The Super Bowl festivities have begun and there has already been a sneak peak of the stadium and some of the food and beverage options curated specifically for fans attending the big game.

Many host cities, if not all, tailor their specialty food options to represent their city, and in Las Vegas, there is so much to offer for inspiration. Julia Lombardi said, “Vegas is known for three things… sports, music and hospitality.” As the Vice President of Hospitality and Strategy for Silver & Black Hospitality, it is Lombardi’s job to guide all of the food and beverage creations leading up to the big game.

Specifically when it came to choosing the food for inside the stadium and at the sponsored tailgates around the stadium, two factors came into play. Silver & Black Hospitality wanted to “up the ante.” Being in Vegas, they wanted to draw inspiration from and celebrate the city’s restaurants and nightlife. The other factor, value for all fan preferences. This means making sure there are those “wild” items and “the $2.99 hot dog on our stadium house deals menu.” Lombardi wants to make sure there are options for everyone on the menus and said the “Vegas factor” definitely plays a role in the food selections.

For all fans, there will be four unique menu items found all over the stadium… Loaded Wagyu Hot Dog, Surf and Turf Nachos, Ultimate Seafood Stuffed Potato and a Grilled Donut Sundae Sundae. These items can be found all around the stadium, but there are other unique plates and dishes in specific locations.

Lombardi said fans in the premium clubs and suites can expect to see so much more contributing to their “ultimate Vegas steakhouse experience” in the suites and clubs. A few of the suite specific menu items include seafood towers, carved Wagyu, sushi and “an all-day favorite, chicken and waffles.”

With the Super Bowl being such a big event and Silver & Black being the hospitality partner for the big game, it takes an army to make sure everyone attending can get what they need. Lombardi said there will be over 2,000 team members helping to deliver “world-class hospitality” from chefs and suite attendants to concession managers and mixologists.
