Returning
Blue Line Pizza: This Bay Area-born pizzeria with a name that pays tribute to Chicago will again fill up the Faithful with both deep-dish and thin-crust pizza, CEO Angela Pace says. Choose from pepperoni, cheese or the classic combo, with Italian sausage, mushrooms, bell peppers, onions, mozzarella and marinara sauce.
The Chairman: Curtis Lam’s popular Asian street food truck will create its signature bao stuffed with miso-glazed pork belly and pickled daikon, along with several others: karaage chicken, spicy chicken, miso-cured tofu and Coca-Cola braised pork. A Levi’s exclusive loads that Cola pork atop fries.
ChurWaffle: The Burgess Brothers of Sacramento will make chicken with cornbread waffles, topped with peach maple syrup; mini waffles with strawberries; and spicy corndogs. They’ll be pouring Rufus Burgess Golden Ale, a tribute to their great-great-grandfather, who migrated to Gold Rush country in 1849.
Iguanas: The Orozco family’s restaurants are known for their 5-pound Burritozilla. At the stadium, however, they will be wrapping carne asada, beans, rice, cheese, guacamole, sour cream and salsa in a more manageable “super” burrito size. The menu also includes loaded Zilla fries and nachos.
Konjoe Burger Bar: Joey Camacho’s local enterprise, a Santa Clara fave with a location at the Monticello complex across town, will be back with burgers made with California-sourced beef, artisanal buns and local produce and topped with Konjoe sauce. Fries too.
Sandi’s Soul Food: Santa Clara chef-caterer Sandra Dailey and her team will make seafood jambalaya and gumbo (both with chicken andouille), macaroni and cheese (with or without bacon), and new this year, Cajun corn on the cob. Dessert time calls for her signature peach and berry cobbler cups.
Starbird: These folks helped launch the local fried chicken mania back in 2014 in Sunnyvale, then expanded throughout the Bay Area. This season they’ll be serving crispy chicken tenders with two housemade sauces and seasoned fries, both cooked in non-GMO rice bran oil, and fresh lemonade.
Tony G’s: Pizza king Tony Gemignani’s Slice House will be back at multiple Levi’s locations. In the rotation will be the pizza he created specially for Niners fans, Tony’s Tailgate, with meatballs, pepperoni, salami, bacon, ricotta, mozzarella and green onions.
