Good to know

What should I wear?

Black and gold, cocktail attire. The terrace is heated, but bring a layer if you’re sitting outside.

Is there an age requirement?

The party and open bar are for guests 21 and over. Valid ID is checked at the rooftop entrance.

How long is the early dinner?

Early dinner runs 5:30 to 7:30 PM. Your table is needed back at 7:30 PM for the grand dinner, and the party is not included.

How does the grand dinner night run?

Dinner starts at 8:30 PM, and the five courses finish by 11 PM. Drinks during dinner are your paired pours. At 11 PM the party begins: open bar until 2 AM, with cocktail service at your table or straight from the Z-Bar. Your table is yours all night.

Can I book a table for fewer people?

Tables are sold for their full number of seats, so a table for four needs four tickets. Bar seats are sold individually.

Do you have vegetarian and vegan options?

Yes, a full vegetarian and vegan tasting menu: five courses at the grand dinner, three at the early dinner. Choose one of its entrées when you book, and tell us about any allergies.

What’s the cancellation policy?

Tickets are prepaid. They’re refundable until December 15, 2026. After that, you can transfer them to another name until December 29.

Are tax and service included?

Prices are per guest and don’t include sales tax or service charge, which are added at checkout.

Can I add upgrades?

Yes, when you book. Add the Reserve Pairing for $75 per guest, or a caviar supplement on the first course for $35.

Where is Zenita?

On the roof of the Aztec Hotel, 201 East Commerce Street, San Antonio, TX 78205. Check in at the hotel lobby and take the elevator to the rooftop.

Can I stay the night?

Yes. Book a room at the Aztec Hotel on Marriott.com, so you’re only an elevator ride from bed. Rooms and NYE tickets are booked separately.

See you on the roof

Seats are limited, and every table is sold whole. Reserve yours before they’re gone.
