Raiders fans, rejoice. Your game day grub options just got a whole lot better. This month, WSKY Bar & Grill touches down across the street from Allegiant Stadium with more than 600 parking spots, a wrap-around outdoor patio, over 40 screens and a food and drink menu that could put even a seasoned tailgater to shame.
“The stadium opened but there hasn’t really been a stadium district around the property, so we’re going to become domino one,” says Bryan Breeden, vice president of marketing and advertising of Terrible’s, which owns the WSKY tavern brand.
The 12,000-square-foot space is the largest WSKY to date, dwarfing its Inspirada and Warm Springs locations by doubling their size. The 24-hour restaurant, with its cozy fireplace and floor-to-ceiling garage doors, can accommodate around 780 people, with a private back room used to absorb overflow.
Executive chef and Hell’s Kitchen Season 5 contestant LA Limtiaco heads up the menu, with an assist from chef Gabriel Melchor. “I’m from the Bay Area. I grew up my whole life with Raider games, 49ers games, so I focused on what I used to eat at those games,” says Limtiaco. “We went with what I’m calling Cajun-Asian fusion. We have a bibimbap bowl on the menu, stadium garlic fries—we actually took those and threw them on top of a pizza.”
WSKY also serves po’ boys and burgers like the Oh Shootz Brah Gah. “We took Portuguese sausage, pineapples (and) Maui onion and we made a jam out of it. Then we’re putting that over an eight-ounce Wolverine Patty,” she says. “That’s also got purple slaw on it so it’ll take you on that ride, that sweet and salty ... vinegar, acidy sort of thing.”
“Quick eats” menus also have been curated for fans rushing to and from games, and they’ll pair well with the tavern’s cocktail and beer options. Parking is free except on game days.
