They own all of the restaurants on the Kemah Boardwalk on Galveston Bay too. (This guy is a Donald Trump wannabe without the bad hair. )
Also with the price of admission to the Tower, you get to see a show called "Texas 4-D". You watch the show wearing 3-D glasses with the fourth dimension being able to feel certain things happening to you like the breeze from the helicopter blades. I won't spoil it for you but it's really cool. :thumbsup: I'll go back next time I'm in San Antonio.
My wife and I and our five kids ate there over the summer. The food was delicious. I had venison. I'd get it again! The total bill was over $200, but that was for five people. Yes, I believe Landry's took over. I'm from the town in Louisiana where the original Landry's was built.
