Downtown's Westin Riverwalk has reopened its Zocca Cuisine D’Italia in completely renovated river-level digs. The restaurant, which specializes in Texas-inspired Italian dishes, also has appointed Ron Mays as its executive chef, according to officials with the hotel chain.
After the three-month-long reno, the restaurant now features an indoor-outdoor bar with river views that features a walk-up component for River Walk visitors to grab tipples on the go. The revamped space also boasts new walled-in booths, cushioned banquette seating areas and what management is calling a “vino-inspired private dining room.” Other aesthetic details of the updated open concept include gold accents, fresco murals and fragmented stone.
