Luxury pet-friendly hospitality expands with a thoughtfully crafted canine dining experience in downtown San Antonio
Downtown San Antonio’s iconic The Gunter Hotel is redefining what it means to be truly pet-friendly. The historic hotel has officially launched a chef-curated Dog Menu at its signature restaurant, Jots. In addition, they are inviting canine companions to enjoy an elevated dining experience alongside their owners.
Now available for purchase, the new menu allows guests to bring their dogs to Jots. Here, they can treat them to thoughtfully prepared dishes made with the same care, creativity, and quality as the restaurant’s human offerings. Jots is located in the heart of downtown San Antonio. It is just steps from the River Walk. Moreover, Jots is embracing a more inclusive vision of hospitality. Specifically, it is a vision that welcomes every member of the family, including four-legged guests.
A Thoughtful Dog Menu Designed with Care
Dubbed “Benson & Friends Favorites,” the new Jots Dog Menu features nourishing, recognizable ingredients crafted to delight canine palates while supporting wellness. Each dish reflects the hotel’s commitment to intentional dining and elevated guest experiences. This is true no matter how many legs your companion has.
“Pet-friendly travel has evolved, and today’s guests are looking for experiences that truly welcome their dogs, not just accommodate them,” said Jiwon Choi, Gunter Hotel Owner and Managing Director at Axle Capital. “With this new menu from Jots, we’re extending our culinary philosophy to our four-legged guests, offering a dining experience that feels just as intentional and special.”
What’s on the Jots Dog Menu
The chef-curated selection offers a well-rounded dining experience for dogs, from hearty meals to lighter treats:
-
Honey’s Hill Country Breakfast – A savory blend of short rib, chuck, and brisket served with farm-fresh eggs
-
Nori’s Seattle Treat – Salmon paired with rice and green beans
-
Benson’s Chicken Delight – Made with locally sourced chicken
-
Canine Crudité – A fresh, vegetable-forward mix of apples, carrots, and green beans

Each dish is designed with canine wellness in mind while still feeling indulgent and special.
