13 local restaurants part of Frost Bank Center’s Spurs Culinary Residence Program

The Dogfather and Smokin’ Bros BBQ among the restaurants serving food this season

SAN ANTONIO – Thirteen San Antonio restaurants are showcasing menus across the Frost Bank Center during Spurs games this season, according to a team news release.

The restaurants were formally announced in October, following a call for applications earlier this year.

Initially open to 12 restaurants, the program expanded to include one more business.

“This program is designed to connect fans with the flavors and traditions that make San Antonio so unique,” said Kevin Barker, associate director culinary experience at Spurs Sports & Entertainment (SS&E). “Every game becomes a chance to experience a new part of our city’s food scene, and expanding the lineup means even more opportunities to celebrate local talent.”

As part of the program, the restaurants will collaborate with the Spurs and Aramark to sell dishes at two locations in the Frost Bank Center during the 2025-2026 season.

Each restaurant will take turns serving dishes for up to nine home games. For the upcoming season, the two concession locations will be located in Section 4 outside the Southwest Charter Club and in Section 217 on the balcony level, next to the H-E-B Fan Zone.

These are the restaurants serving up food this season:

Eleven of the participating restaurants were selected by SS&E, while the final two — Sari-Sari Filipino Restaurant and The Dogfather — were chosen in a fan vote.

The program also includes professional development opportunities led by Spurs Sports and Entertainment. The program is in its fifth season.
