Super Bowl attracts new businesses to Glendale

Several new businesses have opened in Glendale just in time for the Pro Bowl and Super Bowl crowds.

In the past month, two new restaurants have opened at Westgate Entertainment District, near Loop 101 and Glendale Avenue. The center is an easy walk from University of Phoenix Stadium, where the Pro Bowl kicks off at 6 p.m. today and the New England Patriots and Seattle Seahawks battle Feb. 1 in the Super Bowl XLIX.
