For more than 35
years, the 750-foot-tall Tower of the Americas has offered residents and
tourists of San Antonio, Texas, the most breathtaking view of the Alamo
City - visitors dine at the Tower's revolving restaurant or enjoy the
scenery from the observation deck. Now, Landry's Restaurants, Inc. has
taken the experience to a whole new level. Among the improvements are an
upscale eatery, banquet facility and a Texas-themed 4-D, multi-sensory
theater.

pure dining pleasure with a delectable menu and sophisticated
atmosphere. The new restaurant, which boasts 360-degree, revolving
vistas, seats up to 250 people and has space for 75 more at the bar.
- On the observation deck, a banquet and
meeting space has been added to accommodate a wide range of events. It
is a premier location for black-tie galas, business meetings, weddings
and more.
- The Skies Over Texas is a
sophisticated ride that takes visitors on a high-flying trip across
the Lone Star State, the 4-D theater zooms in on such scenes as a
Friday-night high school football game and working
up-close-and-personal with a space shuttle at NASA and more.
- A ground-level café and retail shop
give visitors more ways to enjoy their day. Additional amusements,
attractions and food vendors greet guests at the base of the Tower.
