/19, so the management for the gardens restaurant will change soon. I can't speak to the new management, but the venue itself is beautiful! If I were you I would at least look at the Oaks Event Center in Burleson, which is where the old catering company is moving to.

Our mother's celebration of life ceremony was beautifully executed and the venue was stunning! The rent a frog valet staff were very accommodating. The restaurant staff help us set up photos, photo albums and projectors for video presentation. The rooms were spacious and guests had a memorable time. The food was fantastic and staff even helped box up leftovers. I know my mom was smiling down from heaven!!! Rebecca saw every little detail was handled. Elizabeth worked the function and it went perfectly! The entire staff were friendly, courteous and extremely professional. We would highly recommend this venue for any function!!! Thanks again from our family!

The Gardens Restaurant is very, very nice! The staff is super nice! The room where my daughter's bridal shower was held is ample enough for 50 people. We had a real nice day.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
