Zinc, located in the heart of historic downtown San Antonio and only a stone's throw from the river walk, invites you to experience the finer things life has to offer. <br><br>Zinc serves wines from all corners of the globe with an emphasis on champagne and domestic varietals. Zinc also boasts an extensive menu offering fine import cigars, vintage ports, specialty cocktails and caringly prepared wine-friendly cuisine.<br><br>Take some time out of your day to relax and allow your five senses to be aroused in our century old building. Zinc resonates the quintessential essence of days gone by when martinis were singular and conversations plural. French inspired with metallic bar tops and bistro design, Zinc offers casual comfort and classic style with eclectic southwestern overtones.<br><br>Zinc's wine menu is designed to suit the needs of any palate with hundreds of bottles and a plethora of "by the glass" offerings. Peter Fitzgerald, resident sommelier and host, is always at your service for expert wine navigation or a sociable chat.<br><br>The bar area is alive with conductivity as talented bartenders perform their mixology act under the soft lights of friendly conversation. The adjacent lounge area with modern leather sofas and rustic wood floors provides a foundation where friends banter and romantics build fires.<br><br>Chef Nelson H Gonzales II has painstakingly created a menu of wine-friendly fare consisting of old world hors d'oeuvres and regionally inspired tapas. From baked Texas goat cheese with calamatta olives to fresh chocolate covered strawberries, the menu caters to the diversity of the food enthusiasts.<br><br>Charles Court, at the rear of Zinc, is a truly serene gathering place for a rare outdoor experience. The private, spacious courtyard makes for a quiet sanctuary from the clatter of downtown city streets. Fish laden fountains, warm brick, lush tropical foliage and vibrant colors conger images of Spanish villas and plantation style warmth.

Overpriced, overcrowded and impossible to get served.
